Fred made the admission on Episode 4 of Dropkick DiSKussions, opening up about how he didn't cry about his release, but something that happened months later set him off.

Finn's a good friend of mine but Finn is also an ally who is representing the community - and a funny story... Not really funny story about Finn but when I got released from WWE, over two years ago, I wasn't really upset over it, nothing last forever. I always said, Michael Jordan can't play basketball forever. Not saying I'm Michael Jordan, but... You know, you know, he can't perform forever so when I got released, you know, it is what it is, I was already living out in California because I wanted to get into some acting and commercials.

But months later, at WrestleMania, WWE had finally embraced the LGBTQ movement but they did it on a straight guy, Finn. When I seen that the next day, this was at WrestleMania, the next day, Monday, I was devastated, man. I cried like a baby. I cried like a baby because I'd just been released and then they are finally embracing the LGBT movement but they are doing it with Finn. It broke my heart. I'm a grown man. 35 years old and I cried like a baby.

But, like I said, if it wasn't for me making that sacrifice, I don't think we would have been able to fully embrace the LGBTQ movement.
