Sonya Deville is one member of the WWE female locker room who made history for a significant reason. She is the first lesbian female name working actively in WWE.
Since then the company has signed a couple of more such LGBTQ talent. Being a senior member, Deville was asked if she has communicated with them in an interview with Uproxx.com. She came up with a positive note saying the following,
“Yeah, for sure. Jake Atlas recently signed, and me and him have had a couple conversations via Instagram and stuff and he loves the new line, so I’m going to send him a bunch of stuff,” said Deville. “He’s been a super big supporter. I just think it’s so cool that there’s more of us now. When I got here, I was the only one and I was the only one for two, three years that I knew of. So, it’s really cool to see the unity.”

WWE has given Sonya Deville more chances to open up about her sexual preferences that led to raising awareness about the LGBTQ community. We have learned about her and her girlfriend during the bygone season of Total Divas on the E Network.
Then mainstream WWE superstars also came to her support when Finn Balor gathered LGBTQ people at WrestleMania 34 or Charlotte Flair used rainbow colors in her gear.

The partner of Mandy Rose seemed extremely grateful for these names coming up with support. She also spoke with WWE’s social resource team and stuff, to do more things like this.
This already made people more comfortable talking about the LGBTQ community, more, these days. In fact, once there was a plan to channelize such an angle on TV.
For years, Sonya Deville is teaming up with perhaps the most gorgeous female star of the current Women’s Division, Mandy Rose. At one point, it was hinted that Sonya was getting attracted to her partner.

This was supposed to be the beginning of the storyline between them who could play love interests to each other. Sonya Deville also discussed the plans which were eventually scrapped,
“So obviously, Mandy and I were upset momentarily. It was something that we really pushed for,” revealed Deville. “But never say never and I think that it’s definitely still a possibility that it will or could happen in the future. I think representation in different storylines and stuff like that is awesome. I think it’s good. There’s a lot of different ways you can do it. There’s not just one way to do it and it’s not just Mandy and I that have to do it.
“Obviously, we took a lot of time out and had a lot of meetings with GLAAD, and they were helping us write and direct the story. So, I hope we can get back to it one day. But yeah, I would like to see it also revealed in other storylines in the future too.” (courtesy wrestlingINC.com)
As you have seen in the recent past, WWE is moving from their restricted zones where we have seen a love angle between Lana and Liv Morgan. More of these are expected to make people easier with the homosexual scene. WWE has split Sonya Deville and Mandy Rose on SmackDown roster to get involved in a future feud.
