Japanese Professional Wrestling. I can't think of another hobby that blurs the lines of its fan base between otaku game nerds, martial arts enthusiasts and just old fashioned wrestling fanatics...I love it! Here's Martin Kirby ( @MKirbyProEgo : IG & Twitter) who is a prominent fighter in the UK wrestling scene and now making a big splash in one of Japan's premier wrestling company, Dragon Gate. He just landed in Japan a little over a month ago and went straight to work; joining the traveling caravan with other Japanese & foreigner luchadors high flying from ring corners all over Japan. I was lucky to find some free time and talk about his life and passion of pro wrestling in the UK & Japan. Even for the uninterested, Martin's hard training and drive is a valuable testament to achieving your hopes and dreams internationally. It's hard to top that. For those of you who are slightly keen, suspend your beliefs and check out a Dragon Gate event. Why not?
