He is probably the greatest fighter of our time. Professional wrestling is an age old art, that takes a lifetime to master and perfect, but not everyone gets it really. We’re sure all professional wrestling fans reading this, have been told to stop watching this ‘fake stuff’ by their friends at some point in their lifetime. A crying shame really!
