How Mad Do You Have to Be to Start a Pro-Wrestling Company in Malaysia?

In a country where even dreaming to be a theatre performer is seen as something too unorthodox, one must be insane to ever realistically dream of becoming a pro-wrestler, what more, own a wrestling company, here in Malaysia. But that’s exactly what Ayez Shaukat Fonseka did. He joins us on the show to discuss how he found the courage to not only dream of becoming a pro-wrestler, but actually pursue it.
