"Explo-meow" by Jun Akiyama

When it comes to the glorious world of wrestling, what immediately comes to mind are the rivalries, the moves and even the memes. However, it can be hard to imagine the persona outside the ring. Japanese pro wrestler Jun Akiyama has been making an effort to change that. Showing off his hobbies, he has been making waves by revealing his love of animals, and how this has translated into attempts in learning how to talk to cats. The result of this has been a possibly tongue in cheek YouTube channel in which he documents his attempts to communicate. It promises a new upload every Saturday, but for now, here's his first encounter with a cat called Bucky. Wrestlers: maybe they're not just like us, but they sure do have some fascinating interests.
