Drawing on his own background in Greco-Roman and Brazilian jiu-jitsu, Bryn explores how local wrestlers bring storytelling and character work to the ring. He talks about a rare opportunity to interview Japanese wrestling legend Jaguar Yokota, once hailed as one of the best in the world, during her trip to Taiwan. Tune in to hear Bryn’s thoughts on why fans are drawn to the drama, choreography, and heart behind Taiwan’s uniquely homegrown scene.
