In Part 2, Akki shares with Jenn & Doug stories from his early days of navigating the Japanese wrestling scene , how he ended up in Gatoh Move, what makes Japanese Pro Wrestling different from other wrestling scenes around the world, and how ChocoPro emerged (and excelled) out of the dark times at the start of the pandemic... and so much more!
