As you know, we love our wrestling heartthrobs, so for you wrestling fans, we've got a very special interview. Johnny Yuma is a mainstay on the SoCal independent wrestling scene. From his often humorous and innovative moves to his glorious glutes that just won't quit, it's easy to see why Johnny is a favourite of many. In this interview we go over how he got into wrestling, his time wrestling in Japan and if we'll ever get a chance to see him pose nude. Yes, you did read that correctly. He's wild, he's hot and he's happening and we hope you enjoy this interview.
1. When did you first get hooked on wrestling? Who were your favourites?
Yuma: "I always hated wrestling. Picked on my friends that liked it. Ruined their merch. I was a real jerk. But I never actually watched, and when I finally did I was completely blown away. It was Viscera vs Crash Holly. Watching a little guy go up against a human monster was insane to me. My immediate favorites were Viscera, Too Cool, Jericho, and Essa Rios."
2. How did you get your start in wrestling?
Yuma: "Right after high school, my parents got me an apartment in El Segundo, CA so I could attend UPW. My second week there John Cena ran class, despite being the WWE champ at the time! After 9 months there, I reluctantly moved back home and took a year hiatus that I hated. A school opened in San Diego and I jumped at the opportunity. Someone got hurt before their first show, and I got the spot, making my debut as the fat stoner surfer Johnny Mahalo!"
