My thoughts:
Holy Shit! A japanese legend was in my CITY and arrived at an airport 20 minutes away from my house and I had no idea. Also WTF with the religion thing. It's a bit over drive IMO

Overdrive how so? If he's happy who cares? He is still a legend.

Nevermind. I'm actually happy, because I can proudly say that I share the same religion with a Japanese and Wrestling legend. I originally thought that he converted to Islam because he thought that the terrorists would kill him because he was not 'Muslim' LOL, but srsly, with Pakistan, it wouldn't be surprising :/
