A man from Pasqua First Nation in Saskatchewan is making waves in the world of professional wrestling, but as even as his career takes off, he's keeping his roots close to his heart.
When Corey Cyr walks into a wrestling ring, he always carries the flag of Pasqua First Nation.
"It's extremely important to me and it's one of the ways that I'm trying to incorporate more of my culture into the wrestling world," said Cyr.
The 33-year old professional wrestler was born in B.C., but grew-up on Pasqua First Nation, located in Saskatchewan, about 65 kilometres northeast of Regina.
On Jan. 10, he stepped onto the international stage by debuting on All Elite Wrestling (AEW), one of the major players in the global wrestling market.
"They're currently the second-largest North American TV wrestling company behind the WWE, and I got to wrestle against Matt Hardy from the Hardy Boyz, who has been around for 25-plus years."
Cyr, who is better known as Sebastian Wolfe in the ring, fell in love with wrestling when he was only four years old.
