Matt 'Panda' Minnick: From Wrestling Fan to TikTok Sensation

So many of us, as men, have been built to program ourselves to just be like: I'm okay when we're a fucking wreck inside we as human beings and as men- and I'm not even just saying that in a sexist tone- just as men, we as human beings, as our nature, can sense when shit is wrong with another human being, if you sense that something is wrong, if you sense that somebody is needing help, do not let them give you no for a fucking answer and force them to get you help.
What happens when a professional wrestling fan from Flint, Michigan, takes on the world of TikTok? Meet Matt 'Panda' Minnick, whose life has been anything but ordinary since he began creating content on the popular platform.
