WWE Japanese wrestler perform wild stunt as he sets self on FIRE outside the streets of east London

WWE star Kota Ibushi was out to impress when he hit the streets of east London with a firework in his hand.
The world-famous Japanese wrestler was in Bethnal Green for a tag-team match at Resistance Gallery, but as you can see from the above video, the fight ended up outside.
The show, which was promoted by XWA, saw Ibushi and partner Gota Ihashi take on Cara Noir and Jimmy Havoc.

And after wowing fans in the ring, the foursome hit the streets of the East End, where they continued to brawl.
Havoc was choke-slammed onto a car as the action increased in intensity.
But it was Ibushi who stole the show when he jumped onto the roof of a Ford Focus and waved a flare around for his fans.

After firing red streaks into the sky, the Japanese wrestler then turned the flare on himself and set his own body alight.
Speaking to the Metro after the show, Ibushi admitted he was anxious his style wouldn't be well-received in the UK.
But after stunning fans with an unusual pyrotechnics display said it was all "very positive."
