Singapore junior minister turns pro wrestler for a day
Foo Cexiang defeated an opponent with his version of the 'people’s elbow', a move made popular by wrestler Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson.
Singapore junior minister Foo Cexiang demonstrated his wrestling prowess at a community event, donning the role of a professional wrestler for a day, according to a social media video. The footage, shared by Channel News Asia, captured Foo engaging in a fight against two wrestlers during an event organized by the community club of his constituency, Tanjong Pagar.
In the video, Foo executed a clothesline on one opponent before using what appeared to be a variation of the "people's elbow" move, famously associated with wrestler Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, to defeat the second wrestler. Foo was appointed as a minister of state for the manpower and trade and industry ministries in July and currently represents the Tanjong Pagar Group Representation Constituency (GRC).
The wrestling bout was part of a broader community event that also featured elderly wrestlers participating in the recently launched H.U.N.C.L.E (Healthy Uncles who Network, drink Coffee, Learn and Exercise) program, which aims to support men aged 50 and above through activities such as fitness and social engagement.
