In the bullet pasted action spectacle ‘John Wick’ we see Keanu Reeves as a retired A-list hit man, who gets in trouble with some Russian gangsters. It doesn’t takes long before they wish they picked on someone else.

But one thing we haven’t considered this far is that Reeves trains under the same person as Joe Rogan – Rigan Machado.
