Bio:
Kazuhiro spent his youth playing football, having dreams of playing in the Premier League. When it became apparent he wasn't going to even make the Japanese National U-18 team, it forced the youth to reevaluate his interest in sport.
He found his muse in Shootboxing, participating in the youth variant of the sport, where he was able to turn his Football skills into an outstanding repertoire of kicks and open hand strikes. Shortly before his professional debut, he suffered an ACL tear in training. During his rehab, he became acquainted with several wrestler who used his home gym to train.
Thus he fell in with professional wrestling. After spending several years in Japan, he has sought more international shores. Along the way he has picked up serviceable English, and a friendship with Graysie Parker, and a deep and strange love of American Rap music.
