Background Information:
In 1993, most of the wrestling world was focused on its already established superstars, most of whom were known for their large muscles and slow, methodical in-ring style.

A small, masked wrestler from Japan, then 19 years old, would not serve much notice in 1993. But by the time 1994 had rolled around, not only would the wrestling world know him, but the wrestling world would be changed by him.

Getting his start in the dojos of Japan while a teenager, Tsunami entered the CSWA at the age of 19 as part of a talent exchange program. Tsunami soon captured the little-regarded CSWA Light-Heavyweight Title, but lifted the title to a new prestige as fans immediately took to his aerial tactics.

Tsunami would attract the attention of "Hardcore" Jimmy Valienti-- a sports agent who had long tried to acquire talent in the CSWA. Valienti signed Tsunami to the contract and soon began marketing him as "The Posterboy of the Hardcore Generation"-- claiming that his highflying ways and brawling tactics would change the traditional styles of the CSWA. Tsunami soon became a presence on almost every CSWA card, wrestling two or three matches a card, while the incessant hype machine of Valienti helped garner him more attention. But to most in the industry, 'Nami didn't need it-- he frequently stole the show, either by hitting some move never seen before or by performing a hellacious act of violence.

One match, in particular, cemented Tsunami's status as a wrestler while unoficially bringing in a new era of wrestling to the CSWA. Tsunami challenged "Devastating" Mike Randalls-- who was widely hailed as the best wrestler in the world at that time-- and wrestled him to the limits in a 35-minute match that saw tables broken, television cameras smashed, men flying off the ropes into the crowd and busting each other apart. The match attracted rave reviews from wrestling critics, and also drew the attention of many of the sport's younger stars who copied the style of these wrestlers and this style of fighting. Truly, Tsunami had helped usher in a hardcore generation.

Not stopping there, Tsunami kept rising up the rankings, eventually getting a CSWA World Title match against JT Tyler. In one of the bigger upsets in the CSWA's history, Tsunami won the title, becoming the youngest and smallest CSWA World Champion in history.

Losing the title soon after, 'Nami then partnered up with WildStar-- another young wrestler whose wrestling style differed from the typical American wrestler of the time. Their tag team, then called The Suicide Squad, would soon become consistent champions or contenders for any title of note for the next seven years.

Tsunami pretty much became a tag team specialist the past few years, only wrestling in "special attractions" singles matches, usually against other high-flyers or hardcore wrestlers. Recently, without much success, he turned on his partner WildStar and formed the "New Suicide Squad" with young wrestling "The Warhorse Kid" Johnny Lang. Tsunami still remains a threat to win anytime he wants and is still regarded as one of the most innovative, destructive and anarchic forces in the sport.
