Legendary star had an eventful albeit futile pro-wrestling career: he worked on the 1991 WrestleMania show at the Los Angeles Sports Arena, teaming with Tenryu to beat Demolition (Barry Darsow & Brian Adams).

At the time WWF had a working agreement with SWS, Tenryu’s group, owned by a billionaire far richer than Vince McMahon, so to make him happy, they had Tenryu & Kitao get a win over one of their top tag teams at WrestleMania.
