He learned the basics at Osaka Pro Wrestling as a child and debuted in 2015 as the first homegrown talent of Dotonbori Pro Wrestling. He built a strong reputation in the Kansai indie scene, winning the WDW Singles and Tag titles. In 2024, he began competing in NOAH’s "LIMIT BREAK" series and joined the re-formed RATEL’S in September. He showed immediate promise, advancing in the "N Innovation Tournament" and challenging for the GHC Junior Tag titles. In early 2025, the unit evolved into "Jounetsu RATEL’S" with the addition of Manabu Soya and Saxon Huxley. In August, he stepped in for the injured YO-HEY to face NJPW star Hiromu Takahashi; though he lost, his performance was valiant. Shortly after, he left the unit and currently competes as a "lone wolf" in the junior division. Outside the ring, he is highly active on social media and organized a series of "monthly one-match shows" to mark his 10th anniversary in 2025. He remains a key figure to watch in the future of NOAH's junior scene.
