Career
In 1979, Goto joined a sumo stable, Kokonoe, but shortly afterwards he retired from sumo. Goto then joined All Japan Pro Wrestling in 1980 and moved to the US to pursue a career in wrestling.
In the 1980s, Goto wrestled mainly in the American southern states including Tennessee (CWA) and Florida (FCW), and sometimes wrestled as Ho Chi Winh, which was a gimmick based on the Vietnamese hero Ho Chi Minh, and married a female American wrestler named Despina Montagas.
Goto also wrestled in Puerto Rico around 1988.

Famous quotes containing the word career:
“The 19-year-old Diana ... decided to make her career that of wife. Today that can be a very, very iffy line of work.... And what sometimes happens to the women who pursue it is the best argument imaginable for teaching girls that they should always be able to take care of themselves.”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
“Whether lawyer, politician or executive, the American who knows what’s good for his career seeks an institutional rather than an individual identity. He becomes the man from NBC or IBM. The institutional imprint furnishes him with pension, meaning, proofs of existence. A man without a company name is a man without a country.”
—Lewis H. Lapham (b. 1935)
“In time your relatives will come to accept the idea that a career is as important to you as your family. Of course, in time the polar ice cap will melt.”
—Barbara Dale (b. 1940)
