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.

“I began my editorial career with the presidency of Mr. Adams, and my principal object was to render his administration all the assistance in my power. I flattered myself with the hope of accompanying him through [his] voyage, and of partaking in a trifling degree, of the glory of the enterprise; but he suddenly tacked about, and I could follow him no longer. I therefore waited for the first opportunity to haul down my sails.”
—William Cobbett (1762–1835)
