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:
“I restore myself when I’m alone. A career is born in public—talent in privacy.”
—Marilyn Monroe (1926–1962)
“I doubt that I would have taken so many leaps in my own writing or been as clear about my feminist and political commitments if I had not been anointed as early as I was. Some major form of recognition seems to have to mark a woman’s career for her to be able to go out on a limb without having her credentials questioned.”
—Ruth Behar (b. 1956)
“Each of the professions means a prejudice. The necessity for a career forces every one to take sides. We live in the age of the overworked, and the under-educated; the age in which people are so industrious that they become absolutely stupid.”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
