At one time Chono was considered one of the greatest wrestlers to ever come out of Japan, and his role as part of the nWo's Japanese contingent was very prominent. For those that may not be aware, Chono was trained by the likes of the late Stu Hart and Lou Thesz.

He competed as part of WCW for a few years, and would often travel to and from Japan since he was also competing as part of the New Japan Pro Wrestling promotion. Chono's role was to lead the nWo Japan faction and dominate there as much as they were dominating the North American market.

He captured multiple championships in Japan and was a big favourite.

Once WCW closed its doors, Chono returned to New Japan Pro Wrestling, and later wrestled with their rival AJPW. Chono still can be still seen competing today in Japan. He is a remarkable character and personality that is often not given his rightful place in the North American market.
