The Puroresu Legend started his career in 1991 for the same promotion he’s still wrestling for nowadays, New Japan Pro Wrestling.

He was a member of the famous New World Order (nWo) faction in WCW and also joined the nWo Japan stable in NJPW.

Midajah joined Ted Turner’s World Championship Wrestling in late 1999 and first showed up on WCW TV in early 2000 as one of the “nWo Girls”, 4 valets of the infamous nWo 2000 faction.
