Biography:
Possessing incredible size and strength, Yujiro Higuchi made for a
perfect prospect to enter pro-wrestling, resulting in widely-respected
instructor Ryo Suzuki recruiting him for his dojo. In 2003, Yujiro made
Pro-Wrestling BETA, along with its promotional successor CRIMSON, his
main battleground, teaming with Razan (Akuma) Toyota. After forming a
seemingly promising team; which included fruitful excursions to the
United States, the two had a bitter split that resulted in Yujiro's
exile from CRIMSON.
Yujiro eventually rebuilt himself under the tutelage of Pro-Wrestling DYNAMITE's Tatsumichi Akamatsu, and emerged as a top level star for the company. Along with Akamatsu, Yujiro formed a powerful tag team with Riki Ichiro, which continues in KJPW today.
While sometimes labeled as an underachiever, Yujiro Higuchi is a dangerous opponent capable of staggering any foe. While lacking the finesse of some wrestlers, Yujiro attacks with an uncanny aggression not seen by most wrestlers his size.
