Yasuraoka debuted for Super World of Sports (SWS) in January 1992, but the promotion closed down a few months later. He joined WAR, but also appeared in New Japan Pro Wrestling, Kitao Dojo, Wrestle Dream Factory, and World Championship Wrestling. On June 20, 1999, Yasuraoka announced he was retiring after seven years in the ring, forcing him and his partner, Tomohiro Ishii, to vacate the WAR International Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Championship. His last match was held nine days later, losing to Masaaki Mochizuki.
Retirement
A motorcycle enthusiast before entering pro wrestling, Yasuraoka became a motorcycle mechanic after ending his wrestling career.
