[edit] Career
He has worked for many Japanese federations: after graduating in the 9th Toryumon school class term, he debuted in 2002 in Turyumon Mexico with the gimmick of Small Dandy Fuji, a little version of the Japanese wrestler Don Fuji, teaming up with SUWAcito and Mini CIMA, forming the Mini CMAX stable; he continued using this gimmick during 2003 in Turyumon X. He joined Michinoku Pro Wrestling, originally as Michinoku Ranger Silver, later changing his name and gimmick to Rasse, which he currently uses. Rasse has never won a title, but gained a title shot for the Tohoku Tag Titles, teaming up with Shanao, and losing to Great Sasuke & Dick Togo, and lost the Final match for the Tohoku Jr. Heavyweight Title to Takeshi Minamino.
He currently wrestles also in HUSTLE, as HUSTLE Kamen Ranger Blue, helping the Kamen Rangers in their feud against the Monster Army.
Okimoto joined the newborn El Dorado, wrestling as Jumping Kid Okimoto, a masked character exclusive to the promotion.
