Professional wrestling career

Training and early career (1998–2003)

Perkins first began his training at the age of 13, training at a local lucha libre school in his hometown of Los Angeles, California.[1] Perkins debuted in January 1999 at the age of 14, under a mask as promoters felt he looked too young to be wrestling.[3][10] Initially, he wrestled under the ring name T.J. Perkins, utilising "Pinoy Boy" as a nickname.[10] In order to attend shows, he had to not attend school most Fridays.[1] He wrestled on independent cards in California, Nevada, Arizona, and Mexico during his first two years.

Japan and Mexico (2001–2011)

He began training at New Japan Pro Wrestling's L.A. Dojo in Los Angeles along with friends Ricky Reyes, Rocky Romero, and Bryan Danielson. They all made their debut in NJPW on the same Korakuen Hall card in October 2002, with Perkins debuting as the maskless "Pinoy Boy" T.J. Perkins. In NJPW, he holds the record of the youngest non-Japanese wrestler to compete for the promotion, at 18 years and 3 weeks old. At the age of 18 in 2003, following his third tour with NJPW, he was given the gimmick (character) of Puma, a masked character with similarities to Tiger Mask, and he began teaming with Tiger Mask IV.[10] Perkins stated the character was created due to perceived similarities between himself and the original Tiger Mask, Satoru Sayama, and the idea was that he would be the American version of Tiger Mask.[1][10]

In late May and early June 2011, Perkins, under the ring name TJP, took part in NJPW's Best of the Super Juniors tournament. After winning three of his eight matches in the round robin stage of the tournament, TJP finished seventh out of the nine wrestlers in his block and did not advance to the semifinals.[11]
