Biography: Yuku Shiro is the little sister of Raoh, Ken, Toki and Kayoken (Twins), Jagi, and daughter of Master Ryuken Shiro teacher of the art of Hokuto no Shinken, a combination of pressure points and bone-breaking techniques combined with high impact moves. Hokuto Shinken ("North star" God Fist) originated in China 2000 years ago. Due to its extreme lethality, it is only taught from father to son. Only one son can inherit the full knowledge; in a dispute over succession, the losers must have their "fists sealed" (removal of memories, or destruction of their hands).
Hokuto Shinken provides its practitioners with many abilities; most notable is knowledge of pressure points. Striking the correct points can cause such effects as paralysis, blindness, and total bodily destruction. In addition, a normal human can only use 30% of her natural abilities; training in Hokuto Shinken can give access to ones full abilities. The inner secret of the art is an ability to learn the techniques of an opponent after a single battle. Yuku is the only known woman to have studied and mastered the art to its full capability. She is known to many as the woman who set the trend for all female wrestlers out there, the first woman to hold a male heavyweight title, the most extreme female wrestler to ever step foot in a wrestling ring, and to one mother.
Once the innocent doe eyed young woman who first made her debut in the WCWF, Yuku has become a seasoned female veteran with veins filled with ice water. Where very few women in the business dare venture Yuku rushes head first kicking the doors down. A former CWU Tag, Featherweight, and Blue Collar champion Shiro proves that she can hold her own in division strictly competed for by men, but what clearly put Yuku over the top as a trendsetter was her victory over then former ScW Heavyweight Champion the Dawg, when she soundly defeated him in a dumpster match. She not only closed the chapter in her heated feud against the Dawg for orchestrating the abduction of her daughter in the CWU, but it made her the first woman to ever hold a male held heavyweight title.
One of her hardest fights would however be with her former husband Scott Smith, after she chose to divorce him due reasons of neglect. There would lead to a heated feud, which would lead to a strap match at the IEW PPV No Return where armed with the knowledge that Scott Smith was actually behind the abduction of her daughter in the CWU along with the Dawg, Shiro would hammer her husband into submission soundly defeating him that night for the world to see. Yuku competed in the newly resurrected IEW (International Empire Wrestling: GWA) under the guidance of the 4-time WCWF/FCW heavyweight champion Pro-Pain due to a match/wager she lost to him (See IEW PPV: Evolution).
Though unhappy by the outcome it is clear that under the instructions of the legendary Gas Man that Yuku may learn and develop into the legend she possibly can be in her sport. Often times overlooked by her male counterparts as a non-threat regardless of her accomplishments Shiro bided her time waiting for the opportunity where she can shock the world one more time, and solidify her claim to being the best by capturing her second ever heavyweight title. Yuku Shiro signed with Divas Unleashed, an all women’s wrestling federation, walking in as a force of nature. Many who didn’t believed the hype quickly learned that Yuku was not one to be messed with. With in months she captured her first title within the Divas Unleashed the DU Stripped title, which is the second highest title within the DU.
Later on she would captured the Divas Unleashed Tag titles with her then at the time wife Tara Lee Shiro, she would eventually lose the Stripped title, but would go on to dominate the DU Tag division for almost half a year as Tag Champions. In the IEW, Shiro would set records capturing FOUR titles being the first woman to hold titles in three different divisions. First woman to hold the IEW Tag Team titles twice, first woman IEW Featherweight Champion, and first woman IEW Solid Steel Champion; eventually the IEW would close for a hiatus, and Yuku would head down to Badass Championship Wrestling, and compete for some time till it’s closing. Yuku for the time decided to remain just with Divas Unleashed. There she became the Dark conscious of DU known as the Lady Dark Fist terrifying and dominating her competition in one stroke. Yuku and Tara would remain unstoppable as Divas Unleashed Tag Team Champion until the fate full day the DU's biggest PPV ever Forsaken Destiny, where they would lose the title to a new rookie team know as Pleasure and Pain a.k.a Faith and Hope Clarkson.
Apart from her career in Divas Unleashed, Yuku took an offer by N.W.E President Chris Huerta to return to the world of male professional wrestling competing against her male counterparts for a shot at the N.W.E Heavyweight title, with a new look, and an even more seasoned veteran persona Yuku made known that she was all business. Now with the untimely closing of the N.W.E Shiro deciding not to leave just yet signed on to the UWN Underground Wrestling Network, with her shot at the World title, and another step closer to becoming a legend in this sport.
Back in DU, refusing to take the loss to whore amateurs as she's call them, Shiro would soon "KILL" her Lady Dark Fist, and be reborn as the Lady Devil Fist...her mission...the "purification" of the DU, and the World for female professional wrestling. Believing she possesses the ancient art of the DEMON FIST, Shiro will stop at nothing to ensure that her vision is created, and she plans to start with Divas Unleashed itself...even if it means burning it to the ground for it to RISE again. With the tag titles now behind her...Shiro has her eyes LOCKED on the Unleashed title, and anyone who possesses it.
Yuku’s dream would be realized when she would capture the Divas Unleashed Championship on August 28th 2004 against the current champion Kaci Russell in a fatal four way match. During that time of successful title defenses Yuku’s inner battle with her demon self would come to a fatal head where only one would stand alone. On November 28th 2004 Shiro would battle long time arch-rival Star a former DU Champion to defend her championship, but no longer as the Lady Devil Fist, but as the Lady Fist. In one of the most historic and brutal battles in DU history Shiro and Star would find to the end pulling out all stops. In the end Yuku would lose the championship to Star, but win back her soul in the end.
Shiro would soon take her leave of Divas Unleashed a month later competing under the umbrella of BWI Battlefield Wrestling Industries (originally Underground Wrestling Network) under one of it’s banners known as Superior Wrestling Alliance full time. There she would spend the time building back her career and name as the Lady Fist which her persona the Lady Devil Fist almost destroyed. There the persona of the Lady Devil Fist and the scandal she cause was washed away by Yuku no-nonsense clean cut battle ready persona which would make her the first and only 3-Time female World Heavyweight Champion, 2-Time World Tag Champion (Last Tag Champion before close with partner Angel (Reign of Fire), and first female American Champion. Along with being apart of some of the most historical matches the company had ever produced Shiro had done what she set out to do, becoming one of the most respected and feared female wrestlers in this business, an Icon, and soon to be Legend.
Currently Yuku Shiro still competes in Divas Unleashed, Hardkore World as the reigning and undefeated Hardkore World Women's Champion, and Ultimate Championship Wrestling as their reigning Women's Champion and World Junior Heavyweight Champion.
Having dropped the UCW Women's title to Lynn Brewster during a 4-way match, and finally the World Junior Heavyweight Championship to her yet again at the final UCW show, Yuku once again had her eyes set on becoming Divas Unleashed Champion once again.
In a fatal fourway, the then reigning champion Lilith defended her championship against Katrina, Tiger Lily and Yuku Shiro at Nuclear Pussy 4. After a long and hard-hitting match, Yuku Shiro pinned Lilith to claim a second reign as the Unleashed Champion.
