History: Raoh is the older brother of wrestler, Ken, Toki and Kayoken (Twins), Jagi, and Yuku Shiro (younger sister); master 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 his 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. Raoh Shiro a former UFC and Pit Master Champion in Japan traveled to Canada to the shores of the WCWF to settle a family dispute with his younger brother Ken Shiro. There in a brutal feud they settled their differences one on one inside a Hell in a Cell Steel Cage, which Raoh won. Raoh decided to make the WCWF his home, and compete. His presence was immediately felt as the massive giant took down anyone that got in his path. Raoh would enter the WCWF Extreme Division where he would capture two WCWF Extreme titles and have a memorable and bloody feud with his ex-stable mate of The Dark Riders (now brother-in-law) Scott "The Game" Smith, which Shiro basically dominated match after match.

Raoh at the time tag teamed with stable mate Devastation to form the powerful force of the Dark Riders. Big D unfortunately would leave to serve his country in the United Stated Navy, and Raoh would go on to reform the Dark Riders with ex-rival another 7 foot monster by the name of Charon. These two big Goliaths combined brought the WCWF tag division to its knees, and not only captured to titles, but went on to @IW worldwide PPV "Overflow" to compete with their counter part champions in the IEW, CWU, and GWF for the coveted @IW World Tag titles. The Dark Riders came out victorious being the first ever newly crowned @IW World Tag team champions in @IW history. Raoh went on that same year to capture and hold for a respectable title reign the WCWF North American title. Upon the sad closing of the @IW due to Black Friday, a man with out a federation Raoh left with his brother Ken and opened up a boxing gym in Mount Vernon, and competed in the WEBL boxing association as a bare-knuckle fighter. In early March of 2002, Shiro received word that the WCWF was open under the banner of the UWN (Unified Wrestling Network) under the new name Fallout Championship Wrestling (FCW). Raoh returned under that banner a now seasoned veteran, and FCW Tag Champion along with his partner Charon made his debut the FCW heavyweight division, there after a brief feud with Pro-Pain proved that he wasn't seasoned enough, and ventured to the FCW Intercontinental division. After dropping the FCW Tag titles, Charon would leave the FCW to go back to the reopening @IW. Raoh would stay in the FCW making it his home. After a brief and disturbing feud with his brother Ken, and basically the entire FCW, which he had betrayed at the time for the Sinister 7, Shiro would reform stable Lords of Darkness, with his former stable mate Devastation, R.M. Masters, Glimmer, and the Shinning. Raoh felt a part of him missing knew that in the end he needed his brother Ken Shiro in order to complete him. After a series of persuasions Ken reluctantly returned to the Lords of Darkness, and former the tag team with his brother Raoh known as "Fists of Blood". Now one of the top best tag teams in the FCW. After toiling in the IC division, Raoh not only captured the FCW Intercontinental title from at the time champion Texas Terror, but went on to defend and end 2002 as the FCW Intercontinental champion.

2003 would prove to be the year of Raoh the Conqueror, as he would prove to be the most dominant man in the GWA today. Shiro would go on not only to defend the FCW Intercontinental title in 2003, but to also capture 3 consecutive times in a row, as well as two more FCW Tag teams titles with his brother Ken. The Shiro brothers would prove that they are the most dominant tag team in probably the entire GWA, when they would defeat the current CWU/ACW Tag team champions Midnight Rising in a tag team titles match at the UWN's first Anniversary PPV. Shiro's might would soon be tested when he was challenged by a massive Juggernaut by the name of Anaconda the 8 foot tall 550 lb. monster would prove to be more than a match for Raoh has he defeated Shiro in their first encounter. The two giants would have many memorable battles, but Raoh would prove to be the most dominant of the two as he would not only defeat Anaconda on five different occasions, but also take two titles off of him as well, the Heritage title (now defunct), and the FCW Extreme making Shiro's title accomplishments in the GWA a total of twelve in all. As of late however Raoh feels that his peers and not the fans have not respected his accomplishments. Slowly but surely it appears the dark rage the Conqueror once showed in his debut may yet appear again in his guest to get him the respect he feels he deserves. Raoh has currently made a brief jump to the IEW while the FCW is on hiatus, currently still the FCW Extreme Champion (210 days and going) Shiro along with his brother Ken captured the IEW Tag titles from a rookie team known as the Extremists, having dropped the titles to the team of the Rollen Brothers on their first title defense two days later Raoh captured the IEW X-treme title from former champion Stewie making his title count a total of 14 as well as the only man to hold two active Extreme titles at the same time within the GWA. Raoh announced that after he drops the IEW X-treme title it will be his last time competing in any lower tier division, as he will make the permanent jump to the Heavyweight division. Raoh's time in the IEW would be cut short as he would return with his younger brother Ken to the FCW where they would once again defend their dormant titles. Raoh would soon drop the Extreme title, and have a short stint within the FCW Heavyweight division which would prove unsuccessful, he would drop down to the FCW Intercontinental Division and capture the title on two separate occasions making his IC title win a total of five and being the only man to do it. He would also set with his brother Ken the longest FCW Tag Championship title reign of a total 94 days. Raoh would try one more time to gain Heavyweight title gold, but that would be cut short due to the closing of the UWA.

Raoh would not be deterred as he traveled to the BWI (Battlefield Wrestling Industries) and compete under the SWA (Superior Wrestling Alliance) with Ken. The very first night of his debut Raoh would capture the SWA Extreme title due to the 24/7 rule. He would hold the title for a second reign, then go on to capture the SWA American title during a triple threat ladder match. During his time in the SWA Raoh and his brother Ken would join forces with once rival Jesse "Texas Terror" Rollen to form the stable known as the Untouchables turning his back on his younger sister Yuku, and all the fans that once supported him. Raoh would be known as the powerhouse muscle and enforcer of the group making sure that all those that stood in their way would pay dearly. This would last up until the closing of the BWI where Raoh would drop the American Championship in a triple threat match.

Future Goals: With the BWI behind him, Raoh would sign on with his brothers Jagi and Ken Shiro to Phil M Gahry's new promotion GIWF along with Jesse Rollen to reform the Untouchables. Shiro's mission is to do whatever it takes to once again make the Untouchables one of the historically most dominating stables in the wrestling business, as well as to finally a Heavyweight title to his resume.
