Despite being recognized as an emerging talent in the wrestling world, Yuka Sakazaki has spent several years competing in both Japan and the US, achieving significant success along the way. Her notable entrance into the spotlight occurred with All Elite Wrestling (AEW) during their 2019 Double or Nothing Pay-Per-View event. Following a mysterious removal and subsequent reinstatement on the AEW website, speculation about Sakazaki's status with the company has been widespread.
