Oliver was born in Florida.
In 1985, Oliver went to World Class Championship Wrestling in Dallas, where he was managed by Jim Cornette.
Oliver was involved in a story line with Mike Von Eric where he broke Von Eric's arm which led to their big match at Texas Stadium.
In 1985 Chris Adams allowed his tag team partner Gino Hernandez to defend the WCCW Television Championship against Billy Jack Haynes, where he lost that title, but Oliver defeated and severely injured Billy to win the television title soon thereafter.
After wrestling in PNW, Oliver began to wrestle for the World Wrestling Federation (WWF), and worked mainly as a jobber.
During his run, Oliver appeared once on Saturday Night's Main Event XVIII, going by the name of Super Ninja, challenging The Ultimate Warrior for the WWF Intercontinental Championship.
