Riggins has competed in Southeastern independent promotions including the United States Wrestling Association (USWA) during the 1990s. Hargrove was the final wrestler to be trained by Tojo Yamamoto before Yamamato's death in 1992. Hargrove made his WWE debut as Reno Riggins in March 1988, spending several years as an enhancement talent, competing against many of the top heels of the time.
