Early Life

Dansereau first began wrestling at the age of 14. At the time, he went under the name “El PoPo”. On an episode of Colt Cabana’s podcast, The Art of Wrestling, he explained that the decision to change his name came when El Generico wanted to be called Player 1. Uno changed it around and picked the name Uno. He originally planned to learn Spanish after choosing the name.

Early Career

In 2004, Dansereau began training for a career in professional wrestling. He worked for various independent promotions, such as International Wrestling Syndicate. Uno made his debut in the Canadian wrestling promotion International Wrestling Syndicate (IWS). Uno also found success as a singles competitor as well as the tag team category, as he also won both the IWS Canadian Championship and IWS Tag Team Championship. In 2007, the team started competing in Chikara. Uno and Stupefied, now competing as Player Dos and naming their team the Super Smash Brothers, won the Chikara Campeonatos de Parejas. Uno, along with Player Dos, made his ROH debut on May 8, 2009 in Boston, MA, in a losing effort against Rhett Titus and Kenny King. They scored an upset victory over former ROH World Tag Team Champions Kevin Steen and El Generico. 

On January 28, 2012, the Super Smash Bros. made their debut for Dragon Gate USA, defeating The Scene (Caleb Konley and Scott Reed) in a tag team match. The Super Smash Bros.’ win streak ended on November 2, when they were defeated by Genki Horiguchi and Ryo Saito in an Open the United Gate Championship number one contenders’ match. On September 10, 2011, Uno debuted in Pro Wrestling Guerrilla (PWG) as a member of the Super Smash Bros. with Stupefied. They defeated 2 Husky Black Guys (El Generico and Willie Mack) in the final round to win the 2012 Dynamite Duumvirate Tag Team Title Tournament and become number one contenders to the PWG World Tag Team Championship.

AEW

Evil Uno and Stu Grayson made their surprise debut as The Dark Order at AEW Double or Nothing on May 25, 2019, appearing at the conclusion of the match between Best Friends and Angélico and Jack Evans.
