The Durban wrestler has collected several major accolades during his career. He was a WAWSA Arnolds Champion and a former DPW Interprovincial Champion and DPW Heavyweight Champion.

One of his biggest milestones came in 2016 when he teamed with Shadow to win the WWP Tag Team Championship at Sibaya in Durban.

The victory came in a triple-threat contest involving Shaun Koen and Johnny Palazzo from Cape Town, alongside Hotaru and Super X from Johannesburg. Chetty and Shadow's victory was significant as they became the first Indian competitors to hold the WWP Tag Team Championship.

Chetty also won Match of the Year honours in 2012, 2013 and 2014.
