This mysterious masked man debuted for New Japan in January 2014, but truly found his spiritual home in Suzuki-Gun later in the year.
Desperado teamed up with Yoshinobu Kanemaru forming the junior heavyweight division’s most effective tag team. Desperado & Kanemaru seized the IWGP Junior Tag Team Championships at NJPW’s 46th Anniversary event, and held the titles for 304 days, becoming the longest running champions in two decades. Though his journey to singles gold was a seven year long one, February 2021 saw Hiromu Takahashi vacating the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Championship due to injury, with Desperado claiming his first of three junior reigns in a three way battle.
Starting 2023 no longer a part of the freshly disbanded Suzuki-Gun, he started just short of the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Championship at Wrestle Kingdom, but looked to bounce back in his own unique way, winning the NEVER 6 Man titles in the Strong Style team for a spell, before battling Jon Moxley in a brutal Final Death match in Korakuen Hall. On January 4 2024, Desperado beat Hiromu Takahashi and won the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Championship, but though his first defence against former partner Kanemaru was successful, his one time Strong Style teammate Ren Narita saw him lose the gold to SHO via countout before his reign passed the two month mark.
