BIOGRAPHY
A veteran of multiple promotions, Taiji Ishimori has brought his speed, athleticism and ruthless mentality to earn success everywhere he goes. A member of BULLET CLUB since 2018, Ishimori has become a key player in the group.
With laundry list of titles already under his belt in Pro-Wrestling NOAH, Ishimori’s first NJPW championship was the NEVER Openweight 6-Man tag title, which he won alongside G.o.D. in August 2018. The next January he won his first IWGP Junior Heavyweight Championship from KUSHIDA, and claimed the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Championships with El Phantasmo the same year, before becoming IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Champion for the second time in August 2020.
Ishimori lost his title back to Hiromu after a hard fought semi main event at Wrestle Kingdom 15, and though he teamed with El Phantasmo for a second IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Championship reign in January 2021, it was a brief one month reign. What lies next in wait for Ishimori?
