History

[edit]

Yoshi-Hashi joined Chaos in 2011, while Goto became member in 2016.[1] They wrestled together as part of multi-tag matches, including a title win in 2020 over his Chaos stablemates Kazuchika Okada, Toru Yano and Sho to win the NEVER Openweight 6-Man Tag Team Championship with Tomohiro Ishii in a tournament final at Summer Struggle in Korakuen Hall.[2]

In the 2021 World Tag League, Goto and Yoshi Hashi won the tournament when they defeated House of Torture.[3] At Wrestle Kingdom 16, they won the IWGP Tag Team Championship.[4] After they lost the titles to United Empire,[5] Bishamon won the 2022 World Tag Leage, wrestling for the Tag Team titles again at Wrestle Kingdom 17, defeating the then-champions FTR to win the titles for a second time.[6] Bishamon lost the title against Aussie Open, but the new champions vacated the titles. At Dominion 6.4 in Osaka-jo Hall, Goto and Yoshi-Hashi defeated the teams of House of Torture (Evil and Yujiro Takahashi) and United Empire (Great-O-Khan and Aaron Henare) in a three-way tag team match to win the IWGP and the Strong Openweight Tag Team Championship.[7]
