La Ola Amarilla (Spanish for "The Yellow Wave") was a professional wrestling group, also known as a stable in Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL). The group was founded in 2005 for Japanese-born wrestlers, often wrestlers touring CMLL through a talent-sharing agreement with New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW).

History

La Ola Amarilla was created in 2005 by CMLL as a name of a group of Japanese wrestlers working full-time for CMLL consisting of

Jushin Thunder Liger in the 2007 International Gran Prix, although only Okumura, Ohara and Goto worked regularly for CMLL at the time.[4] Ohara and Goto would both remain in Mexico for almost a year, returning to NJPW in the summer of 2007 leaving Okumura as the only Japanese wrestler in CMLL. In the fall of 2007 Shigeo Okumura broke his collar bone when an Asai Moonsault attempt by the inexperienced Fabián el Gitano
went wrong and Fabián struck Okumura with his knees, breaking the bone. The injury sidelined Okumura for the remainder of 2007 and a large part of 2008.

No Limit and Jushin Thunder Liger

Half of "No Limit" Naito

In the summer of 2009 Okumura was once again teamed up with a couple of Japanese wrestlers on a "Learning trip", this time he teamed with

El Texano, Jr. Okumura and Máximo faced off several times, usually as part of trios matches and each time the tension between the two wrestlers built. On November 5, 2009 the two faced off in a Lucha de Apuesta match, which saw Okumura win his first ever Apuesta, leaving Máximo bald in the process.[8] The storyline feud between No Limit and Black Warrior reached its conclusion on October 16, 2009 as Black Warrior faced Yujiro in a Lucha de Apuesta, hair vs. hair match that Yujiro won two falls to one, forcing Black Warrior to have his hair shaved off after the match.[9] After the storyline with Black Warrior ended No Limit began working with the team of El Texano, Jr. and El Terrible in a feud that led to a Lucha de Apuesta hair vs. hair match between the two teams that was the main event of CMLL's Sin Salida show on December 4, 2009. After being successful throughout the summer and fall No Limit finally lost to Texano, Jr. and Terrible at Sin Salida and were both shaved completely bald after the match per Lucha Libre traditions.[10]

Taichi, Tanahashi, Yoshihashi and Liger

Taichi
, made several trips to CMLL over the years.

While Yujiro and Naito left Mexico for NJPW by the end of 2009 Naito returned for a series of matches in January and was later joined by NJPW rookie

La Sombra in a non-title match, setting up a title match for the following week.[16] On May 21, 2010 La Ola Amarilla's title reign came to an end, just 14 days after they won the belts the Japanese Trio was unseated by Máscara Dorada, La Máscara and La Sombra.[17]
Tanahashi returned to Japan shortly after losing the trios championship.

At the

steel cage match that will be the main event of the CMLL 77th Anniversary Show, while Okumura and Yoshihashi continue to play supporting roles.[21] Liger was the seventh man to leave the steel cage, keeping his mask safe. The match came down to La Sombra pinning Olímpico to unmask him.[22]

La Fiebre Amarilla

In March 2012 NJPW trainee

Yohei Komatsu
would be heading to CMLL for their excursions joining the group and they would have been known there as "Raijin" and "Fujin" respectively, named after The Gods of Thunder and Wind.
