Nobuo Yoshihashi (吉橋 伸雄, Yoshihashi Nobuo, born May 25, 1982) is a Japanese professional

IWGP Tag Team Champion, with Hirooki Goto; as well as being a former NEVER Openweight 6-Man Tag Team Champion with Hirooki Goto and Tomohiro Ishii
, a team which holds the record for the longest reign with the titles.

Professional wrestling career

New Japan Pro-Wrestling (2008–2010)

In 2005, Yoshihashi tried to earn a training spot in the

La Sombra.[7]

Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (2010–2011)

Yoshihashi joined

La Mascara, and Máximo.[8] For the rest of 2010 and the entire year of 2011 Yoshihashi wrestled in six-man two out of three falls matches and rarely participated in anything else. He lost most of his matches for CMLL in both 2010 and 2011.[7][8] Near the end of his stay in Mexico Yoshihashi started a storyline with CMLL mainstay Rush that started in six-man tag team matches and soon escalated to the point where the two agreed to both bet their hair in a Lucha de Apuestas ("Bet Match"), which in Mexico is more important than Championship matches.[9] On August 1, 2011, Rush defeated Yoshihashi and then forced him to have his hair shaved off as per the stipulation.[2][10]

Return to NJPW (2012–present)

In late 2011, it was announced that Yoshihashi would be returning to NJPW on January 4, 2012, at

2014 World Tag League.[22] The team finished their block with a record of four wins and three losses, failing to advance to the finals.[23]

2017 World Tag League. Finishing with a record of four wins and three losses, the team failed to qualify for the finals, after losing to Evil and Sanada in their final round-robin match.[40]

On August 9, 2020, Yoshi-Hashi, along with fellow Chaos stablemates, Tomohiro Ishii and Hirooki Goto, won the NEVER Openweight 6-Man Tag Team Championship in a tournament final at Summer Struggle in Korakuen Hall. This marked the first-ever title win in his wrestling career, 12 years after his debut in NJPW.[41]

In the 2021 World Tag League, Hiroko Goto and Yoshi-Hashi finished top of the single block league with 18 points. In the tournament finals, they defeated House of Torture (

Taichi) to win the IWGP World Tag Team titles.[43] On Night 2, Yoshi-Hashi, Goto and Yoh, failed to capture the NEVER Openweight 6-man Tag Team championships from House of Torture.[44]

In March, Yoshi-Hashi competed in the New Japan Cup, defeating Tomoaki Honma and Kosei Fujita, before being defeated by Jeff Cobb in the third round. At Hyper Battle, Yoshi-Hashi and Goto lost the IWGP Tag Team Championships to United Empire's Jeff Cobb and Great-O-Khan.[45] At AEW x NJPW: Forbidden Door, Yoshi-Hashi and Goto competed in the opening match on the Buy-In, defeating Q. T. Marshall and Aaron Solo.[46] This win lead to the pair getting an AEW World Tag Team Championship eliminator match on AEW Rampage, making their AEW debuts against current champions The Young Bucks, which they lost.[47] In June, Yoshi-Hashi was announced to be competing in the G1 Climax 32 tournament in July, as a part of the D Block.[48] He finished the tournament with a total of 6 points, failing to advance to the semi-finals.[48]

In September at Burning Spirit, Yoshi-Hashi, Goto and Yoh, lost the 6-man tag-team championships back to House of Torture.[49] The following month, Yoshi-Hashi participated in a tournament to crown the inaugural NJPW World Television Champion, defeating Jeff Cobb in the first round.[50] In the quarterfinals, Yoshi-Hashi lost to Evil.[51] In November, Bishamon competed in the World Tag League, finishing joint-top of the block and thus advancing to the finals.[52] In the finals, Bishamon defeated Aussie Open (Kyle Fletcher and Mark Davis) to win the tournament for a second year in a row.[53] On January 4 2023, at Wrestle Kingdom 17, the duo defeated FTR to win the IWGP Tag Team Championship for the second time as a tag-team.[54]

Bishamon made their first title defense at The New Beginning in Sapporo in February, defeating TMDK (Mikey Nicholls and Shane Haste).[55] A month later, the duo successfully defended the titles against Kazuchika Okada and Hiroshi Tanahashi. In March, Yoshi-Hashi entered the New Japan Cup but was defeated in the first round by Kyle Fletcher.[56] The victory earned Fletcher and Davis an IWGP Tag Team Championship match against Bishamon, in April at Sakura Genesis, where they lost the titles to Aussie Open, ending their third reign at 94 days.[57]

In June at Dominion 6.4 in Osaka-jo Hall, Bishamon won their third IWGP Heavyweight Tag Team Championship, defeating House of Torture and United Empire to win both the vacant IWGP Tag Team titles and the Strong Openweight Tag Team Championships, thus becoming double champions.[58] Five Days later, Bishamon reunited with Tomohiro Ishii at All Together Again, a joint event between NJPW, Pro Wrestling Noah (NOAH) and All Japan Pro Wrestling (AJPW), to defeat NOAH's Masa Kitamiya, Daiki Inaba and Yoshiki Inamura.[59] On July 4 on night 1 of NJPW Independence Day, Bishamon lost the Strong Openweight Championships, to Bullet Club Wardogs (Alex Coughlin and Gabriel Kidd).[60] The following night in a rematch, the duo defeated Coughlin and Kidd to retain the IWGP Tag Team Championships.[61] The following week, Yoshi-Hashi entered the annual G1 Climax tournament, competing in the B Block.[62] Yoshi-Hashi ended the tournament with 4 points, finishing at the bottom of his block and therefore failing to advance to the quarterfinals.[63]

Bishamon returned to tag-team competition in November, competing in the annual

title vs title rematch against Guerrillas of Destiny (G.O.D), at Wrestle Kingdom 18. On January 4, 2024, at Wrestle Kingdom. Bishamon was defeated by G.O.D, ending the team's third IWGP Tag Team title reign at 214 days.[68]
