Yuta debuted in 2014.[3] He made his
Combat Zone Wrestling (CZW) debut in late 2015 and consistently appeared for CZW until late 2016. On October 5, 2017, at
One Shot, he made his debut for
Major League Wrestling (MLW) in a losing effort to
MJF.[5] His last match for the promotion would be in 2019 against
Low-Ki.[6]
After
Tony Khan's purchase of Ring of Honor, it was announced that Yuta would face
Josh Woods at the revived
Supercard of Honor XV for the
ROH Pure Championship. At the event, Yuta defeated Woods to win the title.[8] On the May 24, 2022 episode of Dark, which aired almost two months after their bout at Supercard of Honor XV, Yuta would successfully defend the ROH Pure Championship against Woods in a rematch.[9] Yuta once again defended the title on the June 29 episode of Dark, defeating
Tony Nese. After the match, Yuta was attacked by
2point0 and
Daniel Garcia.[10] This led to a match between Garcia and Yuta for the title at
Death Before Dishonor, in which Yuta successfully retained the championship.[11] Yuta lost the title on the September 7 episode of Dynamite to Garcia, ending his reign at 159 days.[12]
On December 10, 2022, Yuta regained the ROH Pure Championship from Garcia at
Final Battle, in turn becoming the first person to hold the title on multiple occasions.[13] On January 18, Yuta made his first title defense against
Hagane Shinno at
The Jay Briscoe Celebration of Life.[14] Following the start of ROH programming on
Honor Club, Yuta successfully defended the title against
Timothy Thatcher. After the match, Yuta called out the NJPW LA Dojo, causing dojo graduate
Clark Connors to confront Yuta seeking a title shot, which Yuta granted.[15] The following week, Yuta defeated Connors to retain the Pure title. Post-match Yuta called out LA Dojo trainer,
Katsuyori Shibata.[16] On March 30, after successfully retaining the title against
Leon Ruffin, Yuta was confronted by Shibata, setting up their title match the following day at
Supercard of Honor.[17] At the event, Yuta lost the Pure Championship to Shibata, ending his second reign at 111 days.[18]
On the June 29, 2021 episode of Dark: Elevation, Yuta made his debut for
All Elite Wrestling (AEW) against
Karl Anderson, and would consistently appear on AEW's YouTube shows throughout the coming months. He also joined the
Best Friends stable, filling in for the injured
Trent Beretta in trios matches. On the November 10 episode of Dynamite,
Rocky Romero announced that Best Friends would become a sub-group within the NJPW stable
Chaos and would represent Chaos in AEW.[19]
After losing to
Bryan Danielson on the March 30, 2022 episode of Dynamite, Yuta walked away from his Best Friends teammates and teased a potential alliance with Danielson's
Blackpool Combat Club faction.[20] On the April 8 episode of Rampage, Yuta was defeated by Blackpool Combat Club member
Jon Moxley in a hard-fought match that saw him earn the group's respect. After the match, he was accepted into the group by its creator and then-manager
William Regal.[21] On the March 8, 2023 episode of Dynamite, after his Blackpool Combat Club teammates Moxley and
Claudio Castagnoli defeated
The Dark Order members
John Silver and
Alex Reynolds, Yuta joined them in beating down
"Hangman" Adam Page, turning heel for the first time in his AEW career.[22] Danielson then returned from his short hiatus to rejoin the Blackpool Combat Club, leading to an
Anarchy in the Arena match being scheduled for
Double or Nothing, where the Blackpool Combat Club defeated
The Elite (
Kenny Omega, Page,
Matt Jackson, and
Nick Jackson) after Yuta pinned its leader Omega.[23] At the
Forbidden Door event on June 25, Yuta, Moxley and Castagnoli teamed with
Konosuke Takeshita and
Shota Umino to take on Page, The Young Bucks,
Eddie Kingston and
Tomohiro Ishii in a ten-man tag team match, but were defeated.[24]
On the November 25 episode of Rampage, Yuta defeated Katsuyori Shibata to win the ROH Pure Championship for a record-setting third time.[25]
Between February 2024 and June 2024, Yuta was sidelined by an injury. Yuta returned to action in AEW on the 5 June edition of AEW Dynamite.[26]
