KENTA only wrestled one time in an NJPW ring staying loyal to Pro Wrestling NOAH until he joined the WWE where he would have an uninspiring run in both NXT and 205 Live as injuries and toning down his style prevented him from being the big star many hoped. The former GHC Heavyweight Champion, three-time GHC Junior Heavyweight Champion, three-time GHC Junior heavyweight tag team champion and GHC Heavyweight tag team champion has now made the jump to the biggest and hottest company in Japan.
