Description

Shingo Takagi (鷹木信悟, Takagi Shingo, born November 21, 1982) is a Japanese professional wrestler, currently signed to New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW). He is a member of Los Ingobernables de Japon.

Takagi first became known for his work with Dragon Gate, where he competed from his debut in 2004 up until 2018. He was known as the promotion's top heel for many years, and went on to become one of the most decorated wrestlers in the company's history, winning the Open the Dream Gate Championship, the top championship in Dragon Gate, four times. He was also known as the leader of the villainous VerserK stable through its many incarnations, and for his long-lasting rivalry with BxB Hulk, with whom he main-evented several prominent Dragon Gate events. He has also spent an extended amount of time with American promotions such as Full Impact Pro, Pro Wrestling Guerrilla and Ring of Honor.

On October 8, 2018, Takagi made his surprise debut in NJPW as the foreshadowed sixth member of the Los Ingobernables de Japon stable. Originally performing in the Junior Heavyweight division, he went on to be undefeated as a singles competitor and overall unpinned and unsubmitted until June 2019, winning the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Championship once with fellow Ingobernable Bushi. He moved to the Heavyweight division later that month. From February to August 2020, Takagi held both the NEVER Openweight Championship and the NEVER Openweight 6-Man Tag Team Championship (with Bushi and Evil), making him the first person to hold both NEVER titles at the same time.
