He was previously on an international learning excursion, working for NJPW's Mexican partner Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) under the ring name Kawato-San/Kawato San. He is a former CMLL World Lightweight Champion and competed in the main event of CMLL's 2020 Sin Piedad supercard show.

He was trained in the NJPW Dojo in Tokyo, under Junji Hirata and Hiroshi Tanahashi. From 2016 until 2019 he worked as a "Young Lion" in NJPW, gaining in ring experience while still training.
