Biography
Yota Tsuji is a Japanese professional wrestler signed to New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW) who previously competed in American football, baseball, and taekwondo before transitioning to wrestling. He debuted in 2018 through NJPW’s Young Lion system and later went on excursion with Yuya Uemura to Revolution Pro Wrestling (RevPro) and Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) before returning to Japan in May 2023. After entering his first G1 Climax in 2023, winning the 2024 New Japan Cup, and reaching the finals of the 2024 G1 Climax where he lost to Zack Sabre Jr., he defeated David Finlay at Wrestle Kingdom 19 to win his first singles title and become a two-time IWGP Global Heavyweight Champion, a one-time NEVER Openweight Six Man Tag Team Championship alongside BUSHI and Hiromu Takahashi, before ultimately capturing the IWGP Heavyweight Championship at Wrestle Kingdom 20 in 2026.
