team with Yasushi Kanda.

them to form the original M2K. Wins the NWA Welterweight title, although he was
later stripped of it due to interference in the title match.
2001: Regains the Welterweight title by winning a tournament. Begins his long
and storied rivalry with the Ultra Hurricanrana.

change his name to Susumu Yokosuka. Continues on with the Magnum lead M2K, then
follows to Do FIXER.

the finals of the first Rey de Parejas tag tournament.
2004: Leaves DF, eventually landing as a part of Final M2K.
2005: Another quiet yet steady year. Finally begins to shake the choke artist
stigma, but still falls short in the King of Gate finals.
2006: Finally rises to the top line, winning the Open the Dream Gate. Named FM2K
leader while Mochi focused on the Renaissance project. Still, he did not reach
ace status. His title reign was sadly overshadowed by other events in DG at the
time, before losing it in an upset to Don Fujii. His stint as leader only lasted
3 months, FM2K disbanded at the end of the year
