Masato Yoshino

===Dragon Gate===
During the early days of Dragon Gate, Yossino continued to team with his fellow Italian Connection members. Together they would become the first Dragon Gate Open the Triangle Gate Champions. The ItaCon would dissolve in 2005 when Milano left the promotion. Alone as Mori went to create PosHearts with [[Magnum TOKYO]], [[Super Shisa]] and the debuting [[BxB Hulk]], Yossino prepared for the tournament to crown the first Dragon Gate Open The Brave Gate champion, which was won by Doi . He also briefly teamed with his respected rival K-Ness, but shortly afterwards backstabbed him to join the newly formed Blood Generation stable. He also did away with his Tarzan gimmick, cutting his hair short and switching from fringed tights to a singlet, and he returned to using his given name, Masato Yoshino, in the ring. On April 12, 2006, when CIMA kicked [[Gamma]] out of the group due to their constantly butting heads, Yoshino - along with [[Naruki Doi]] and [[Naoki Tanisaki]] - followed Gamma. Eleven days later, after Doi & Gamma won full rights to the Blood Generation name from CIMA & [[Don Fujii]] in a tag match, they refused the name and became the [[Muscle Outlaw'z]].

Yoshino began to gain rank within Dragon Gate rapidly in 2007. He began teaming with stable leader [[Naruki Doi]] as Speed Muscle, and together they would win the [[I-J Heavyweight Tag Team Championship]] and the [[GHC Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Championship]], as well as become the first [[Open the Twin Gate Championship|Open the Twin Gate]] Champions and [[Summer Adventure Tag League]] Tournament winners. He also captured the Open the Brave Gate Championship twice that year.

On January 7, 2008, he made his debut in Hawaii for Action Zone Wrestling at Battleclash III, teaming with [[Naruki Doi]] in a Four-Way Elimination Tag Team match for the AZW Tag Team Championships.

During 2008, Yoshino continued to gain rank. In March, he faced CIMA for the Open the Dream Gate Title, losing in just under 30 minutes when Doi threw in the towel. His performance was praised by stablemates and rivals alike, and his team with Doi - which looked for a while like it was going to come apart - was reconciled. By this time, Doi & Yoshino were leaning towards becoming faces again, thus causing tensions to start stirring in MO'z, and the tensions grew more and more as the weeks went on. Finally, on May 5, Doi & Yoshino turned on the other members of MO'z when they attacked stablemate [[Yasushi Kanda]] and cost him his hair in a Mascara contra Cabellera (Mask vs. Hair) Cage Survival Six-Way Match. Nine days later, soon after the mega-group Real Hazard was formed, Doi and Yoshino - along with [[BxB Hulk]], Naoki Tanisaki, and [[m.c.KZ]] - formed the group WORLD-1.

On June 29, he wrestled Gamma for the Open the Brave Gate title (which Gamma had renamed to the "Open the Gamma Gate" title) under the mask of Dr. Muscle, defeating him and restoring the Brave Gate's faceplate to the belt. He then had it vacated, only winning it to see its restoration and for a proper decision match to take place. In August, he and Doi won their second straight Summer Adventure Tag League Tournament, and then the next month, on September 26, they beat [[Ryo Saito]] and Susumu Yokosuka to become the Open the Twin Gate Champions for the second time. Though their second reign would only last nine days, for they lost the belts to [[YAMATO]] & [[Cyber Kong]], Yoshino rebounded a week later when he captured the Open the Brave Gate Title for a fourth time, besting [[Genki Horiguchi]]. He defended it twice before losing it to CIMA on March 22 in another great match between the two.

On June 7, he, BxB Hulk and [[PAC]] captured the Triangle Gate titles from CIMA, Gamma & [[KAGETORA]], and they held them for three months before dropping them to [[Masaaki Mochizuki]], Don Fujii & [[Akebono]]. On July 11, 2010, Yoshino defeated YAMATO to win the [[Open the Dream Gate Championship]] for the first time. On August 14, 2010, Yoshino defeated [[Tigers Mask]] to win the Open the Brave Gate Championship for the fifth time, but immediately afterwards vacated the title, due to also holding the Open the Dream Gate Championship. On August 24, 2010, Yoshino and Naruki Doi won their third Summer Adventure Tag League by defeating Genki Horiguchi and Ryo Saito in the finalsOn October 13, 2010, Doi, bitter about Yoshino winning the Open the Dream Gate Championship, turned on him and BxB Hulk and joined the former Deep Drunkers and [[Takuya Sugawara]] to form a new heel stable. On December 26, 2010, at ''Final Gate 2010'' Yoshino successfully defended the Open the Dream Gate Championship against Doi. On January 30, 2011, Yoshino and PAC defeated [[Chuck Taylor]] and [[Johnny Gargano]] to become [[Dragon Gate USA]]'s first ever [[Open the United Gate Champions]]. On April 14, 2011, Yoshino lost the Open the Dream Gate Championship to Masaaki Mochizuki. At the same event, World-1 failed to win the Open the Triangle Gate Championship from Blood Warriors and was as a result forced to disband. On April 24 former World-1 members Yoshino, BxB Hulk, PAC and Susumu Yokosuka agreed to form a new alliance with Masaaki Mochizuki to battle Blood Warriors. On June 8, the new group was named Junction Three in reference to it being a union between the former members of World-1, KAMIKAZE and the Veteran-gun. On June 18, Yoshino, Gamma and YAMATO defeated the Blood Warriors team of CIMA, Naruki Doi and BxB Hulk to win the vacant Open the Triangle Gate Championship. They would go on to lose the title to the Blood Warriors team of Kzy, Naoki Tanisaki and Naruki Doi on September 2. On September 11, Yoshino and PAC lost the Open the United Gate Championship to Open the Twin Gate Champions, CIMA and [[Ricochet]], in a title vs. title match. On February 9, 2012, Junction Three was forced to disband, after losing a fourteen-man elimination tag team match to Blood Warriors. Yoshino then reunited with Naruki Doi to form World-1 International.  On March 30, 2012, he and Ricochet defeated Ronin's Chuck Taylor and Johnny Gargano at a Dragon Gate USA event in Miami, Florida to win the vacant Open the United Gate Championship. On May 6, Yoshino, Doi and Pac won the Open the Triangle Gate Championship.  On June 21, 2012, Yoshino and Ricochet were stripped of the United Gate Championship due to Yoshino being forced to miss Dragon Gate USA's July 2012 events. On May 5, 2013, Yoshino defeated [[Dragon Kid]] to win the Open the Brave Gate Championship for the sixth time. He vacated the title on August 30 after he, [[Punch Tominaga| Chihiro Tominaga]] and [[Big R Shimizu|Ryotsu Shimizu]] lost to the debuting Millennials ([[T-Hawk]], [[Eita]] and [[U-T]]), saying he felt the title should be competed for within the new generation. On September 12, Naruki Doi turned on Yoshino, signaling the end of World-1 International. Yoshino quickly formed a new stable named Monster Express with [[Akira Tozawa]], [[Ricochet]], Shachihoko Boy, [[Shingo Takagi]] and [[Uhaa Nation]]. On October 10, Yoshino defeated YAMATO to win the Open the Dream Gate Championship for the second time. On March 2, 2014, Yoshino dropped the Open the Dream Gate Championship to Monster Express stablemate Ricochet. On May 30, 2015, Yoshino defeated T-Hawk in the finals to win the [[King of Gate#2015|2015 King of Gate]] tournament. On June 14, Yoshino defeated BxB Hulk to win the Open the Dream Gate Championship for the third time. On November 23, 2015, Yoshino defeated Mr. Nakagawa via fan decision the [[Open the Owarai Gate Championship]]. He was stripped of the title on April 3 due to failure to defend it within the previous three months.
