Tetsuya Naito
In late 2008, Hoshino returned to NJPW for one final program. On December 7, he helped No Limit (Tetsuya Naito and Yujiro) defeat Gedo and Jado to retain their IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Championship, which led to his last match on December 22, 47 years to the day after he debuted, where he defeated Gedo in a street fight.
