In March 2010, Ohara began working for Yoshihiro Tajiri's new Smash promotion, losing to Kushida in the main event of the promotion's first ever show on March 26. Initially, Ohara worked as a face as part of the Smash Seikigun and a protégé of Tajiri's, working against wrestlers from the Finnish promotion, Fight Club Finland (FCF). On July 24 at "Smash.5", Ohara was squashed by the debuting Finn StarBuck. Later that same day on "Smash.6", Ohara turned on Tajiri, after he had lost the FCF Finnish Heavyweight Championship to StarBuck in the main event. The following month, Ohara traveled to Helsinki, Finland to unsuccessfully challenge StarBuck for the title, after which he kneeled before him and adopted him as his new mentor. Later that same month, Ohara began representing FCF in Smash, forming a regular partnership with transsexual wrestler Jessica Love and often accompanying StarBuck to his matches, while also starting a feud with Tajiri's number one protégé, Kushida. The rivalry ended on March 31, 2011, at "Smash.15", when Ohara defeated Kushida with his new finishing manoeuvre, the Finnish Forearm, in Kushida's final Smash match, before leaving for New Japan Pro-Wrestling. On June 9, Ohara entered a tournament to determine the first ever Smash Champion, defeating Último Dragón in his first round match. However, on August 11, Ohara was eliminated from the tournament by Veneno. In October, the Smash Seikigun and Fight Club Finland groups were brought together by the arrival of Dave Finlay. On November 24 at "Smash.23", Ohara pinned Tajiri in a tag team match, where he teamed with the returning Jessica Love and Tajiri with Último Dragon. After the main event, where Finlay defeated StarBuck for the Smash Championship, Ohara agreed to team up with Tajiri to protect Smash from the Irishman. On February 10, 2012, Smash announced that the promotion would be folding after its March 14 event, after which Ohara would become a free agent. On March 14, Ohara wrestled in Smash's final match, where he and StarBuck were defeated by Akira and Tajiri.
