Open the Brave Gate Championship
In 2005, Psycho appeared in multiple major promotions as a K-Dojo representative. The first of these was Dragon Gate, where he participated in the Open the Brave Gate Championship tournament, but despite he eliminated Naoki Tanizaki in the first round, he was beaten by Yossino at the second. He next appeared along with trainer Taka Michinoku in Pro Wrestling Noah's "Differ Cup 5", losing to Ikuto Hidaka and Minoru Fujita in the first round, and then in Pro Wrestling Zero1, in whose "Tenkaichi Tournament" he took part as well, scoring wins over Alex Shelley and Osamu Namiguchi. Finally, he worked as well for All Japan Pro Wrestling, teaming up with Michinoku again to compete unsuccessfully in a tournament for the All Asia Tag Team Championship. He remained in AJPW for a time, forming a tag team with comedy wrestler Kikutaro and becoming an unofficial member of Taka's faction RO&amp;D. Psycho's last apparition was an AJPW World Junior Heavyweight Championship shot against Taka, which he lost. Also, Psycho appeared in Hustle as Flying Vampire #16, a minor member of the Takada Monster Army.
