==Summary==
Evil (stylized as EVIL; born January 26, 1987), is a Japanese professional wrestler. He is currently working for New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW) and is the 6th and Co-Leader of the Bullet Club along with Jay White. Evil joined fellow NJPW long vertern Naito's stable Los Ingobernables de Japón (LIJ) and the leader of the stable Tetsuya Naito gave him the new name "King of Darkness" Evil name as he joined the group in 2015. After becoming a fan favorite with his over the top entrance and demonic ring gear EVIL found success by becoming IGWP Tag team Champion two times with his tag team partner Sanada in 2016 and the duo became multi time Tag team champions as well as tag team tournament winners of World Tag League (2017 and 2018), According to him everything all around us is simply evil.
Four years later in 2020, After New Japan Pro-Wrestling underwent a hiatus in late February 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the company resumed its activities with the 2020 New Japan Cup, which begun on June 16, 2020, with the winner receiving a title shot against Naito for both the IWGP Heavyweight and IWGP Intercontinental Championships. Entering the tournament, Evil defeated Satoshi Kojima, Hirooki Goto, Yoshi-Hashi, and his teammate Sanada to reach the finals, displaying a more aggressive attitude, notably cheating by low blowing Hirooki Goto in their match, injuring Yoshi-Hashi before their match, and using a chair to attack Sanada’s neck in their match. In the finals on July 11, Evil defeated Kazuchika Okada, in part due to interference by Bullet Club, who attacked Okada seemingly behind Evil's back (as he appeared unconscious when it happened). When Naito came out to congratulate him on his win, Evil threw up the "too sweet" symbol of Bullet Club instead of the raised fist of Los Ingobernables, then attacked Naito, turning heel and assaulting Naito, and was soon joined by Bullet Club, establishing himself as a member of the stable and the first person to ever leave Los Ingobernables de Japón. His success as a Bullett Club leader made him IWGP Heavyweight Champion and in the same year IWGP Intercontinental Champion making him a double champion and Triple crown winner as well by winning NJPW Cup 2020 by pinning Okada. In 2022 Jay White lead Bullet Club U.S.A to Impact Wrestling and AEW while Evil stays in Japan handing the rest of the Bullet Club from their side calling his sub group The House of Torture.
