**Jet Setters** (ジェット・セッターズ, *Jetto Settāzu*) are a professional wrestling tag team formed by KUSHIDA and Kevin Knight, where they work for New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW). Formed in November 2022, the team works on NJPW's junior heavyweight division, where they are a former one-time IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Champions.

## History

From November 21 until December 11, Kevin Knight and KUSHIDA part in the 2022 Super Jr. Tag League, finishing the tournament with a record two wins and seven losses, failing to win the tournament. However during the tournament, Knight would graduate from his Young Lion status, something that KUSHIDA, would confirm himself. Knight started using orange baggy pants and Oakley sunglasses to match KUSHIDA's futuristic gimmick, nicknaming himself "The Jet". Following the tournament, Knight and KUSHIDA continued to team together, with both debuting for Impact Wrestling to face The Good Hands (Jason Hotch and John Skyler) in a winning effort.

On April 2, in a pre-taped vingette, KUSHIDA went on to teach Knight how to spell and speak Japanese before naming their team the "Jet Setters" and subsquently challenging Catch 2/2 (Francesco Akira and TJP) to a title match for the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Championships. Two days later, in a pre-taped vingette, Akira and TJP answered KUSHIDA and Knight's challenge by mocking the duo for teaching Knight how to spell, Akira then in Italian enraged at Knight for the way he did the promo in a gym. Kevin proceded to further denigrate the duo's tag name and KUSHIDA's WWE career before leaving their answer up in the air. On April 27, Knight and KUSHIDA defeated Akira and TJP to become the new champions. The following month, Knight and KUSHIDA took part in the 2023 Best of the Super Juniors. Knight finished the tournament with a record of three wins and six losses, and KUSHIDA with two wins and seven losses, both failling to advance to the semifinals of the tournament. On June 4 at Dominion 6.4 in Osaka-jo Hall, Knight and KUSHIDA lost the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Championship back to Akira and TJP. From October 21 to November 2, Knight and KUSHIDA took part in the 2023 Super Jr. Tag League, finishing the tournament with a record five wins and four losses, failing to advance to the finals of the tournament.
