In 2012 he started on to compete in Pro Wrestling ZERO1, as he would clash with, the son of Shinya Hashimoto, Daichi Hashimoto. Even though they share the same name they do not share the same direct relation. The two would begin to compete as a team and even compete in Big Japan’s Tag League later that year. The two would be dubbed “Team Yamato.” In January 2014, Hashimoto debuted for German promotion Westside Xtreme Wrestling (wXw), teaming with Ryuichi Kawakami to unsuccessfully challenge Hot 'N Spicy (Axel Dieter Jr. and Da Mack) for the wXw Tag Team Championship. On June 1, he and Daisuke Sekimoto unsuccessfully challenged Dangan Yankees (Takashi Sugiura and Masato Tanaka) for the NWA Intercontinental Tag Team Championship.
