Jado & Gedo (邪道&外道, Jadō & Gedō) were a professional wrestling tag team that currently work in New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW), where they are also the head bookers.
Jado and Gedo eventually joined Gran Hamada's Universal Lucha Libre (UWF) promotion, where they became the first UWA/UWF Intercontinental Tag Team Champions on November 8, 1991 by defeating Silver King and El Texano.
The three would defeat Tenryu, Animal Hamaguchi and Koki Kitahara in a tournament final on June 30, 1994 to become the first WAR World Six-Man Tag Team Champions.
[8] After losing the title, the team took a break with Gedo winning the WAR International Junior Heavyweight Championship[9] on two occasions as well becoming a runner up in New Japan's 1995 Super J-Cup.
Wasting no time, the three won the FMW World Street Fight 6-Man Tag Team Championship on March 21, 1997, but after four months as champions the title was vacated in July 1997.
[10] After losing the title, Jado and Gedo would be unable to win anymore championships together for the next few years (though Gedo did win the WEW Tag Team Championship with Koji Nakagawa), during this time, the team also began wrestling for All Japan Pro Wrestling,[11] most notably participating at All Japan's first Tokyo Dome show on May 1, 1998.
A few months later, on September 21, 2000, they would win the WEW Hardcore Tag Team Championship in a three way ladder match,[12] but would lose those title a few weeks later on October 10, 2000 to Supreme and Homeless Jimmy.
[12] Towards the end of their tenure, Jado and Gedo formed a stable with Masato Tanaka called The Complete Players, which won the Six Man Tag Team Championship.
Immediately after returning to New Japan they made an impact as they defeated Jyushin Thunder Liger and El Samurai at Dome Quake on July 20, 2001 to win their first IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Championship.
[21] On November 1, 2013, Gedo and Jado received their first shot at the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Championship in three years, but were defeated by the defending champions, Suzuki-gun (Taichi and Taka Michinoku).
On May 28, 2016, Gedo and Jado made a surprise appearance for Pro Wrestling Noah, challenging Atsushi Kotoge and Daisuke Harada to a match for the GHC Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Championship.
