Professional wrestling career

On April 8, 2022, Noah announced Wolf as one of the foreing wrestlers that would appear at Majestic on April 29. At the event, Wolf made his official debut for the promotion, losing a three-way elimination match involving his young brother Dragón Bane and Ninja Mack, who won the match. Over the following months, Wolf and Bane began working in various matches with each other. On September 3, Wolf and Bane challenged Chris Ridgeway and Daga to a title match for the GHC Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Championship. However, on September 5, Ridgeway and Daga vacated the titles, leading NOAH to announce that Los Golpeadores would face Alejandro and Ninja Mack for the vacant titles. On September 24 at Grand Ship In Nagoya 2023, Los Golpeadores defeated Alejandro and Mack to win the GHC Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Championship. They lost the title to Good Looking Guys (Tadasuke and Yo-Hey) on January 2, 2024 at The New Year.
