He had his return match on May 24 teaming with Koji Iwamoto to defeat Nomura and Yoshitatsu.[23] On June 13, Lee announced the formation of his own stable called "Sweeper" due to their desire to clean sweep All Japan by controlling their titles with the stable consisting of Iwamoto, Keiichi Sato, Ryoji Sai, and Dylan James.[24]

On March 23, Lee and Iwamoto lost the All Asia Tag Team Championships to Yankee Two Kenju (Isami Kodaka and Yuko Miyamoto).[41] Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, several events scheduled to showcase the Ikkitousen Strong Climb were cancelled and all remaining matches were adjudged as draws, allowing Lee to progress to the semi-finals. On April 26, Lee lost to Quiet Storm via count-out.[42] He participated in 2020's Champion Carnival and Real World Tag League with Iwamoto but was unsuccessful in both tournaments. On February 23, 2021, during a six-man tag team match against Enfants Terribles, the members of the stable turned on Shotaro Ashino.

[edit]

Lee made his debut in Pro Wrestling Noah on January 1, 2023, at The New Year, congratulating Jack Morris after his match with Timothy Thatcher, with the two forming a team.[46] On January 17, Lee and Morris announced the creation of the "Good Looking Guys" stable alongside Anthony Greene. The three underwent their first official match as a unit on January 22, 2023, at The Great Muta Final "Bye-Bye" where they defeated Masa Kitamiya, Daiki Inaba and Yoshiki Inamura in a six-man tag team match.[47] On February 12, following a post-match interview, Lee challenged Kaito Kiyomiya to a title match for the GHC Heavyweight Championship.[48] This led to a title match, on March 17, where Lee defeated Kiyomiya to win GHC Heavyweight Championship, becoming the first Korean descent person to hold the title.[49] At Green Journey in Sendai on April 16, Lee successfully defended the title against Katsuhiko Nakajima.[50] Lee then retained his title against Naomichi Marufuji at Majestic on May 4.[51] On June 17 at Great Journey in Nagoya, Lee successfully defended the title for the third time against Takashi Sugiura.[52] Following the match, Lee declared that he would become the first wrestler to enter to win all of his match in the 2023 N-1 Victory, as GHC Heavyweight Champion.[53]

However, in August, Lee finished the tournament with a record of four wins, two draws and one loss, with a loss against Kenoh on the final day costing him a spot in the finals of the tournament. On September 24 at Grand Ship In Nagoya, Lee successfully defended the title for the fourth time against 2023 N-1 Victory winner Go Shiozaki. After the match, Lee challenged Kenoh to a rematch for his title, after he was the one of ended his undefeated streak in Noah.[54] On October 28 at Demolition Stage In Fukuoka, Lee lost the GHC Heavyweight Championship to Kenoh, ending his reign at 223 days.[55]

On January 2, 2024, at Noah The New Year, after Kota Ibushi defeated Naomichi Marufuji in the main event, Lee and Kaito Kiyomiya confronted him, telling him to leave the promotion, before coming to a mutual agreement to continue pushing NOAH forward in 2024.[56] In interview, Lee stated that he couldn't feel that Kiyomiya was a good looking guy, as even his microphone was lacking. After Good Looking Guys defeated Kiyomiya's team on January 23, Lee stated that he wasn't interested in fighting Kiyomiya anymore, unless of course it was for their common goal, the GHC Heavyweight Championship, which was what he was interested in.

The following day at Grand Ship In Yokohama, Lee announced that Good Looking Guys would disband on July 13 at Destination.[57] At the event, Lee, YO-HEY and Tadasuke faced Morris, Greene and LJ Cleary in a winning effort. Afterwards, Gedo came to the ring and announced that Lee would join Bullet Club War Dogs and his departure from Pro Wrestling NOAH. He was subsequently confronted by Morris, before attacking him.[58]

As he was leaving the ring, he was received by Gedo on the ramp, who was bringing with himself a Bullet Club War Dogs shirt for Lee to wear it as an invitation to become an official member of the War Dogs. After a short pause, Lee immediately wears the shirt to confirm his entry into the War Dogs to the shock of the crowd and his former teammates, and also drawing the ire of Jack Morris, who received a Chokeslam for trying to question Lee's decision. After this, Lee took a microphone and sarcastically bid NOAH goodbye.[60]
