Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Pro Wrestling ZERO1 (formerly called Pro Wrestling ZERO-ONE and Pro Wrestling ZERO1-MAX) is a Professional Wrestling company founded in 2001 by Shinya Hashimoto. Under his hand, ZERO-ONE was a mainstay in the puroresu scene and a direct rival to the similarly founded Pro Wrestling NOAH, but after Hashimoto left the promotion in 2004, the company began a gradual decline and ended up turning into basically a large-sized indy, the position it occupies today.Originally conceived by Hashimoto as a sub-company within New Japan Pro-Wrestling, he launched it as an independent promotion in January 2001 after leaving NJPW by booking disagreements. Helped by native loyalists, various friends and foreign allies, Hashimoto led it to success until 2004, year in which the promotion started an interesting crossover with Dream Stage Entertainment to form the sports entertainment-oriented Fighting Opera HUSTLE. However, November of that year also saw Hashimoto leaving ZERO-ONE due to economic mismanagement, which caused the promotion to fold and be re-opened by the rest of the staff under the name ZERO1-Max. The company continued its co-promotion with HUSTLE until the latter's end in 2009, year in which it got renamed again, now as ZERO1. A couple years later, the late Shinya's son Daichi Hashimoto would debut, though his short tenure in the company would only be the first of several failed attempts to give it its former status.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Unlike most puroresu companies, ZERO-ONE stands up for its cosmopolitism and openness. It maintained a memorable working agreement with United States promotion Ultimate Pro Wrestling in the Turn of the Millennium, later became the Mecca of the Japanese independent circuit, and still frequently books freelancers and little known foreign wrestlers. Also, following its late creator's interest in martial arts, it used to feature a lot of shoot-style and Mixed Martial Arts talents, and was the platform for the relaunch of the cult promotion Battlarts. Currently, the company focuses mostly on its junior heavyweight division and its batch of legends and technical luminaries, but it has not totally cleared off its status as the Bazaar of the Bizarre of the wrestling world. |

The Artifact: ZERO-ONE formerly figured as a member of National Wrestling Alliance, the Global Professional Wrestling Alliance (which includes Pro Wrestling NOAH, Ring of Honor and Dramatic Dream Team amongst its members) and the World Wrestling League. As such, "Zero-1" or some variation of occasionally pops up in promotions that seem entirely unrelated to it, such as NWA Midwest. |

The Rival |

comment |
After the pro wrestling debut of Daichi Hashimoto in 2011, famous kickboxer Yuichiro Nagashima came to announce he was becoming a wrestler too and that he would be Daichi's rival, which seemed to foretell a lifelong feud full of great wars and five star matches like the wrestlers of yore. Then it all ended abruptly when, after literally two matches for ZERO1, Nagashima left for Inoki Genome Federation and dropped his plans of wrestling full time. Ironically, Daichi also jumped to IGF three years later, but by then Nagashima had abandoned pro wrestling altogether and had returned to kickboxing. |

Aborted Arc: Before Shinya Hashimoto's death, he had planned to return to New Japan for a reunion of the Three Musketers and perhaps to work out the relaionships between NJPW and ZERO-ONE, but it all ended with his demise. UEXILE took the trouble to redebut under his real name with the goal of being a ZERO1 regular, but he vanished shortly after. After the pro wrestling debut of Daichi Hashimoto in 2011, famous kickboxer Yuichiro Nagashima came to announce he was becoming a wrestler too and that he would be Daichi's rival, which seemed to foretell a lifelong feud full of great wars and five star matches like the wrestlers of yore.

Otani started attacking Hashimoto, but then Satoshi Kojima did a Villainous Rescue and attacked Otani. Then Yoshihiro Takayama came out and attacked Hashimoto and Kojima. Then The Predator also came and attacked Takayama. Then Naoya Ogawa came to save Hashimoto and attacked Takayama as well. Then Matt Ghaffari came and attacked... well, at this point, everybody was attacking everybody. |

Waif-Fu: During a 3 on 3 tag match at ZERO1 Dream Series ~ Growth Momono Mio managed to get the win for her team by putting Hartley Jackson in a knee lock. Now Jackson was the smallest man on his team, but still way bigger than Momono, the smallest woman on hers. |

Arrogant Kung-Fu Guy: Given the plenty of rising young wrestlers and proud martial artists in ZERO1, there had been many of them in it through its history. Naoya Ogawa and Hayato Fujita are the main examples. |
