On August 18, 2012, Takeshita was defeated by El Generico in his official debut match.[1][11] On November 25, Takeshita pinned Poison Sawada Julie in his retirement match, a six-man tag team match.[12] At the end of 2013, Tokyo Sports named Takeshita Japanese professional wrestling's Rookie of the Year, with him becoming the first wrestler still in high school to win the award.[13] He also finished second in Wrestling Observer Newsletter's award category for Rookie of the Year, losing to Yohei Komatsu by four votes (906–902).[14]
