On January 3, 2016, Kawato made his in-ring debut, losing to fellow Young Lion Yohei Komatsu.

As a Young Lion he mainly faced other trainees early on, moving on to participate in various tournaments such as the 2017 Super Junior Tag Tournament (with Kushida) and finishing second in the 2017 Young Lion Cup.

Kawato and Yoshitatsu defeated Katsuya Kitamura and Oka in the dark match of the 2017 Wrestling Dontaku major show, but still did not work on the televised portion of the show.

On June 20, Kawato was involved in his first higher card match when he teamed with Hiroshi Tanahashi, losing to Los Ingobernables de Japón ("The Ungovernables from Japan"; Tetsuya Naito and Hiromu Takahashi).

In October, Kawato teamed with Kushida to take part in the 2017 Super Junior Tag Tournament where they were defeated in the first round by Roppongi 3K (Sho and Yoh).

His final match of the tour, and for NJPW at the time, saw him team with Mexican wrestler Atlantis as they lost to Gedo and Bárbaro Cavernario.

On January 9, 2018, CMLL announced on Twitter that Kawato would begin his excursion with them at the end of the month, and would actively compete in the promotion after taking part in New Japan's Fantastica Mania events.

In June 2019, Kawato San and Audaz outlasted Eléctrico, El Hijo del Villano III, Flyer, Príncipe Diamante, Star Jr.., Super Astro Jr., and Halcón Suriano Jr. to earn a match for the vacant CMLL World Super Lightweight Championship.

The following week, on June 30, 2019, Kawato San defeated Audaz to become the new champion.

Kawato did not wrestle any matches after July 28, 2019, due to what was later revealed to be a knee injury.

It was announced on November 6, 2019, that Kawato-San had returned to Mexico after recovering from his knee injury.

Kawato was stripped of the CMLL World Lightweight Championship due to the injury.

Kawato returned to the ring on November 9, teaming with El Felino and Rey Bucanero as they lost to Atlantis Jr.., Ángel de Oro, and Niebla Roja.
