2005 Recap:
McGuinness starting touring with NOAH in late 2005, and frequently teamed with Doug Williams, Scorpio, and Bison Smith. McGuinness has been fairly well protected thus far but has not been seen as a title threat.

2006 Recap:
2006 was McGuinness's first full year in NOAH and he did not disappoint, as he was very solid in-ring. McGuinness wrestled mostly in the mid-card on NOAH cards, and he even teamed with the new dojo graduates a few times. Even though McGuinness is sometimes on the losing team, he is usually not the one getting pinned, so it could be worse. He is still considered "new" to NOAH and thus it will be some time before he gets higher profile matches.

2007 Recap:
McGuinness spent a good part of 2007 nursing injuries and thus did not make as many tours for NOAH as he did in 2006. He only wrestled on two Budokan events, teaming with Williams in January to defeat Yoshinari Ogawa and Shuhei Taniguchi. In June and July, McGuinness defeated Shuhei Taniguchi and Kotaro Suzuki in singles matches. He did not challenge for any titles in NOAH during 2007 and was absent from the promotion after the summer.
