2005 Recap:
A veteran from England, Williams began the year with a bang as he won the GHC Heavyweight Tag Team Championship with Scorpio on January 23rd, defeating Misawa and Ogawa. They would hold the belts for five months, but would lose the titles on their first defense. Other then that, Williams is a feared mid-carder who picks up far more wins then he does losses.

2006 Recap:
In 2006, Williams teamed a good deal with fellow Englander Nigel McGuinness, and they were very successful as a team together. Williams was not pinned in 2006 and is one of the most protected foreigners currently wrestling in NOAH. Course, Williams frequently wrestles in the mid-card with new gaijins (such as Wade Chism, Eddie Edwards, and Keith Walker), and thus is saved of having his shoulders against the mat. Still, he is considered one of the more respected gaijins along with Bison Smith and Scorpio (before Scorpio left).

2007 Recap:
Williams stayed active in NOAH in 2007, continuing to team with McGuinness when he was on tours and other gaijins as well. On March 4th he defeated Yoshinari Ogawa in a big singles match victory for him, showing that he was more then just a tag team wrestler. On October 13th he wrestled former GHC Heavyweight Champion Naomichi Marufuji in a singles match, but they would fight to a draw. Later on that same tour he defeated Masao Inoue, making 2007 one of his most successful years in NOAH as a singles wrestler. On the last Budokan event of the year he teamed with Buchanan, with the pair coming up victorious against Takuma Sano and Masao Inoue.
