Tetsuya Naito (内藤哲也, Naito Tetsuya, born June 22, 1982) is a Japanese professional wrestler signed to New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW), where he is the leader of the Los Ingobernables de Japon faction. He is a three-time world champion.

Naito began training for a professional wrestling career in 2000, initially under Animal Hamaguchi, before joining NJPW in 2004, where he underwent further training. Naito is a former NEVER Openweight Champion. In doing so, he became the first Triple Crown Champion in NJPW. He also held the IWGP Tag Team and IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Championship with former partner Yujiro Takahashi, with whom he teamed as No Limit. In addition to those, Naito is also a two-time winner of NJPW's premier singles tournament, the G1 Climax, having won it in 2013 and 2017, and the New Japan Cup, winning it in 2016. In 2016 and 2017, Tokyo Sports named Naito the wrestler of the year. In 2020, Naito became the first dual IWGP Intercontinental and Heavyweight Champion, his sixth and third reigns respectively.
