Japan and Beyond Professional Wrestling Career (2004 - 2008)

Glenn Spectre was scouted by two Japanese promotions in 2004. Spectre debuted for Dramatic Dream Team (DDT Pro) at world famous Korakuen Hall for the Max Bump 2004 show challenging Danshoku Dino for the Iron Man Heavy Metal Title. Glenn Spectre and Danshoku Dino would become fast friends with Spectre in his Glenn “Q” Spectre persona rescuing Dino from the Aka Rangers and forming the tag team the Gay Machine Guns. As one half of the Gay Machine Guns, Glenn Spectre would become the first gaijin (foreigner) to hold a title in the DDT promotion when they would win the DDT Tag Team Titles in the main event of Boys Be Ambitious 2004 defeating Sanshiro Takagi & Ryuji Ito and GENTARO & Takashi Sasaki. Scheduling conflicts would force a title change, but the Gay Machine Guns would remain a dominant force in the DDT tag division, challenging for the titles in multiple tournaments.

Concurrent to these events, Glenn Spectre would also defeat ECW’s Danny Doring to win the NWA Upstate (Upstate Prowrestling) Heavyweight title. This would also begin a nearly year long feud with Brodie Lee culminating in a steel cage match in which Spectre would finally be defeated by Brodie Lee ending his title run at NWA Upstate at one day short of a full calendar year.
