La Ola Amarilla (Spanish for "The Yellow Wave") is a professional wrestling group, also known as a stable in Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL). The group is exclusively for Japanese-born wrestlers, often wrestlers touring CMLL through a talent-sharing agreement with New Japan Pro Wrestling (NJPW). The group was founded in 2005 and has a rotating membership ever since its creation with the current stable consisting of Okumura, Raijin and Fujin.

La Ola Amarilla was created in 2005 by CMLL as a name of a group of Japanese wrestlers working full-time for CMLL consisting of Okumura, Hajime Ohara and Masada. The name was inspired by the name La Ola Blanca ("The White Wave") the name of the legendary team of Dr. Wagner and Ángel Blanco. Okumura, Ohara and Masada were all low ranking wrestlers in CMLL with Ohara and Masada remaining in the same position throughout their time there. Okumura would occasionally work higher up the ranks when he was teamed up with NJPW visitors such as Shinsuke Nakamura and Hiroshi Tanahashi, two of NJPW's rising stars who had come to Mexico to gain international experience. Okumura teamed with Nakamura and Tanahashi, as well as worked as their guide and contact outside the ring. The first major showing for La Ola Amarilla was the 2005 International Gran Prix with La Ola Amarilla representatives Shinsuke and Nakamura taking part in the match. The trio worked on CMLL's 72nd Anniversary show, losing to the all-Mexican team of Último Guerrero, Rey Bucanero and Averno. The 2006 International Gran Prix had no less than five Ola Amarilla members involved, Okumura, Ohara, Masada, Milano Collection AT and Katsushi Takemura teamed up with Pierroth, Jr., Marco Corleone and Johnny Stamboli to form "Team International".La Ola Amarilla was represented by Okumura, Hirooki Goto, Minoru Suzuki, Último Dragón and Jushin Thunder Liger in the 2007 International Gran Prix, although only Okumura, Ohara and Goto worked regularly for CMLL at the time. Ohara and Goto would both remain in Mexico for almost a year, returning to NJPW in the summer of 2007 leaving Okumura as the only Japanese wrestler in CMLL. In the fall of 2007 Shigeo Okumura broke his collar bone when an Asai Moonsault attempt by the inexperienced Fabián el Gitano went wrong and Fabián struck Okumura with his knees, breaking the bone. The injury sidelined Okumura for the remainder of 2007 and a large part of 2008.
