Los Ingobernables de Japon (ロス・インゴベルナブレス・デ・ハポン Rosu Ingoberunaburesu de Hapon?) (L.I.J.) (Spanish for "The Ungovernables of Japan") is a professional wrestling stable, based in the New Japan Pro Wrestling (NJPW) promotion. An offshoot of the Los Ingobernables stable, based in the Mexican Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) promotion, the group was formed in 2015 by Tetsuya Naito, upon his return to NJPW from CMLL. Under the leadership of Naito, the stable has also come to include Bushi, Evil, Hiromu Takahashi and Sanada. Through NJPW's working relationship with the American promotion Ring of Honor (ROH), the stable has also appeared in the United States with ROH wrestler Jay Lethal and his manager Truth Martini being former members of the group.
Currently, the stable holds two titles in NJPW with Naito being the IWGP Intercontinental Champion and Takahashi the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Champion. While part of the stable, Naito has also held the IWGP Heavyweight Championship, Evil the NEVER Openweight Championship, Bushi both the CMLL World Welterweight and IWGP Junior Heavyweight Championships and Bushi, Evil and Sanada the NEVER Openweight 6-Man Tag Team Championship. Tokyo Sports cited L.I.J.'s impact on NJPW as one of the main factors in the magazine naming Naito the 2016 Wrestler of the Year.
