Unlike most puroresu companies, ZERO-ONE stands up for its cosmopolitism and openness. It maintained a memorable working agreement with United States promotion Ultimate Pro Wrestling in the TurnOfTheMillennium, later became the Mecca of the Japanese independent circuit, and still frequently books freelancers and little known foreign wrestlers. Also, following its late creator's interest in martial arts, it used to feature a lot of shoot-style and UsefulNotes/MixedMartialArts talents, and was the platform for the relaunch of the cult promotion Wrestling/{{Battlarts}}. Currently, the company focuses mostly on its junior heavyweight division and its batch of legends and technical luminaries, but it has not totally cleared off its status as the BazaarOfTheBizarre of the wrestling world.

The same happens in Japan, where for many years after its heyday ZERO was essentially the Mecca of the Japanese indies, allowing many of them to showcase their talent and participate in big crossovers.

** Before Shinya Hashimoto's death, he had planned to return to New Japan for a reunion of the Three Musketers and perhaps to work out the relaionships between NJPW and ZERO-ONE, but it all ended with his demise.

** After the pro wrestling debut of Daichi Hashimoto in 2011, famous kickboxer Yuichiro Nagashima came to announce he was becoming a wrestler too and that he would be Daichi's [[TheRival rival]], which seemed to foretell a lifelong feud full of great wars and five star matches like the wrestlers of yore. Then it all ended abruptly when, after literally two matches for [=ZERO1=], Nagashima left for Inoki Genome Federation and dropped his plans of wrestling full time. Ironically, Daichi also jumped to IGF three years later, but by then Nagashima had abandoned pro wrestling altogether and had returned to kickboxing.

-->"...It was the quintessential ZERO-ONE card offering, if nothing else, variety; junior heavyweights and super heavyweights, flying wrestlers and power wrestlers, 80s tribute gimmicks and 80s superstars, performers old and young, fat and thin, short and tall, good and bad. Wrestling/NaoyaOgawa defeating [[Wrestling/SylvesterTerkay The Predator]] in their first ever cage match highlighted the show."

'''Pro Wrestling [=ZERO1=]''' (formerly called '''Pro Wrestling ZERO-ONE''' and '''Pro Wrestling [=ZERO1=]-MAX''') is a UsefulNotes/ProfessionalWrestling company founded in 2001 by Wrestling/ShinyaHashimoto. Under his hand, ZERO-ONE was a mainstay in the puroresu scene and a direct rival to the similarly founded Wrestling/ProWrestlingNOAH, but after Hashimoto left the promotion in 2004, the company began a gradual decline and ended up turning into basically a large-sized indy, the position it occupies today.
