Kento Miyahara (宮原 健斗 , Miyahara Kento, born February 27, 1989) is a Japanese professional wrestler, currently signed to All Japan Pro Wrestling (AJPW), where he is a former four time Triple Crown Heavyweight Champion.

On February 12, 2016, Miyahara defeated Zeus in a decision match to win the vacant Triple Crown Heavyweight Championship for the first time. At 26 years and 350 days, Miyahara became the youngest Triple Crown Heavyweight Champion in history, beating the previous record held by then 29-year-old Terry Gordy. On February 21, Miyahara failed in his bid to become a “Quintuple Crown Champion”, when he and Jake Lee were defeated by Zeus and Bodyguard in a match for the World Tag Team Championship.

On February 24, he made his second defence against long-term rival Suwama, right after the match, Naoya Nomura came to the ring and challenged Miyahara to a title match, which the champion accepted. This led to a match between the former partners on March 19, where Miyahara became victorious. He participated in the Champion Carnival, making 10 points, winning 5 matches and losing 3, advancing to the finals. On April 29, the champion defeated Jake Lee to win the Champion Carnival for the first time. Miyahara successfully defended his title against Shuji Ishikawa on May 20.
2019 became the third year when the Triple Crown did not change hands, Miyahara’s fourth reign becoming the third overall in terms of length, after Mitsuharu Misawa’s first reign (705 days, lasted all of 1993), and Toshiaki Kawada’s fifth reign (529 days, lasted all of 2004), before finally losing the belt back to Suwama on March 23, 2020.
