Doering debuted for All Japan Pro Wrestling on June 24, 2007.[12] After finishing the studying abroad period, All Japan rewarded Joe Doering with a gaijin contract in September 2007, and Doering became a member of the main roster. His first feud would be with Suwama, whom he pinned on October 18, 2007.[13] Suwama swore revenge on Doering, but was once again pinned by him in the opening match of the 2007 World's Strongest Tag Determination League, where Doering teamed with Japanese legend Keiji Mutoh and Suwama with Satoshi Kojima.[13] The teams would meet again in the finals of the same tournament and this time Mutoh pinned Suwama to win the tournament.[13] On January 3, 2008, Doering and Mutoh defeated Kojima and TARU to win the World Tag Team Championship.[14] However, due to Mutoh's busy schedule the team did not make any defenses, before losing the titles on June 28 to GURENTAI's Taiyō Kea and Minoru Suzuki.[13][14]

Doering's next feud would be with Zodiac, whom he defeated on May 25, 2008, in a Hair vs. mask match.[13] On October 28, 2008, Doering turned heel and joined the Voodoo Murders, where he would form a tag team with former rival Zodiac.[13] The team entered the 2008 World's Strongest Tag Determination League, where they finished third.[13]
