Star Ratings For Each Match From 'Wrestle Kingdom 12'

NEVER Openweight 6-Man Tag Team Championship: CHAOS (Beretta, Toru Yano, Tomohiro Ishii) d. Bullet Club (Tama Tonga, Tanga Loa, Bad Luck Fale), Taguchi Japan (Ryusuke Taguchi, Togi Makabe, and Juice Robinson), Suzuki-gun (Zack Sabre, Jr. Taichi, Takashi Iizuka), and Michael Elgin & War Machine (title change)

Very intense match, which was a good way to introduce casual fans to the hard-hitting style of Japanese wrestling. This was Hanson and Rowe’s first Wrestle Kingdom, and it may be their last, since they are rumored to be heading to WWE soon. This match was also promoted as Beretta’s first Wrestle Kingdom match as a Heavyweight competitor, and it was cool that he won a championship under those circumstances.

STAR RATING: ***
