Jay White did not wrestle badly at Wrestle Kingdom 12, at all. If anything, he was great for someone as young as he is. Especially when you consider that he went up against Hiroshi Tanahashi in the Tokyo Dome. Tanahashi isn't just a wrestler in NJPW, he's a definite living legend.

No one knows what it means to be a champion more than The Ace, @tanahashi1_100 ! Now he faces #Switchblade in order to prove it! pic.twitter.com/YgOE0VrA0e

Cody Rhodes' uncle is a WWE Hall of Famer. More details HERE.

In a night filled with great wrestling, this match just paled in comparison. Maybe because it was squeezed between the Junior Heavyweight Match and the Omega-Jericho match, it never took off. He just wasn't ready for the spot!
