- As noted, in an interview via Yahoo! Japan, Kenny Omega said Wrestle Kingdom 12 is a "double main event" show with Kazuchika Okada defending the IWGP Heavyweight Championship against Tetsuya Naito and Omega defending the IWGP U.S. Championship against Chris Jericho. Naito wasn't a fan of Omega using the double main event term, responding that it doesn't mean anything rather than Omega just saying that he wants to be the main event. Chris Jericho has now chimed that there is only one main event for the upcoming show, and it's Omega vs. Jericho. Jericho challenged Omega – via video – at NJPW Power Struggle in November.
