New Japan will this year run the annual “DESTRUCTION” major show at Kobe World Hall in late September instead of at Sumo Hall in October. This is because the scheduled Sumo Hall show in October is going to be called “KING OF PRO WRESTLING” this year and possibly in the future. Before “DESTRUCTION ’12″ will be a tour directly building up to it.
