[10.0] "By 22 he'd won every title other than the Dream Gate. Off on a US excursion at the moment, he was one of the standouts of RED and as long as he doesn't enjoy his trips outside of Japan too much, I can see him as a future Dream Gate champion before he's 25 easily. Got over like rover in a very short time and continues to impress. SBK could easily be the Ace of Dragon Gate for the next 10-15 years."
[6.0] "This kid came out of absolutely nowhere, going from ab impressive but generic DG rookie to one of, if not the most entertaining and dominant member of top heel unit R. E. D. Not only did he show immediate comfort playing a cocky, grimy heel character despite having only JUST over a year of wrestling experience, but he also got an absolute mega-push by beating many DG legends and long-term veterans in quick succession following his heel turn. His in-ring work has been very solid; nothing great, but good all-around and VERY impressive considering HE'S ONLY BEEN WRESTLING FOR ONE YEAR. This sort of kayfabe growth is extremely rare, but it implies that the company must really see him as a future top star, hence I'm really excited to see what heights Kento climbs to in the next 2 years. I'll revisit my rating in a few years time and update it accordingly after he's had even more time to improve, but I'll say that I have great hopes for Kento. SBK! SBK!"
"New big strong boy of DG. Man, I love him. I`m absolutely sure in his bright future. With proper booking Kobune will find his place in DG in a couple years for sure."
