#5 Cedric Alexander vs Kalisto
Winner: Cedric Alexander
Rating: 3.5/5
WWE Cruiserweight Champion Cedric Alexander had his first title defence when he squared off against Kalisto in the second match of the event. You'll never find cruiserweight wrestlers involved in a bad bout, and this match was no exception.
Right from the get-go, the clash was fast-paced with both getting equal offences on the other. There was never a dull moment in the match, and the crowd reacted to most of the spectacular high-flying action from the two competitors. After reversing a Salida del Sol, the champion countered with a beautiful midair Lumbar Check and pinned Kalisto to retain his title.
The 205 Live performers have never backed down from giving their all, and if this epic contest was any indication, we are sure in for more astonishing matches on grand platforms.
