Noam Dar dominated the majority of the match and his time in control kind of slowed things down. Whenever Swann took control the pace picked up a little. The finish was fairly sudden, but the finishing move was fun to watch.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Ring Area<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nFrom the announcers table, Corey Graves conducts a video interview with TJ Perkins and Neville. Neville says that the only reason he wasn&#8217;t the first Cruiserweight Champ is because he wasn&#8217;t in the Cruiserweight Classic. He says Perkins will always come in second to &#8220;The King of the Cruiserweights.&#8221; Perkins says Neville will never be as good as he thinks he is. Just like he fell from prominence after losing the NXT Title, Neville will fall again after losing the Cruiserweight Title.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Video<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nFootage of Gran Metalik competing against TJ Perkins in the finals of the Cruiserweight Classic.

Gulak tried to spoil Metalik&#8217;s 205 Live debut by attacking as soon as the bell rang. He did an okay job of avoiding Metalik at first, but this was really a showcase of Metalik&#8217;s flying abilities. Gulak had some good, simple counters and effective moves, but in the end this was Metalik&#8217;s match. The only blemish on the match was when Metalik slipped while attempting a second-rope springboard.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Backstage<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nBrian Kendrick asks Akira Tozawa about being his protege.

Perkins started the match in complete control, showing some nice technical skills and frustrating Neville. Neville then took control, slowing the pace and using his power. Perkins came back with some big moves including a springboard DDT, and he started working on Neville&#8217;s arm very convincingly. The final segment of the match had both men fighting pretty evenly, and the finish was good and convincing.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Ring Area<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nAfter the match, Jack Gallagher runs out to the ring. Neville stomps him and throws William the Third out of the ring. Gallagher comes back with a few European uppercuts and a headbutt. Neville exits the ring and backs away while Gallagher puts the Cruiserweight belt on his own shoulder.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Show Impressions<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nThe first two matches were fine, but the main event made this a good show. Definitey worth watching. I also enjoyed the exchange between Tozawa and Kendrick, and the interview with Neville and Perkins was also pretty good.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Match of the Night<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<strong>TJ Perkins vs Neville<\/strong><br \/>\nEasily the best match. Perkins showed a lot in this one, and Neville showed how much he can dominate. Great match for both guys.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An entertaining episode of 205 Live featuring the debut of Gran Metalik and a great main event with TJ Perkins facing the Cruiserweight Champ and The King of the Cruiserweights, Neville.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":2067,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1128,297,622],"tags":[1129,892,463,329,980,535,546,903,872,536,932,516,737,513,930,776,693,888,7],"class_list":["post-2066","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-205-live","category-show-results","category-wwe","tag-205-live","tag-akira-tozawa","tag-alicia-fox","tag-austin-aries","tag-brian-kendrick","tag-corey-graves","tag-danilo-anfibio","tag-drew-gulak","tag-gran-metalik","tag-greg-hamilton","tag-jack-gallagher","tag-jason-ayers","tag-mauro-ranallo","tag-neville","tag-noam-dar","tag-rich-swann","tag-ryan-tran","tag-tj-perkins","tag-wwe"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2066","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2066"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2066\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2068,"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2066\/revisions\/2068"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2067"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2066"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2066"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2066"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
