This was fought evenly for a while until things started to break open later in the match. There were some very nice chains and some big moves. It was a nice combination of many styles, and it was a great showcase for what both of these men can do.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Backstage<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nTony Nese tells Mark Andrews that if anyone should get revenge on Drew Gulak, it&#8217;s Nese.

Gulak tried to keep Andrews on the mat and out of the air. He succeeded a lot, but Andrews did manage to use his speed to gain some short-lived advantages throughout the match. Gulak is definitely on a good path right now.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Ring Area<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nAfter the match, Gulak puts Andrews in the Gu-Lock.

Kendrick assures Maverick that his anger at Itami has passed.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Ring Area<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nDrake Maverick heads to the ring. Nothing made him prouder than being named GM of 205 Live, that was until seeing Cedric Alexander and Mustafa Ali tear down the house in the Superdome. Maverick ontroduces the new Cruiserweight Champ, Cedric Alexander.<\/p>\n<p>In the ring, Cedric talks about the &#8220;you sign Cedric&#8221; chant at the Cruiserweight Classic. Thanks to support like like, Cedric is now the Cruiserweight Champ. As he thanks the fans, Mustafa Ali heads to the ring. Ali has something to say, and he wants to say it to Cedric&#8217;s face. Ali tells Cedric that he doesn&#8217;t just deserve the title, he earned it. Ali also says he&#8217;s in line with everyone else for a title shot.<\/p>\n<p>Buddy Murphy then enters the ring and attacks Cedric from behind. Drake Maverick is furious.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Show Impressions<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nA good show with two solid matches, the promise of the return of Brian Kendrick, and a rather unsurprising but fine challenger for the new champ.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Match of the Night<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<strong>Kalisto vs Akira Tozawa<\/strong><br \/>\nI liked both matches, but I think I liked this one a little more.
