The exact same could be said for Gran Metalik.

As Máscara Dorada, he tore it up in CMLL and New Japan before signing on with WWE as part of the Cruiserweight Classic. Metalik is still only 29 years old too, so it's criminal that he's being wasted like he is on 205 Live.

To date, he hasn't managed a match as good as ones against Kenny Omega at New Japan's Invasion Attack 2015 (check it out) or as part of the promotion's 'Best Of Super Juniors' events in WWE. Why even have him on the roster if creative don't know how best to use Metalik?

This tournament could be the making of Metalik. Provided he's not used as cannon fodder in the first round and allowed to work the style that suits him better than WWE's slower Cruiser approach, the decorated Mexican will be one of the Network special's highlights.
