10. Drew Gulak Vs. Oney Lorcan

Oney Lorcan and Drew Gulak formed two halves of a magnificent fatal four-way that first propelled the former into title contention earlier this year, but Lorcan had previously been doing his best work alongside Danny Burch or opposite Drew McIntyre on NXT in an effort to find his footing somewhere within the WWE system.

Astonishingly, he's managed to find it in time for the second biggest pay-per-view of 2019.

Lorcan almost certainly won't come up trumps against Gulak as the 205 Live steward continues his fresh tear through the Cruiserweight Division, but the main concern here is what it always is - where exactly on the card this match will be. The two will be campaigning to dodge the Kickoff, using their honest-to-goodness great work in recent months as exhibits of why they belong on the main show, but they'll be required to perform up to that standard if they make it.

The last time the company took a chance on giving the purple belt some shine, Tony Nese and Ariya Daivari sh*t the bed at Money In The Bank. This is a great opportunity to shift the paradigm.

Winner: Drew Gulak
