Although they don’t get a lot of camera time, the cruiserweights have found a way most weeks to get their storylines across.

For Cruiserweight Champion Neville and challenger Austin Aries, their storyline is rooted in a very simple basis: Who is the best wrestler in the division? Neville has been calling himself the King of the Cruiserweights, while A-Double has been a top performer in different companies for years, regardless of weight class.

The feud seemed destined to be a good one just given the talent of the wrestlers, but the personalities have gelled well, making this one that people should be looking forward to and hoping that it gets some time at Mania, and that it doesn’t end at Mania.
