Six-Man Cruiserweight Match Added To WWE Hell In A Cell 2016 Kickoff
High-flying, technical, and hard-hitting styles will all be on display.
T.J. Perkins will be defending the WWE Cruiserweight Championship against Brian Kendrick at Hell in a Cell, but that won't be the evening's only bit of action from the division. As announced on WWE.com on Wednesday afternoon, the Pay-Per-View event's kickoff show will feature Cedric Alexander, Lince Dorado, and Sin Cara taking on Tony Nese, Drew Gulak, and Ariya Daivari in six-man tag team action.
Since the cruiserweights returned to Raw on September 19, all six of the men involved in the match have played a role on the red brand. Sin Cara, a former NXT Tag Team Champion, joined the division after years in the tag team ranks, while the other five men arrived off stellar performances in the Cruiserweight Classic. Alexander, especially, dazzled fans in a match with Kota Ibushi, leading many to call it the best of the tournament and declare him a future Cruiserweight Champion.
The match is sure to have interesting implications on the future of the division, and is guaranteed to feature plenty of exciting action. Hell in a Cell's kickoff show airs live on the WWE Network this Sunday at 7:00 PM ET.
