1. WWE Cruiserweight Title: Cedric Alexander (C) Vs. Kalisto

Result: Alexander counters the Salida del Sol to kill Kalisto with the Lumbar Check and retain the title (10:15).

Rating: The crowd was disappointingly dead for this one, though that didn't prevent the two from putting on by far the best match of the night.

The pacing was fantastically breakneck from start to finish, with both men working hard throughout and clearly relishing the opportunity to - gasp - wrestle a PPV match outside of the pre-show.

It honestly could've gone a little longer, but it was a highly entertaining cruiser sprint all the same, with a smart finish to boot. 7/10
