Cruiserweight Classic 19

 

April 8, 2018 – New Orleans, Louisiana

Cedric Alexander def. Mustafa Ali {WWE Cruiserweight Championship Match}
WrestleMania has become the weirdest event. In general it doesn’t wrap up long-running feuds and it mostly serves as a mega event where big matches that are set up for the sake of it play out in front of massive crowds that don’t make enough noise to fill the giant space and make an impact on camera. Case in point, 205 Live for months focuses on a tournament that leads to this match, and it ends up on the kickoff show in front of fans that don’t treat it like it matters. It’s a real shame, because both guys brought a lot of passion to their performances, and even Drake Maverick looked emotional when giving Alexander the title after the match. Because of the weird vibe, the match couldn’t sustain its energy outside of the first couple of minutes. Alexander won in 12:16 with the Lumbar Check. ***
