For the majority of the bout, Tony Nese used his size and strength advantage to ground his opponent, but Kalisto did manage to get some flying in before it was all said and done. Buddy Murphy, who was in Nese’s corner at ringside, eventually got involved and caused the DQ.
Post-match, Murphy and Nese brawled at ringside with Lucha House Party, so it looks like that’s where those five are headed next.
Winner: Kalisto (via DQ)

Lio Rush, the 23-year-old piece of gold, defeated Colin Delaney in a bit of a squash. Rush spent the majority of the match talking trash with Akira Tozawa, who watched at ringside.
Post-match, Tozawa cut a promo asking Rush what he had done in 205 Live and if he really wanted to fight him. General Manager Drake Maverick stepped in before things got physical and set a match between the two for next week. Also booked for next week’s show is a rematch between Noam Dar and TJP.
Winner: Lio Rush

These two gentlemen beat the holy hell out of each other. Itami laid Alexander out early on with multiple kicks to the chest that looked and sounded brutal. Alexander brought some fire too, though, and Itami even got his mouth busted up at one point.
Alexander managed to hit a beautiful Lumbar Check outta nowhere to get the win, retaining his Cruiserweight Championship.
Winner: Cedric Alexander
