TJP grabbed a mic and ran down Noam Dar, as well as the live crowd, before the match began. He’s one of 205 Live’s top heels at the moment and takes any opportunity to talk trash.
Continuing his dastardly ways, TJP attempted a cheap shot on Dar the moment the bell rang, but Dar was ready for it and got out of the way. The two then had a nice back-and-forth match featuring tons of awesome work on the ground. Both men are solid on the mat, but Dar’s left knee had sustained too much damage and he was forced to tap via a knee bar from TJP.
Winner: TJP
Drew Gulak vs. Danny Garcia (???)

Drew Gulak defeated Danny Garcia (???) via the Gu-Lock in less than a minute. Gulak has to be next in line to face off against Cedric Alexander for the Cruiserweight Championship.
Post-match, Gulak (along with Jack Gallagher and Brian Kendrick) cut a promo claiming that he was the champion that 205 Live needed. He claimed to be more than ready for Alexander, as he planned to make him tap the moment he stepped in the ring with him.
Winner: Drew Gulak
Lio Rush vs. Akira Tozawa

Lio Rush and Akira Tozawa tore it up in the main event of the evening. Rush is only 23, but he’s already fantastic at what he does, getting the win after a hard fought match via the Rush Hour.
Post-match, General Manager Drake Maverick announced a killer fatal 4-way for next week to determine the new number one contender for the Cruiserweight Championship. Mustafa Ali, Hideo Itami, Drew Gulak, and TJP will face off, with the winner earning a shot at the title.
Winner: Lio Rush
