Cedric Alexander squares off against AJ Styles, and when the rest of The O.C. get involved, Alexander receives an unexpected assist.

If turnabout is fair play, then nobody is going to begrudge Cedric Alexander for jump-starting his match with AJ Styles just seconds after The Phenomenal One was laid low by a Stunner from “Stone Cold” Steve Austin. After all, it was Styles and The O.C. who ambushed the former WWE Cruiserweight Champion last week, debatably playing a part in costing Alexander a King of the Ring quarterfinal match against Baron Corbin.

But the rest of The O.C. had no intention of leaving Styles unguarded: Luke Gallows & Karl Anderson ambushed Alexander again mid-match, handing the former champion a disqualification win and teeing him up for a second beating that was only stopped by the unlikely — yet very welcome — arrival of The Viking Raiders, whose lingering issues with The O.C. from a few weeks back finally came to the fore. Erik & Ivar handedly helped Alexander dispatch the good brothers, leaving Styles & Co. with more questions than answers for the second straight time in a half hour.
