Cedric Alexander def. Tony Nese

Cedric Alexander vs. Tony Nese: Raw, Jan. 15, 2018

The incredibly athletic Cedric Alexander goes up against The Premier Athlete in thrilling Cruiserweight action.

Enzo Amore retained the WWE Cruiserweight Title due to an injury and subsequent count-out loss to Cedric Alexander last week, but once again, Cedric has himself a second chance. And before the ascendant Cruiserweight officially challenges for the crown jewel of 205 Live at Royal Rumble, Alexander dispatched Enzo’s abdominally-gifted lieutenant Tony Nese — described as the “garlic” to Muscles Marinara and back in the good graces of The Zo Train following a brief excommunication.

He might just end up back in the doghouse. With Goldust once again providing emotional support, Alexander subjected Tony Abs to an in-ring mincing despite an impressive display by Nese. Enzo’s constant barking at ringside certainly energized Nese into the advantage… at least until Goldust lurked up behind the champion and sent him scrambling, cutting off Nese’s momentum and opening the door for an Alexander resurgence. Nese still held his opponent at arm’s length, thwarting the Lumbar Check at every turn until Cedric found an opening, reversing Nese’s pump-handle slam and finally executing his agonizing signature move.
