Austin Aries def. TJP
The No. 1 contender to the WWE Cruiserweight Championship, Austin Aries is set to face Neville at WWE Extreme Rules, but TJP – hoping to secure his own title opportunity – looked to finish what he started a few weeks ago and sideline A-Double with a knee injury.
Aries wasted little time going after TJP, keeping The Duke of Dab ducking outside the ring and trying to recalibrate strategies. With retribution on his mind, A-Double was relentless in his offense, but TJP targeted the injured knee of his opponent to capture momentum.
Showing his incredible resilience and keeping laser focus on his WWE Cruiserweight Championship opportunity at WWE Extreme Rules, A-Double continued to take the fight to TJP. Unfortunately for Aries, the intensity of the bout left the No. 1 contender to the WWE Cruiserweight Championship favoring his knee and potentially injuring his elbow and shoulder.
Throwing caution to the wind, Aries pressed forward with high-risk maneuvers. Refusing to let up himself, TJP applied his patented kneebar, nearly securing the win until A-Double applied The Last Chancery for the submission victory.
Immediately after the match, WWE Cruiserweight Champion Neville attacked, unleashing a brutal assault on Aries’ knee. Evening the odds, Gentleman Jack Gallagher – with William the Third in tow – made his way to the ring and fended off The King of the Cruiserweights. However, the damage may have been done, raising doubts about A-Double’s condition for WWE Extreme Rules.
