Oney Lorcan def. Ariya Daivari
With both Ariya Daivari and Oney Lorcan vying for a Cruiserweight Championship opportunity, their rivalry intensified during a Fatal 5-Way Match two weeks ago when Lorcan struck The Persian Lion in the ear, resulting in six stitches. As two of the hardest hitters in the Cruiserweight division, they knew they could only settle their differences in the squared circle.
Feeding off the energy of the WWE Universe, Lorcan set the pace with a crossbody splash before returning to a more deliberate technical offense to keep Daivari grounded until The Persian Lion retreated to the outside and taunted his opponent.
After the competitors re-entered the ring, Daivari took down Lorcan with a neckbreaker and a lariat, though the effects of the punishment doled out to his arm was clearly affecting his performance.
The two threw resounding strikes at one another that echoed throughout the arena. Fully in control of the match, Daivari attempted his patented Lion Splash, but Lorcan rolled away and dished out intense strikes and a massive running European uppercut that left Daivari reeling.
Dropping Daivari with a Northern Lights suplex and a blockbuster, Lorcan fed off the energy of the WWE Universe and attempted his signature Half and Half. Daivari countered and fought back, but Lorcan focused his attacks on Daivari’s injured arm and nearly secured victory following a standing armbar.
The Fury of 205 Live unleashed huge chops on Daivari, but he soon found himself locked into his wily rival’s Million Dollar Dream. Lorcan’s attempts to reverse the hold left him flattened by a Persian drop. With victory in sight, Daivari executed the Lion Splash, but he could not immediately secure the pinfall as he clutched his injured arm. This allowed Lorcan ample time to recover and reverse Daivari’s pin into one of his own to claim an epic victory.
