The inaugural WWE Cruiserweight Champion hasn’t been shy about his discontent with WWE 205 Live and his lack of opportunities, going so far as to tweet to SmackDown LIVE General Manager Paige about a potential move to the blue brand. Despite his assertions, The Duke of Dab had an opportunity to showcase his abilities against Christopher Guy.
The Fil-Am Flash channeled his frustration into a methodical and high-impact offense against his opponent, confidently attacking and taking the time to show off. As WWE 205 Live General Manager Drake Maverick watched from the locker room, Guy countered a Detonation Kick and enjoyed a fleeting moment of momentum. Unfortunately for Guy, TJP recovered and executed an emphatic Detonation Kick for the win.
After the match, The Duke of Dab claimed that he single-handedly revived the Cruiserweight division and wants a bigger challenge, claiming that he doesn’t think Maverick believes in his ability.
