Making his return to in-ring action following a loss to Cedric Alexander last month that snapped his 205 Live undefeated streak, Lio Rush first addressed the WWE Universe and his opponent. Acknowledging that he usually has a few words before a match, The Man of the Hour instead skipped the trash talk and attacked his opponent.
With the match underway, Rush suddenly found himself on defense after absorbing a series of blows. However, the incredibly agile Rush quickly turned the tables with a bulldog on the outside of the ring before executing the Final Hour. Cleary irate from his opponent’s offensive flurry, The Man of the Hour unleashed his aggression with multiple punishing strikes followed by a second Final Hour before securing the pinfall victory.
