Enzo Amore def. Cedric Alexander, Gran Metalik, Tony Nese & The Brian Kendrick
Enzo Amore has certainly made a splash since his arrival on WWE 205 Live and has teamed with Cedric Alexander and Gran Metalik resulting in two victories in recent weeks, despite The Certified G’s questionable tactics. However, Enzo, Alexander and Gran Metalik put their friendship on hold after being presented the opportunity of a lifetime, as the three Superstars faced each other, Tony Nese and The Brian Kendrick in a Fatal 5-Way Elimination Match to determine who will challenge Neville for the WWE Cruiserweight Championship at WWE No Mercy.
When the opening bell sounded, Nese, Kendrick, Metalik and Alexander all tuned their attention to Enzo. The Certified G quickly left the ring, leaving the other four Superstars to battle.
Alexander and Nese battled back and forth, both showing that their rivalry was still in full effect. As “The Premier Athlete” threw Alexander from the ring, Enzo attempted to pin Nese. The plan backfired when Kendrick suplexed Enzo to the floor.
From there, Nese – soon joined by The Man with a Plan – started to dismantle The Realest Guy in the Room. It looked as though Enzo would be the first eliminated, but he briefly rallied, only to be taken down once more by Nese and Kendrick.
The WWE Universe rose to their feet following an incredible Spanish Fly by Alexander on Metalik. The jaw-dropping feat was soon surpassed, as Nese, Kendick, and Metalik executed a massive triple Superplex on Alexander.
Enzo took the brunt of the punishment when he was dropped onto announce table before being thrown over the table into the barricade.
Back inside the ring, Nese prepared to eliminate an exhausted Metalik with his running knee but was caught in a Lumbar Check and eliminated by Alexander. Focusing his attention on Metalik, Alexander attempted to secure victory, fending off Kendrick in the process. The lucha libre sensation tried to mount an offense, but Alexander countered a handspring into another Lumbar Check to eliminate Gran Metalik.
The Brian Kendrick then saw his opportunity to strike and wisely tried to neutralize Alexander’s strength and speed by hitting Sliced Bread followed by a near-fall and then The Captain’s Hook. Despite Alexander breaking the hold by grabbing the ropes, The Man with a Plan quickly reapplied it, forcing his opponent to barely crawl across the ring and break the hold, pulling Kendrick out of the ring.
As Kendrick charged forward, Alexander picked him up and dropped him on the ring apron. This allowed Alexander to hit another Lumbar Check and take out Kendrick with his third elimination. However, Enzo immediately entered the ring, rolled up Alexander, grabbed a handful of tights and claimed victory.
Stunned by the defeat, both Alexander and the WWE Universe looked on as The Certified G celebrated his win and his opportunity to challenge Neville for the WWE Cruiserweight Championship at WWE No Mercy.
