This was outstanding. I'm honestly not entirely sure which was better between this match and the next one on the list.

Rest assured, I'll be looking at both again when reviewing my matches of the year in December.

For 205 Live, this really did have a big fight feel. Buddy Murphy was on a role coming into the match, and Champion and challenger traded high-paced offense as they tried to get the better of one another. Eventually, Murphy would work on Alexander's back.

One thing I appreciated about this match was that there were no finisher kickouts. Both men simply traded offense until Cedric Alexander would eventually hit his finisher and win the match.

The wrong man won in my opinion, as all the momentum was clearly on Murphy's side, but perhaps we can get an even better match in the future!
