3: Babyface and heel in the Cruiserweight Division
Ad
Not best friends like Jericho and Owens
The Cruiserweight Classic was a huge success on the WWE Network purely because of the fact that the niche hardcore audience prefers non-stop action to what is dubbed ‘sports entertainment’. But Monday Night Raw is a whole different ball game. The veteran Brian Kendrick has been acting heelish in his matches right from the time of the Cruiserweight Classic, but he won major babyface points after his eviction from the tournament and in ring hug fest with Daniel Bryan.
Today, shortly after a hard fought match between T.J. Perkins and Brian Kendrick, Kendrick would appear to be shaking Perkins’ hand, before attacking him. Not only does this establish Brian Kendrick as the top heel in the division, but also established T.J. Perkins as the top babyface by default. Both have personalities that fit better than simply ‘wrestling workers’.
