When we think of the inaugural Cruiserweight Classic Tournament, one of the last names we think of is Fabian Aichner, a man who was eliminated in the very first round of the tournament by Jack Gallagher. This week, he took on Kassius Ohno in a singles match, and a new star was born.

The Italian showcased his vast high-flying repertoire, as Mauro Ranallo expressed utter shock, wondering whether these men were Cruiserweights or Heavyweights. Aichner has bulked up since the tournament and did not miss a beat as he took on Ohno, one of the best wrestlers in the world.
There is immense potential in this Italian star, to be even bigger than 205 Live. Let's hope that this was the first step to a massive career. Kudos to Ohno for making a new star, this week, with his incredible in-ring work.
