Following the Captain's Challenge match last week, Drake Maverick met with Humberto Carrillo and Oney Lorcan in his office. Both men survived the ten-man tag team elimination match, essentially giving them both a win over the Cruiserweight Champion Drew Gulak.
In order to determine Gulak's next challenger, Maverick decided to pit Carrillo and Lorcan against each other in tonight's main event. The winner will face the former Catch Point member at Clash of Champions for the Cruiserweight Championship.
We kicked off tonight with a one-on-one match. Ariya Daivari, at the moment, is a suspect in the attack that left Gran Metalik laid out a few weeks ago. Though Metalik has recovered, he doesn't remember who attacked him. However, Kalisto believes Daivari was responsible, and challenged the Persian Lion to a match.

Daivari has definitely been trying to drive a wedge between the Lucha House Party, telling Lince Dorado that the rest of Lucha House Party is dead weight to him. Is it possible that his words actually connected with Dorado? Was the Golden Lynx the one to attack Metalik? Tonight, Kalisto hoped to beat some kind of confession out of Ariya Daivari.

Kalisto was tied up in a rear chin lock, left on his side in the middle of the mat. He fought back to his feet and dazed Daivari with a jawbreaker, only for the Persian Lion to respond with a Double A spinebuster.

Last week, Tony Nese was eliminated from the Captain's Challenge match by Oney Lorcan and his Half-and-Half Suplex. In a backstage interview, Nese said that regardless of what happened last week, he still plans on regaining the Cruiserweight Championship by any means necessary. However, it looks like just being a Premier Athlete isn't doing the trick, so he'll have to change up his strategy, a similar message that we heard from the current Cruiserweight Champion back in May.
The Singh Brothers cut a promo backstage saying that they haven't lived up to their hype. They need to go watch some more Bollywood footage and find some real inspiration, but they'll be back soon and will become the greatest tag team on 205 Live.
Oney Lorcan vs Humberto Carrillo
Lorcan and Carrillo shook hands before starting off this #1 contender's match. Lorcan had the power advantage and tried to trap the handsome high-flyer in the middle of the ring.

A waist lock from Lorcan served to exhaust Carrillo early. He broke out, but a handspring back elbow was countered with a running uppercut from Lorcan. Hanging him up on the ropes gut first, Lorcan brought Carrillo back down to the ground and locked in the waist lock again. He switched to the body scissors and added a sleeper hold to try to finish Carrillo quickly.

Still, another knee to the midsection and a kick to the ribs left Carrillo gasping for air. Carrillo kicked out, and once again was trapped in a waist lock. He made it to his feet and blocked another Half-and-Half attempt. Lorcan pelted his back with an elbow and went for a back suplex.
