Lio Rush lost his smile and became a completely different competitor
After taunting Cedric Alexander, Lio Rush looked to pick up another impressive win. The Man of the Hour has yet to be pinned or submitted on 205 Live and planned on being Cedric Alexander's fourth loss in a row.
Morrell wanted a grappling match with Rush, who obliged, only to be surprised by his opponent's speed. Morrell picked up the first bit of offense in the match, connecting with a huge enziguri, driving Rush into the corner. Rush chased Morrell across the ring but was met by a boot to the jaw.
Before he could make his way to the top rope, Rush knocked him off with an enziguri, sending him crashing to the floor.
Rush dominated Morrell from here on out. Rush connected with the Final Hour for a quick victory.
Results: Lio Rush defeated Josh Morrell via pinfall.
Rush's smile faded away quickly when he was stunned by Morrell early in the bout. The M.O.T. H. seemed to be even more dangerous when he loses his arrogance.
After the match, he went back to his cocky ways, dedicating his win to Cedric Alexander. Rush said that he respected Alexander's work ethic, but nobody works harder than the 23-year-old piece of gold. He finished off by saying that the Age of Alexander will meet his Final Hour.
