Neville then played around with Gallagher, kicking and stomping as he went, before locking in a Camel Clutch. ‘Gentleman’ Jack hit back with a dropkick which sent Neville rolling out of the ring. Gallagher followed it up with a middle-rope splash onto Neville.

Gallagher dragged Neville back into the ring and deposited Neville on the top turnbuckle before climbing up himself and hitting a top rope belly-to-back suplex. Neville kicked out of the ensuing pin at two and a half.

A desperate Neville deposited Gallagher in the tope rope before hitting Gallagher with a nasty snap German Suplex. Neville followed it up with a Phonix Splash but Gallagher somehow kicked out of it. Neville showed disdain and he kicked around Gallagher who was trying to get back on his feet.

Gallagher then hit Neville out of nowhere with two headbutts before collapsing on Neville for the cover. Neville kicked out at two and a half once again. Gallagher then went for his finisher, the running dropkick in the corner but Neville moved out of the way and hit Gallagher with a Superkick. Gallagher regrouped and deposited Neville on the top rope and hit another headbutt as Neville looked like he was out cold.

Gallagher looked to capitalize but Neville knocked him off the apron and hit a beautiful Red Arrow to pin him.

Neville def. Jack Gallagher

This match may be a turning point for the Cruiserweight Divison. It was the best match that the division has seen since its inception and got a prolonged “this is awesome” chant. And, it was awesome.
