Mustafa Ali vs. Drew Gulak
Gulak came out with his megaphone, talking about his “No Fly Zone” but a pissed off Mustafa Ali flew over the top rope to take him down before the match even started. Ali went right after him with rights and lefts, brawling all over the ringside area and throwing in a few kicks for good measure. Gulak caught him coming back into the ring, and went to work in the corner, but Ali flipped over him and connected with a nice elbow shot. He went up to the top rope, but Gulak threw him hard to the floor, forcing the high-flyer down clutching his knee. Drew worked him over back in the ring, slowing things down with holds for several minutes. Finally Ali made a comeback, but came off the top rope with a flying crossbody, and Gulak rolled him through into a pin for the three-count. Winner: Drew Gulak
– After the match, Drew Gulak cut a promo backstage and talked about how his “No Fly Zone” is paying off. He says he didn’t showboat at all, and it worked out for him, while Mustafa Ali did a bunch of high-flying and paid the price.
– Austin Aries made his way out to the ring, with a banana. By the time he actually made it to the ring, he no longer had a banana. So…there’s that. Aries said ever since last night, his DMs have been blowing up because he made Neville tap out. He leads the crowd in chanting that Neville tapped out, over and over again, then rolled the footage from Raw last night just to add insult to injury. He then rolled the footage again, and when a fan said they didn’t see it properly, he ran it a third time in slow motion. After finally hearing enough, the Cruiserweight Champion Neville made his way out and was greeted by a loud “you tapped out” chant. He trashes Aries for how he’s handling himself in the face of a “one in a lifetime” accomplishment, and calls him a disease that will be eradicated at Extreme Rules. TJ Perkins runs out from the crowd and attacks Aries from behind. They beat him down in the ring, with Neville locking in the Rings of Saturn as TJP kicks away at the injured knee. A heard of referees rush the ring to break things up, and finally get the champion to release his hold.
