WWE 205 Live: Jack Gallagher to challenge Neville at Fastlane
It will be Englishman v Englishman for Cruiserweight Title!
Last Updated: 08/02/17 10:25am
Jack Gallagher will challenge fellow Englishman Neville for the WWE Cruiserweight Title at Fastlane next month after winning a Fatal Five-Way on 205 Live.
The Manchester-born star edged TJ Perkins, Cedric Alexander, Noam Dar and Mustafa Ali - the latter of whom earned a spot in the match by beating Ariya Daivari with a 450 Splash earlier in the night.
Gallagher leapt off the turnbuckle to take out each of his rivals while holding his trusty umbrella William, before pinning Perkins following a running dropkick to secure the victory.
Newcastle native Neville, who won the Cruiserweight Championship from Rich Swann at the Royal Rumble last month, then emerged, staring at Gallagher and holding up his title.
The Brits will now collide at Raw's Fastlane pay-per-view on Sunday March 5, an event you will be able to watch live on Sky Sports Box Office.
Former Cruiserweight Champion Perkins put in an impressive performance before falling to Gallagher, eliminating Alexander and Ali after Alexander had banished Scotsman Dar.
Tony Nese was scheduled to compete in the five-man bout but had to withdraw due to injury, hence why Ali and Daivari went one-on-one in a qualifying contest.
Elsewhere, The Brian Kendrick conquered Lince Dorado with his Captain's Hook submission move after kneeing his masked opponent in the gut as he attempted a Shooting Star Press.
Kendrick then called out one Japanese cruiserweight, Akira Tozawa, before another, Tajiri, appeared to spit his green mist in the Wizard of Odd's face.
