Neville Promo
Neville made his way to the ring to open Main Event, mic in hand. He quickly started running his mouth, claiming that he is the King of the Cruiserweights, and had he been in the Cruiserweight Classic, he would've won the whole thing. Perkins was not going to sit back and take this, coming out to the ring to exchange verbal barbs. Eventually, it was agreed that the two men would meet at Elimination Chamber in a non-title match. Neville then tried to jump the champ, but TJ saw it coming and drove Neville from the ring, standing tall heading into their match.
Carmella vs Natalya
Carmella had her boys, Enzo and Big Cass, backing her up for this match, but Natalya had back up in the form of her husband, former WWE Champion Tyson Kidd. Carmella got going early against the former SmackDown Women's champ, even locking in the Code of Silence, but she couldn't force a submission. Natalya stayed calm and picked Carmella apart with vicious offense, locking in her own submission hold, the Sharpshooter, to pick up the win.
Winner: Natalya
The Ascension vs Hype Bros
Konnor and Viktor looked to get back in the title picture, facing Zack Ryder and the debuting Mojo Rawley. The experience of The Ascension played in their favor, as they isolated Ryder. Zack proved to be a little slippery, escaping to tag in Mojo, who cleaned house. Ryder caught Konnor with a Rough Ryder, and that was all she wrote.
Winners: Hype Bros
Cruiserweight Battle Royal
This was a big six man battle royal, the winner receiving a future Cruiserweight Title match. Rich Swann was first out, as the debuting Will Ospreay made a big impact. Zack Sabre Jr and Cedric Alexander would both follow, as Kota Ibushi and Ricochet each score eliminations. Ospreay and Ricochet realized that Ibushi was the biggest threat, and worked together to take out the Golden Star. That left the two newest members of the cruiserweight division, Will Ospreay and Ricochet, to fight it out for the title shot. In the end, it was the Aerial Assassin, Will Ospreay, that made a hell of a debut, eliminating Ricochet to put the entire division on notice.
Winner: Will Ospreay
Will Ospreay now targets the Cruiserweight Title, but the champion is busy with his new foe, Neville. Can the Man That Gravity Forgot prove that he is the King of the Cruiserweights? Tune in this weekend for Elimination Chamber.
