Holy shit. The Cruiserweight Classic Finale was one of if not the best night of live wrestling I have ever experienced. This show started at 10, turned it to 11, 12 and stayed in that range all night. Even the tag match which was total filler kept up the pace. These guys knew the spot they had and it was amazing. I don't even know if I could pick a favorite match of the night, it was all crazy.
Here's some of my pictures from the show:
Waiting for the show to start:
The trophy:
Match #1 : Gran Metalik vs Zack Sabre Jr.
Gran Metalik wins!
Keeping it going with Ibushi vs TJ Perkins
My sole attempt at an action shot, Ibushi flies!
TJP advances!
Ciampa and Gargano vs Dar and Alexander
Gargano and Ciampa with the win
And now for the finals....TJP vs Gran Metalik
A wild Triple H appears! He's apparently a babyface authority figure here.
and this match is now to crown the first new Cruiserweight Champion!
and your winnner....TJP!
I'll admit, I was rooting for Sabre because I love the technical style, but TJP was the right choice here. The biggest story of the night IMO, is TJP winning over this crowd. He was boo'd heavily at the start of the night because he won over Swann and Gargano, but he was cheered by the end of it. It was an amazing night to experience live.
