New Cruiserweight Champion Crowned On RAW
Enzo Amore is no longer the realest champion in the room.
After drawing the ire of many in the Cruiserweight division and RAW general manager Kurt Angle, Amore lost his title after being defeated by Kalisto in the main event of RAW. The match, which was a lumberjack match, had it all: lumberjacks attacking each other, superplexes being hit onto the cruiserweight division and even Mustafa Ali preventing Amore from retaining his title. Below is the ending of the match, taken from Fightful's live coverage of the October 9 edition of RAW.
Kalisto traps Enzo on the top rope and he superplexes him onto the cruiserweight on the arena floor, Kalisto throws Enzo back in the ring. Kalisto goes for his finisher and Enzo counters with an eat defeat, Enzo goes for the pin and Mustafa Ali breaks it all up. Enzo gets angry and he drops Ali with a clothesline, Enzo then crotches Kalisto on the top rope. Kalisto hits Enzo with his finisher from the top rope for the three count.
Winner: Kalisto, your new WWE Cruiserweight Champion
Below are some highlights of the title match.
This is Kalisto's first WWE Cruiserweight title. Kalisto is a former NXT Tag Team champion and United States champion. Kalisto joined WWE's cruiserweight roster on October 2. Amore's reign as champion lasted a little more than two weeks after beating Neville at the No Mercy pay-per-view.
