While 205 Live viewership remains in the gutter (presumably thanks to the damage done when Enzo Amore was a focal point of the show), there are plenty of Superstars on the Tuesday night show who deserve to be recognised among WWE's best. During the TLC Kickoff show, Buddy Murphy defended his Cruiserweight Championship against Cedric Alexander in what proved to be one heck of a match.

After Alexander hit the Lumbar Check, Murphy managed to get his foot on the bottom rope much to the shock of his opponent. As the champion recovered, he dropped Alexander on the turnbuckles and finished him off with Murphy's Law to retain the title he won in his home country of Australia. 

It's hard to say what comes next for the Cruiserweight Championship as Murphy has squared off most of 205 Live's big stars at this point and WWE definitely needs to shake things up moving into WrestleMania season. For now, though, expect WWE to tread water through the New Year.
