Jake Atlas def. Ariya Daivari via disqualification
Jake Atlas looked to be closing in on a hard-earned victory against Ariya Daivari on the historic 200th episode of 205 Live, but his night suddenly took a sharp turn for the worse.
Atlas defeated the 205 Live Original by disqualification, but the win came with a steep price, as he was suddenly ambushed by Tony Nese, who was seemingly seeking vengeance after his recent loss to Atlas.
Sporting a new mean streak, Atlas started the match by trading haymakers with Daivari Dinero and loudly challenging Daivari to strike him in the face.
Daivari eventually slowed the bout to a more methodical pace and took control with a couple of stinging chops that turned his foe’s chest red before following up with a savage DDT for a long two-count.
Atlas had Daivari reeling with a back body drop, a German Suplex and a wicked kick to the jaw, but Daivari narrowly kicked out, and Nese soon bolted to the ring.
Atlas didn’t see it coming, as the former Cruiserweight Champion never broke stride and leveled his rival with a devastating Running Nese. Daivari took advantage of the situation by drilling a defenseless Atlas with his Hammerlock Lariat.
