In his very first match as a Raw Superstar four months ago, Cedric Alexander fought the good fight against Cesaro and came up short. The tables turned in their latest matchup, and it was The Swiss Cyborg who found himself taking the L … though not before he gave Alexander a parting gift that may well haunt the former WWE Cruiserweight Champion down the stretch of the tournament.
Alexander was looking to keep his sea legs before the King of the Ring quarterfinals, and Cesaro was attempting to regain his after a first-round ouster at the hands of Samoa Joe. But long-term consequences also came into play, thanks to Cesaro’s ruthless attack on Alexander’s knee and ankle. Alexander powered through the pain, catching The Swiss Cyborg with a Lumbar Check out of nowhere, but the wisdom of that strategy may be up for question: Baron Corbin now has a big fat target that he won’t hesitate to exploit during the quarterfinals next week. Clearly, however, heart goes a long way, and unless that gives out, Alexander’s got a fighting chance.
