Cedric Alexander won the ‘big one’ at Wrestlemania 34, and he is the new Cruiserweight Champion.
Alexander won the match after connecting with three spinning back elbows and the Gut Check; he narrowly avoided losing the bout a few moments earlier by getting his foot on ropes after Ali hit a 054, and rolled away from a second one. This is Alexander’s first championship reign of any kind in WWE.
