In a long show, ordering is key.

#2 Cruiserweight Championship: Cedric Alexander (c) vs. Dew Gulak (pre-show)

Cedric Alexander vs. Drew Gulak SummerSlam
Kickoff purgatory.

Ordinarily, this would serve as an ideal curtain-jerker for the main show. However, it's 205 Live, and we know by now that the pre-show is its unfortunate ceiling. This will certainly be the best match of the trio on the kickoff, and Gulak and Alexander should be given time to get the crowd excited as it still settles into the Barclays Center.

The Cruiserweight Championship match will make the crowd happy enough to overlook the probable poor quality of the next match on the card.
