Jordan Devlin & Trent Seven Segment 

Jordan Devlin: You know, a few months ago I started this Cruiserweight Championship Open Challenge for one reason. To cement my legacy with this title. When you are the ace of an entire division, you live your life to a certain standard. So, it’s not enough for me that I’m the longest reigning Cruiserweight Champion of all-time. I want the most title defenses. I want to go down in history as the greatest wrestler under 205 this company has ever seen.

Trent Seven: You’re right. There’s no denying, Jordan Devlin, that everything that you just said is fact. You are cementing a legacy. You have beaten everyone that’s been put in your path. You have had the title for what? Nearly a year now. That’s an incredibly impressive un. Now, you talk about challenges and the open challenge and dominating this 205 Division, the Cruiserweight Division is yours. Well, maybe not only do you need a new challenger, maybe the division needs a new challenger. And maybe Trent Seven needs a challenge himself. So, crazy idea, I’m just going to throw it out there for you. How about I trim down, I get to under 205. And when I do, you put that title on the line against me? And I’ll be the new challenger to step into your league.

Jordan Devlin: Let me get this straight. You’re going to get to under 205? I’ll tell you what, mate, okay. If you can ditch the vegan kebabs and drop what I’m guessing must me be more than at least 30 pounds, then, yeah, you can have a shot at me for this title. Good luck.

Devlin pats Seven on the stomach. Seven delivers a big haymaker to close. Seven tells Devlin that he will make it under 205.
