Akira Tozawa def. Isaiah “Swerve” Scott in an NXT Interim Cruiserweight Title Tournament Match
Akira Tozawa is the first man to claim victory in the Interim NXT Cruiserweight Championship Tournament. The Stamina Monster kicked off the tournament by knocking off Isaiah “Swerve” Scott in Group B action.
Demonstrating why he’s a former Cruiserweight Champion, Tozawa impressed in the highly physical bout against the promising Scott to claim a 1-0 start.
Tozawa somehow found a way to kick out of a cover after Scott’s House Call. Moments later, he folded “Swerve” up with a brutal suplex to the turnbuckle before finishing him off with a senton bomb from the top rope.
