Rumored Challenger For Cruiserweight Title At WWE Backlash

It appears that we know who will be challenging for the Cruiserweight Title at the next two upcoming WWE PPV events.

On the latest episode of Wrestling Observer Radio (transcript via RingsideNews), Dave Meltzer spoke about a possible Cruiserweight Championship match at WWE Backlash. The longtime pro wrestling journalist noted that Mustafa Ali will likely challenge Alexander at the Greatest Royal Rumble event while Buddy Murphy will challenge for the title at the Backlash pay-per-view event.

“It will probably be Mustafa Ali vs. Alexander for Saudi Arabia and probably Buddy Murphy if he can make weight against Cedric Alexander for Backlash, I guess.”
