At WWE Payback, Austin Aries will have another opportunity to expel The King of the Cruiserweights from his throne when he challenges Neville for the WWE Cruiserweight Championship in a WrestleMania rematch.

Since his return at Roadblock: End of the Line and winning the WWE Cruiserweight Championship at Royal Rumble, Neville is undefeated in singles competition. The King of the Cruiserweights has vanquished all challengers and holds true the claim that without him, the Cruiserweight division would fall into obscurity.

However, one of Neville’s closest calls as titleholder came against Aries at The Ultimate Thrill Ride. Returning from injury and immediately setting his sights on Neville, A-Double soon earned the opportunity to challenge The King of the Cruiserweights. An intense battle nearly saw the fall of the king, but Neville resorted to attacking Aries’ surgically repaired orbital socket to walk off The Grandest Stage of Them All with the Cruiserweight Title still in his possession.
Refusing to accept defeat, Aries overcame Gentleman Jack Gallagher, Mustafa Ali and TJ Perkins in a high-stakes Fatal 4-Way Match on the first WWE 205 Live after WrestleMania, earning a second chance to dethrone The King of the Cruiserweights.

Will Neville resort to questionable tactics to defeat Aries again, or will A-Double persevere to claim the WWE Cruiserweight Championship? Find out at WWE Payback, streaming live Sunday, April 30, at 8 ET/5 PT, on the award-winning WWE Network.

I think Neville retains but down the line we'll get a 3-way with Perkins/Aries/Neville and that's the night Aries will win it

Loved their Wrestlemania match, can only hope that this will be just as good, even though I expect more sheningans here, but Neville should retain in the end.

These guys are gonna steal the show! I hope Neville retains as well :)

They put up a great match at Mania. If Austin Aries doesn't win this it won't make any sense, him staying away from the ring for months, returning only to lose twice to Neville on PPV? Nah, he's definitely getting a run with the CW title. Good for him.

Same with Neville being too good to lose BUT AA already lost and since CW is the step child of the company, I don't think they can build a real proper storyline without making Aries 'a loser'. + there are no other challenger on their level.

TJP wasn't on 205 at the end when Aries attacked Neville so that might be the hint that he will involve in some way. I don't know. I just want Aries to get the title, have a great run and eventually leave the division for better things (one can dream lol).

Neville is easily my favorite thing in all of the WWE right now. I hope he wins but will expect AA to win. I guess I'm cool with that because I'd watch them have rematches for the belt for the rest of the year if I could. I kind of expect TJP to accidentally cost Aries the belt which I guess is fine because it'll probably head to a 3-way match at whatever ppv is next for RAW.

Agree, Neville is the absolute best WWE has to offer in the ring and should be going for the WWE title. Austin Aries is not half the talent Neville is but since he proved that at Mania, it is obvious they will make Neville lose tonight. Pretty dumb as he is the king, and should just win again, like you said I could see him blazing through another 6 months with the title but WWE won't do that unfortunately. All of the cruiserweights, especially Aries who is not as good as most of them, are so beneath Neville that he really needs more. He should be going for bigger titles, as he is so much better than those holders too.

They have brilliant in ring chemistry and this match left me wanting one more balls to the walls finale where Aries wins.

I am so glad Neville has a place in WWE finally, he has been one of the few to really benefit from the Cruiserweight division.

I think its been the best thing in WWE for a while now. Aries looked great in the match, Neville looks like he's found his match and is just scraping by so one of two things happens next :

1) Aries wins next time and clean to finally become champion, freeing Neville up to move up the card.
2) Neville goes to extreme lengths to hang on to the title.

So far the MOTY for WWE matches. They improved from their Mania match was probably MOTN for Wrestlemania. I'm very excited for a 3rd match, and would hope Neville may come back to the main roster.
