Buddy Murphy defeated Cedric Alexander at tonight's WWE Super Show-Down event in Australia to become the new WWE Cruiserweight Champion.
This is the first main roster title reign for Murphy, who received a big pop from his home country. Cedric won the title back at WrestleMania 34 by winning tournament finals over Mustafa Ali on the Kickoff pre-show.
