Cedric The Cruiserweight

Making his first appearance here on Beefcakes of Wrestling is 28 year old Cedric Alexander from Charlottesville, North Carolina, USA. Alexander's wrestling career began in 2009 with independent promotion Ring Of Honor (ROH).  The 5'10", 230 pound high-flyer started out in a tag team called C&C Wrestle Factory with Caprice Coleman. In 2014, he went solo and stayed on with ROH until he announced his departure from the company in May 2016. A month later, WWE announced Alexander's participation in its first Cruiserweight Classic tournament. Alexander won his first match against France's Clement Petiot aka Tristan Archer. He was eliminated from the tournament when he lost to Japan's Kota Ibushi in July 2016. Alexander made his debut on WWE's RAW on September of the same year.
