-On March 7, 2017 on a live telecast of "WWE 205 Live", Akira Tozawa was scheduled to face Brian Kendrick. After Tozawa was announced and in the ring, Kendrick came out and said Tozawa was scheduled to face "A" Brian Kendrick, not "The" Brian Kendrick so he brought out Cannon and introduced him as "A Brian Kendrick". Tozawa then defeated Cannon.
