It’s 205 Live time everybody. This week’s show not only features Drew Gulak vs. Mustafa Ali and Jack Gallagher vs. Tony Nese, but it also includes the main event where Rich Swann will take on Neville. How good were these matches? Who was victorious? Let’s find out.

What Went Down

The show began with Rich Swann and Akira Tozawa talking backstage. Swann was talking about how he wanted to get back into cruiserweight championship contention. Titus O’Neil walked up. He presented Tozawa with a contract to the Titus Brand. Tozawa not only didn’t sign, but he didn’t say anything at all to Titus. Titus said he would present Tozawa with an offer he wouldn’t be able to refuse on RAW next week.

Jack Gallagher vs. Tony Nese

This was just your average 205 Live match. Austin Aries was shown watching the match on a TV backstage. Gallagher did some comedy early on such as his headstand in the corner. Nese then beat him up for awhile. Eventually, Gallagher hit a headbutt taking both men down momentarily. The finish came when Nese was in the corner with a “shoulder injury” after a missed moonsault. Gallagher walked toward him, but Nese popped up, threw him into the corner, and hit the Running Knee for the win.

Noam Dar was backstage Face-Timing Alicia Fox. Cedric Alexander walked up and said he wanted to be done with Dar and Fox. Dar told Cedric that if he didn’t leave 205 Live they would make his life a living hell. Dar also told him that he threw his bag into the river. Cedric then showed Dar his bag and let him know he got the wrong one. Ariya Daivari came up asking if anyone had seen his $15,000 bag.

They showed a video package recapping the feud between Mustafa Ali and Drew Gulak. This video package was actually quite good and it led to the match between the two.

Mustafa Ali vs. Drew Gulak

Gulak came out with a megaphone and proposed that their match be held in a no fly zone. Ali responded to this proposal by hitting a dive to the outside onto Gulak. This was a short match but it told a consistent story with their others. Ali ran wild early with some high flying offense. This backfired when he went to the top rope and was pushed down to the floor by Gulak, who took control with lots of holds. Ali eventually fought his way out of a headlock and made his comeback. The finish came when Ali went for a move from the middle rope, but was caught by Gulak. Gulak then tried to transition into a submission, but Ali was able to counter into a pin attempt for the win. So Ali won the match with technical offense instead of his usual high flying moves, which Drew Gulak has been protesting against every week.

Austin Aries was talking to Jack Gallagher backstage. Aries said since Gallagher had his back previously, that he would have Gallagher’s back going forward. The two then formed what Austin Aires referred to as a “loose affiliation.” 

Rich Swann was stopped by TJP backstage. TJP said that he didn’t appreciate the way Swann had spoken about his recent change of character, but regardless he wanted Swann to go out there and get revenge against Neville for jumping him before their match last week.

Akira Tozawa came out to a VIP seat that was given to him by the Titus Brand. 

Neville vs. Rich Swann

This was a really good match. They went back and forth early on. At one point they were fighting for control on the top rope when Swann pushed Neville off, who did a backflip and landed on his feet in the ring. After this Neville countered a frog splash attempt and rolled Swann to the outside where he beat him up all around ringside. Swann made his comeback after Neville rolled him back into the ring. He hit a superkick and an inverted michinoku driver for a nearfall. He then went up top and attempted the Phoenix Splash. Neville rolled out of the way and locked in the Rings of Saturn for the win.

Final Thoughts

This week’s 205 Live was pretty good. The main event was a really good match, which the crowd actually got into by the end. The rest of the show was alright, but nothing was really bad. That tends to be the theme with this show, but since the show itself is so short it is often easy to watch even if some of it is forgettable.

]]> WWE News and Rumors: Is 205 Live a FAILURE? /wwe-news-and-rumors-is-205-live-a-failure/ Tue, 24 Jan 2017 14:31:20 +0000 /?p=2488 Read more]]> Image result for 205 live

205 Live is a place where the cruiserweights get to show their real talent on-screen and are well directed towards a storyline, some which is also covered on Monday Night RAWs. After the success of CWC on WWE Network and a contrasting failure on RAW, WWE thought of making a separate show for the cruiserweights. But things don’t seem to be going well with 205 Live on the network.

PWMANIA.com reports:

The WWE Network numbers for the show have continued to trend downward and it’s become a talking point within the company.

Not only is the issue with people watching the show on The Network, another issue is that people in the arena are continuing to leave before the show airs and the staff at the event have to move people around so it doesn’t look empty on camera.

It should be interesting to see if they end up moving the show before SmackDown airs or not. It was speculated by many that ultimately it would happen.

If this is the case than it should also not come as a big surprise if the company decides to stop the show ultimately. Many sources claim that 205 Live was seen as an extended hour of SD Live but having it on a full slotted 2 hrs of SD Live was a difficult task although it would have provided more legitimacy to the cruiserweights, but keeping it as a separate show is not ringing many bells.

Perry Saturn took to Facebook and asked fans to donate to a GoFundMe page as he’s just “a week or two” from being homeless.

This is the same campaign set up three months ago and as of this writing, they have raised $14,906 of a $100,000 goal.

Saturn has a GoFundMe page set up at this link.

Here is the Facebook Video Link:–
https://www.facebook.com/perrysaturn/videos/1165305306918391/

The description of the GoFundMe reads as follows:-

”Perry Saturn is known the world over as one of the best sports entertainers of the 20th and 21st century. He’s been a part of ECW, WCW and the WWE.

That kind of entertainment over a 25 year career has taken a significant toll. Perry is dealing with a grade “serious” traumatic brain injury, which causes the following problems:

1) Almost constant headaches
2) Sensitivity to light
3) Brain fog – losing time, basically
4) Inability to drive or work
5) Dimentia

Perry is in a position to get good medical care, but he’s strapped financially. He can’t work and his wife Lisa is a full time caregiver, essentially. They live within driving distance of his care but they need money to pay living expenses, medical bills, and to arrange reliable transportation that can make it through the winter.

This seems like a lofty goal, we know – but keep in mind each MRI is $2,500, each test is $1,000 – the money flows fast and in the wrong direction.

These are wonderful people who have hit hard times. If you can help, please do. If Perry has entertained you, please give a little back.
Help spread the word!”
