MonteCarl Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 I don't know why they don't just do it "live to tape" BEFORE the Live SD begins. That way, the crowd is hyped because it's the first wrestling of the night and they're not burned out yet. A Cruiserweight hour would be the perfect "warm-up act" before the main show begins. Just seems so counterproductive to be doing it after all the "big name guys" have come out and done their show in front of a tired crowd, most of which are leaving the arena to beat the traffic.

How so. Given the number of times in the past that they've run with the "Alicia Fox's character is cray-cray", teasing another crazy heel turn is a fairly predictable development.

The Man Known as Dan Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 This was really really fun this week imo. Cedric/Gulak and Daivari/Gallagher were pretty damn great. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I'd rather see Nese in Neville's spot proclaiming himself "King of the cruiserweights" and paired off with Swann. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eivion Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 Very fun episode tonight. Gulak/Cedric was really good and I'm enjoying the stuff with Dar & Alicia. Neese/Ali was decent and one of Neese's better showings on the show. Daivari/Gallagher was good and a nice way to end the feud. I'm curious where they go with both now.

maciej Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Obviously that would have been better in front of a hotter crowd (like most matches), but Gallagher and Daivari did a pretty great job there. Getting that much silliness and some hate into the same match is an admirable accomplishment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Lord Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 I watched last weeks episode earlier and the video for the I Forfeit match was amazing. The cruiserweight division might be horribly booked, but I'll say the two videos they did for this match and Swann/Neville were pretty damn good. Gallagher vs. Daivari might be an early running for my top 10 with the WWE this year. It was a great back and forth and I loved the ending. If Darren Young won't use the Chickenwing, Gallagher has to as a finisher. It was perfect for him. I guess it's pretty much a forgone conclusion that Neville is winning the title at the Rumble. They really need some sort of standing of some sort because I don't want it to be Neville vs. Perkins next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rehabilitated Rick Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 Yeah they need to take this show somewhere else, tour the ballrooms, do something with it - honestly when you're getting ''Goldberg'', ''CM Punk'' and ''New Day'' chants during a fucking awesome Neville/Cedric match in front of a relatively hot crowd for the most part it's time to change direction, this isn't working and it's ruining my enjoyment of the show.

MonteCarl Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 The asshole I was sitting in front of started the Goldberg and the New Day chants. Most people around me had no interest in 205Live, and a lot seemed surprised it was even happening. If Cena/AJ wasn't the advertised dark main, I guarantee 80% of the building would've cleared out. As it was, maybe 20% left before/during 205Live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may be biased being into indy wrestling and nxt, so I rather deal with those crowds than the usual Raw/SD crowd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rehabilitated Rick Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 Same here, it worked great for the CWC. NXT fans will at least engage with the talent rather than be completely apathetic towards them. Just anything to get them away from the big buildings. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sublime Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 was vince feeding Corey lines to shit on Mauro for name dropping Okada and mention Puroresu? that seemed a little odd out of Graves. like Neville as champ but man the dead crowds hurt the show soooooo much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think Vince is in the announcer's ears for this show so either somebody else fed Corey that or he thought it'd be good to say that.

Niners Fan in CT Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 The crowd was pretty good for tonight's show and the main event was really good. It was a Fatal 5 Way match for #1 contender to Neville. I hadn't watched much the past few weeks but this was a good episode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
