Marty Sugar Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 Reiterating that Tozawa/Neville was very good, despite that awful fucking crowd. Surprised it took this long for Enzo to show up on 205Live, to be honest...hopefully this is a short visit before he gets permanently moved to the broadcast booth. Metallik's springboard moonsault is such an amazing move. Big YIKES to Cedric screaming "fuck it" in the opening tag, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FireThunder Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 Enzo was... entertaining? His promo with his team was fun, describing them as a recipe. Cheating to win was... unexpected? And if I never see Metalik try to do his chicken dance again, it'll be too soon. At least Enzo hit his finisher cleanly. And Neville still considers him a joke which might not be wise. The rest of the show was... hrm. Is it a WWE wide thing where babyfaces are made to look like complete dopes? Because that ending with Kendrick and Gallagher was fucking awful. Kendrick makes a joke of Gallagher for weeks on end and the end result is that Kendrick busts open Gallagher and DDTs him on the ring bell for the win. I had no idea Kendrick was Spanish for "Alexa Bliss". Also, TJP was faking his injury, what a shock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niners Fan in CT Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 The Fatal 5 Way Main Event was very good and crowd was hot. Putting Enzo on there was a pretty good idea far as crowd reaction goes. He did next to nothing in the actual match but oh well. Good to see a lively crowd. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FireThunder Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 That was a damn good match that told the story they've set out with Enzo, that he's using his cunning to get wins. Y'know... cheating. He sneaks in after Cedric gets three eliminations with Lumbar Checks and rolls Cedric up with a handful of tights to steal the title shot. I thought Nigel was really good on commentary as well. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overly Critical Man Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 It's like Enzo was born for the gimmick of a wrestler who has to cheat because he sucks in the ring, because you know...he sucks in the ring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eivion Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 Fatal 5-way was good. I like how they are handling Enzo character and ring wise so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Cincinnati Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 So I've known the buzz was there but spent months finding excuses not to watch the Alexander-Dar I Quit match. My mistake. That'll likely be competing with Bate-Dunne and some high-level Asuka stuff when it's WWE MOTY time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FireThunder Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Gosh, where to start with this show? Yet another wonderful TJP/Swann match. I'd be glad to see this end here, but they do mesh really well together. Drew Gulak coming out to continue his PowerPoint presentation only to get interrupted by Breezango who proceed to arrest him in a pretty funny segment. I'm amazed Gulak didn't corpse when 'Dango was rubbing his nose all over his face. As an aside, more of this would help the cruiserweight division tremendously: have them interact with people outside the weight class. And finally, we get the emergence of heel Jack Gallagher. He runs out to interrupt Kendrick/Cedric, threatens Kendrick, and then proceeds to beat the dogshit out of Cedric before shaking hands with Kendrick. I'm on board.

Beech27 Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 "Okada" on 205 Live as a Tekken character featured on a Drew Gulak produced slideshow is a tremendous easter egg. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As surprising as that was, I was more amused by the fact that Microsoft Office's twitter account tweeted about it last week. If there's one guy that would get such attention it'd be Drew Guiak. After all, this is the same guy that came out in Evolve to the instrumental version of "Tell it to my heart" (which I absolutely loved) 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FireThunder Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 Man, how about that promo to end the show? Neville eviscerates Enzo on the mic. Enzo responds by kicking Neville in the balls to a chorus of boos. The rest of the show was pretty much filler. The mutual admiration society between Gulak and McGuinness was pretty funny, as was Gulak's thousand mile stare as he remembered the injustices he encountered in "fashion jail".

thee Reverend Axl Future Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 Neville is a gosh darn gem, so very overlooked but a consistent worker, a carpenter, under-rated on the mic AND brilliant with the silent seething and great with his gimmick. He adds a real sense of legitimacy to this show by making the belt be a real prize. (get a room), RAF 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FireThunder Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 I wonder if he put extra mustard on it because Gulak was at ringside. Gulak is really entertaining in his role of "fun police". That was a good call in the Raw thread about Enzo refusing to defend the title against any of the cruiserweights because they attacked him. I guess we'll have to see where the end game is in all this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overly Critical Man Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 If Enzo is gonna stay a heel, he's going to have to stop spelling it out for us. The fans still love their sing-along time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
