Mike and Maria!

 

[Kross Rhodes]

I'm honestly hoping The Brian Kendrick turns on Akira and forms a WWE Kingdom with Mike.

 

[Kross Rhodes]

Akira didn't jump high enough for that bomb spot.

 

[Kross Rhodes]

Kanellis with the Arn Spinebuster.

 

[Kross Rhodes]

Kanellis flinging his own body over the top rope to get out of a stretch, Talk about commitment.

 

[Kross Rhodes]

That Frankensteiner counter. I love Maria's reactions here.

 

[Kross Rhodes]

Akira hurt his hand on that right.

 

[Kross Rhodes]

Brian got in the ring. Akira should be disqualified.

 

[Kross Rhodes]

I still want Brian and Mike to form a new Kingdom in WWE.

 

[Kross Rhodes]

Nese is such a beast.

WWE 205 Live preview, April 9, 2019: The Premier Champion kicks off his title reign

At WrestleMania Kickoff, Tony Nese bested his former friend and training partner Buddy Murphy to capture the WWE Cruiserweight Championship just miles away from his home of Long Island, N.Y. What does Nese have in store for his first WWE 205 Live as champion?

A new era of WWE 205 Live

During WrestleMania Kickoff at MetLife Stadium, Tony Nese proved that re-focusing his attention and focusing on the Cruiserweight division’s ultimate prize was the right move, as he captured the WWE Cruiserweight Championship. After winning the 2019 WWE Cruiserweight Championship Tournament – defeating former titleholder Cedric Alexander in the finals – The Premier Athlete earned the opportunity to challenge Buddy Murphy for the title on The Grandest Stage of Them All, but The Unstoppable severed his friendship with Nese in dramatic fashion when he attacked him after his win over Alexander.

In true Cruiserweight fashion, Nese and Murphy brought the WWE Universe to the edge of their seats and set the competitive tone for The Showcase of the Immortals, and The Premier Athlete bested the champion and captured his first WWE Cruiserweight Title in the shadow of New York City, just miles from his hometown in Long Island, N.Y.

With a new champion crowned, WWE 205 Live General Manager Drake Maverick is no doubt already searching for Nese’s first challenger.

What awaits The Premier Athlete on his first WWE 205 Live as WWE Cruiserweight Champion? Don’t miss WWE 205 Live tonight at 10/9 C, streaming live on the award-winning WWE Network.
