Kushida and Kemp primed for thrilling collision on 205 Live​

205 Live is set to feature a trio of must-see collisions, as Kushida and Damon Kemp will collide in the main event, Brooks Jensen and Bodhi Hayward are primed for a slugfest, and Kacy Catanzaro and Kayden Carter take on Fallon Henley and Lash Legend.

After he and Ikemen Jiro lost their Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic Quarterfinal Match against MSK, NXT’s Time Splitter is looking to bounce back in the singles ranks when he throws down with the upstart Kemp, who impressively went toe-to-toe with Josh Briggs last week on the purple brand before falling just short.

Which competitor will pick up an important bounce-back victory?

And in a clash of two of the youngest Superstars on NXT 2.0 and 205 Live, Jensen and Hayward are set to lock horns while each seeking an eye-opening win. Both of their respective teams suffered a first-round exit in the Dusty Classic, as Chase University were upended by Grizzled Young Veterans while Jensen and Josh Briggs fell to The Creed Brothers. Which competitor will get back on track in singles competition?

Plus, after struggling immensely to get on the same page as Amari Miller last week, Legend will now attempt to pair up with a new tag team partner in Henley. With the Dusty Cup looming, can Legend be a team player, or will her ego get in the way as she and Henley attempt to take down the exciting tandem of Catanzaro and Carter?

Don’t miss a thrilling edition of 205 Live, streaming Friday at 10/9 C on Peacock in the United States and on WWE Network everywhere else!​

WWE 205 Live preview: Quinn and Gacy primed for must-see melee​

Full 205 Live preview for Feb. 11, 2022, featuring Xyon Quinn and Joe Gacy throwing down in a hard-hitting main event, Ikemen Jiro colliding with Trick Williams, and Erica Yan battling Lash Legend.
​

Quinn and Gacy set for slugfest on 205 Live​

A must-see edition of 205 Live will feature a trio of edge-of-your-seat singles bouts, as Xyon Quinn will throw down with Joe Gacy in the main event, Ikemen Jiro is primed for a hard-hitting clash with Trick Williams, and Erica Yan is slated for a collision with Lash Legend.

Backed by the cold-blooded Harland, Gacy hasn’t been shy about credit for singlehandedly “stripping away the exclusivity from 205 Live” and making it a brand on which Superstars of all weight classes and backgrounds can compete.

He’ll be opposed by the hard-hitting Quinn, who recently competed in a thrilling series of matches with Santos Escobar and is looking to claim a statement victory over the outspoken Gacy.

Speaking of outspoken Superstars, Williams is champing at the bit for his first match of 2022, a one-on-one melee with the eccentric Jiro of Jacket Time. With each competitor likely to have his respective tag team partner patrolling ringside, will Jiro or Williams pick up a statement-making victory?

Legend has been having a difficult time preparing for the upcoming Women’s Dusty Classic, teaming with Amari Miller and Fallon Henley on consecutive episodes of 205 Live but struggling to get on the same page as either of her partners and losing both matches. As someone who is clearly not keen on sharing the spotlight, can Legend get back on track in her singles battle with Yan?

Don’t miss a thrilling episode of 205 Live, streaming Friday at 10/9 C on Peacock in the United States and on WWE Network everywhere else!​

Trick getting some ring time

He needs some more seasoning lmaooo

They're following it with a Lash Legend match tho so Trick gonna look like Dean Malenko by comparison

 

[Dale]

Figured he would. I just really like the pairing of him and Melo and want them to succeed.

Yeah he wasn't trash or anything but it was so basic lmao he had a three quarter facelock for half the match

 

[Chris]

Is Gacy finally gonna change the name?

 

[Chris]

Could be way off and it was a throwaway line but of they're changing the name I think it might have something to do with leveling up or some shit since Nigel has repeated it on commentary now

The company has filed to trademark the name "NXT: Level Up" for a new television show. This may be the new name for 205 Live, which obviously has been in the works for a name change since it's neither 205 nor live anymore.

 

[Dale]

Odd name but whatever, just glad they're continuing to use it for the NXT guys

 

[Chris]

Probs gonna make a new LEVEL UP thread once they release the preview for the first episode btw.

So long 205 Live thread. You had a good run of varying degrees of activity, sometimes there were even 3 whole people here at once watching live
