Triple H Confirms 205 Live Brand Is Ending, Cruiserweights Moving To NXT
In an interview with Newsweek, Triple H confirmed that 205 Live brand and the cruiserweight wrestlers will move over to NXT brand. There has long been a rumor that WWE plans to cancel 205 Live before the year is over.
Here is what Triple H told Newsweek:

Man, we were just talking about this @Chris. I do think it moving to NXT brands should inspire more hope, though.
I kind of think the timing of this announcement on the heels of the 2-hour show debuting on USA makes sense.

Will you be sad to see WWE 205 Live end?“You’ll start to see 205 begin to. I think it always existed as an island onto itself, a little bit, and it’s become lost in this limbo. You’ll begin to see it move more towards the NXT banner and the talent there.
We have a lot of talent. For them to begin to compete either open against anyone or in the cruiserweight division, but have that Title sit under the NXT brand is more meaningful. It creates more opportunities for more people.
As for RAW and SmackDown, it’s an open division for them. When you’re on both shows, everybody is competing against everybody.”
