BRM Reviews the 3/27/2018 205 Live (AWESOME!)

[Big Red Machine]

The show opened with a hype package for the main event, including a short promo from each guy.


MARK ANDREWS vs. TONY NESE- 7.5/10
Drake Maverick was on commentary for this match. He told us that both of these guys came to him saying they want a match against Drew Gulak because Gulak kept the Dragon Sleeper locked onto them even after they tapped, so Maverick booked them against each other, with the implication being that the winner will get a match with Gulak.

DASHA INTERVIEWS DREW GULAK- good.
He claims the be “the best submission specialist in the entire WWE.” I’m not sure if this is true, so I guess we’ll just have to find out when WWE books Drew Gulak vs. Bryan Danielson!

DAVE MAVERICK SIT-DOWN WITH CEDRIC ALEXANDER & MUSTAFA ALI- wow. After all of this time they spent pushing Ali as a babyface, they made him act like a total dick to Cedric here.

TJP vs. BUDDY MURPHY vs. AKIRA TOZAWA vs. KALISTO- 9/10
THIS WAS NUTS! It was an all-action four-way with a story that put the focus on the burgeoning feud between the Japanese guys and the Lucha guys, but by doing so in a way that reminded you that these are the reasonable members of their respective teams. GO WATCH THIS MATCH NOW!


Yet another awesome episode of 205 Live! All hail the King of Kings! He has taken this show from nothing to the best weekly wrestling show in the world in less than two months!

He has taken this show from nothing to the best weekly wrestling show in the world in less than two months!

That's a very bold statement. But not untrue.
