BRM Reviews the 9/11/2018 205 Live (GREAT!)

Post by Big Red Machine » Sep 12th, '18, 21:03

PARTNERS ARE BANNED FROM RINGSIDE: Gran Metalik vs. Buddy Murphy- 8/10
Vic Jospeh claimed that “Gran Metalik” translates to “Golden Mask,” but we know this is false because we wrestling fans know that the way to say “Golden Mask” in Spanish is “Mascara Dorada.” Just to be sure, I ran “Gran Metalik” through Google Translate. It translates to “Great Metalik.”
They had an awesome match which Murphy won. Murphy then cut what was essentially a babyface promo saying he was going to win the Cruiserweight Title in his home town of Melbourne, Australia at Super Show-Down.

CEDRIC ALEXANDER & MUSTAFA ALI BACKSTAGE- bad
The announcers told us that Mustafa Ali has been medically cleared to compete. We then got a backstage stage with him and Cedric when he said he wished he could be teaming with Cedric. He said this apparently unaware that Akira Tozawa was right behind him. Cedric and Tozawa were then goofy together. This was something I would expect to see on Raw, not 205 Live.

MUSTAFA ALI vs. MICHAEL THOMPSON- squash
Hideo Itami came out to watch Itami’s match and laugh evilly. Nigel taking Itami at his word was top-notch heel announcer stuff. Thompson is actually indy worker J. Spade, which I could tell by the white spade on his trunks with the black J on it.

DRAKE MAVERICK, DREW GULAK, & JACK GALLAGHER BACKSTAGE- very good
We were told that Kendrick is injured after a match against Tozawa, which both explains where Kendrick has been and why these guys don’t like Tozawa. For some reason, Jack Gallagher has an illustration of a bee on his tights.

NOAM DAR SELFIE PROMO- good
Dar did a rather impressive imitation Lio’s voice, especially given Dar’s rather strong Scottish accent.

LIO RUSH SELFIE PROMO- excellent
These two are wrestling next week.

CEDRIC ALEXANDER & AKIRA TOZAWA vs. DREW GULAK & JACK GALLAGHER- 7/10
Heels win clean, with Gulak making Tozawa tap out.

DRAKE MAERICK ANNOUNCES THAT GULAK IS GETTING A TITLE SHOT NEXT WEEK- cool

Another great episode of 205 Live.
