DREW GULAK PROMO- GREAT!
He did an excellent job of getting across that he is not the same Drew Gulak as we have seen in the past; not the same Drew Gulak who repeatedly failed to win the WWE Cruiserweight Title. This new Drew Gulak is much more dangerous, which is why he is now the WWE Cruiserweight Champion.

JACK GALLAGHER vs. MIKE KANELLIS (w/Maria Kanellis)- 4.5/10
Kanellis got frustrated and tried to cheat, then got even more frustrated when he got caught pulling the tights instead of following up on Gallagher, allowing Gallagher to recover enough to hit his headbutt and get the win. Kanellis seemed to quit afterwards, not wanting to face Drake Maverick in this humiliation. Maria was not pleased with this behavior.

TONY NESE PROMO- This started off as good babyface stuff, but then he ventured into the realm of complaining about the very thing he said he wouldn’t complain about at the beginning of his promo (not being the guy who got pinned in the match where he lost his title).

AKIRA TOZAWA PROMO- good

DRAKE MAVERICK YELLS AT MIKE KANELLIS OVER VOICEMAIL- good
The old, pre-24/7 Title Drake Maverick seems to be back. HOORAY!

HUMBERTO CARRILLO vs. ROB ROLLENBECK- no rating, decent squash

SARAH SCHREIBER INTERVIEWS ARIYA DAIVARI- good segment
He gets just enough bragging about his attack on Oney Lorcan last week in to make the point before Lorcan attacks him from behind with a chair, repaying the favor and screaming “HOW DOES IT FEEL?!” Lorcan pounded on Daivari until referees pulled him off, screaming “HOW DOES IT FEEL?!” the entire time.

LUCHA HOUSE PARTY PROMO- bad
They were WAY too goofy here. The news coming out of this segment is that they are having a tornado match against the Bollywood Boys next week.

WINNER GETS A WWE CRUISERWEIGHT TITLE MATCH AT EXTREME RULES 2019: Akira Tozawa vs. Tony Nese- 8/10
Why is Tozawa in this match? He got pinned cleanly in a Cruiserweight Title match two days ago.
Anyway, they had an awesome match that Nese won cleanly. We got a nice show of respect afterwards as well.

A good episode of 205 Live, but mostly on the strength of the main event.
