Just got an e-mail from WWE Network and it looks like the cruiserweights are getting their own show on November 29 at 10:00 eastern so it'll be after Smackdown. As the thread title implies it's called 205 Live. I'm all for it personally. It'll fill that void that the CWC left and it will allow for some good story development. Thoughts?

I'm interested and saw the e-mail, but it looks like they do it after Smackdown, so the cruiserweights are moving to Smackdown?

I am actually quite excited to see the Cruiserweights being given their own show! I dont quite understand why WWE has placed the show in-between SMACKDOWN AND TALKING SMACK.

They want the show to be live and there is no way to do that on Mondays. Should NXT go live as rumored, I could see it moving to a post NXT slot.

Good point Ric, Never actually thought about the issues surrounding putting a show out LIVE.

I hope one of the cruiserweights starts calling himself Mr. 205 and starts a Pitbull gimmick.
Dale!

Why is it called 205 Live? The Cruiserweight division weight limit is 205 pounds and the show is live.

I hope Bryan is on commentary with Mauro for this show. Their commentary added a lot to the CWC which is being totally lost with Cole and his geek squad.

Cruisers are starting to get characters and I think their matches acrually are different.

I just wonder how many fans in the audience are actually going to stick around after Smackdown for a cruiserweight show? Not sure why this needs to be live, tape it before Smackdown and you have a fuller and probably livelier crowd.

I think it's a bit presumptuous to say that the crowds will be dead for 205 Live just because of time. Like, we're basing this off of our experiences with RAW, right? Isn't that show often not that good? That might have something to do with it.
With SmackDown usually being a consistently good show, maybe crowds will be more generous.

We shall see how it goes. The venue says doors opened 15 minutes ago and the show starts at 7:45, I'm guessing enough time for one preshow dark match. I'm predicting an Ambrose vs Styles dark match main to keep people. But again we will see.
Anyway, off to the show!
