205 Live GM Drake Maverick opens the broadcast and says by the end of the night, he will decide who will be the next challenger to Cedric Alexander’s Cruiserweight Championship.
TJP def. Noam Dar by submission with the TJP Clutch.
TJP and Dar was OK. Liked TJP's cockiness throughout. Been much better from a personality standpoint. #205Live – @Jason_Namako

Video package on last week’s Cedric Alexander-Hideo Itami Cruiserweight Title Match.
Backstage promo from Mustafa Ali about how he will continue to fight until he is Cruiserweight Champion.
Drew Gulak w/Gentleman Jack Gallagher and The Brian Kendrick def. Danny Garcia by submission with the Gu-Lock.
Afterwards, Gulak cut a promo saying that for two years, 205 Live has had unworthy challengers, but now, you fans will get the champion you need. His opponent reminds him of Cedric Alexander because when you step to him, you will tap out.
Gulak looked great in his showcase. Very similar presentation to Zack Sabre Jr. with the emphasis on the submissions. Looks to be the next challenger to Cedric Alexander. #205Live – JN

Backstage promo from Tony Nese and Buddy Murphy about their problems with the Lucha House Party. Next week, Nese faces Kalisto.
While Nese and Murphy are individually good, them as a pairing does nothing for me. #205Live – JN

Rush's speed and elusiveness is unreal. #205Live – JN

Rush reminds me of a cruiserweight version of MVP. #205Live – JN

Three weeks in a row a good main event from #205Live. Although not as stellar as the prior two weeks, Rush and Tozawa certainly delivered. Solid show this week. – JN
