Aiden English's obsession with Humberto Carrillo's face is the weirdest thing
It's on the same tier as Graves' obsession with Mandy Rose that clearly goes into entirely inappropriate for work and would be sexual harassment if he actually ever spoke to her.
Also
at already having a masked team of lucha dudes and instead getting two unaffiliated unmasked guys to do a bunch of Lucha Bros spots.
at how empty that arena was. It was basically just the floor seats. I don't think I've ever seen the opposite hard cam side that empty ever. They're filming before SD now? Like...how many hours before SD? Shane Strickland is legit, happy to see they are immediately giving him shit to do instead of have him sit around for months and months and months at the PC and tiny Florida cites.
This had to be the best 205 since they lost Ali, Buddy Murphy, and Cedric within a few weeks of each other.
I never watch 205 Live- do they not still have those guys on the show with the wildcard rule and all? Or does that go ignored on there? It's still weird to me too how Drake Maverick is the GM on there when they got rid of GMs on the other shows. No one cares I guess.
They from time to time have random guest spots from guys from other brands. It's not part of the wild card thing and they've been doing it sporadically for most of the time 205 has been around. Recently they've had Chad Gable on a few times, this week they had Swerve Strickland and Raul Mendoza from NXT (He was in the CWC, has been on NXT TV a handful of times since, more as of late), Oney Lorcan is doing both 205 and NXT (and UK recently as well), Drew Gulak has been on NXT a few times over the past few months, they always have the UK guys on when they do Raw/SD in England, etc. I like that 205 is kind of a neutral brand and I wish they'd have Raw/SD/NXT guys on more often because the core 205 roster is tiny and they've almost all been there since day one. They have 16 guys on their roster page, 5 have been champion, 4 work multiple brands. There are seriously like 200 dudes under the WWE banner right now, most are cruiserweight sized and most aren't doing shit.
The crowd that was left was quite raucous, which is always a rare thing for 205, especially since the Shakeup decimated the show. It's just....there might have been 2000-3000 people in an arena at that point. Shit was wild. in an arena that size. But Gulak/Swerve honestly is a WWE MOTYC I think. Excellent match. I'd have to say I think it was better than most of the G1 matches so far tbh.
