'205 Live' debuts on WWE Network; Rich Swann captures cruiserweight title

WWE debuted its newest concept show, "205 Live," on the WWE Network following "Smackdown" on Tuesday. After the success of the Cruiserweight Classic, the decision was made to replace the failing "WWE Superstars" show with one focusing exclusively on the cruiserweights. Given that the division has been met with indifference to date on "Raw" and treated like filler, this can only be a step up for it. The main problem to date has been that these guys are all doing stuff that the bigger guys are already doing, so there's no sense of differentiation in the styles or the personalities.
