5 WWE stars who could benefit from moving to 205 Live

Drake Maverick only took over the reins of 205 Live a few weeks ago and it seems that he has already begun to make a difference. The former TNA Superstar was exactly what the brand needed and his arrival already has sparked the arrival of a number of other stars on the roster as well, including Roderick Strong, Mark Andrews, and Buddy Murphy.

Maverick recently teased that he was looking at more additions to his brand in the coming weeks and he was looking all over SmackDown, Raw and NXT for these stars.

I told you that I’m looking across the ENTIRE @WWEUniverse for potential #Cruiserweight @WWE superstars for @WWE205Live

That means I’m looking at #RAW
That means I’m looking at #SmackdownLive

Tonight I’m looking at #NXTOrlando pic.twitter.com/74WfBfwgbU

There are a number of wrestlers who could benefit from being moved over to the 205 Live brand for a while, here are just a few of them.

#5. Mike Kanellis

Mike Kanellis has recently revealed a new leaner figure

Ever since he made his debut on WWE TV almost a year ago, it seems that Kanellis has fallen out of favour with many officials backstage, but much like Buddy Murphy over the past few months, Mike has been putting in the time at the gym and recently showed off a new and improved physique on Instagram.

Mike is only a few pounds above the weight that is needed to be part of the Cruiserweight Division and it's easy to see him being able to drop the weight and join the brand in the near future if SmackDown Live have no future plans for him. It could be a great way for the former TNA star to kick-start his WWE career.
