WWE 205 Live Results: Isaiah "Swerve" Scott gets revenge, Lio Rush injured? (March 6th, 2020)
We're one week away from the epic showdown between Team 205 OG and Team NXT. The 205 Live members have been upset about the constant addition of talent from the black and gold brand over the past few months, and feel that they're being replaced. They won't go down without a fight, however. We continue toward that confrontation with two incredible cruiserweight bouts this week.
The main event features Oney Lorcan and his tag partner Danny Burch as they take on the newly formed tag team of Tony Nese and Mike Kanellis. Nese & Kanellis, who have semi-dubbed themselves "Dad Bods" recently, and are leading the charge against Team NXT next week.
Thanks to that vicious headbutt from Jack Gallagher last week, Lio Rush will not be medically cleared for the five-on-five elimination match next week. When asked about who would be the next captain, Isaiah "Swerve" Scott said that team NXT doesn't need one, but they have found a new member for the team. As for who it is? We'll have to wait and see.
