WWE 205 Live Results (September 4th, 2020): Winners, Grades, and Video Highlights
205 Live saw the reigning NXT Cruiserweight Champion and his lackeys make a violent statement tonight. After losing a six-man tag team match on NXT this week, Legado Del Fantasma had some frustrations built up, and decided to take them out on the Superstars of the Purple Brand.
Ever-Rise and One-Two fought on in a 205 Live rematch in the main event, with Ever-Rise believing there's a conspiracy against them in the land of the Cruiserweights. We also saw the return of Mansoor, who is yet to be pinned on 205 Live this year.
We kicked off the night, though, with the returning 205 Live Original Ariya Daivari. His opponent was Tehuti Miles, a man who'd been getting some advice from former Cruiserweight Champion and fellow 205 Live Original The Brian Kendrick. Would his training be enough to give Miles a big win tonight?
