Draft:List of WWE 205 Live episodes

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list of episodes for the professional wrestling television series called WWE 205 Live. WWE 205 Live and 205 Live was an American professional wrestling television program that was produced by WWE. This series would only feature the Cruiserweights. The talent had to have a weight limit of 205lbs. On special occasions would other talent from the brands of RAW, SmackDown, NXT and NXT UK rosters be featured in which those individuals were not under the specific weight class. In the beginning of October 2019, the brand would be intergrated and was merged with the NXT brand. After 205 Live was intergrated into NXT, the WWE Cruiserweight Championship would become known as the NXT Cruiserweight Championship. Beginning in August 2021, the series would start including talent that was over the required weight limit. The program would eventually be replaced by a new show called NXT Level Up. That series would begin on February 18, 2022.[1] [2] [3]
