205 Live Review – June 5, 2018: Maintaining Momentum

TJP vs. Jobber/New Superstar Hype Package

Taking a page out of Nia Jax’s playbook, TJP cut a promo while systematically destroying a jobber. Unlike Jax, though, TJ’s mic work was superb here. He complained about the level of competition he gets and how he deserves better treatment. The former champ teased moving brands, saying maybe they will treat him better. He then forced the jobber to tap out. After his match, a video played announcing Lio Rush would be joining 205 Live soon.

Result: TJP def. Jobber

Having the Lio Rush video package after TJP’s tease of switching brands leads me to believe NXT will be the future home for the winner of the Cruiserweight Classic.

This squash match was very enjoyable thanks to TJP’s mic work. His complaining was the perfect amount of annoying, and it was frustrating to see him back up his words. Great heel work and I’m interested to see where this goes.
