Gallagher dominated a lot of the early part of the match with his technical skill, but Tozawa opened things up with some dives. This was a fun, solid match, and I was happy with the finish.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Ring Area<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nAfter the match, Drew Gulak and Brian Kendrick enter the ring. Gulak thinks his team is not living up to its full potential. Therefore, Gulak presents his Power Point, slide ten. He explains that there is no mercy on his team, and no place for weakness. He says Brian Kendrick is dead weight, so Brian Kendrick attacks Gulak and Gallagher before they can attack him. Gulak and Gallagher quickly double-team Kendrick and beat him up until they decide they&#8217;re finished.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Video<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nA look at the feud between Buddy Murphy and Cedric Alexander as well as their upcoming title match.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Backstage<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nKayla Braxton welcomes Drake Maverick.

Kalisto started strong and frustrated TJP with an extended sequence of moves, counters, and reversals. TJP would come back and dominate a large part of the match, but Kalisto would survive long enough to see TJP begin to get frustrated once again. The finish of the match was good, though I don&#8217;t think the last minute distraction was necessary.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Ring Area<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nAfter the match, TJP rips of Kalisto&#8217;s mask.

The main event wasn&#8217;t a feud-ended by any means, and I&#8217;m looking forward to more from TJP and the Lucha House Party. I was a little disappointed that Kendrick had a falling out with Gulak and Gallagher, but if it leads to Kendrick doing better as a solo wrestler, then I think it&#8217;ll all work out for the better.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Match of the Night<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<strong>Kalisto vs TJP<\/strong><br \/>\nI&#8217;d like to see them have maybe some more back and forth rather than just trading dominant portions of the match, but I did like this match a lot as it is.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Official Results:?<a href=\"https:\/\/www.wwe.com\/shows\/wwe-205-live\/2018-10-03\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"color: #800080;\">https:\/\/www.wwe.com\/shows\/wwe-205-live\/2018-10-03<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tozawa looks for revenge against Gallagher, and Kalisto looks to avenge the treatment of Dorado at the hands of TJP in a good episode of 205 Live.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":4095,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1128,297,622],"tags":[1129,892,980,1878,903,872,536,932,516,526,1149,891,1926,1686,638,1685,1130,1684,693,1332,1365,7],"class_list":["post-4094","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-205-live","category-show-results","category-wwe","tag-205-live","tag-akira-tozawa","tag-brian-kendrick","tag-drake-maverick","tag-drew-gulak","tag-gran-metalik","tag-greg-hamilton","tag-jack-gallagher","tag-jason-ayers","tag-kalisto","tag-kayla-braxton","tag-lince-dorado","tag-lucha-house-party","tag-moda-center","tag-nigel-mcguinness","tag-oregon","tag-percy-watson","tag-portland-or","tag-ryan-tran","tag-tjp","tag-vic-joseph","tag-wwe"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4094","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4094"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4094\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4097,"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4094\/revisions\/4097"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4095"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4094"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4094"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4094"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
