Daivari&#8217;s focus was sometimes split between his opponent and Tony Nese at ringside, and that allowed Noam Dar to get a good amount of offense in this match. This was a good, back and forth battle, and though the finish wasn&#8217;t surprising considering Daivari has a title match coming up soon, it was still fun to watch.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Ring Area<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nAfter the match, Tony Nese enters the ring and approaches him from behind. Daivari is surprised when he turns around, but Nese doesn&#8217;t attack. Instead, Nese tells Daivari that he could&#8217;ve attacked him, but he didn&#8217;t.

I feel like these kind of anything goes type of matches have become a specialty for Tozawa. There&#8217;s always some good, innovative violence in these matches, and beyond that, there&#8217;s just a good wrestling match. Tozawa and Kanellis did some damage to each other and themselves. I really enjoyed this match, and I&#8217;ve enjoyed their feud up to this point.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Ring Area<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nAfter the match, Maria Kanellis heads to the ring to check on her husband. The Brian Kenrick also heads to the ring to check on his friend.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Show Impressions<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nA good show all around. Tozawa always has good feud ending matches, and this was no exception. I&#8217;d really like to see him get another run with the Cruiserweight Title at some point. This feud has also helped Mike Kanellis. Even though Mike didn&#8217;t always win, he&#8217;s in a much better spot than he was a few months ago.<\/p>\n<p>I also like the development for Daivari and Nese. It&#8217;s not much, but it&#8217;s all that;s really needed for two guys who do their best work in the ring rather than on the mic.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Match of the Night<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<strong>Akira Tozawa vs Mike Kanellis<\/strong><br \/>\nLots of fun.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Official Results: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wwe.com\/shows\/wwe-205-live\/2019-05-07\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"color: #800080;\">https:\/\/www.wwe.com\/shows\/wwe-205-live\/2019-05-07<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mike Kanellis and Akira Tozawa attempt to settle their differences in a No DQ match, number one contender Ariya Daivari takes on Noam Dar with the champ Tony Nese watching, and the Singh brothers make a statement on a good episode of 205 Live.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":5088,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1128,297,622],"tags":[1129,476,892,875,980,546,2520,1878,536,2176,932,1783,2521,1949,1948,589,515,1532,638,1122,930,928,693,1210,2175,1208,1209,906,1365,7],"class_list":["post-5086","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-205-live","category-show-results","category-wwe","tag-205-live","tag-aiden-english","tag-akira-tozawa","tag-ariya-daivari","tag-brian-kendrick","tag-danilo-anfibio","tag-david-kauffman","tag-drake-maverick","tag-greg-hamilton","tag-humberto-carrillo","tag-jack-gallagher","tag-kentucky","tag-kevin-lee","tag-kfc-yum-center","tag-louisville-ky","tag-maria-kanellis","tag-mike-chioda","tag-mike-kanellis","tag-nigel-mcguinness","tag-no-dq-match","tag-noam-dar","tag-oney-lorcan","tag-ryan-tran","tag-samir-singh","tag-sarah-schreiber","tag-singh-brothers","tag-sunil-singh","tag-tony-nese","tag-vic-joseph","tag-wwe"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5086","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=5086"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5086\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5089,"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5086\/revisions\/5089"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5088"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5086"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5086"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5086"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
