Lio Rush Says ‘The Cruiserweight Division Deserves Better,’ Tony Nese Explains 205 Live Cancellation

UPDATE: Tony Nese has also chimed in on the cancelation, and brought up his newborn son as the “reason.” Congrats to the new dad!


Lio Rush is not a fan of tonight’s 205 Live being canceled just hours before it was meant to take place.

“The Cruiserweight division deserves better,” wrote the current NXT Cruiserweight Champion on Twitter. He proceeded to thumbs down the announcement of tonight’s episode getting canceled and then did a (now deleted) impromptu Q&A with fans. “It’s unfortunate,” Rush said of the cancellation. “One of the biggest weekends in wrestling and a light deserves to be shined bright on a division that thrives on hard work, physically entertaining the fans and proving that they belong.”

Hopefully, we’ll see the cruiserweights get a bigger spotlight going forward.
