205:Alive - 205 Live recap for June 20, 2017

Akira Tozawa talks with Rich Swann backstage. Tonight, Swann has Neville in the ring, and he hopes to dance his way back into title convention. Suddenly, Titus O'Neil shows up, and says Tozawa has everything he needs to take The Titus Brand to the international level, then asks Tozawa to sign on the dotted line to make him an official member of The Titus Brand, and throws in an extra 5% of the cut on merchandise. He also proposes "the Tozawa Towel," a play on the Pittsburgh's. Tozawa isn't convinced, and Titus says he will give him until next weeks' Raw to decide.

"The Premiere Athlete" Tony Nese beats "Gentleman" Jack Gallagher after faking a shoulder injury to send the back of an unwary Gallagher's head into the bottom turnbuckle before hitting the running knee strike for the win.



Noam Dar Facetimes Alicia Fox again. Cedric Alexander shows up again as Noam tells Alicia they should move on from Cedric. Alicia Fox says this is over when she says it's over. Noam Dar tells Cedric to quit 205 Live, or he and Alicia will make his life miserable, and says they have already started by tossing his bags in the bottom of the river. Cedric Alexander then pulls out his bags and says "You mean this bag?" Noam Dar and Alicia Fox, thinking they tossed Cedric's bag in the river, find out it was Ariya Daivari's bag they tossed instead when Daivari starts looking for it.

We see a video package for Mustafa Ali vs. Drew Gulak.

Before the next match, Drew Gulak sings the praises of a traditional, ground-based offense. He asks Mustafa Ali to work together with him and make a better 205 Live, and proposes that this match be a "no-flying match." Ali answers by attacking him before the match begins.

Mustafa Ali beats Drew Gulak. During the match, Mustafa Ali takes to the air and Gulak catches him. As he goes for a Boston Crab, Ali rolls him up and gets the win. Drew Gulak is livid.



Austin Aries tosses a towel to "Gentleman" Jack Gallagher backstage. Aries suggests that they take a page from Neville and TJP's book, and proposes an alliance. Gallagher agrees to "a loose accord," and they both shake hands.

TJP meets with Rich Swann backstage. He says he does not appreciate him telling him he is taking shortcuts, as well as telling him how to conduct himself. TJP says he knows why he said what he said, and tells Swann to do what he told him, as he is in the main event tonight, not him.

Akira Tozawa will be watching the next match from ringside in a VIP seat with a velvet rope, a placard with his name on it, popcorn, soda and hot dogs, courtesy of The Titus Brand.

Neville beats Rich Swann with the Rings of Saturn after dodging a Phoenix Splash.
