205:Alive - 205 Live recap for April 23, 2019

We hear from Drew Gulak, who says that these are strange days in the Cruiserweight Division, then announces that Oney Lorcan and Ariya Daivari will face each other for an opportunity at the Cruiserweight title. He then proclaims that the Cruiserweight title will eventually reach his waist, then says he will take Humberto Carrillo back to school and teach him that when he steps to Gulak, he will tap out.

In an Instagram video, "Gentleman" Jack Gallagher says that he attacked Drew Gulak for furthering his goals at the cost of his own, and while Gulak did not respect him as a friend, he will respect him as an adversary.

Humberto Carrillo beats Drew Gulak.

Oney Lorcan says he has been training, competing and making sacrifices for a decade to make it to WWE and become a champion. Ariya Daivari stands in his way and wants to hit as hard as he can, and fortunately for him, this is the kind of fight he likes. Ariya Daivari says he has become untouchable since he has focused on himself and plans to keep it that way. Regardless of who he faces, nobody will keep him from becoming the next Cruiserweight Champion.

Backstage, General Manager Drake Maverick is chewing out Mike and Maria Kanellis for Maria's interference last week when The Brian Kendrick shows up wanting to talk. Maria says Akira Tozawa should look in the mirror to see why he lost as Kendrick says that Tozawa does not need him and can do his own fighting. As Mike and Maria ask why Kendrick is here, Kendrick says he is leaving and was only a distraction anyway. Tozawa then attacks Mike Kannelis and has to be quickly held back.

"The Premier Athlete" Tony Nese watches from ringside for the next match.

Ariya Daivari beats Oney Lorcan to face "The Premier Athlete" Tony Nese for the WWE Cruiserweight Championship. After the match, Tony Nese offers to shake Ariya's hand at ringside, but Ariya would rather have the Cruiserweight Championship than a handshake. Nese dares Ariya to take the title from him.
