Just as the Raw Women's and Tag Team divisions were hit hard by the Superstar Shake Up, so was the 205 Live roster. Over the past eight months, its top three superstars - Ali, Buddy Murphy and Cedric Alexander - have all 'graduated' to the main roster. That leaves a lot of superstars who were around at the recent inception of 205 Live, but some have already won the title and had their time in the sun.

The latest was Tony Nese, and although he's a fantastic athlete and great wrestler, he doesn't have the charisma beyond looking at his abs to carry the division. The division did lose the three aforementioned stars, but they also gained Oney Lorcan, Humberto Carillo and the Singhs.

One under-the-radar addition to the show was when Mike and Maria Kanellis debuted on the show during the Fall. Although Mike is a good enough pro wrestler, I was never a fan or thought that he was someone that WWE had to sign.

But over the last year and change, he has overcome a drug addiction and completely remade himself. He's totally ripped now and along with his wife, is a part of an act that would be perfect to carry the brand for the foreseeable future. I think he beats Nese some time soon and holds the title at SummerSlam.
