Another week, another episode of 205 Live dominated by Legado Del Fantasma. The NXT Cruiserweight Champion Santos Escobar and his cronies have managed to send a strong message to the Cruiserweight division, both on NXT and 205 Live, leaving bodies in their wake.
Later on in the night, Ariya Daivari would make his return to the ring in a fantastic bout with 205 Live newcomer and top cruiserweight prospect, Jake Atlas. After ruining Danny Burch's match by attacking Oney Lorcan last week, Daivari Dinero was here to prove that he's back and he's not one to be trifled with.

We kicked off the night with Legado Del Fantasma taking on Ever-Rise. Matt Martel and Chase Parker have claimed that they're the greatest tag team on 205 Live. That might have to do with the fact that, until recently, they were the only tag team on 205 Live.
Still, Legado Del Fantasma was here to prove a point.
Legado Del Fantasma w/Santos Escobar vs Ever-Rise on 205 Live

Mendoza went for the eyes and managed to make a tag before getting taken out with an atomic drop. As Parker turned around, he was planted with a DDT. Joaquin Wilde and Raul Mendoza rocked Parker with an assisted springboard moonsault.
Mendosa continued to wear down Parker, battering him and keeping him on the mat. Parker does manage to get to Martel, who comes in like a house on fire. He's able to take Mendoza out, allowing Ever-Rise to connect with the drop-toe-hold/step-up elbow drop combination.
They nearly hit their finish, but Parker is sent to the floor when Wilde drops the ropes. Legado Del Fantasma finished Martel with the Russian leg sweep/running enziguri.

Last week, Ariya Daivari returned to 205 Live, attacking Oney Lorcan and costing Danny Burch his match in the process. Daivari Dinero was back, and he was here to send a message.
Ariya Daivari vs Jake Atlas on 205 Live
Jake Atlas took Ariya Daivari to the mat first. Daivari managed to stand up and break away by yanking Atlas's hair, but Atlas was able to regain control with a snapmare takedown.
Daivari Dinero managed to catch Atlas going in between the ropes with a nasty knee to the jaw. A running dropkick launched Atlas into the plexiglass across the floor. This was where Daivari took over, using the ring area to attack the body of his opponent.
Inside the ring, Daivari battered Atlas with several elbows. 205 Live's newest Superstar fired up, responding with uppercuts that sent Daivari into the corner. A German suplex set Daivari up for a step-up enziguri, giving Atlas a two-count.
Daivari was planted with a headlock driver but kicked out just in time. Atlas set up for his Rainbow DDT, but Daivari moved away from the ropes...right in range for a spectacular springboard blockbuster. Daivari rolled to the floor, but couldn't escape Atlas.
The 205 Live veteran was able to turn things around when he caught Atlas running into the corner, launching him headfirst into the turnbuckle with a hip toss. After a thumb to the eye, the Hammerlock Lariat turned Atlas inside out, giving Daivari his first win on 205 Live since his injury months ago.
