WWE 205 Live Results (September 25, 2020): Winners, Grades, and Video Highlights 

Once again, 205 Live's Isaiah "Swerve" Scott has challenged Santos Escobar for the NXT Cruiserweight Championship. Scott has been a serious thorn in the side of Legado Del Fantasma, but tonight he had another focus.

Ariya Daivari had recently returned to the Purple Brand, running through a slew of 205 Live Superstars in his path. Now, he's got a chance to knock off one of the top dogs on the brand. Could he conquer Swerve's House?

We kicked off the night with two of the bright up-and-comers of 205 Live. Mansoor battled the former Tehuti Miles, now Ashante The Adonis, who has been getting some help from 205 Live veteran The Brian Kendrick.

Mansoor vs Ashante Thee Adonis on 205 Live

Adonis hadn't yet taken Kendrick's advice seriously, as he began showboating following a few hip tosses. Mansoor took advantage, gripping his arm and taking him to the mat.

Mansoor caught Adonis going for a springboard in the corner, squashing his opponent's face between his boot and the top turnbuckle. Adonis was then spiked with an arm-trapped reverse DDT that nearly ended the match right there.

Back inside, the rolling flatliner gave Scott a two-count. Scott caught a boot in the corner and drove Daivari downward with a leg-trapped belly-to-back suplex. Daivari kicked out again and regained his composure well enough for the Uranage slam.

Daivari went up for the biggest win of his 205 Live career. The Persian Lion Splash connected, but Scott kicked out. Scott ducked the Hammerlock Lariat and set up Daivari in the corner for his modified Michinoku Driver.

Daivari kicked Scott away but found himself sitting in the wrong place at the wrong time after a whiffed Sunset Flip. The House Call landed, ending Daivari's 205 Live winning streak.
