WWE 205 Live 2/19/2021

Last week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2021/02/wwe-205-live-2122021.html

Jake Atlas, Mansoor, Curt Stallion and Ashante "Thee" Adonis vs Ever-Rise and The Bollywood Boyz

E-R drops double fists early on Mansoor. Mansoor is put in an armlock and swings around the middle rope to get out then the Boyz drop a double elbow on Adonis. Adonis does a nice shoulder throw on Martel. Atlas does an outside to inside springboard armdrag on Martel then Atlas and Stallion double shoulder Martel. Parker pushes Curt into the ropes and he knocks Sunil off the apron.

Martel then almost gets knocked off the apron and during that distraction, the Boyz get a cheapshot on Adonis. Adonis continues to get beat up. Ever-Rise trips him then Chase jumps off of Martel's back with an elbow on Adonis' back. Samir comes off the top with a top rope back elbow on Adonis. Martel goes to slam Samir on Adonis but Adonis moves and tags out. Atlas runs up the ropes with Martel's hand then armdrags him and headscissors Parker. Curt is tagged in and on Sunil but tags to Adonis. Adonis hits a nice dropkick on Parker.

Adonis flapjacks Parker into a Mansoor death valley driver. The Boys do a superplex and a top rope elbow on Mansoor but only get 2. Mansoor falcon arrows Sunil and Adonis superkicks Parker. Sunil hits a spinning heel kick on Atlas. Martel accidentally trips Sunil and Curt basically shoulders Sunil to win.

This wasn't anything too special but it wasn't bad or anything. It mostly was here to show how Ever-Rise and The Bollywood Boyz can't work together. I don't think they have won with each other yet.

The Boys and Ever-Rise argue after.

August Grey does a promo. He says his favorite singer is 2 Chainz, in reference to him taking Daivari's chains last week. He gets jumped and stomped by Ariya Daivari within seconds then Nese helps. Ariya takes his chains back.

They showed the Regal/Escobar video from NXT with Escobar getting out of his match with Kross. Then they showed the Karrion Kross promo that followed.

August Grey vs Ariya Daivari with Tony Nese

Grey gets some punches in on Ariya and takes Ariya's knee to the gut. Grey punches Ariya at the announcer's table then he does his rope walk into the twisting crossbody on the inside. Nese said they got their payback and this is just to make a fool of Grey. Grey hits a backdrop for 2. Ariya hits a nice DDT for 2.

They fight over a backslide and Grey drops down and gets a 2 count on a pin. Grey hits a neckbreaker. Ariya hits a spinning rock bottom for 2. Grey superkicks Ariya and hits some lariats and a northern lights bomb. Grey lariats Ariya onto the apron and he falls to the floor then Grey topes him. Grey and Nese stare down. Nese asks how his beating was earlier and Ariya hits his hammerlock lariat for the win.

This really shoulder have been more of a grudge match with both guys being more aggressive and vicious towards each other. The actual match was okay though.

Overall thoughts: As usual, this was anything too special and wasn't exactly must-see, but they did have some storylines going on here at least.
