I read this somewhere else and I'm not sure how much truth there is to it, but apparently it's tough to get time at Full Sail... So, it's easier for WWE to tape it on the road while they're already doing other shows.
Now, why the Cruisers aren't on Smackdown leading into 205 Live, that I definitely can't answer.

I don't know, I kind of agree, 205 live should be it's own thing, but it kind of goes along with the mismanagement of the whole division already. 3 champions already? Now Rich Swann? If they wanted a guy who looked homeless to represent the division they should've stuck with Kendrick who at least has charisma and tons of experience. If it were me, I'd definitely have 205 live as it's own entity, no cruiserweights on Raw, and Kendrick would have been the first and still unbeaten champion until at least the Rumble. The belt and the brand both need prestige. Showing one match on Raw when there's a show dedicated to cruiserweights (not to mention already having 3 champions to the point that none can gain any momentum) really eliminates all of the excitement of the division for me. As for exposure, Kendrick is the only person in the division who has a dynamic enough personality to even be showcased on Raw. In spite of costumes, or backstories, or awesome theme music everyone else is bland. Speaking for myself, when the cruiserweights appear on Raw, unless Kendrick is wrestling or talking, I fast forward. I think Cedric Alexander is the best all around and could easily stand alone if there wasn't even a CW division. |

I love how they already botched 205 Live last night, but not even having it being live! It was taped from Monday night. I suppose that is because Tribute to the Troops was taped last night after Smackdown, but still.... the name says "Live" in it. Also, "the cruiser weights are only on Raw" but they air it live after Smackdown hahaha this is why I felt Kalisto should have won the match at Survivor Series to bring the CW division over to Smackdown. The Cruiserweights ARE only on RAW. 205 Live are taped at the SmackDown tapings but no one who is in the Cruiserweight Division appears during "SmackDown Live". And Kalisto should've won so that the Cruiserweight Division can do what? Lose screen time to James Ellsworth just like everyone else on SmackDown not named Styles, Ambrose, Miz, Ziggler, Orton or Wyatt? |

It is slowly becoming the new Main Event.

I don't like Dar. To be honest, he's one of my least favorite talents on the entire roster.

While Apollo Crews Fashion Police etc are missing in action. But This is rare instance were I don't blame WWE. the full blame belongs on the fans had they not reacted to him, he would have been gone after Braun squashed him. |

205 Live would be great from Full Sail, but it might also help not having Swann, Perkins or Kendrick competing every week and having guys debut like Herp and Derp, The Bollywood Boyz debut then don't mention them at all for two weeks.
Metalik has had one vignette and then nothing. Mustafa and Lince at least had one then showed up right after.
Will take them a while to fully get it sorted. Having it before SmackDown would be great, might actually have a full arena and the crowd might be more invested.

i've enjoyed everything about the division except for the fact that they are featured on raw. i don't watch raw frequently but watch every 205 live.
i have strongly disagreed with most of the critics so far on this project, i feel wwe are on the right path to developing an awesome product.

It's like people expected it to go from 0-100 overnight. It'll take some time. But so far, for the most part, I've been enjoying it. |

Obviously, but if they had planned out their rosters better they could have put the cruisers on Smackdown and just had more heavyweight dudes on Raw. Also, it's not like the Cruisers make up for that entire third hour of Raw. They take up one, maybe two 3-5 minute segments. |

There are around 6-10 guys they're working on as cruiserweight regulars. Which 6-10 heavyweights do you think Smackdown can afford to lose? |

Like I said, they only take up one or two 3-5 minute segments. That could be 2-4 guys, but honestly, I haven't given it that much thought cause it wasn't what I meant to begin with... I didn't word my original point correctly which was just that it didn't make sense to tape it after Smackdown when they aren't on Smackdown. |
