WWE 205 Live

WWE 205 Live is an American professional wrestling streaming television program that was produced by WWE. It premiered on November 29, 2016 as a replacement for WWE Superstars, and ended on February 11, 2022. The show originally aired exclusively on the WWE Network until March 2021 when the American version of the WWE Network merged under Peacock, after which, it was available on Peacock in the United States and the WWE Network in international markets. The show was originally centered around cruiserweights, male competitors billed at a maximum weight of 205 lbs. from the namesake 205 Live brand. With some exceptions, the show originally aired live (as its name implied) at 10pm Eastern Time following WWE's primary television program, SmackDown, and was broadcast from the same venue. By 2020, 205 Live episodes were pre-taped on the Tuesday before its airing. In October 2019, 205 Live was integrated with the NXT brand with cruiserweights from both NXT and NXT UK appearing on the show. By August 2021, the show included female competitors as well as male competitors above the weight limit. The final episode of the series aired on February 11, 2022. On February 18, it was replaced by NXT Level Up.
