Mike Kanellis to make WWE 205 Live in-ring debut next week
After joining the cruiserweight division earlier this month, Mike Kanellis is set to make his 205 Live in-ring debut.
WWE has announced that Kanellis vs. Lince Dorado will be airing on next Wednesday’s episode of 205 Live. The story for the match stems from the angle where Mike & Maria Kanellis made their show debut and interrupted Dorado vs. Lio Rush on the October 10 edition of 205 Live. Kanellis attacked Dorado and laid him out.
A promo with Mike & Maria aired during last night’s show, with Mike explaining the attack by saying that it was just business and wasn’t anything personal.
As was previously announced, Mustafa Ali vs. Hideo Itami in a falls count anywhere match is also set for next week’s 205 Live. It’s the 100th episode of the show, and Tuesday’s 205 Live, SmackDown, and Mixed Match Challenge tapings are being held at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey.
