WWE 205 Live results (April 30, 2019): Daivari chases Nese’s title

WWE 205 Live returns to WWE Network tonight (April 30, 2019), live on Tuesday nights, with a show from the Schottenstein Center in Columbus, Ohio.

Advertised for tonight: Ariya Daivari beat Oney Lorcan to become #1 contender last week, and now we watch to see if he can stay on a roll heading into his eventual Cruiserweight title fight with the Premiere Champ, Tony Nese. Drew Gulak persuaded General Manager Drake Maverick to give him a chance to prove he can take Nese’s strap, and they’ll face off in non-title action.

Come right back here at 10 p.m. ET. We’ll update all the results from 205 Live live as it airs on WWE Network below the line.

Enjoy the show!

• Drew Gulak opens the show with a promo talking about how he’s going to turn the opportunity Tony Nese has given him into history by tapping him out.
• The Singh Brothers get a bit of promo time ahead of their match, reintroducing themselves as our beloved heroes of the cruiserweight division and talk up their time with Jinder Mahal as if they were personally wrestling the likes of Randy Orton and AJ Styles and they’re here to take the division into the future.
• Lucha House Party (Gran Metalik & Lince Dorado) over the Singh Brothers (Samir & Sunil Singh) by pinfall with a shooting star press from Dorado on Samir.
• Drake Maverick is in his office on his phone when Humberto Carrillo rolls up. He congratulates and advises Humberto to steer clear of Drew Gulak, and Carrillo says he’s proud to represent lucha libre. Jack Gallagher shows up and says he’s not medically cleared to compete, but in two weeks in London he will be, so keep him in mind. He bears Humberto no ill will and says they have some unsettled business as opponents and shakes his hand.
• Brian Kendrick is attacked by Mike Kanellis during his entrance! Akira Tozawa makes the save! He and Kanellis brawl around ringside and Drake Maverick comes down with some referees to pull them apart.
• Ariya Daivari gets a handcam promo where he boasts about his rise to be a contender and tells Tony Nese he’s about to get ripped limb from limb by Drew Gulak and this story ends in him winning the title.
• Commentary informs us Akira Tozawa vs. Mike Kanellis in a no DQ match will be next week’s main event.
• Tony Nese over Drew Gulak by pinfall with the running knee.
• That’s the show, folks.
