The Wrestling Observer reported that 205 Live has been drawing poor numbers on the WWE Network. This past week, the cruiserweight show was not even in the top 20 of the most watched shows on the WWE Network and was watched less than a three month old episode of "Ride Along” and the 1998 Halloween Havoc PPV.

Even though 205 Live is a live show after Smackdown Live airs on Tuesday Night, 205 Live is being outdone by NXT on a weekly basis.
