The Cruiserweight division is going to become a jobber division so fast.

The final holder of the previous WWE Cruiserweight championship was Hornswoggle. No matter how fast it becomes a jobber title, it can still only go up.

Having Chris Jericho demand to enter the Cruiserweight Division (and get rolled by the new talent because he's an old man) would be amazing.

The New Age Outlaws getting the tag titles was indefensible but there was one moment where they rolled out of the ring after taking some fancy moves to have a conversation that went "what the hell was that? I don't know what any of those moves were" when they were perfect.

NXT is already using the cruisers as enhancement talent for the heavyweights.

Also braun is already doing his squashing cruisers/lucha guys gimmick so I give it maybe a week.

wouldn't it make more sense that they're doing this solely so suddenly a cruiserweight like tozawa breaks his streak for a genuine wtf moment

In a lot of other companies I would think this, but the WWE has always treated the cruisers as being second class citizens in this respect, and every time they do a streak or gimmick like they are with Braun they never seem to have a plan for actually using it to get anyone else over. Like Rodney Mack's white boy challenge and Angles invitational are both things where everyone expected them to be building to someone else having a big moment, but after the fact its emerged from the writers that they that was never the plan.

They had Sean Maluta and Mustafa Ali, two guys who aren't exactly going to be big stars in the cruiserweight division, lose to Hideo Itami who is absolutely not a heavyweight.

That's why I've long since started including the tweets that were referenced. Skinty should have done the same.

And Kota Ibushi beat Buddy Murphy. In other words, that guy is full of poo poo.

The only CWC matches I see in the spoilers are TM61 over Daivari & Nese and Itami over Gulak. None of those strike me as bad at all. Also, still no heavyweights.

I'm hearing that the guys who are unlikely to get contracts or be on Raw at all are being used as enhancement talent for people actually under contract...well...this is an outrage!!!

My favourite memories of the last Cruiserweight title was WWE jobbing out whoever was Cruiserweight champ to everyone while putting out DVD's shaming WCW for ignoring the talent of the Cruiserweights.

That and Billy Kidman nearly killing Chavo with his SSP.

It's kinda sad that whenever Big Show isn't on the road he immediately gets into better shape and obviously has far better control of his diet. Then he gets back to doing what he loves but can't maintain the same workout/diet that he can at home.
