At the start of tonight’s 205 Live, Daniel Bryan announced that “Enzo Amore has abdicated the WWE Cruiserweight championship and will no longer be a part of 205 Live.” Enzo, of course, has been released by WWE.
Bryan also announced that “next week, a 205 Live General Manager will be named, and his or her first course of action will be to address the Cruiserweight championship situation.”
On behalf of WWE, it is my duty to inform you that Enzo Amore has abdicated the WWE Cruiserweight championship and will no longer be a part of 205 Live. I wanted to be the one to address this situation because of my personal connection to the Cruiserweight division. I was very proud to work on the Cruiserweight Classic, which inspired the creation of 205 Live. I know first hand about the untapped potential that lies within the superstars of 205 Live. So, it is my pleasure to announce that next week, a 205 Live General Manager will be named, and his or her first course of action will be to address the Cruiserweight championship situation. Whomever is chosen for this responsibility, I know that it will be someone who will give this brand the direction it needs so that it can deliver the exciting, breathtaking in-ring action that you all deserve.
