Reason Why Cruiserweights Are No Longer Featured On WWE RAW

As seen over the past several months, WWE has stopped using 205 Live Superstars on RAW.

For years now, the sports entertainment company has considered Monday Night RAW as their flagship show. With WWE continuing the trend of rebranding the 205 Live division, some fans were surprised that they would pull cruiserweight matches from RAW.

The reason that WWE stopped featuring 205 Live Superstars on RAW is due to WWE’s strategy to try and change the perception of the cruiserweight division.

According to a report by PWinsider.com, the decision made by the sports entertainment company was when Triple H took over as the 205 Live showrunner as he is in charge of the brand.

Thus, this way it would keep the Superstars from being overexposed and to make sure they were kept in a position where they could be protected.
