The writing staff is yet to figure out the recipe to gain the attention of the masses as far as 205 Live and the Cruiserweight presentation on RAW are concerned. The purple ropes and lighting aren't doing much for the general audience either. I'm worried that they're going to get relegated to the "piss break" segment of the show.
The real answer is cruiserweights don't appeal to the audience that attends RAW or SDL. WWE put tons of effort into getting these guys over, but the average wrestling fan just doesn't care for guys who look like they should be riding horses at the Kentucky Derby. I think the future of 205 Live will be at Full Sail, where you have a couple hundred hardcore fans that will treat those guys like stars.
