From WWE:

205 Live is set to play host to a pair of exciting singles collisions, as August Grey will throw down with Tony Nese, while Jake Atlas is primed for a match with Ashante “Thee” Adonis.

With three wins in his last four matches, Adonis is suddenly one of the hottest Superstars on the purple brand. He has seemingly taken The Brian Kendrick’s teachings to heart, as his raw ability is now complemented by an improved focus from bell to bell.

He’ll be opposed by Atlas, who has a recent win over Nese to his credit.

Two weeks ago, Grey passed on the opportunity to end Mansoor’s undefeated streak via count-out when he broke the official’s cadence and was soon rolled up by his opponent.

Grey also scored a recent controversial win against Ariya Daivari, using the ropes for leverage, and he’ll now have to contend with The Persian Prince’s partner, Tony Nese.

Daivari interestingly raised Grey’s hand when Grey picked up a win over Adonis, perhaps admiring how The Life of the Party broke the rules against Daivari himself. What will happen when Grey collides with Nese?

Find out on an exciting edition of 205 Live, streaming Friday at 10/9 C on Peacock in the United States and WWE Network elsewhere.

Fightful will have live coverage of WWE 205 Live beginning at 10 p.m. ET on Friday.
