Hideo Itami is set to join WWE 205 Live

November 29, 2017

NXT Superstar Hideo Itami is set to make his highly-anticipated WWE Cruiserweight division debut.

During a break in the action on WWE 205 Live, it was revealed that NXT Superstar Hideo Itami is coming to the WWE Cruiserweight division. One of the most decorated Superstars in the history of Japanese sports-entertainment, Itami made headlines all over the world when he came to WWE in 2014.

The student of Kenta Kobashi aims to make headlines once again, this time by shaking up the Cruiserweight division and bringing his hard-hitting style to WWE 205 Live. Itami has been known to battle – and defeat – competitors twice his size, a fact that will certainly make things interesting in a division with all competitors weighing in at 205 pounds or less.

Will the Japanese Superstar set his sights directly on the WWE Cruiserweight Championship, or will he attempt to assert dominance and take down the whole division before turning his attention to the top prize?
