- Tom Phillips has officially joined the WWE 205 Live announce team. Phillips called this week's episode from the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas with Aiden English.

As noted, Tom made his WWE NXT UK commentary team debut this week and will be calling that show with Nigel McGuinness each week. Tom had been calling WWE SmackDown until Michael Cole and Corey Graves took over last week. 205 Live had been called by English, Vic Joseph and Dio Maddin until last week when Joseph and Maddin took over RAW with WWE Hall of Famer Jerry Lawler. Tom previously worked on 205 Live until Joseph replaced him.

- It looks like NXT Superstar Isaiah "Swerve" Scott will have more of a presence on WWE 205 Live moving forward now that the Cruiserweight Title has been re-branded as the NXT Cruiserweight Title, currently held by Lio Rush.
