WWE RAW commissioner Stephanie McMahon announced last night that the Cruiserweight division is returning and will be exclusive to the RAW brand.
The decision was inspired by the success of last week’s Cruiserweight Classic premiere, the 10-week series on the WWE Network culminating with a live finale on Wednesday, September 4th. In light of the Cruiserweight division being revived on WWE television, the word going around is that the tournament winner will be crowned the new WWE Cruiserweight Champion.
PWTorch broke the news last week that CWC standout competitors Kota Ibushi and Gran Metalik have signed with WWE. Several others, including Zack Sabre Jr., Cedric Alexander, Lince Dorado, Akira Tozawa, and Jack Gallagher are also on WWE’s radar for this new Cruiserweight division.
Some are already questioning the logic of the division being exclusive to the RAW brand when SmackDown commissioner Shane McMahon has been talking about making his show new and innovative (not to mention SmackDown GM Daniel Bryan co-hosts the CWC with SmackDown announcer Mauro Ranallo), but it’s hard to complain about Cruiserweights getting prominent time on WWE TV and the incredible talent we’ll be seeing in this division.
A CRUISERWEIGHT division on @WWE #RAW after the #WWEDraft you say? Hmm. I've always been quite fond of Monday Nights.. @WWE_CWC
