WWE is pretty obsessed with social media and as the company constantly looks for new ways to expand the WWE Universe, it appears as if the latest is going to be through Facebook. They already have 38.6 million Likes and it's easy to imagine a Facebook Live show like this making good use of the format and drawing plenty of interest from new and old wrestling fans alike. 

The plan, apparently, is for the show to air immediately after SmackDown Live goes off the air on Tuesday nights at
10pm. That means 205 Live would take place before that show, a good place for it as it means arriving fans would be forced to watch it as opposed to walking out as soon as it starts! Nothing is confirmed right now, though, so we're obviously going to have to wait and see.

Interestingly, this won't be a new version of Talking Smack as it will actually be a combination of RAW and SmackDown talent (jobbers, probably) competing against each other for brand supremacy!

The idea of mixed tag team matches has also been teased but it's clear WWE has some big plans for this show and it could find a lot of success on Facebook Live. What do you think about this news?
