00:00Tonight, it's Zena Stirling against Serena Linton.
00:08Live up to your potential.
00:11I need you to step up your game.
00:13Harlem Lewis takes on sexy DJ Ray.
00:16I'm this off right now.
00:18I have the effector.
00:19Panina Tualepa goes head-to-head against Bailey Humphrey.
00:22She's a big girl.
00:23She's a strong girl.
00:24It doesn't scare me.
00:25And in our main event, it's Shiloh Hill versus Anthony Luce.
00:30This is Marshall.
00:32Once the bell rings, we're going to find out who the top dogs really are in LFT.
00:42At the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, Florida.
00:47Are you supposed to put your chin up or like to the side?
00:49You're supposed to not be afraid.
00:51It's been a few days since WWE legend Bubba Ray Dudley exploded.
00:55And walked off the set.
00:59It's obvious what's going on right now.
01:03This seems like one big conspiracy here.
01:08Because that's the frontrunner.
01:11And we all know it.
01:13Come here.
01:17They have it out for you.
01:19Can Bubba be hot-headed?
01:22Absolutely.
01:23I'll tell the whole room to go f**k itself if I have to.
01:27That's the third time they voted the same way.
01:32What, really?
01:34Bulls**t.
01:36Sabotage.
01:37Collusion.
01:38Conspiracy.
01:38They know damn well that Xena is the one to beat.
01:45Here's what's going on.
01:48Xena showed more fire in that match than she ever had.
01:56Yes, Kanina did well.
01:58But more than Xena, absolutely freaking not.
02:01Here's the problem.
02:02We expect it from Xena.
02:07Try to tell me I'm wrong.
02:10What, really?
02:12Yeah, I would walk off too.
02:15That's laughable.
02:17Wow.
02:18So Bubba storms off.
02:19Don't know where he goes.
02:20And all I'm thinking is, like, we gotta put some big boy britches on.
02:24He refuses to see that anybody else could possibly take the place of his milk ticket Xena.
02:32He refuses to see that Kanina is the frontrunner.
02:35He refuses to see that she has the potential to win this entire thing.
02:40Welcome to the Ultimate Proving Draft.
02:5116 future greats.
02:58Four legends.
03:00He is the epitome of WrestleMania.
03:03Aim high, you better aim hard, because I'm going to do whatever it takes.
03:06Beaver's at the table.
03:08A chance to win an NXT contract.
03:17Every legend has a first chapter.
03:20The future starts now.
03:27Morning at the WWE Performance Center finds Serena Linton in medical.
03:33Why didn't we do confessionals with you last week?
03:34Because I was choked unconscious.
03:38Bailey put me in a gorilla press, and all I remember is not being able to breathe, and then slowly just fading to black.
03:45It was really scary.
03:50I've never blacked out before, so I was more so than anything just shaken up and really confused on what just happened.
03:58I've never experienced anything like that in my life.
04:00After I got choked unconscious, I was really uncertain of what was going to happen moving forward, whether I was going to be able to return to wrestling or not.
04:10I got notified the morning of our matches that I had to go see medical, and they cleared me.
04:17I was really excited because I didn't want to be held back, and I didn't want this to stop the momentum that I've been having this season.
04:26What's everybody doing today?
04:33There is a lot to cover.
04:35Oh, my goodness.
04:37Injuries are clearly a big part of this.
04:42I believe, Bubba, you have had an incident now with Elijah Holyfield.
04:48Our medical team will let us know what the future looks like.
04:52Elijah Holyfield is injured, and we don't know when he's coming back.
04:58What does this mean?
05:00It means that the weight of the world is now unseen as Sterling.
05:04Can't put it all on BJ.
05:08BJ is...
05:10I don't even know the right words.
05:13Injuries happen, bro.
05:15It is what it is.
05:16It doesn't really affect Team Bubba.
05:19You got sexy BJ Ray still here, baby?
05:21Come on now.
05:22It's the halfway point of the season.
05:25Shawn Michaels wants to know who the two top dogs are on LFG.
05:29That's what this is going to be about.
05:32After your legends pick top man, top woman on their team,
05:41those individuals will have matches to determine who is top man or woman in this group.
05:53So, at this point, Booker T, give me one man, give me one woman.
05:58You're putting me on the spot.
05:59You're putting me on the spot.
06:01Everything's always a test.
06:03So, uh, I gotta go with Harlem.
06:05I knew this was something I wanted to do for the rest of my life,
06:07and I want to be on the main events of every single PLE, not just NXT I'm talking about.
06:12I want to be up at SmackDown and Raw and then go to WrestleMania and SummerSlam.
06:16For the ladies, it's gotta be Serena.
06:18She's a winner.
06:20Bubba, your team is one person short.
06:24Who are you picking on the ladies first?
06:26So, Xena is my frontrunner for the ladies.
06:29By default, BJ is my guy right now.
06:32Let's go, coach. Let's go.
06:34Brayden has so much potential.
06:36Yes, he's, you know, kind of an ass,
06:38but he is the kind of character and the kind of superstar
06:42that people will pay money to see get beat up.
06:46No, Sherlock.
06:48I've been putting the team on my back ever since I started this entire competition, bro.
06:52So, you know what I'm gonna do?
06:53I'm just gonna keep doing what I do.
06:56I'll keep it short.
06:58My top man, top woman at this point is P. Nasty and Anthony Luke.
07:02Being the top guy right now, this is just the beginning for me.
07:06This is my story, and it's my job to finish it.
07:11Everybody needs to dial in for sure.
07:14Shiloh Bailey.
07:16It was cool to hear that, you know, he sees me and Bailey as the two top dogs on the team,
07:20and that's a good indication of things moving forward.
07:23So I want to try to do everything I can do to remain in that spot.
07:28I'm pretty pissed off, if I'm being completely honest.
07:31I'm not trying to take away from Bailey's abilities whatsoever.
07:34I know that she's a freak athlete, but at the end of the day,
07:36I'm the only woman on our team that has received a unanimous point from all of the legends.
07:40So I'm not gonna let it happen again.
07:43All right.
07:45Right now, that's where we're at in the middle of the season.
07:48Those of you that did not get picked understand this, and you know it.
07:53We're only halfway there.
07:55So good luck.
07:56We'll tear it down.
07:57I'm kind of getting a little frustrated with Harlem.
08:08Really?
08:09Why?
08:11Know it all?
08:11I watch his body language, you know?
08:14Talking?
08:15Yeah, you think he's got this thing, you know?
08:18You think he can really do it.
08:19Look at how he's talking.
08:21I don't need to take the slow route.
08:22I want to be fast-tracked to the top.
08:25And if this gets to a certain point where I feel like it's starting to screw with my own career,
08:29then I think I'm gonna have to just take the reins on it.
08:32When you're in the ring, it's a fight.
08:34That was my thought process with the beginning half of it.
08:36So that we can get, establish who he is, establish who I am,
08:39before we even get into his shine.
08:42If it was Bubba and I, I think Bubba and I would do it totally differently.
08:48Damn it, I'm the damn general on this team!
08:52You're a soldier.
08:56You're private.
08:57Right now.
08:59In this wrestling business,
09:00everything is a test.
09:03Everything, okay?
09:06While Booker T tries to find common ground with Harlem Lewis,
09:11Bubba Ray Dudley comes to the realization on why Zena Sterling hasn't scored a point this season.
09:16Collusion, conspiracy, I can sit here and I can say that.
09:19I can also make a case for Zena resting on her laurels,
09:26which I don't want to do.
09:29Here's the problem.
09:32Who is Zena supposed to get better with?
09:35And that's the issue with Zena right now.
09:38She's too damn good.
09:42Rough spot.
09:44I gotta get her through it.
09:47Live up to your potential.
09:50How are you getting to the finals?
09:55How do you prove them all wrong?
09:57Stepping up my game.
10:05You better really step up your game.
10:08Zena Sterling!
10:12They really thought they'd seen the last of me.
10:16Pathetic!
10:17I'd wrestle in a cast.
10:19I'd wrestle with one leg health.
10:20I'd crawl to that ring if I had to.
10:22I fear nothing.
10:26And to anybody who doubts what this little ball of spice is capable of,
10:32choke on it.
10:35Back on Legends and Future Greats.
10:47Vic Joseph alongside the legend himself, Jeremy Borash.
10:52We're talking about Sweeney Linton and that scary situation that unfolded a few weeks ago.
10:57I kind of want to get your thoughts on where do you think her headspace is at?
11:01Beautiful work.
11:02Beautiful work there.
11:03Beautiful work.
11:04Look at that.
11:06Look at that.
11:06Look at that.
11:07Nice.
11:08Nice.
11:08Look at that all, boy.
11:10Nice.
11:11Look at the body placement, the movement.
11:14I'm loving this.
11:19Beautiful work.
11:20Beautiful work.
11:23Certainly after what we've seen between these two individuals and the legends and their involvement,
11:28a lot of confidence for Serena Linton.
11:30But after what we've seen with Booker and his backing of Serena Linton as a talent,
11:36he really has his eyes set as a possibility that she can win it all.
11:40And she's in a good place to do so.
11:41Shoulders are down.
11:42And remember here on LFG, not about wins and losses.
11:45It's all about getting a point.
11:47It's all about getting a point.
11:56Oh, what?
11:57Oh, man.
12:00Let's be honest.
12:02Those points I was talking about are very valuable to not only the athletes in the ring, but also the coaches.
12:07Because any time Booker gets a point, he lets you, your cousin, your brother, your brother's girlfriend, your sister's brother,
12:13everybody knows about it.
12:15Well, one thing about Booker T, he's very, well, he's forthright.
12:18He's honest about his opinions on his talent.
12:19He's very, you know, if you're going to have a coach in this, if you're going to have a legend to back you,
12:24you're going to want Booker T because he's all in, he's invested, and he'll talk the talk on your behalf.
12:30Whereas somebody like The Undertaker, he puts in the hours, he puts in the time, hands-on training that we've seen.
12:36Well, that's a whole different story.
12:38Did you just call Booker lazy?
12:40A lot of them don't kick out with their legs.
12:43They kick out with their shoulders.
12:44They don't use their legs to kick out.
12:47Bubba's one of those guys, though.
12:48He'll fight.
12:50He'll go to battle.
12:50He'll go to war to prove that not only are you his student, his prize people, you're his.
12:55And, you know, he's certainly been that way with Xena since the get-go.
12:58Well, I'm glad you bring that up because another cover, shoulders down one more time, another near fall.
13:03I don't know if it's over the last few days being around him,
13:05but as Bubba's starting to recognize that maybe Xena is coasting, if you will, here on LFG.
13:10I think the problem with Xena this season has been a lot of people have so many high hopes for her,
13:16so many different ways that she can achieve greatness,
13:19that the bar has been raised to a level that maybe even she can't even meet.
13:23And look, Bubba's trying to push her to do more, whether it's on the offense or right now
13:26as she's on the defense trying to create a little bit of separation.
13:29Do you think she should be farther ahead than some others here on LFG?
13:35Follow through with those. Come on.
13:38You know what? I think this whole thing, this whole process is alerting her.
13:41And as we've seen...
13:42Stop selling your shoulder.
13:44That's exactly what I mean.
13:45You're right. And I talked to her earlier.
13:47You're right. You're a thousand percent right.
13:50She's a student of the game. There's no question about it.
13:52She studies tape. She knows her stuff.
13:55She's studying great British wrestlers.
13:57You've seen that style implemented.
14:00Xena Sterling is evolving as we speak.
14:02So is Serena Linton going up high risk.
14:05Nobody home coming right back around.
14:07Church of the world.
14:07Asked from Sterling into the cover.
14:10Deep hook of the leg.
14:11And Xena Sterling picks up the W.
14:15Here is your winner, Xena Sterling!
14:20Yes!
14:23Can we work with that?
14:24Like, why are you selling your shoulder so much on?
14:26Yeah. Yeah.
14:28Serena Linton.
14:30One of the breakout stars this year.
14:32Yeah.
14:34And the job.
14:34Thank God.
14:36Not only among the coaches in the ring, but also on social media.
14:40She keeps going back to the shoulder.
14:42And when we talked about it earlier, she's like,
14:43You're right. I have to stop doing it.
14:45Undertaker told me the same thing,
14:47But she instinctually went back to it today.
14:49Xena may have won, but who will earn the point on LFG?
14:58I want to make Bubba proud.
15:00I want to, you know, like, obviously he was very upset with me today
15:03And how I've been performing.
15:05I need you to step up your game.
15:09I need you to do better.
15:11I need you to be what you know you can be.
15:15And that wrestling fans who want to support you know,
15:19Look at my eyes.
15:22Don't look away.
15:23Looking away is a sign of weakness.
15:26I absolutely feel pressure.
15:27Yes, because this is my dream.
15:29As everyone knows from season one.
15:31I'm so grateful to be in a situation with pressure
15:35Because pressure is what makes a superstar.
15:38It's what makes a diamond.
15:39And I know I can become that.
15:47I have a lot to prove.
15:48When I came in here, I got a point in my first match.
15:51And I was expecting to get points in every single one of my matches.
15:54I know what I need to do to look good.
15:56And I know what I need to work on.
15:57So I'm going to make sure I get that in.
15:58But at the same time, you've got to be able to tell a story.
16:00And you've got to be able to work with anyone.
16:02It doesn't matter who it is.
16:03We kind of had a little bit of a difficult time putting the match together.
16:06You've got to think that this is the first time anybody has ever seen you guys.
16:09That's the way I need you.
16:10I can be wrong.
16:12I can be wrong.
16:13You're not wrong.
16:14I wouldn't do it.
16:15Okay?
16:16I'm just saying.
16:17I was starting to get a little frustrated.
16:19But it doesn't matter.
16:21Because at the end of the day, all that matters is the point.
16:23So I'm just going to do exactly what I need to do to get that point.
16:25You've got to get the cat-cows in and make sure you're warmed up.
16:27Especially when you wrestle tomorrow, let me know what I'm saying.
16:30What's happening?
16:32Yes, sir.
16:33You already know, baby.
16:34Bubba ain't got no choice now but to get behind the number one player.
16:37The number one guy in the locker room.
16:38The number one guy on his team.
16:40Sucks for Holyfield, but hey, that's the name of the game.
16:42I got hurt last year.
16:43I got hurt last season.
16:44I might get knocked off the horse, but I get right back on the saddle right away.
16:47And now Bubba has no choice but to get on that horse, bro.
16:49Ha, ha, ha.
16:53Hit the bell.
16:54You have polar opposites right here in the middle of the ring.
17:15These two lock it up.
17:16Couldn't be more different from each other from a personality standpoint.
17:19Well, Harlem Lewis in control right now.
17:22And look, we talk about Booker and all joking aside, you heard what Booker T's comments were
17:26at the start.
17:26His biggest frustration with Harlem that I've gathered.
17:29He wants him to figure it out for himself.
17:32Harlem Lewis in control of BJ Ray here on LFG.
17:35BJ Ray now in control of Harlem Lewis.
17:47Wait, does BJ, but who's the heel?
17:51Well, I don't know who's, well, I know BJ's supposed to be the baby face.
17:55Right, okay.
17:56Harlem's supposed to be the heel, but they're playing the reverse roles right now.
18:00Okay.
18:00All of them just did an arm drag, you know.
18:05They're just doing me just like that.
18:10Full of all sorts of aggression you heard from Booker.
18:13He thinks that he's farther along than he believes he is.
18:17Well, and Booker G has that sense, that frustration as a coach to see so much potential.
18:22And one thing as Booker has shown over the course of time here on LFG is he has some patience,
18:28but he also has a lot of wisdom that he's partaking and shares with his future great.
18:34Well, Harlem is not exactly like Shiloh Hill.
18:36We've seen Shiloh Hill's relationship with his legend, that of course being the Undertaker.
18:41Well, certainly what we've seen from Harlem Lewis, just smash mouth offense.
18:45You're not going to see a lot of smiling from this man.
18:49He's dangerous in every aspect, but BJ Ray certainly feel the front of that offense right now.
18:55He's dead!
18:56You guys feeding this guy?
18:58Found it!
18:59He's feeding this guy.
19:01I mean, not like he's been sitting in catering all day, but look for BJ Ray as he gets covered,
19:05hooked with a leg by Lewis and Ray able to kick out.
19:07You've gotten the sense over the last two years here on LFG that for BJ Ray,
19:13he feels more comfortable on the other side of the coin.
19:16That is being a heel instead of being a face.
19:20Well, one thing about BJ is he's himself, and that inherently, I think, would be a heel.
19:26That's true.
19:26I think if you look at anybody who meets this man, you go, this guy is not likable at all.
19:31It's a quality, believe it or not.
19:32You can see the legends continuing to look on at this matchup.
19:36Big right hand there from Ray.
19:38BJ Ray trying to charge in.
19:41Dear God.
19:42Why?
19:42He's not running through those.
19:43There is no impact.
19:47As I mentioned before, I mean, all opposites.
19:50You see so much intensity from Harlem Lewis.
19:51Maybe you're not seeing that right now with BJ Ray.
19:54You saw that bulldog, and now let's maybe see now something from BJ Ray.
20:01Too much.
20:02He's small.
20:06Cover.
20:07Kick out.
20:10I feel like he's got to do something about that.
20:12You need to get rid of it.
20:13He's hitting the rope way too fast.
20:19Looking for the suplex now is Ray.
20:21Gotta wonder what's going through these competitors' minds, too.
20:24And back to Harlem Lewis, who's trying to turn things around in this matchup
20:27with a massive suplex.
20:29Wait a minute.
20:30Counter.
20:30Inside cradle.
20:31BJ Ray got him.
20:33Here's your winner, BJ Ray.
20:38Hooray!
20:41Okay, not about wins and losses.
20:45What's going through the mind of our legends?
20:47What's going through the mind of our Hall of Famers here tonight on LFG?
20:52Was it good enough for BJ Ray to earn a point?
20:54Because it's not about the wins or the losses, whether it's for the men or the women.
21:00Big decision still to come here tonight.
21:02I can do whatever I want to do because they love me so much.
21:15I have the it factor.
21:16I'm that guy.
21:18Bubba's kind of a douche.
21:20Bro's actually the epitome of the worst coach of all time.
21:22But at the end of the day, I think the future's good for Team Bubba.
21:26He's got sexy BJ Ray, baby.
21:30That's it.
21:30That's it.
21:31While BJ Ray celebrates his victory, his opponent must face the hard truth that tonight he came
21:40up short.
21:41Harlem, what happened out there?
21:43For me personally, I know what I got to work on.
21:45And it's like, I'm pissed off right now.
21:48And I'm stuff that I'll talk to Booker about.
21:50I mean, we're eight weeks in and I'm clearly, I guess, not on the same page.
21:54So it's just something that, like, we're going to have to get sorted out.
21:57While Harlem Lewis obsesses over what could have been, Undertaker and his wife, Michelle
22:05McCool, take a moment to motivate their teams.
22:08Because once the bell rings tonight, they'll be fighting for family honor.
22:14I'm not losing to my husband.
22:15No.
22:16I am not losing to my husband.
22:18Yes.
22:20Always creeping.
22:21He's trying to get our tricks.
22:22See, he secretly wants to know my tips, my tricks.
22:26Well, I'm a little scared, though.
22:26Don't be scared.
22:28I got y'all.
22:29I got y'all.
22:30I do love him.
22:31I love you a lot.
22:34You ain't got motivated by now.
22:36There's nothing I can say.
22:37Fair enough.
22:38Look, I put y'all on a task.
22:41Don't this up.
22:44Backstage before Panina Tualepa's match against Bailey Humphrey, her biggest fan pays her a
22:50visit.
22:50That's my dad.
22:53Pop's nasty is the reason why P-nasty is P-nasty.
22:58She's got me three points on my team.
22:59Killing it.
23:01That's it.
23:04That's it.
23:04And you guys wonder why P-nasty is the way I am.
23:06That's all right.
23:07I like it.
23:08I appreciate it.
23:09I appreciate it.
23:10I wanted him to see me succeed because of his sacrifices.
23:14I wanted my dad to see all the benefits and everything that I am reaping now because of what
23:21he laid out.
23:22I feel happy for her because she actually came here to do a job.
23:27She's succeeding.
23:27I see she's still surviving.
23:29Now I'm paying him back and showing him, you know, your love and your discipline that
23:33you instilled in me is paying off.
23:35That's why I said this season is different.
23:37This is P-nasty show now.
23:38That's it.
23:39You're here to do a job.
23:41Cut the bulls**t.
23:44I heard that all my life.
23:45On the sidelines.
23:46Every single game I used to step on the rugby field, my dad used to look at me dead in
23:50my face, tell me cut the bulls**t or do what you got to do.
23:53Hearing that, I already knew I was going to kill Bayley and that's all I'm here to do.
23:57Get my coach, the nice little title around her waist, and me, the damn contract.
24:03I'm ready to be on TV tomorrow.
24:13Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the legendary coaches from LFG.
24:18And the first WWE Hall of Famer, Michelle McCool.
24:23Yeah.
24:23And next, he became the first ever reigning, defending, the new.
24:46The new LFG champion, the Undertaker.
25:01Here comes the chance.
25:07According to Booker, that is under protest.
25:10You don't think for a minute Undertaker would hold that championship up in front of everyone
25:18so loud, so proud, just for the idea of upsetting your NXT co-broadcaster Booker T.
25:25Taker wouldn't do that.
25:26Would he not, man?
25:27I don't think so.
25:28He's trying to rip the gold away from his wife.
25:30Nonetheless, welcome in ringside.
25:32It's LFG, Big Show.
25:33Alongside Jeremy Boras.
25:34Jeremy, it's another opportunity, it's another chance for those athletes to prove themselves.
25:40Well, it's time for the best of the best.
25:42Who are the standouts on each team?
25:44We're going to see them in action right here, right now.
25:48These are going to be good matches.
25:53Oh yeah, here we go.
25:55Want that dream?
25:57Want that dream?
25:59Want that dream?
26:00The following contest is scheduled for, what for?
26:06Introducing first, representing FIFA 2, Panina Pila Epstein.
26:15Why is she in such a bad mood?
26:19She's not a bad mood, she's in killer mode.
26:21Killer mode.
26:24Well, I want to ask you a question here, JB, because you kind of hit on it already.
26:28How did we get to this point with these athletes here tonight?
26:33It was put out by Shawn Michaels.
26:35Who is your frontrunner?
26:36Who is your standout midseason?
26:39And their choices?
26:40Well, we're seeing them in action here tonight.
26:43This should be interesting.
26:45And her totally didn't listen to me.
26:49Oh, there she goes.
26:51Bailey Paul Green!
26:56Now, The Undertaker may have the championship from season one.
27:02This woman right here may just bring him season two's championship as well.
27:09Good gosh almighty.
27:10Wait, wait, this last one.
27:11Wow, and maybe championship gold in her own future as well.
27:15Bailey Humphrey stepping into the ring.
27:18T-Nasty and Bailey, this is like the Andre Hogan of the female cast of LFG.
27:27This is going to be good.
27:28I'm fired up like already.
27:30I can't.
27:32Ooh, good lock off.
27:37Who is the nastier of the two?
27:40Who is the meaner of the two?
27:43Well, I'll tell you what.
27:44You better choose your words very carefully.
27:47I would not want to cross P-Nasty in any way, shape, or form.
27:53Bailey also a very friendly individual until she's not.
27:57And obviously the size and the strength of both of these incredible athletes.
28:01So much fun to watch and in a very short time.
28:03And we keep saying this, but it's worth repeating.
28:06These are rookies in the truest sense, in the truest form.
28:11Brand new to this process.
28:13And through the incredible coaching they get here at the Performance Center,
28:16they are able to hone their craft.
28:18And of course the legends, Michelle McCool, Undertaker as well.
28:22You know, I think that's an important thing that you just brought up, JB,
28:25about the time frame.
28:26Because some people might have watched season one, watching season two,
28:29seeing some familiar faces.
28:32It's all about the fact that at the end of the day,
28:35a P-Nasty, a Bailey Humphrey are still...
28:38You're talking about less than a year of experience.
28:44Less than two handfuls worth of matches.
28:46Very much so.
28:47You know, the way wrestlers now are trained in 2025,
28:51the way you are now inducted into this industry,
28:53it's obviously evolved in the course of time.
28:56And right now, Penina and Bailey are two great examples of athletes
29:01that are coming in from different backgrounds.
29:04Wow.
29:05Yeah.
29:06Where has that been?
29:07Yeah.
29:07Different places and able to shine here on the LFG stage.
29:11This is the first chapter in what would be a pretty incredible career
29:14if most people have their other foresight to see this.
29:17Atta girl, get older.
29:19How pivotal is this matchup for these two just here on LFG?
29:24Well, when you're declared a standout by your legend,
29:26when you're singled out as the team leader,
29:30you have a responsibility to not only outshine your fellow future greats,
29:34but to win this, to take it home,
29:36to get that contract awarded by the Heartbreak Kid,
29:39Shawn Michaels, at the end of the season.
29:40And that's what both of these ladies have every intention of doing.
29:43P. Nasty, charge it back in, just delivered a spear.
29:54Listen to the WWE Universe.
29:59Nasty into the cover and-
30:02Come on, come on.
30:04That's how we coach, we're always in the right place.
30:08Make her pay, Panina, make her pay.
30:09Always be in the right place.
30:10Not about wins and losses, it's the impression that you make.
30:14Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on.
30:15It's the impression that you leave.
30:16And when Panina, when Bayley, and any of the other future greats are in the ring,
30:21it's about making that impression.
30:23Big Samoan drop, and not enough to put down Humphrey.
30:31Sorry that I cut you off in your moment there.
30:34But what a power move from Panina, right in the, bam, center of the ring.
30:39Bayley Humphrey's showing you maybe a different gear that she is starting to
30:43learn as Panina raining down rights.
30:47Might be taking a little bit too much time though, JB.
30:51Look out.
30:52Take too much time, and now Bayley.
30:54Her facials are good.
30:57Powerbomb.
30:58One, two, three.
31:02Bayley Humphrey picks up the win.
31:04That was good, that was freaking good.
31:06Here's the winner, Bayley Humphrey.
31:13Showcase her power, showcased her strength.
31:17In the end, Bayley, bam.
31:19Humphrey also showcased her grit to pick up a hard-fought victory here against Panina.
31:27Good job, B!
31:29And in the end, she also proved The Undertaker correct.
31:34Who will be the standout male and female in this episode?
31:38We are going to find out, yet to come, on this edition of LFG.
31:44I'm the one that just slammed P-Nasty in that ring.
31:47There's only room for one top female in the LFG.
31:51I'm the face of women's wrestling, and she better not forget that.
31:58While he prepares for his main event match against Anthony Luke, Shiloh Hill deals with a minor
32:04injury.
32:05Over the weekend, I had a live event match, and I got kicked in the face, and that's why
32:10I have a black eye.
32:12It's one thing competing for Taker when he's competing against the other legends.
32:15It's another thing competing for Taker when he's competing against his wife, because you
32:18know there's family drama there.
32:20I just want to beat my husband.
32:22Ragon Rice is everything in our family.
32:23Come on, man.
32:24Hey, get up there and help your kid.
32:27My kid?
32:28Yeah.
32:29I'm helping your kid, too.
32:34The competition that I have with Michelle, it far exceeds anything else.
32:40This is high-stakes stuff, man.
32:42You can't have any fun around here, y'all.
32:44Get out there and put your match together.
32:47I already did it.
32:48If I don't come out on top for Michelle, if I don't give her that bragging rights at
32:52home, then I'm not doing my job.
32:54I want her to go home and rub that title into Taker's face, laugh about it while he cries
32:58and weaves, and he's super sad about it.
33:01He's part of the reason why I was voted off.
33:02You're gonna see violence.
33:03You're gonna see intensity.
33:04You're gonna see Anthony, and you turn up.
33:06The following contest is scheduled for one fall.
33:23Introducing first, representing T McCool.
33:27Anthony Lou!
33:29Also known to some, JV, as Showtime.
33:36And he certainly lives up to that moniker in and out of the ring.
33:42Michelle McCool's number one pick.
33:46All right.
33:47Yeah!
33:48In the LFG season two draft, Anthony Lou steps forward, and at this point in the game,
33:56the frontrunner, midseason already, for T McCool.
33:59All right, y'all match him.
34:00Go ahead, Little Perkins.
34:02Yep.
34:03Representing Team Undertaker, Shiloh Hill!
34:08Yeah!
34:09I'm sure in the moment, you're gonna get a good look at Shiloh Hill.
34:15Saw him earlier.
34:16He's got a black eye.
34:18His right eye was injured this week, and you see a little bit of a look.
34:24So he's coming in.
34:26He's not gonna let it phase him.
34:27Wait a minute.
34:28Yeah!
34:29Yeah!
34:30You ain't cheating.
34:31You ain't drawing.
34:32There goes Anthony Lou, demanding the official to ring the bell.
34:36Hill's not even back to his feet.
34:38And this is part of that attitude we've seen since season one.
34:42Part of the attitude of why Michelle McCool made him the top draft choice, and certainly
34:48going all the way back, JB, to the draft, Michelle McCool shook up the landscape of LFG.
34:53Well, not only that, she shook up the foundation of Team Booker from season one, as she selected
34:58Panina and Anthony Lou as picks number one in the male and female categories going into
35:04season two, and certainly been effective for Michelle McCool.
35:06Our points leader.
35:08Team McCool is dominating in points, but will it be Hill or Luke that dominates this matchup?
35:14To the legends that they get it right with the top dog, so to speak, here in LFG.
35:23Come on, Charlo.
35:26Well, I think you have to take a look at what happened with Bubba.
35:28And, you know, nobody's going to argue the fact that Zena Sterling is his quote-unquote
35:33meal ticket, but to have to end up with P.J. Ray as his quote-unquote top frontrunner,
35:40probably not going to be Bubba's choice.
35:42But obviously, we've seen the circumstances unfold as they have here, and that's where we're at.
35:51This matchup unfolding right in front of our very eyes, it has been very even between these two.
35:56Probably actually would give the points to Anthony Luke thus far.
36:02That's not good.
36:02Shiloh Hill's back to his feet, trying to swing away, trying to even things out, but there is.
36:07That's the beast.
36:08That's the beast within.
36:10Starting to become unleashed.
36:13Then Shiloh Hill, another big clothesline rocking Luke.
36:17And Hill right now, trying to show his own little bit of show time.
36:20A little shake, rattle, and roll.
36:24Oh, well, that was innovative.
36:27The second time we've seen that from Shiloh Hill, and certainly that offense connects.
36:31Oh, trying to follow it up, but wait a minute.
36:34Look at Luke.
36:35Anthony Luke just ripping at that injured eye.
36:37Oh, we saw that earlier, going right to the advantage spot for.
36:41That's it.
36:42Anthony Luke.
36:43Cut in a corner, and then lights camera action for Showtime.
36:50Here is your winner, Anthony Luke.
36:54Took advantage of where the official was, and the official did not see.
37:01Anthony Luke just put a thumb into the injured eye right here.
37:04Take a look.
37:05Just ripping at the face of Shiloh Hill.
37:08Certainly was effective, and then move we've seen before from Anthony Luke.
37:12It was enough to get the pin, but was this performance enough to get the points?
37:18Anthony Luke, Shiloh Hill, two front runners for a chance at taking this one home this week.
37:26We are going to find out who gets the points from the legends coming up on LFG.
37:36It's all about the top dogs right now.
37:43Legends, who at this point is standing ahead of the pack?
37:48Let's start with the females.
37:50Michelle McCool, please kick us off with your vote for top female.
37:54My vote, Alicia, is for PNasty.
37:57The most progression I saw is out of Panina.
38:01Panina, you get my vote.
38:03My point goes to Serena.
38:07This stings, it stings, but I think my vote is for Panina.
38:10Panina, so that's three votes for Panina.
38:14That means Team McCool gets a point for top female.
38:18All right, let's move along to the top dog of the men here today.
38:25I'm going to start with you, Booker T.
38:28I'm going to tell it just straight like it is, all right?
38:30I'm not going to sugarcoat it.
38:31I'm willing to sacrifice a point in order for you to get better, Harlem.
38:36You can either ride with me or freaking jump off and just go it on your own.
38:43I'm not going to lie.
38:44When he said that, it was embarrassing for him to say that and speak like that
38:47in front of all the other legends and my other co-workers, it's embarrassing.
38:50And I feel like when I'm being held back and I'm being told to do things a certain way,
38:53it's kind of ruining that and just setting me backwards.
38:55I can do things the ABC way you want, but I'm going to do it the Harlem Lewis way.
38:58I'm not going to do it the generic,
38:59create a character way that everybody's asking me to do.
39:02I'm willing to sacrifice. I'm willing to lose.
39:04The point goes to Shiloh.
39:06Michelle McCool, which of the men is the top dog for you today?
39:10Anthony, I've told you a million times, you are.
39:12You check off every single box.
39:14What is the differential for me is that I thought Shiloh went off feeling more.
39:19I hate doing this, but it is what it's right. My vote does go to Shiloh.
39:22Harlem, the wrestling business needs a hard-ass New Yorker.
39:27It's going to come for you. You're going to have to listen a little bit more, okay?
39:32Shiloh, you get my vote.
39:34My vote goes to Shiloh. Good luck, everybody.
39:37It's going to be a dogfight to the end.
39:39That means one point for Team McCool and a point for The Undertaker.
39:45We got four or five guys that could all be winners.
39:49Felt like I was really close last season, so I got to keep working.
39:52I want them to, like, realize that they made a mistake having me not be the winner last season.
39:57When that bell rings, everybody knows the truth.
40:00I mean, how hard do I have to go to show them that I'm the best here?
40:03There's nobody on my level. I've been doing this one year.
40:06One year. This is my show. This is my show.
40:10I'm not letting anybody take it away from me.
40:13Right now, the story is writing itself. That's exactly what I knew was going to happen.
40:18PNASI on top. I'm getting every damn point.
40:20It don't matter if you guys bring me Xena Sterling, the front runner for last season,
40:23or if you put Bayley, big for nothing, home free in front of me.
40:27I don't give a damn. PNASI's here to win it all.
40:33After the deliberations, Harlem Lewis confronts his legendary coach.
40:38Can I talk to you for a second for, like, off camera?
40:40Yeah, yeah.
40:42You wanted to talk to a man-to-man. What was that all about?
40:46This was a private conversation, and it's just something that I needed to get to clear my head
40:50because I was very frustrated, and I've had a really bad history of, like, anger issues,
40:54and I've noticed that if I don't stand on it and speak about it immediately,
40:58I'm going to just crash out.
41:00So I had to pull him aside and just kind of talk to him and understand more what he's saying
41:04and understand exactly what he's looking for from me.
41:06If you follow instruction from me, you're going to kill it every time, all right?
41:11Because you're thinking that you need to do X, Y, Z, but you really don't.
41:16All I need you to do is A, B, and C, okay?
41:19Yeah.
41:20You know, after Harlem wanted to have a little one-on-one session with me,
41:25that tell me, that tell me about Harlem.
41:30Tells me he's an alpha.
41:32Tells me he wants it.
41:34It tells me he wants it really, really bad.
41:37Reminds me of me in a lot of ways.
41:39I always wanted to be the guy at the front of the class.
41:42Trust me, doing it my way, your eyes are going to open and you're going to go,
41:48oh, .
41:49He told me that, you know, he thought this and he thought that,
41:52and I told Harlem, look, I don't need you to think.
41:56I need you to listen.
42:01And the ultimate question,
42:05do you trust me?
42:06You can win this thing.
42:07I know you can.
42:09Just trust me.
42:10Trust me to God.
42:11I appreciate you.
42:12Thank you, seriously.
42:13I got your back.
42:14By any means, I'm going to win this competition.
42:16So, regardless of the points, regardless of, you know,
42:19the speed bumps along the way, it's still what I'm here for.
42:22I'm frustrated right now, but I'm going to win this competition.
42:26Wow, just pouncing and pounding.
42:29Oh, whoa.
42:31Hello.
42:33That'll leave a mark.
42:34Next time on LFG.
42:41You know what I give my hands on you is see you later, alligator.
42:46I want you pissed, and I want you aggressive.
42:48I want to forget how small Danny is.
42:52I need to prove that I can't be looked over anymore.
42:55Light work, bro.
42:56I'm about to go out there and make sure I look like a million bucks like I always do.
42:58Who do you do?
43:10You
