00:00:01Previously on LFG.
00:00:03He's out. He's out, dude.
00:00:05He's out.
00:00:06Shut it down.
00:00:07He's hurt.
00:00:09Today, we will have the Faction face-off.
00:00:12I want to see a package, a video, a vignette.
00:00:16You don't have a problem losing to Xena, right?
00:00:20Unfortunately, I have stated injury to my shoulder.
00:00:23I'm going to be working hard to get back in there.
00:00:25Get the f*** out of here now.
00:00:28Come on, what's up?
00:00:30Bubba, still looking at scores.
00:00:31Booker jumps out to a lead.
00:00:34That's absolutely bulls***.
00:00:38Yeah, baby.
00:00:39That's right.
00:00:41What other coaches did?
00:00:42What other coaches?
00:00:44They can't hate.
00:00:45What is...
00:00:50Talk to him!
00:00:52Talk to him!
00:00:53We're fired up this morning.
00:00:55We're fired up this morning.
00:00:59The legends and future greats are psyching themselves up for the day ahead.
00:01:03And for good reason.
00:01:05The team points are not earned easily.
00:01:08You ready?
00:01:09Oh, oh.
00:01:10You ready?
00:01:12Team Booker T is in the lead with three points, while Mickey follows behind with two, and
00:01:17The Undertaker has one.
00:01:19Team Bubba, however, has yet to find themselves on the board, and his team appears to be struggling
00:01:25as they enter the day's challenges.
00:01:26Why do you look shot?
00:01:28I'm just tired.
00:01:30You're tired?
00:01:31Why?
00:01:32Just the last 48 hours been clicking my nose, that's all.
00:01:34How come?
00:01:35I don't really know.
00:01:38I ended up spraining my wrists when we were working out.
00:01:44There will be a lot of moments where you'll see me cry.
00:01:46There'll be a lot of moments where I'll be vulnerable, because that's not my strongest
00:01:51suit.
00:01:52The tears are me, and I don't need to shy away from that.
00:02:00Tatiana was not having a good day today.
00:02:02You want to have a bad day?
00:02:04Have your bad day on your time.
00:02:07Tatiana, stop trying.
00:02:10Enough with the tears, okay?
00:02:20Welcome to the ultimate proving ground.
00:02:2416 future greats.
00:02:30Four legends.
00:02:32He is the epitome of WrestleMania!
00:02:36I have broke down barriers for women.
00:02:39Be back at the table!
00:02:42Can you dig that sucker?
00:02:45A chance to win an NXT contract.
00:02:49Every legend has a first chapter, and the future starts now.
00:03:00Good morning, boys and girls.
00:03:02All right, good morning.
00:03:03Here we are again.
00:03:04Today, we're going to focus on character, and who your character is in establishing that
00:03:11character, bringing out a piece of who you really are.
00:03:15I don't know what to expect.
00:03:17I don't know who to expect.
00:03:18I mean, it could be anybody.
00:03:20And, you know, I'm constantly preparing myself for any situation.
00:03:24Today, our guest is somebody that has, I'd argue, become pretty damn famous, telling what
00:03:30he believes is the truth.
00:03:32I want you to welcome our special guest, CM Punk.
00:03:43Outlier.
00:03:44Outspoken, but never outdone.
00:03:46As polarizing as CM Punk may be, there is little doubt he is what he says he is.
00:03:52Day in and day out, I have proved that I am the best on this microphone, in that ring,
00:03:59even at commentary.
00:04:00Nobody can touch me.
00:04:03Stepping away in 2014, after a decade absence, Punk made a shocking return a year ago.
00:04:09Looks like hell froze over.
00:04:12I'm home.
00:04:14So as these future greats get to find their voice, who better to lead them than the voice
00:04:21of the voiceless.
00:04:24I feel unfortunate to be here talking to you guys, because without you guys, there is no
00:04:31future business.
00:04:32So my question to you is, do you know who the f*** you are?
00:04:38For me, this is one of those moments where you're like, this cannot be real, because
00:04:45you need to be able to connect with your audience, and CM Punk is one of those people that does
00:04:48that so well.
00:04:50This is a tool.
00:04:52This is a way to connect with the audience.
00:04:54This is a way to tell stories.
00:04:57I have the balls to say things that nobody else has the balls to say.
00:05:03I famously said, when this is in my hand, it is not a microphone.
00:05:07It's a pipe bomb.
00:05:09There's just people who come through the line.
00:05:12They have this ability to evoke so much emotion, and CM Punk is one of them.
00:05:18When he cuts a promo, it doesn't sound like he's out there cutting a promo.
00:05:22He sounds like he's having a conversation with the audience.
00:05:24I try to be as humble as I possibly can, especially in the presence of wrestlers who I feel are
00:05:31greater
00:05:31than me, but I'm so good at this that they call promos pipe bombs now.
00:05:39That's what he's famous for, is the pipe bomb promo.
00:05:44I've been the best ever since day one.
00:05:47No matter how many times I prove it, I'm not on your lovely little collector cups.
00:05:52I'm not on the cover of the program.
00:05:54Oops, I'm breaking the fourth wall.
00:05:59CM Punk's infamous pipe bomb promo showcased his unique ability to weave reality in with
00:06:05his character.
00:06:07And with that in mind, Punk challenges the future greats.
00:06:12You have to always be ready.
00:06:14So I want somebody to take this and cut a promo.
00:06:18I want somebody to tell me who they are.
00:06:20I want somebody to have the balls to get up here.
00:06:22And I know y'all nervous.
00:06:23Oh, look at this.
00:06:24Oh, Xena, go.
00:06:28Ladies first.
00:06:29Nope, nope.
00:06:30Oh, boy.
00:06:35So I got up, but someone beat me to it.
00:06:39It was big boy Jasper.
00:06:41And he snatched a microphone and didn't let me go.
00:06:44But it's okay.
00:06:48It's not fair.
00:06:49To be honest, my whole time here, I felt like the chances that have passed me by, some I
00:06:57wasn't ready for.
00:06:58So every opportunity I get, I have to smash it.
00:07:03I've waited for this moment.
00:07:05When I grew up, I said, I want to get in the ring and I want to look you in
00:07:10the eye and tell
00:07:11you a story.
00:07:13As a kid, I wanted to be you.
00:07:17You dropped the most impressive promo in front of the world.
00:07:23You bled.
00:07:24You sweat.
00:07:25You cried.
00:07:25You showed the WWE universe, the real you.
00:07:28And for what?
00:07:30To leave?
00:07:33To tear this place down afterwards?
00:07:35And to come back?
00:07:37Wow.
00:07:38Second City Saint, huh?
00:07:41I wanted to cheer for you.
00:07:44I wanted to see you, main event, WrestleMania, and go to school the next day and tell all
00:07:49my friends, my guy did it.
00:07:52And you weren't there.
00:07:55And all I want is to get in that ring one day, look you dead in the eye, and for
00:08:02all the
00:08:02things that you have done to me and everyone else in this business, make you bend the knee.
00:08:14Holy s**t.
00:08:17Okay.
00:08:20You ain't even on my team.
00:08:22The best promos don't feel like promos, and they don't sound like promos.
00:08:28They just sound and feel like people who are speaking from the heart.
00:08:33And that's what I heard from Jasper today.
00:08:36You just put yourself on the map.
00:08:39My guy, Jasper Troy, stepping up in that moment, and not just stepping up, it was something
00:08:47that was so organic.
00:08:51I didn't get up there and expect to have acknowledgement from my peers or from the legends.
00:08:57I just wanted to look seeing Punk in the eyes and know when it's me and him or me and
00:09:04whoever
00:09:04in the ring, I'll be ready.
00:09:08He could have cut the worst promo I ever heard, and it wouldn't have mattered.
00:09:13Because let's be honest, nobody's going to succeed at 100% at everything they're doing.
00:09:18And it's unfortunate for them that they're on national television.
00:09:21But this is the game now.
00:09:22The business has changed.
00:09:25Jasper hits a grand slam out of the gate.
00:09:27Now it's time to see if the rest of the future greats can withstand the pressure.
00:09:32Anybody else?
00:09:33Anybody else?
00:09:34I can't wait to get paid for it.
00:09:36Uh-oh.
00:09:37Anybody else?
00:09:38Over a decade ago, I made a promise to a man who had the biggest heart.
00:09:45My grandfather.
00:09:48He taught me how to fight, not just with my fist, but with my mind.
00:09:53And although I lost him over a decade ago, I'm going to fight for every inch of that ring.
00:10:00And it doesn't matter what you f***ing think.
00:10:05I decided to really utilize the negative emotions I had at the beginning of the day.
00:10:11Yeah, it's hot.
00:10:15And instead of just hiding away, I decided to just use those emotions.
00:10:20I see some of you, and I think about the girls in high school who made fun of me for
00:10:25being different.
00:10:27Because I had different clothes, because I had different hobbies, because I didn't want to be in a clique.
00:10:33Lee L'Oreal is not just a dreamer.
00:10:36She's the next big thing here in WWE.
00:10:41Lee?
00:10:44There's something there.
00:10:45We're just going to have to figure out how to drag it out of her, I think.
00:10:52From this point forward, Cutler James is on watch.
00:10:55And anybody, any one of you who threatens my legacy, I'm going to rip your face off.
00:11:03I get heated, I get, you know, emotional, I struggle, I win, I achieve.
00:11:08Like, that's a movie, and that's me.
00:11:12Cutler's promo was a little flat.
00:11:14The longer you sit there, after we throw that gauntlet down, the worse it's going to feel.
00:11:26The future greats continue to try to impress CM Punk and the legends.
00:11:31But there's someone else who feels they deserve the limelight.
00:11:34There you go.
00:11:35Oh, what up?
00:11:35Hello.
00:11:36He's back.
00:11:37Nice hat.
00:11:38I'm back.
00:11:39Yay, you too.
00:11:40Mm-hmm.
00:11:41Good morning.
00:11:42Good morning.
00:11:43I tell the truth.
00:11:47Proof is a powerful thing.
00:11:51Watch next day on the A&E app.
00:11:55I'm the only guy here that has the balls to do anything or say anything to anybody.
00:11:59Everybody here wants to put on this pitch-perfect face.
00:12:03I just want to get healthy and give back as soon as possible, and I want to come show everybody
00:12:07what's up.
00:12:08No hard feelings.
00:12:10But f*** you.
00:12:16What's up, guys?
00:12:18I'm back.
00:12:19Good to see you.
00:12:22How's it going, Cutler?
00:12:24Bonsford?
00:12:25I'm going to get paid, man.
00:12:26I'm going to sit down.
00:12:27I'm going to miss you.
00:12:28Oh, f***.
00:12:28Sorry, Cut.
00:12:30What is this kid doing?
00:12:40You know, it's kind of funny.
00:12:42Ever since I got here, all I keep hearing is, LFG this, LFG that.
00:12:49As if there's some sort of camaraderie here in this whole process.
00:12:55But you want to know what's crazy?
00:12:58Ever since I broke the news about my shoulder, not a single person in this room reached out to me,
00:13:09texted me, and especially you, Team Bubba.
00:13:15I would have expected the most out of y'all, and I get it.
00:13:19Everybody's excited because the number one competitor got eliminated.
00:13:24I mean, Anthony Luke, he was so excited.
00:13:26When I broke the news, it looked like he was about to pull out his bottle of lotion and box
00:13:29of tissues.
00:13:30That's besides the point.
00:13:31Back to Team Bubba.
00:13:33You know, Xena, you are the epitome of stupidity.
00:13:39And I know you probably don't understand what I'm saying to you right now,
00:13:42but I don't have the box of Crayola crayons to draw the picture for you.
00:13:46You know, Tatiana, I see you over there kind of shaking your head, putting your head down.
00:13:49Well, I'm just going to pass you because I don't need you crying for an hour after I say whatever
00:13:53I got to say.
00:13:55Roxanne's boyfriend.
00:13:58Let's be honest, bro.
00:13:59That's all you're ever going to be is Roxanne's boyfriend.
00:14:03Because you bring nothing to the table.
00:14:07And my good old pal, Cutler James.
00:14:11I hate to break the news to you, but if it wasn't for me, you wouldn't even be here, bro.
00:14:16You wouldn't even have this opportunity.
00:14:18So I have three syllables for you, Cutler.
00:14:22Re-place-ment.
00:14:25And as soon as I get back, me and you set them that ring.
00:14:29I am going to do what I did every single day in that Duke wrestling room.
00:14:33And I am going to make you my little bitch.
00:14:41And to everybody here.
00:14:45I may have thought Coach Bubba was a douchebag at some times, but I've learned a lot from Coach Bubba.
00:14:51I understand why Coach Bubba didn't shake my hand.
00:14:54There ain't no family.
00:14:55It's business.
00:14:55And I'm not going to shake a single one of you future's hands.
00:15:02And I'm especially not going to shake any of your legend's hands.
00:15:09Because I'm done.
00:15:11I'm done, and I'm in this for myself.
00:15:14So how do you like them apples?
00:15:15Take care, guys.
00:15:23I had no idea BJ was walking in that room tonight.
00:15:27Once again, wrong place, wrong time.
00:15:33Buddy cut one hell of a promo, didn't he?
00:15:36I don't even care that BJ called me a douche.
00:15:42What I care is that he admitted that he learned something from Coach Bubba.
00:15:49He learned why I wouldn't shake his hand day one.
00:15:57You know, I've got thick skin.
00:15:58You can say whatever you want to me, man.
00:16:00But I should have got up and backhanded his ass for talking about Tatiana and Xena the way that he
00:16:06did.
00:16:07You don't mess with my girls like that.
00:16:09I don't know if I like sexy BJ anymore.
00:16:14Unfortunately, he's hurt.
00:16:15So I can't see if he can back up his words in the ring, you know, and be equally as
00:16:21talented.
00:16:22But to me, a pretty good rule of thumb is don't just throw people under the bus.
00:16:29I want to beat the biggest and the baddest and the best.
00:16:33So I'm going to talk about how they're big and they're bad and they're the best, but they're not CM
00:16:38Punk.
00:16:38So when you beat somebody, you've beaten somebody.
00:16:45After the dust has settled on DJ's promo, the floor is still open for any future greats that want to
00:16:52speak.
00:16:54After a while, there was like nobody getting the mic.
00:16:58I'm like, all right, now's my chance.
00:17:00Anybody else?
00:17:09You're going to talk or you're going to lollygag?
00:17:12Say something.
00:17:13Sell me a ticket.
00:17:14Do something.
00:17:15Agreed.
00:17:18I don't appreciate the disrespect, though, because I did stand up.
00:17:21Just cut your promo.
00:17:22This is the promo right here.
00:17:24So I want you to listen to what I have to say.
00:17:29Bubba decides to be agitated for whatever reason.
00:17:35Felt like he was being a little rude and unnecessarily aggressive.
00:17:39But when I feel disrespected, I say something about it.
00:17:44This actually is familiar.
00:17:48When I was training for the Olympics, people discredited me because they thought I was a happy-go-lucky girl.
00:17:55Well, guess what?
00:17:55But I am a happy-go-lucky girl, and I know how to whoop-butt doing it.
00:18:00I have had anger problems when I was a kid.
00:18:04Those anger problems got me to where I am today, an Olympic gold medalist.
00:18:10I have been at the biggest arenas in the entire world.
00:18:15I am going to make sure that I am going to make sure that I become an Olympic gold medalist.
00:18:21I was going to make sure that nobody was going to take that opportunity away from me.
00:18:26It doesn't matter if they boo you or they cheer you.
00:18:31As long as I hear the noise, that's all I want, is the noise.
00:18:48I was blown away.
00:18:50I didn't have to tell Tyra.
00:18:52Tyra got up on her own.
00:18:54That kind of confidence, it stands out.
00:19:00She could be vulnerable, but also that she is a legitimate killer.
00:19:08Although Tyra Maysteel didn't need any encouragement to do her promo,
00:19:13one future great takes it upon himself to encourage his peers.
00:19:35Jasper, just trying to be a bully at this point, bro.
00:19:38First of all, I ain't never seen you act like that, bro.
00:19:40I get it the first time.
00:19:42Chris, go.
00:19:42Go talk.
00:19:44No, bro.
00:19:45Like, I don't feel it.
00:19:46Chris, go, bro.
00:19:48Chris, go, bro.
00:19:49Chris, you really not going to go?
00:19:51Chris, nobody from your team went.
00:19:52You got to go.
00:19:53What are you on today?
00:19:55He's scared.
00:19:57That's what it is.
00:19:58He's scared.
00:20:07If Chris is going to carry himself with this aura,
00:20:11I feel like there's money on the floor.
00:20:15And you chose not to walk to it.
00:20:17You chose not to pick it up.
00:20:18You chose not to attempt.
00:20:25I just want to let you know probably what we notice more than anything else.
00:20:31It's not so much the people who are taking the opportunity.
00:20:35It's the people that are not taking the opportunity.
00:20:39Coming up on LFG, the future greats square off in the day's matches.
00:20:46It's 316, so what better way to celebrate Stone Cold Steve Austin Day than a Texas-sized countdown?
00:20:53Watch a new WWE's Greatest Moments tonight at 10.
00:20:59I just want to let you know probably what we notice more than anything else.
00:21:05It's not so much the people who are taking the opportunity.
00:21:09It's the people that are not taking the opportunity.
00:21:13Bubba was the one who said, like, we're taking note of who didn't take the opportunity.
00:21:16I was like, shoot, was that like some sort of like test or something?
00:21:20Shoot, I'm not like afraid to do it.
00:21:22Like if I knew it was like a test, I would do it.
00:21:23But I guess I didn't really recognize that in time, so I was pretty disappointed about that.
00:21:29So pissed off at Shiloh.
00:21:31Because Shiloh, he has this thing in him.
00:21:35He is different, and he can be captivating when he cuts a promo.
00:21:40He, for whatever reason, just didn't get up.
00:21:45With no more future greats willing to stand up, the promo session is over.
00:21:50This is where I do not envy y'all, right?
00:21:53Because failure is going to be your biggest teacher, okay?
00:21:58So if you sat down and you didn't get up, that's on you.
00:22:04This is what y'all signed up for.
00:22:07So grab it by the throat, okay?
00:22:13I think if I learned anything from today, it's that I myself need to step up, and my team needs
00:22:19to step up.
00:22:20I'm disappointed in myself.
00:22:21I'm disappointed in my three other teammates.
00:22:23I know Mickey's disappointed in us for not stepping up and taking that opportunity.
00:22:28Before coaches deliberate the matches, Mickey pulls her team aside.
00:22:34Why didn't you guys stand up?
00:22:36When they were doing promos, you had a golden opportunity there.
00:22:38What happened?
00:22:40I don't know who I am.
00:22:42It was hard to put out and speak and have it be believable when you don't know who you are
00:22:47yourself.
00:22:49In wrestling, you have to know who you are and project that to the audience, but if I don't know
00:22:53who I am, then how are they going to relate to me?
00:22:56How are they going to latch on to this?
00:22:57I know it's hard.
00:22:58It's hard to figure that out.
00:23:00But you were saying a lot on the floor, and then...
00:23:02I mean, I usually have a lot to talk about, but everybody was kind of going to a deep place.
00:23:07Right.
00:23:08I wasn't really...
00:23:09Like, I wasn't trying to go up there and just fake a trauma dog.
00:23:13I'm not the type to trauma dog.
00:23:16I'm not the type to just boo-hoo.
00:23:18That just kind of got in my head, and I just felt in my gut, like, that's not really the
00:23:22place for me.
00:23:23I don't do that.
00:23:24There's different types of promos, right?
00:23:25There's so many different types of promos.
00:23:27You could have just went up there and been yourself.
00:23:28I am Mickie James.
00:23:32I am the way God intended me to be, and I am proud of it.
00:23:37Well, I'm going to go up there and fight for you guys, but you didn't do me any favors.
00:23:42The legends, along with CM Punk, gather separately to decide who will be in today's matches.
00:23:50Okay, CM Punk, since you are our guest today, you're going to be awarding one point for best overall male
00:23:57and one point for best overall female.
00:24:00Right now, we're going to pick the four matches.
00:24:04Punk, just be honest.
00:24:05Just be honest.
00:24:05That's all I need you to do.
00:24:06That's all I ever have.
00:24:07Just be honest.
00:24:08So you think Jasper should be in a match?
00:24:11Jasper, look here.
00:24:12He's a monster, right?
00:24:13And his promo was right on the money.
00:24:16It's interesting.
00:24:18Your guy, Chris Island, had a lot to say to Jasper.
00:24:24But he never stood up?
00:24:26He was talking from his butt.
00:24:27He was talking, just sitting down, just...
00:24:29Yeah, I mean, what's up on that?
00:24:31Chris has a baby face.
00:24:33But I was watching him, and I go, like, he might be a heel, naturally.
00:24:39I'd like to see Chris, we've only seen him as a baby face, I'd like to see him as a
00:24:42heel.
00:24:43And I'll do you one even better, since none of my kids stood up.
00:24:46What if we put Serena on the floor as his manager?
00:24:50You can do whatever the hell you want to do, but I just know one thing.
00:24:53Jasper Troy is going to go in there, he's going to take care of his work, and he's going to
00:24:57show the people.
00:24:58He's going to show the judge.
00:25:00I felt that was a bit of a slap in the face.
00:25:05There's something special about a manager.
00:25:08Your role is so special, because now it's not just two guys out there wrestling.
00:25:14Look at Heenan, grabs the leg of the warrior!
00:25:17Now there's this added element that makes it so different than everyone else.
00:25:23I would like to see Tyra.
00:25:26I'd like for her to start as the baby face that everybody thinks she is,
00:25:31and through the course of the match, flip into a heel.
00:25:35She took you on this ride in the promo.
00:25:38I want to see if she can do it in the ring.
00:25:39Do you think that would work against Danny?
00:25:44Let's go.
00:25:45You offering up my folks?
00:25:46So, yeah, Tyra and Danny.
00:25:49I thought Tatiana did really well today.
00:25:55I mean, we're talking real tears, real emotion.
00:25:58She made me feel, out of all of them, I felt hers.
00:26:02I mean, Lee did a hell of a job as well.
00:26:04You got to give Lee a lot of credit, as well as, you know,
00:26:08last time we saw Lee in the ring, she did a pretty good job.
00:26:10The last time we saw Tatiana in the ring, yeah, she did all right.
00:26:15That was her first match.
00:26:18Tatiana's first match was against Lee.
00:26:20Lee did a better job because this business is about being a general.
00:26:25Am I right or wrong?
00:26:26This business is about being able to go out there
00:26:29and lead your troops into battle.
00:26:31I always thought it was about selling tickets,
00:26:33but, hey, what do I know?
00:26:34That, too, that, too.
00:26:37Lee and Tatiana.
00:26:39Lee did not lead Tatiana.
00:26:41I'll tell you what, I'll tell you what, I'll tell you what.
00:26:42Let's just run it back.
00:26:44Done.
00:26:44Let's just run it back.
00:26:45What about that?
00:26:46Let's just run it back.
00:26:47Done.
00:26:48The people who get to work matches are the ones who stood up.
00:26:52They should be rewarding.
00:26:53Yeah, I think that's nice.
00:26:54I think so.
00:26:55How about Cutler?
00:26:57My advice to Cutler was,
00:26:59and you guys can tell me if you agree or not,
00:27:01as far as a wrestling promo is concerned,
00:27:04I thought he took a small baby step forward.
00:27:06Again, it's not about the content.
00:27:08Like, I could critique the shit out of it,
00:27:09but it wasn't about the content.
00:27:11It was just about standing up.
00:27:13Yep, you got to reward that.
00:27:15I'm in the same boat with Shiloh.
00:27:18I don't know if he's a heel or a baby face.
00:27:20Can I put Shiloh in there with your guy?
00:27:23I think that would be a good matchup.
00:27:25I'd like to see it.
00:27:26Beat.
00:27:27Shiloh and Cutler.
00:27:28Yep, Shiloh and Cutler.
00:27:29Book it!
00:27:30Book it!
00:27:32Oh, yeah!
00:27:34Scream out, book it!
00:27:35Book it!
00:27:38With Punk being the sole decision-maker
00:27:40on who receives points,
00:27:42all the legends take it upon themselves
00:27:44to coach up the future greats before their matches.
00:27:48I'm looking for more out of you today.
00:27:50All right?
00:27:50I'm going to be looking for a whole lot more out of you today.
00:27:53Booker put a lot on me.
00:27:54For starters,
00:27:55he wanted to see me, you know,
00:27:58step up and lead.
00:27:59Because guess what?
00:27:59I'm the heel now,
00:28:00and I've never worked to you.
00:28:01I've never even practiced to you.
00:28:03I need you guys to think about simplifying.
00:28:05It doesn't matter who's watching.
00:28:08The only thing that matters is,
00:28:10am I going to go out here and give my all?
00:28:12I know it sounds really basic and simple.
00:28:15We're telling the story,
00:28:16like this was a friendly, competitive match,
00:28:19and that's where he shortcuts you.
00:28:21We are looking for Baby Baby to start.
00:28:24There's something that you do
00:28:26where she turns mid-match.
00:28:28Want to see a vicious side from you.
00:28:30See if you can be a heel.
00:28:32And I'm like, oh, wait, really?
00:28:35I actually like working heel.
00:28:37Communicating.
00:28:37It's the most important thing
00:28:39about going out here and getting this right, all right?
00:28:42Boom, beautiful work.
00:28:43They wanted to see our roles reversed.
00:28:46Now I'm Baby Face, and she's a heel.
00:28:49And this is a role that I'm not very comfortable in.
00:28:52I didn't go through the steps I'm used to,
00:28:55and things were last minute and spontaneous.
00:28:59I let my nerves get the best of me.
00:29:01And nothing, fine.
00:29:03Maybe pick her up, give her a body slam, cover.
00:29:06When you blow up in your lungs,
00:29:07it's because you're not in shape.
00:29:08You're both in phenomenal shape.
00:29:10You can blow up here in an instant
00:29:12because you're stressed out
00:29:13or you let the anxiety get to you.
00:29:14That's crazy.
00:29:15I want that to come out of you to him
00:29:18during the course of this match.
00:29:19Chuck, all right?
00:29:20Go.
00:29:21And the dead man's risen.
00:29:24Oh, my God.
00:29:26Incredible moment.
00:29:27When they're rocking and rolling,
00:29:28that's more when you're just, like, reacting.
00:29:30You see him showboating.
00:29:33You showboat with him.
00:29:34That's right, baby.
00:29:36The first match of the evening,
00:29:38Chris Island versus Jasper Troy.
00:29:41Me and Jasper, it's real.
00:29:44I really don't like bro.
00:29:45Like, I really don't like him.
00:29:48But that's why we work so well.
00:29:53Yeah.
00:29:55Oh, it is time to get the action started
00:29:58here on Legends and Future Greats.
00:30:01Coming, coming, coming along.
00:30:04The following concept is scheduled for one call.
00:30:08Introducing first, representing Team Mickey James,
00:30:14accompanied by Serena Lincoln
00:30:16from Buckerville, California,
00:30:20waved in at 245 pounds,
00:30:24Brent Island.
00:30:27JB, Jeremy, Borash, Island,
00:30:29not alone here tonight.
00:30:31No, he certainly isn't.
00:30:32This is the idea of the brainchild of Mickey James
00:30:34stepping into the ring,
00:30:34having Serena Linton representing
00:30:37and kind of sidekicking Chris Island
00:30:39in this matchup here on Legends and Future Greats.
00:30:44and his opponent representing Team Bunker T
00:30:50from Hunkman, Texas,
00:30:53waved in at 330 pounds,
00:30:57Jasper Troy!
00:31:01Troy is ready to battle.
00:31:05Move, move, move, Serena, move, Serena.
00:31:08Whoa!
00:31:09That's close to it.
00:31:10No.
00:31:11Never get that close to it.
00:31:12Well, I want to say this.
00:31:13Mickey not impressed early on in this matchup,
00:31:15and, I mean,
00:31:16the bell hasn't even rung yet, JB.
00:31:18Well, look at the proud pop-up, Booker T.
00:31:22That's my dog right there.
00:31:24Huh?
00:31:24Hoo, hoo, hoo!
00:31:26That's my dog!
00:31:28All right.
00:31:29Here comes Booker T's meal ticket.
00:31:31Nah, he's a hell of a talent.
00:31:33He's a hell of a talent.
00:31:34Look at him.
00:31:35Quick, fast,
00:31:36a big man.
00:31:40There's no question Booker T feels like he's at a,
00:31:43well, a point that he is the man to beat right now
00:31:45in this competition amongst the legends
00:31:47with Jasper Troy.
00:31:49See that?
00:31:49In this match with Chris Island.
00:31:52He's spiked out of ass.
00:31:55I get what Mickey James is looking at
00:31:56with Chris Island and Linton.
00:31:58Be a team, be together.
00:32:00Like you and me, JB.
00:32:03Big man look pretty good, huh?
00:32:05He does.
00:32:06Once he got the bell ring, huh?
00:32:07He's looking pretty good, huh?
00:32:09I don't want to see my big man, though,
00:32:10with a side headlock on the back.
00:32:11Come on, he's got to be a babyface for a second.
00:32:14I'm here, man.
00:32:14I'm just saying, I'm just saying.
00:32:16What are we thinking here?
00:32:17He's different.
00:32:19JB, you're a legend.
00:32:20What do you think of the philosophy difference
00:32:21between Booker and The Undertaker?
00:32:23Well, two different viewpoints in some ways.
00:32:25Obviously, Undertaker is that tried and true old school,
00:32:27the gospel of this industry.
00:32:29Undertaker knows it better than anyone,
00:32:31whereas Booker T takes on a bit of a different approach
00:32:35to teaching his students.
00:32:36That's 20 years at Reality of Wrestling,
00:32:38of course, his own wrestling school.
00:32:40And certainly, we're seeing right now,
00:32:42Booker T is the man to beat right now
00:32:44in Legends and Future Greats,
00:32:45amongst the legends with his team.
00:32:48Hey, wait a minute.
00:32:49That's a cheap shot by Island.
00:32:52I think Lytton grabbed the leg of Jasper Troy.
00:32:54The official didn't see it, though.
00:32:56Troy's Achilles heel.
00:32:58Troy's Achilles.
00:32:59Went for the Achilles.
00:33:00I'm not going to speculate on that,
00:33:02but I will speculate that Chris Island knows
00:33:04he is not going to overpower Jasper Troy,
00:33:07and this is the strategy he needs to implement.
00:33:09And it's the strategy that Mickie James put forth,
00:33:12looking to see a different side of Chris Island
00:33:14in this competition.
00:33:20Get this shit, Chris.
00:33:28Troy trying to...
00:33:30What?
00:33:31What the f*** with your ankle?
00:33:32That's impressive.
00:33:34He said, screw that ankle.
00:33:35I don't need it.
00:33:36It's fine.
00:33:36He might have just lost some points, JB,
00:33:38but again, it's not about wins and losses.
00:33:40Teach your dog got a sound.
00:33:42Your dog forgot that he got his ankle clear.
00:33:45In the midst of that incredibly impressive maneuver,
00:33:47yeah, a little bit of an issue there from the legends.
00:33:50Does he play impossible?
00:33:56Oh, big splash.
00:33:59Look, man.
00:34:01Now we're back to it.
00:34:02Now we're...
00:34:04That's a hell of a sale.
00:34:06I mean, adrenaline will make a man do some crazy things, though, JB.
00:34:09We know that.
00:34:10But does he have enough of the leg left?
00:34:11Yes, he certainly did.
00:34:13Massive chokeslam from Jasper Troy.
00:34:20Here is your winner, Jasper Troy!
00:34:27Well, Booker does like what he is seeing at this very moment
00:34:31as LFG continues to roll on here tonight.
00:34:38Oh, yes, man.
00:34:39Shuck it, duck it, quick, quick!
00:34:41Uh-oh.
00:34:42Booker T, I'm coming to you first for the feedback, sir.
00:34:46I'm going to keep it real.
00:34:47Booker put a lot on me with this match.
00:34:49He really sat me down and he said,
00:34:50Chris, there are things I seriously need to see out of you.
00:34:54Chris, that's the best I've seen you do in the ring
00:34:59since we started this thing.
00:35:01I haven't been that nervous in a couple months, to be real,
00:35:05but, you know, pressure make diamonds.
00:35:08They took two to tango.
00:35:10Jasper, I can't say enough about you.
00:35:12He's a monster.
00:35:13Hell of a job.
00:35:14Hell of a job.
00:35:16That's the Undertaker.
00:35:16Big man, you got presence either way you go.
00:35:19You garner attention.
00:35:21Preach.
00:35:22You very well may be a heel.
00:35:25Excellent job.
00:35:27Serena, I'm just curious.
00:35:28What made you think it was okay to be so close to him
00:35:31and kind of stand up to him?
00:35:33I think just backing up Chris,
00:35:36showing that I'm, like, protecting him as his manager.
00:35:39Okay.
00:35:40We'll go over why that's probably
00:35:42in the not the right mindset for you in that moment in time.
00:35:46Especially when you're standing next to a man that size.
00:35:51Watching WWE as a fan,
00:35:52you don't realize how much psychology goes into being a manager.
00:35:56But just like anything else,
00:35:58like, you go out, you try, you fail,
00:35:59you learn, and you become better.
00:36:04I think at this level,
00:36:05what everyone's looking for is basics.
00:36:09Basics done well.
00:36:10All three of you worked hard.
00:36:12I can't fault you for anything.
00:36:14That's all I want to see at this point.
00:36:16Good job, you guys.
00:36:20You don't understand.
00:36:20I've been waiting weeks for this.
00:36:22Booker tore me down every week.
00:36:23It wasn't even just week one.
00:36:24It wasn't even just my first match.
00:36:26He's torn me down after every match.
00:36:27At a certain point, he just stopped looking at me.
00:36:29Stopped talking to me.
00:36:30And now he had to say,
00:36:32you know what, Chris, I see it.
00:36:33I even got Taker to say I could be a heel.
00:36:35You know what that means?
00:36:36That means everything.
00:36:37They finally see me.
00:36:39The next match is Danny Sikelsky versus Tyra Mae Steele.
00:36:49The following contest is scheduled for one fall.
00:36:54Here's introducing Chris, representing Team Undertaker.
00:37:01From Houston, Texas, Tyra Mae Steele.
00:37:07Well, the student of The Undertaker, Tyra Mae Steele.
00:37:10The Undertaker was very clear on what he wanted to see from Tyra Mae Steele in this matchup.
00:37:15Trying to get a little range, a little versatility.
00:37:17It's up to her now to implement the advice of the dead man.
00:37:23And her opponent, representing Team Mickey James.
00:37:30From Stanford, Connecticut, Danny Sikelsky.
00:37:36Quite the spitfire of Team Mickey, the former Big Ten and NFL cheerleader.
00:37:41Danny Sikelsky brings a presence to the ring that just makes you want to smile.
00:37:44She obviously has a great personality in the ring.
00:37:48And what she can get done in the ring in a very short time has impressed everyone,
00:37:52including her mentor, Mickey James.
00:37:56Well, as these two square up, baby.
00:37:59And I think Danny really wants to try and grapple with a former gold medalist.
00:38:03She took home the gold in Tokyo Games.
00:38:05Can Tyra Mae Steele take home gold here in WWE?
00:38:09Well, time will tell.
00:38:11And, of course, she's got quite the coach behind her.
00:38:13Someone who won a lot of gold in his Hall of Fame career.
00:38:15The Undertaker.
00:38:17Whoa!
00:38:23Steele in control.
00:38:25Whoa!
00:38:27Okay!
00:38:29Okay!
00:38:32She's having fun, man.
00:38:33Look at that.
00:38:34Could you imagine The Undertaker doing jumping jacks?
00:38:37Mid-match, JB?
00:38:38Well, Tyra Mae Steele is carrying out the battle plan of The Undertaker.
00:38:43Come on out and show him one side and see what happens after if you switch that up.
00:38:47And Tyra Mae Steele with those jumping jacks.
00:38:50Tried to out-cheer Danny Sikowsky.
00:38:52Look, I was getting ready to question if Steele was being a little bit too confident.
00:38:56Right now, Danny is right back in this matchup.
00:38:58And, again, it's not about who wins.
00:39:00It's about implementing the knowledge put forth by your legend, the Hall of Fame legend like
00:39:06The Undertaker and, of course, Mickey James throwing knowledge right and left at Danny
00:39:10Sikowsky, who was taken to this very quickly and successfully.
00:39:17Got it, girl.
00:39:19Got it, girl.
00:39:21Oh, no, she didn't.
00:39:23No, she didn't do that.
00:39:25Well, things are picking up.
00:39:26Who's going to step up on LFG?
00:39:30Fans really got behind mankind.
00:39:33Rock becomes the bad guy.
00:39:35That match got carried away in a way that I hope no other match ever does.
00:39:39WWE Rivals.
00:39:40New episode next.
00:39:41WWE Superstar Sunday.
00:39:43Only on A&E.
00:39:44Watch.
00:39:44For imprint.
00:39:45For certain.
00:39:46Back on Legends of Future Grace.
00:39:48It's been a human chess match.
00:39:50Including The Undertaker's Olympian, Tyra Mae Steele, and Danny Sikowsky of Team Mickey.
00:39:59And that was the moment Undertaker gave Tyra some specific instruction.
00:40:04Brought him to see a different side of her.
00:40:06Come on, get on her.
00:40:08Get on her.
00:40:10Lose that bubbly attitude and turn up the volume on a more aggressive side.
00:40:15That's what we're seeing right now from Tyra Mae Steele.
00:40:17That sneaky steal.
00:40:19And when you have the advantage, JB, you've got to put your foot on the gas into the cover and
00:40:23a kick out.
00:40:24Was it effective? Is that what The Undertaker was looking for from Tyra Mae Steele?
00:40:28A lot of talking right now from the Olympic gold medalist Tyra Mae Steele.
00:40:35Come on.
00:40:37Do something.
00:40:39JB, this is valuable recovery time.
00:40:41Well, not quite sticking to the game plan that The Undertaker put forth for Tyra Mae Steele.
00:40:45Looking for the big slam.
00:40:47Countered.
00:40:48Fire, Danny. Fire.
00:40:50Oh, and JB, she is doing just that.
00:40:53See Mickey right now back into this matchup.
00:40:56Well, that change in attitude was meant to ignite a certain side of Danny Sikielski as well.
00:41:01And right now, we're seeing that aggression.
00:41:02But, wow, Tyra Mae Steele delivery.
00:41:05Get on her.
00:41:06Get on her.
00:41:08Get on her.
00:41:10Calm down, Tay.
00:41:12Calm down.
00:41:13No coaching.
00:41:14I'm not coaching.
00:41:15I'm being a fan.
00:41:17No coaching.
00:41:18I'm a fan.
00:41:20That's the thing I love about LFG.
00:41:21We're getting to see a front row seat to the minds being put forth.
00:41:25These legends have so much experience in the industry.
00:41:28And to see their pupils, their star students, carrying out or maybe not carrying out the advice is so fascinating
00:41:35to watch.
00:41:35Danny's trying to do something her Titans didn't do much of this year.
00:41:38And that is win.
00:41:39That fire you heard Mickie James talking about.
00:41:42You think about executing a game plan.
00:41:44It looks like Team Mickie's pupil is picking up where Mickie James left off in their coaching sessions.
00:41:51This, of course, being a rematch from the very first episode of LFG.
00:41:56And it's so fun to watch the progression, the journey that these two athletes are on.
00:42:00Oh, no.
00:42:03Cover.
00:42:04Tight.
00:42:05There you go.
00:42:09Here is your winner, Tyra Mae Steele.
00:42:15But Steele won with a handful of tights.
00:42:18And was that enough to earn a point for Team Undertaker?
00:42:21CM Punk making the decisions tonight.
00:42:24We are going to find out later on here on LFG.
00:42:29Danny, Tyra Mae, excellent job, ladies.
00:42:33Mickie James.
00:42:34Oh, me first.
00:42:35I mean, were you the one that told Danny to do those jumping jacks mid-match?
00:42:38I did not.
00:42:39I did not.
00:42:40But I wish I had.
00:42:41But it was good instinct to do that.
00:42:43I could see that you were not comfortable being a heel.
00:42:47You spent way too much time showboating before you actually were in control.
00:42:51Once you know she's down and she's not getting back up, now you can be cocky.
00:42:58Right out of the gate, I knew who and what you were.
00:43:04Danny, if I didn't know you were a cheerleader prior to this, watching your entrance, I would
00:43:09have been like, that girl's a cheerleader.
00:43:12Tyra, you obviously come out with the gold medal.
00:43:14So I get it.
00:43:15I know who you are.
00:43:17When we have an athlete that is so specialized, like you are, you come into this world and
00:43:23you think in terms of, I need to be a pro wrestler.
00:43:27So I need to chop people because I saw it on TV.
00:43:31We want you to be the Olympic gold medalist.
00:43:38The thing that I wanted to see most, I wanted to see a story told.
00:43:41You guys did that.
00:43:43You got a little ahead of yourself with the frustration.
00:43:46We got some things to work on, but well done.
00:43:48Thank you, Legends, for your feedback.
00:43:58When I first got here, I was told, forget everything you know, learn what we know.
00:44:03And now I have to literally, after already climbing that mountain, I have to climb another
00:44:10mountain to remember who I am and why I'm here.
00:44:13Tyra and I are in the same boat of we're so hard on ourselves and that's never going to
00:44:17change.
00:44:18So although, relatively speaking, we might have had a great match tonight, I know there's
00:44:22always something to work on.
00:44:23The next match, Tatiana Dumas versus Lee L'Rell.
00:44:283, 2, 1.
00:44:34The following contest is scheduled for one fall.
00:44:38Introducing first, we're beginning, team, the third team, from Raleigh, North Carolina,
00:44:46Lee L'Rell.
00:44:54I hope she doesn't blow up mentally.
00:44:58She was very stressed out before she came out here today.
00:45:02Which might seem odd to some, JB, because Lee was just chosen as a standout a few weeks
00:45:08ago here on LFG.
00:45:09No question about it.
00:45:10As a member of Team Booker, she's got to be on her game both mentally and physically.
00:45:14You can bet the tensions are at a fever pitch.
00:45:19And her opponent, representing Team Bubba Ray, from Sydney, Australia, Tatiana Dumas.
00:45:33No strangers to one another in or out of the ring.
00:45:39Sell your arm.
00:45:42What's going on with the arm?
00:45:45She's a little dinged up, so let's see how it plays out.
00:45:50As we've seen these stories unfold, it is about telling a story in that ring.
00:45:54And that's what the Legends are looking for in this matchup.
00:45:5910-30.
00:46:00Uh-oh.
00:46:01Uh-oh.
00:46:03Uh-oh, baby.
00:46:05Here we go, JB.
00:46:07Eyes watching this matchup.
00:46:09Who's the biggest critic, honestly, up on that stage right now out of the Legends?
00:46:13Well, it's hard to pick.
00:46:14Obviously, very opinionated from top to bottom all four of our Legends here on LFG.
00:46:18But throw in the very opinionated CM Punk as well.
00:46:23And you have your work cut out for you if you're stepping into the ring on this show.
00:46:27Tatiana, a former gladiator, yes, is a little bit banged up.
00:46:31There will be a bullseye on her wrist in this matchup, you would assume.
00:46:35Nice back elbow.
00:46:37Stinging back elbow.
00:46:39And now here is Lee Laurel focusing right on that injured left hand of Tatiana.
00:46:45And there has been an odd, an odd tension in the air throughout this entire matchup, JB.
00:46:52I don't know if it's just me.
00:46:53I think it's been the entire program with CM Punk here as a cover.
00:46:57CM Punk set the tone from the moment he stepped foot and was introduced on this program today
00:47:02by the Heartbreak Kid, Shawn Michaels.
00:47:05And wow, what we saw out of Jasper Troy.
00:47:07What we saw out of all the Legends that stepped up and did their talking on the mic.
00:47:12Now it's time to show it in the ring.
00:47:15I think so from earlier today witnessing her and talking to her that day,
00:47:21she's obviously to me, she's having a bad day.
00:47:24And I think it's translating in the ring.
00:47:30That bad day may be getting worse.
00:47:32Inside cradle, shoulders down, JB.
00:47:36Tatiana picks up the win.
00:47:40Tell me how many bad days you have had on the road, personally or professionally, and then had to work
00:47:46in a main event.
00:47:47Benny.
00:47:48A lot on the mind of our athletes, but was that enough to impress CM Punk?
00:47:52He's awarding the points tonight.
00:47:54Big decision still looming right here on LFG.
00:48:00Ladies, hard-fought match.
00:48:02Going to come to the Legends for feedback.
00:48:04I'm going to start with you, our guest, Mr. CM Punk.
00:48:09Lee, you feel very reserved to me.
00:48:12I feel like there's something in there, and I feel like you're being too shy, and you're not letting it
00:48:20out.
00:48:21Lots of work to do.
00:48:22Okay, ladies, but you worked hard.
00:48:25Mickie James?
00:48:27Tatiana, you really shined today, actually.
00:48:29I saw more from you out of this match than certainly your last match.
00:48:33I can tell that you're improving each time you go out there.
00:48:36It was a little rushed, and so it got a little sloppy, and we couldn't really define exactly what you
00:48:41were trying to do.
00:48:42But you guys really, really worked your butts off.
00:48:44And Bubba Ray, what are your thoughts on the match?
00:48:48Isn't it nice to have all of these baby faces up here blowing smoke up your ass?
00:48:53Now for the truth.
00:48:56Because you both came here today in the wrong frame of mind is why you were not able to execute
00:49:03in that ring today.
00:49:05You have been crying since the minute you walked in here today.
00:49:09Your head has been someplace else, and it has been showing all over your face.
00:49:13I saw the frustration on your face when Booker was going over the match with you, as if you were
00:49:19telling me, shut the f**k up, Booker.
00:49:22The moral of today's story, whatever happens personally, you have to leave behind.
00:49:29Thank you, legends.
00:49:30Tatiana, Lee, thank you.
00:49:33Well said.
00:49:34Well said.
00:49:36Go get him some tissues.
00:49:41Trying to get rid of my shyness and my lack of confidence.
00:49:49I've always grown up reserved, so it's a little hard to get me out of my shell, but I think
00:49:55this process is going to get me there eventually.
00:49:58And shoot, like, if that means I have to be vulnerable and break down and build back up every single
00:50:05time, I'm going to do it, so.
00:50:10I came in just, again, bringing my own s**t to the ring.
00:50:15Unfortunately, tried to stop it before we got out there.
00:50:18Lee was a little bit anxious and nervous.
00:50:20I just tried to play the best baby face I could be for the first time ever.
00:50:24And, look, we can't make everyone happy.
00:50:28While Lee and Tatiana come to terms with their performance, Cutler James and Shiloh Hill prepare for their match.
00:50:36To get another opportunity to wrestle on the show feels like a good compliment, because it means that he sees
00:50:41me as, like, a viable option to get a point.
00:50:43We're out there for a couple minutes, and in those couple minutes, we have to captivate people.
00:50:48We're going to make it feel as real as possible.
00:50:55Oh, get ready.
00:50:57It's our fourth and final match on LFG.
00:51:00The following contest is scheduled for one fall.
00:51:04Introducing first, representing Team Undertaker.
00:51:10From Northfield, New Hampshire, weighing in at 245 pounds, Shiloh Hill.
00:51:20The last time we saw Hill in singles action, maybe we were given quite the scare.
00:51:25Well, he was knocked out cold, needed medical attention.
00:51:28Obviously, a tough situation there, but was able to bounce back last week as a part of Team Undertaker and
00:51:33win his team a point.
00:51:36Shiloh Hill set to do battle.
00:51:44And his opponent, representing Team Bubba Ray, from Ellentown, Pennsylvania, weighing in at 255 pounds, Cutler James.
00:52:02Big opportunity, JB.
00:52:04Walk us through this second chance for James.
00:52:06Well, when BJ Ray went down to injury, it was an opportunity put forth by Bubba.
00:52:11A spot needed to be filled, and Cutler James won that opportunity.
00:52:16Now, can he take that momentum, harlay it into a big win for his team as part of Team Bubba
00:52:23Ray.
00:52:24Important to note, too, this is Cutler's first singles match here on LFG here tonight against Hill.
00:52:31Really looking forward to this matchup.
00:52:33Stay tall.
00:52:34Stay tall.
00:52:35Yeah.
00:52:36Well, and the question for Hill is, can he step up tonight?
00:52:40Well, the question also for Cutler James, can he impress as well?
00:52:44You know, when you're replacing somebody as outlandish and crazy as BJ Ray, you have to bring something different to
00:52:49the table.
00:52:49Can he do that?
00:52:50That was a nice headlock take, are you?
00:52:52It's beautiful.
00:52:53It's flexible.
00:52:54Yes.
00:52:55Well, CM Punk wanted to see everybody on the microphone get that opportunity and take that opportunity.
00:53:00CM Punk did not hear anything out of Shiloh Hill.
00:53:05Good switch.
00:53:06Good transition.
00:53:07Nice.
00:53:08Tackle.
00:53:08As far as this goes, it's back to basics, JB, in the center of the ring.
00:53:12The foundation being built for the men and the women here on LFG.
00:53:17He's a baby face here.
00:53:18Huh?
00:53:19He's a baby.
00:53:19He's a baby.
00:53:20They're both baby faces right now.
00:53:21Okay, okay, okay.
00:53:24As you can see, some sportsmanship between the two, both with the same mindset.
00:53:28But you got to start wondering, maybe this is what Booker's thinking.
00:53:31Who is going to crank up the aggression in this matchup?
00:53:34Who is going to implement the knowledge put forth by these legends in this matchup between future grades?
00:53:40Great shoulder block there by Cutler James.
00:53:42Going to work now on Shiloh Hill.
00:53:44Grab that arm, kid.
00:53:48No one has really separated themselves at this point.
00:53:51The coaches, after wondering who will, it's really been a feeling out process.
00:53:56Ow!
00:53:57What a right s***.
00:54:03He's out.
00:54:04He's out again.
00:54:06Damn it.
00:54:08You get him that quick back to back, it's not good.
00:54:14He got in the ring too soon.
00:54:15He got in the ring too soon.
00:54:20Well, that's not good.
00:54:21I understand our medical team is standing by as we step aside on LFG.
00:54:27Fans really got behind mankind.
00:54:30Rock becomes the bad guy.
00:54:32That match got carried away in a way that I hope no other match ever does.
00:54:36WWE Rivals.
00:54:37New episode next.
00:54:38WWE Superstar Sunday.
00:54:40Locations.
00:54:40Visit CircleK.com for details.
00:54:47Well, we're back on LFG.
00:54:48This happened before the commercial break.
00:54:50You see this stinging forearm, which drew the attention to all the legends from Cutler
00:54:55James to Shiloh Hill.
00:54:57We have talked about Shiloh Hill's past.
00:54:59We talked so earlier tonight.
00:55:00It's been a great job by our official who is in this matchup checking on Shiloh Hill as
00:55:06we're back to the ring right now.
00:55:08There you see both competitors still showing a nice sign of sportsmanship between the two.
00:55:20What?
00:55:25Let's go!
00:55:28I'm Shiloh!
00:55:33Oh, he back slapped the s*** out of him.
00:55:35He sold that to you, you see him?
00:55:39Yeah, Shiloh!
00:55:41That's the aggression.
00:55:42That's what they wanted to see.
00:55:44Undertaker.
00:55:45Very proud, Bubba.
00:55:47Very proud.
00:55:48Wow!
00:55:48What a big right by Shiloh Hill.
00:55:51I felt that in my soul.
00:55:53I felt that in my soul.
00:55:55I'm glad he's okay, but man, Hill pulled one over everyone.
00:55:59Me, everyone in attendance except Taker, Bubba, you, and now it's Hill who is starting to
00:56:04separate himself in this matchup.
00:56:07Oh, my word.
00:56:09It's all about telling a story, right?
00:56:10That's what our legends have really been strong in forcing that on these future greats.
00:56:15And Shiloh Hill saw an opportunity and made the best of it.
00:56:19Great swinging neck breaker.
00:56:21Still not enough to keep Cutler James.
00:56:23I mean, even Mickey had her heartstrings tugged on.
00:56:27I mean, this is the beauty of what these legends are trying to coach these men and women.
00:56:31There's nothing beautiful, though, about what Hill is doing right now to Cutler James,
00:56:36who has not been the same since he let his guard down and then got flobbered from on.
00:56:41Oh, and look at the back.
00:56:43The welts forming on the back of Cutler James.
00:56:46Well, you know, they say the same ballet.
00:56:48And as we're seeing from the back of Cutler James, such hard-hitting, ferocious action
00:56:52from these two future greats.
00:56:57Judo.
00:56:58Call it whatever you want to.
00:57:00Cutler right now is reawoken in this matchup.
00:57:06Boom!
00:57:09Look at his back.
00:57:10I'm slapped.
00:57:11Cutler's back.
00:57:12I'm serious.
00:57:13Oh, f***.
00:57:17And that pain being used as fuel as James dropped Hill into the cover.
00:57:24And James overcomes the odds to pick up the win.
00:57:29Here's your winner, Cutler James!
00:57:35Excellent.
00:57:36Excellent.
00:57:36The legends are pleased.
00:57:38What did CM Punk think?
00:57:41He will be the one awarding the points.
00:57:44And that decision is coming up next here on LFG.
00:57:48In the match, it looked like Shiloh got his bell rung.
00:57:52Everyone instantly remembers, like, just a few weeks ago, Shiloh had a concussion.
00:57:56It was so well executed because how uncomfortable it was.
00:58:00All right, gentlemen, hard-fought match out there.
00:58:03Let's get some feedback from the legends.
00:58:06First off, you need to f***ing congratulate each other.
00:58:10They bit on the spot.
00:58:11It was very, very well executed.
00:58:14In order for that to work, it has to feel uncomfortable.
00:58:18You have to take your time.
00:58:20You have to have me questioning what I'm seeing in front of me.
00:58:24But that one shot, bang, that shot looked real to me.
00:58:30If you can make the fans feel like that each and every night, you're going to win.
00:58:36Turn around.
00:58:37Yeah.
00:58:37Turn around.
00:58:39Yeah!
00:58:42Holy s***!
00:58:44You still are...
00:58:45This sounded like a gunshot.
00:58:48How about ya?
00:58:49Those little things like that will separate because it's real.
00:58:54That's the way you would do it if it was in the street.
00:58:57I would have preferred that he helps you up or whatever.
00:59:00You hit him like a hair while his back was turned.
00:59:04I would have rather you, like, bum-rushed him from behind.
00:59:09If you have the forethought to be sneaky and diabolical enough to fake, like,
00:59:14your chute knocked out and injured and we're doing all this,
00:59:18you're not going to hit him in his face.
00:59:20You're going to wait until he turns around.
00:59:22Yeah, and that, to me, would accentuate what y'all were trying to do.
00:59:28I...
00:59:28You look like a hockey player.
00:59:30I love it.
00:59:31That didn't even happen here.
00:59:33It's a fantastic f***ing look.
00:59:34We need more of that.
00:59:40Next up, CM Punk will award the points.
00:59:44With Dupixit.
00:59:46Again, another phenomenal day by our talent here.
00:59:49I think if it comes down to one word,
00:59:51I think what everybody was looking for today was range.
00:59:55Punk, obviously this is going to come down from a scoring standpoint to you,
01:00:00a point to one of the men,
01:00:02a point to one of the women.
01:00:04Comfort Zone is a fantastic thing, but nothing grows there.
01:00:09Everybody who stood up without any direction about a promo,
01:00:14no time, no opponent, nothing to sell,
01:00:18you pass that test because it was really just to see who was going to stand up.
01:00:21And I'm looking at overall everything.
01:00:25So, you know, could be a chance that if BJ wrestled here today,
01:00:30you might be getting the point, Bubba.
01:00:33But he didn't.
01:00:34The two people who did both today,
01:00:37who are getting the point on the ladies' side,
01:00:39it's Tyra.
01:00:44Yes!
01:00:46Okay.
01:00:49You don't got to do all that.
01:00:51Well, I cried.
01:00:52I put my feelings on.
01:00:53I got the point for the team.
01:00:56Felt good.
01:00:58Felt really, really, really good.
01:01:02For the men,
01:01:05the point goes to Jasper.
01:01:09It felt like he was giving me a nod.
01:01:11Like, okay, I see the vision.
01:01:14You know, hopefully he sees that we can do business one day.
01:01:19This goes back to the whole reason I just sprung it on them to cut a promo.
01:01:24Because I think if Shiloh cuts a promo,
01:01:27Team Undertaker gets the point.
01:01:28With that, the new standings are
01:01:32Undertaker, two points.
01:01:34Mickie James, two points.
01:01:37Bubba Ray, not quite on the board just yet.
01:01:40And Booker T with four points.
01:01:48I don't really think, no matter how well the match went,
01:01:51I don't think I would have gotten a point.
01:01:53And I think the same for Chris.
01:01:57Jasper did his thing.
01:01:58Give it to him.
01:01:59Ain't nobody say he led me this time.
01:02:03It's just one point, you know.
01:02:05There's a lot of points to be scored.
01:02:07I do believe that the points were given fairly.
01:02:11If I had just a bit more experienced,
01:02:13then I would have won those points.
01:02:14And I would have finally got Bubba on the board.
01:02:17This is hard work.
01:02:19But hard work is easy work for Team 5 time.
01:02:24My team has all the potential in the world.
01:02:29But potential doesn't put asses in seats.
01:02:33We had an opportunity to get two points,
01:02:36and we only got one.
01:02:38And it was because he didn't feel like
01:02:40he needed to get up and cut a promo.
01:02:43Me and Shiloh will have a discussion.
01:02:46I can promise you
01:02:48that he will not ever
01:02:50not get up and participate again.
01:02:54There's been a lot of opportunities so far
01:02:56for me to earn my team a point,
01:02:57and I haven't gotten one.
01:02:59So, uh,
01:03:01uh, definitely on my mind.
01:03:03In the wake of CM Punk's decision,
01:03:05Shiloh Hill is asked to share his thoughts
01:03:08before he heads out for the day.
01:03:11Taker seems to have a lot of faith in me.
01:03:14How does that feel?
01:03:16Uh,
01:03:17if it was...
01:03:18So, like, honestly,
01:03:20now I'm just getting mad
01:03:21that I didn't cut a promo.
01:03:22I kind of, in that moment,
01:03:23felt some legitimate regret
01:03:25that I didn't take that opportunity
01:03:27and ultimately cost my team another point.
01:03:30Honestly, it kind of turned into, like,
01:03:31a pity party.
01:03:32And, like, they said it was about
01:03:33knowing your character,
01:03:34and, like, to be honest, bro,
01:03:35I don't give a f*** about someone's grandma
01:03:37or grandpa or whatever.
01:03:38I don't give a f*** about BJ.
01:03:40I don't give a f*** about...
01:03:41Bro, half the f*** people are talking about it.
01:03:42I'm just sitting there like,
01:03:43bro, this is a f***ing pissing contest
01:03:45and there's some emotion right now.
01:03:46I'm getting f***ing heated,
01:03:47and all these f***ing people
01:03:48are talking about f***
01:03:49that no one f*** cares about.
01:03:51So I don't feel the need to f***
01:03:52come in here and have a pissing contest
01:03:54on who can make who feel what
01:03:55and emotions, bro.
01:03:56I'm not here to tell f***ing emotion.
01:03:58I'm not here to tell metaphors, bro,
01:03:59that Mike isn't a pipe bomb
01:04:00because they never f***ing blow up.
01:04:01I'm here to tell real f***ing violence.
01:04:06Shylock, can I ask you a question?
01:04:08Why didn't you do that this afternoon?
01:04:11On the right?
01:04:15That kid's a one-eater.
01:04:19You have to seize every opportunity
01:04:23and to know that that's Indians?
01:04:25Yeah.
01:04:27On top of what he can do in the rain?
01:04:30God almighty.
01:04:33You and that boy
01:04:33are going to have a long talk tomorrow.
01:04:37Next time on LFG.
01:04:40An opportunity will come.
01:04:42I want you to seize it
01:04:43and kill it, man.
01:04:45There are still people
01:04:46that have yet to be
01:04:47in front of the crowd.
01:04:49I'm about to be in front of the people.
01:04:51Looks like he's done playing games right now.
01:04:53Full transparency, I was terrified.
01:04:55Single day view.
01:04:58We gotta make them feel it.
01:05:01Oh!
