00:00John Cena.
00:04What the f***?
00:06Last week, tempers flared in the most intense moment in LFG history.
00:13But tonight, the future greats look to take back control
00:17in a very special sink or swim episode of LFG.
00:21The people are a b****.
00:22Two very combustible elements hit the ring
00:25as Anthony Luke takes on Harlem Lewis.
00:27I've been listening to him talk.
00:29I'm going to punch you in the f***ing head.
00:30Push me there.
00:31Trill London looks to take down frontrunner Shiloh Hill.
00:36Serena Linton and Bailey Humphrey must put friendship aside
00:40as they go to battle with one another.
00:43Nice bump.
00:45In our main event, polar opposites P. Nasty
00:48and Zena Sterling renewed their rivalry.
00:51You're extra stupid because you think you're about to take season two
00:53from P. Nasty.
00:54And one shocking moment will leave the legend stunned and speechless.
01:01I knew in her voice that something was wrong.
01:04Hello, everyone.
01:08Are tensions at least a little calmer than they were?
01:15Drake, Elijah, are we good?
01:18Good.
01:18All right?
01:20All right.
01:20We're going to need to be.
01:22Today, what we're going to do,
01:25it's going to be sink or swim time.
01:29All right?
01:31Your legends,
01:32they're going to step back
01:34and they're going to be hands off.
01:36You have to get together,
01:39come up with your own match.
01:43How it's going to go,
01:44what the story's going to be,
01:46how it's going to start,
01:47how it's going to end.
01:48All of that,
01:49it's decided by you.
01:52You might wind up in the ring
01:55with somebody you don't particularly get along with.
01:58How are you going to make that work?
02:01This can be an incredibly selfish business.
02:06And a lot of times,
02:07it's supposed to be.
02:10But at the same time,
02:12you have to work together.
02:15Legends,
02:17sit back and enjoy it.
02:19So good luck, everybody.
02:28Welcome to the Ultimate Proving Ground.
02:3416 future greats.
02:40Four legends.
02:42He is the epitome of WrestleMania.
02:46Aim high, you better aim hard
02:47because I'm going to do whatever it takes.
02:48He might get the table.
02:52Can you dig that sucker?
02:54A chance to win an NXT contract.
02:58Every legend has a first chapter.
03:02And the future starts now.
03:08The challenge has been set.
03:13And the legends gather to discuss
03:14which future greats they feel
03:16are ready to grasp the reins.
03:18My guy, he's a general.
03:20And I think he's going to take
03:21this whole thing, Harlem Louis.
03:23He's looking for somebody to step up.
03:27I'll tell you who to step up.
03:28I'll put my first round draft pick.
03:30Anthony Luke.
03:31Anthony Luke.
03:32Up against Harlem.
03:33The kid that I gave all the experts.
03:36All the expert tutelage.
03:37Tutelage.
03:39Tutelage.
03:39Yeah, yeah, I get it.
03:40So Anthony and Harlem
03:44are going to be able
03:45to put a match together.
03:46It's going to shock and amazing.
03:47It's going to shock and amazing.
03:48It's going to shock and amazing.
03:51All right, I got Bailey
03:52coming up to me, man.
03:53I don't know that she's necessarily
03:54a ring general yet,
03:56but she actually mentioned
03:57that her and Serena
03:59are really close.
04:00Oh, okay.
04:01Evidently, they feel
04:02in a sink or swim atmosphere
04:04that they have such a connection
04:06that they can put it together
04:08and deliver.
04:09Wait, combined,
04:10how long have they been here?
04:11Less than a year.
04:12But I can tell you this.
04:13We've seen it right
04:14before our very eyes.
04:15The growth in Serena
04:16from season one
04:18to season two.
04:19And I'm going to tell you,
04:19just being around her,
04:21she seems comfortable, man.
04:22She seems like she's ready
04:23to take on the world.
04:24So I said put her in there
04:25and let her go.
04:25She's walking with a little pepper.
04:26She's got you some points.
04:27She's already got me two points, man.
04:29She's my golden goose.
04:30Why don't we pick up
04:33where they left off
04:34last season?
04:36Semifinals?
04:38Your body slam!
04:40Serena, congratulations.
04:41You've earned
04:42this trip to the finals.
04:44Penina's got something to prove.
04:46Yeah.
04:46That's marquee.
04:47I like that.
04:47That's marquee.
04:50I've got to have
04:51what's the odds on favor
04:52to win this for the men.
04:54Shiloh.
04:56I will give you Trill.
04:57I know he hasn't been here long.
04:59Look, it's sink or swim
04:59like Book said.
05:00Oh, baby.
05:01But Trill,
05:02from an athletic standpoint,
05:03whoa.
05:05Damn.
05:06That's strong, man.
05:07That's strong.
05:08It's big time.
05:11So we're all in agreement.
05:14Hands off.
05:15Hands off.
05:16Not a word.
05:17We're good.
05:18Sink or swim.
05:19Sink or swim.
05:20This is going to be really good.
05:21I like it.
05:22The task at hand
05:25was to be able
05:26to be a ring general,
05:28the two future greats
05:29to be able
05:29to put a match together,
05:31a finish that they agree on
05:33and see who would do
05:34the best job.
05:36This is going to be
05:37an interesting one.
05:38They have a coach
05:38looking from afar,
05:39but they are literally,
05:41from start to finish,
05:42putting the whole thing together,
05:43hands off from us.
05:45I'm not sure what that was.
05:47I don't know either.
05:48I'm not sure
05:49what they're doing right now.
05:49I don't know that they're sure
05:50what they're doing,
05:51but I got faith.
05:52You got faith?
05:53I got faith.
05:54Look at that team
05:55McCool shirt.
05:55Carl Sona, I got faith.
05:57Being able to go against Shiloh,
05:58you know,
05:59watching season one,
05:59you know,
05:59he was the runner-up.
06:00That's the guy right now.
06:03Michelle, you know,
06:03she believes in me,
06:04and it's only right for me
06:05to go out there
06:05and take out the top guy.
06:07And that's it.
06:08That's all I'm going to do.
06:09Watch.
06:12I got paired with Serena.
06:13I was really excited
06:15because not only
06:16she's my best friend,
06:17but her and I
06:17just have really good chemistry
06:19in the ring,
06:19and I feel like
06:20we can put on a show.
06:22Bailey and I have grown
06:23really close,
06:25so I was really excited
06:26to get that match done
06:27and do it well.
06:28How's that feel?
06:29Okay.
06:30I was very excited
06:32for Zena and Panina
06:34because this was going to be
06:35the follow-up to season one.
06:37They went to the semifinals,
06:40but Zena really, really
06:42got Panina
06:42through that match last year
06:44to the point
06:45where Panina admitted
06:46on camera,
06:48Zena Sterling
06:49got me through.
06:52Putting the match together
06:53was a struggle.
06:55I was the one
06:56that got the wheels turning
06:57pretty much.
06:58I was the one
06:58that had to, you know,
06:59come on,
06:59all right,
07:00let's get things going.
07:02No one ever likes to lose
07:03and everybody wants to win,
07:06but it just didn't work that way.
07:08So you had,
07:08they had to figure
07:09all that stuff out.
07:13What is this,
07:13two Ks?
07:13Are you going to drag me?
07:14Ah!
07:16So I ended up getting
07:17paired up with Anthony Luke
07:18and me and him
07:19don't always see eye-to-eye
07:20on things.
07:21Me and him have a different
07:22idea of what makes more sense.
07:24So I think,
07:25so I think...
07:26I'll get the point for Zena.
07:27I should be over it.
07:27Because I don't have to do it.
07:28But if I'm not over,
07:29it's okay.
07:30You can do all the moves
07:30and you can win
07:31and I'll still get the point.
07:32That's not going to happen.
07:33It was like two bulls
07:35just button heads.
07:36One would throw it on
07:37another idea.
07:38No, I don't like that.
07:39One would throw it on another idea.
07:40I don't think that's going to work.
07:42We're supposed to put the match
07:43together right now,
07:43together, right?
07:44All right.
07:44And you want to put together
07:45the whole thing, right?
07:46You want to call my moves
07:46for me and like all that?
07:48I mean,
07:48who had the best matches
07:49last season?
07:50I think Anthony's
07:51a little jealous,
07:52to be honest.
07:53I think Anthony's
07:54a little jealous
07:54because now Harlem
07:55is one of my guys.
07:56He's my guy now.
07:58Harlem, he's a cocky guy.
07:59He's got ego
08:00and I understand
08:01why he's good.
08:02But sometimes,
08:03everyone needs to be shut up.
08:04Throw away everything
08:05you have and start these guys.
08:06All right.
08:06And we'll start the whole match.
08:07What do you want to do?
08:08How do you want to do this?
08:11I step in the ring
08:12and I want every single person
08:13watching to be like,
08:14that's real.
08:15Like, I'm really
08:16the other guy up.
08:17Hey, timing.
08:19timing.
08:19You got to be fast.
08:20Stop rushing.
08:21I'm not rushing.
08:22Have you ever seen me rush?
08:23What's the point?
08:24Bro, slow down.
08:25Has anyone ever told you
08:26to slow down?
08:26Yes, exactly.
08:26So slow down.
08:27Slow down.
08:28You're telling me to slow down.
08:30Literally, you keep going faster.
08:31Just listen.
08:32Slow down and speed up.
08:33Hey, hey, hey.
08:34Slow down.
08:35Listen.
08:36Listen up.
08:36Listen up.
08:38I said listen to me.
08:38I'm going to punch you in the
08:39Hey, push me in.
08:40You're calling me like that.
08:41Push me in.
08:42I'm trying to tell you.
08:43I'm trying to give you a speed.
08:44I'm trying to help you.
08:45I'm trying to help you.
08:46You don't know as much as you think you know.
08:50None of us are coaches.
08:52So I don't like when people on the show
08:53start trying to act like coaches.
08:55I was a little nervous
08:56about how that was going to translate
08:57in the ring come game time.
08:58I had to challenge myself
09:02because I kept wanting to somehow interject.
09:06They got this.
09:09I may or may not have watched from
09:10watched them put it together
09:14with the with the idea maybe of
09:17catching them as they went back through.
09:19I didn't do it.
09:21I followed the rules.
09:28With match preparation complete,
09:30it was time for action here on LFG.
09:34Anthony Luke.
09:36You talk too much.
09:39You want to try to big time
09:40everybody around here?
09:42Keep around.
09:43I'll make sure you find out.
09:47Only on A&E.
09:49It's time to get the action going here
09:51on Legends and Future Greats.
09:57If you smell it out loud.
10:00Everything's in my cold.
10:02From Sacramento, California.
10:05We got 257 pounds.
10:09These guys.
10:10I'm anxious to see this finish.
10:13These guys are going at me.
10:16Things don't put it over here.
10:18That's a good thing.
10:18You know what I mean?
10:19I think it's just here.
10:21But let's see how well they got to do.
10:23If you don't sell, all of them
10:23will make his monkey ass thing.
10:26How about that?
10:27Oh, yeah?
10:28I'll be damn right.
10:30Look, y'all missed it.
10:31No buckle, no box.
10:33But look, he didn't even go up like the rock.
10:34He didn't go up like the rock.
10:37Well, he looked a little different tonight.
10:38I give, man.
10:39He's walking a little different.
10:40Look at him.
10:41Here's the pony.
10:43Representing team, Bumper G.
10:45From Rhode Island, New York.
10:48Waiting at 255, Kyla Lewis.
10:56Well, JB, it's safe to say both these men feel they're the top dog and the one to beat
11:00in the competition, even when you hear from the legends here on LFG.
11:06All right.
11:07What do we got here?
11:08We left it all up to these two.
11:09We left it all up to these two.
11:11What do they got?
11:12Well, if it's any indication, by the way, Harlem Lewis walked to the ring with his eyes,
11:16focused on Anthony Luke like a hawk.
11:19Big collar and elbow tie-up by the two big men.
11:23Harlem Lewis out of New York City, Anthony Luke.
11:26That, of course, said no.
11:27Oh, locking up on the floor, why don't you?
11:30Bubba, maybe you should join us here at the desk.
11:33But as we've heard, and you may know more than me, there was a massive disagreement while
11:36putting this matchup together between both these men, one being Anthony Luke,
11:41the other being Harlem Lewis.
11:43I think, JB, we're going to learn a lot more about their professionalism.
11:47This is Marshall!
11:48That's why they brought me on, right?
11:51Because you couldn't get the chopped up.
11:55We brought you on to be my bitch.
11:56Oh!
11:57Oh!
11:58Let's go.
11:58Well, make no mistake about it.
12:01No professional, real courtesies here, given.
12:03This is all about advancing to the next stage of their career.
12:07Oh!
12:08He got on him.
12:09He got on him.
12:12Yep, take that.
12:13Not today.
12:13Not today.
12:14There you go.
12:15All right.
12:16That was a lie.
12:17You guys are bringing it.
12:18I like it.
12:19Pretty interesting how much the legends enjoy when there are both live rounds being thrown
12:23inside the ring.
12:24And we're seeing a peeping helping of them here in this matchup.
12:28And a lot of yelling earlier.
12:29And we're seeing how it was all put together.
12:32Nice drop.
12:33Nice drop.
12:34Nice bump.
12:35Nice bump.
12:35Height.
12:35Got to give credit where credit is due, by the way.
12:38It was Michelle McCool who stepped in and tried to piece between these two.
12:43And a chop block from Luke, taking Lewis down.
12:46And in your opinion, how will these two get it on in the ring and possibly keep it together?
12:53Make yourself small.
12:54Make yourself big.
12:55Make yourself big.
12:57Yes, sir.
12:57Good job by our official in this matchup.
13:08And look, Anthony Luke, for his scouting report, always very cocky before the match, during
13:13the match.
13:14Well, more so if he's victorious after the match.
13:17D gives out on Lewis.
13:18And look at the power.
13:19And bam, big power slam from Showtime.
13:22Anthony Luke into the cover, hook to the leg, and a quick kick out.
13:26Get on him.
13:27Get on him.
13:27Go back to the leg.
13:28We're at the midpoint of this season.
13:30And we can already tell both men, either one of these could take the whole thing.
13:33Anthony Luke, we saw what he did in season one.
13:35Harlem Lewis on the scene here in season two.
13:37He's so effective.
13:38And wow.
13:42Another kick out by Lewis.
13:44Look, Anthony's a born leader.
13:45He wants to lead.
13:46He wants that pressure.
13:47But that being said, Harlem and maybe some of the others.
13:50This is Marshall.
13:52He might not like necessarily the tone in which Anthony speaks.
13:56Well, of course, you've got to take a look at the tone.
13:57And Harlem Lewis brings the table as well.
13:59I mean, not exactly the friendliest of customers out there.
14:02But when the bell rings, it's intensity.
14:04Personified for both men.
14:05Whoa.
14:06Up over.
14:07Shoulders down.
14:08And a near fall.
14:09Really the first sign of life for Lewis here in this matchup.
14:12Looking for a backslide off the counter.
14:14And again, Luke able to kick out.
14:16And then, oh, right back to that left knee.
14:19Dropping Lewis.
14:20Luke right back in control.
14:22Looking for that power slam one more time.
14:24Lewis doing his best to create some separation.
14:27And the knee gave out one more time.
14:29And again, showtime making him pay.
14:31Game to another cover.
14:33And another kick out.
14:35At least right now, these two seem to be as another kick out on the same page.
14:38Tony Luke doing his best to find himself in the middle of season two here in LFC.
14:44I really don't know who Tony Luke is.
14:49I don't think that's any fault of any trainer, to be honest.
14:52Well, for Harlem Lewis, who's body may be starting to give out on him a little bit in this matchup.
15:06He's really the unknown.
15:07He's the new kid on the block.
15:08It certainly has grown very quickly.
15:11And, well, Anthony Luke also has had that same growing in the last year or so when Lewis made him pay.
15:18Well, you've got to remember, Booker T has been in the year of Harlem Lewis since the day he arrived on the scene here in season two of LFG.
15:24And Booker T has been pretty consistent in his delivery.
15:27Go out there, be intense, smash him in the face.
15:30It's also been in the year of Anthony Luke as well if we go back to season one.
15:34But right now, pivotal point in this matchup.
15:37And there's a lot of question marks surrounding these two because of how they were treating one another early on.
15:42But at this juncture, both seem to be getting it on right now.
15:47Very nice back drop.
15:48Very nice back drop.
15:52Back to the leg sale.
15:55Love it.
15:56Harlem Lewis is so intense.
15:58And you can see that.
15:58He carries himself that way, too.
16:00You're not going to have a lot of long conversations with Harlem Lewis.
16:02Very much to the point.
16:05He's a meat and potatoes kind of guy.
16:07But again, the need that Anthony Luke has been focusing on, giving out.
16:11Luke trying to make Lewis pay one more time, possibly with a powerbomb.
16:15Lewis goes up, goes over, tries to get Showtime down.
16:20Shoulders are down.
16:21Oh!
16:23Wow, that was really good.
16:24Wait, did he just turn heel again?
16:28Harlem!
16:29Went out of the Booker G playbook.
16:31How did he turn heel at the end?
16:34Well, again, it's not about who wins the match.
16:36It's about who earns the legend's respect, so to speak.
16:41Who earns a point.
16:43Well, one of these two men earn a point for everything they've gone through in and out of the ring here tonight.
16:51Harlem Lewis showed up with that intensity.
16:53We saw that throughout the entire matchup.
16:55Anthony Luke was able to answer with some great offense.
16:57We'll see who will get the point here on LFG.
17:04Bulls**t.
17:05Really, Harlem?
17:06You gonna cheat to beat me?
17:08I mean, I get it.
17:09That's the only way anyone could beat me around here.
17:11Because I'm the best.
17:12You know it.
17:13The legends know it.
17:15Everybody knows it.
17:17It's all good, though.
17:18I outperformed during that match.
17:20That's why I'm getting that point.
17:21Looks like you got some new genes.
17:44I think I kind of like the hoodie.
17:48I just see him sitting on the computer right now.
17:56Well, look, he'll go about his business, doesn't he?
17:58He trains, he studies, and he surfs the dark web.
18:03The great general.
18:04Oh, Trill just hooks on and he joins the ride.
18:08Okay.
18:09Okay.
18:10Okay.
18:11Shouts.
18:11Lots of fire.
18:12A Trill ride.
18:13A Trill ride.
18:14Take it by the hand.
18:15Oh.
18:17Trill!
18:18Trill!
18:19Trill!
18:19He's on the rock!
18:21Heretic!
18:22Trill!
18:23Trill!
18:23Trill!
18:24We're all the way to do it!
18:27Here's the thing with Trill, though.
18:29Trill has Tony Luke syndrome.
18:31Tony Luke wants to be The Rock, and Trill wants to be Jeff Hart.
18:34Oh, no, no, no.
18:37That's old Jeff.
18:38He's moving exactly like Jeff.
18:41He crawled out like Jeff.
18:44Oh!
18:45Like, oh!
18:49Oh!
18:52That's dirty.
18:53That is dirty.
18:54Who told him that?
18:55Yeah, I think I told him.
18:56Hmm.
18:57I don't even know if we've actually heard a bell sound to officially begin this matchup.
19:02Right on the gate, Shiloh Hill.
19:04The Advice of the Undertaker taking it to Trill London.
19:09There you go.
19:09Yeah, Trill!
19:10He caught you like Jeff!
19:11One, two, three, four!
19:14Well, look, Shiloh's got to be on cloud nine, JB.
19:16The Undertaker, full confidence in him.
19:18Called him the frontrunner to win season two.
19:20Well, how could you argue with the success?
19:22Shiloh Hill has shown so much growth over the course of these two seasons, seeing what he
19:26can do in the ring and back it up from a personality standpoint.
19:29But Trill London, show it up.
19:32Well, look, I want to ask you this when it comes to Michelle McCool.
19:34Do you agree that despite inexperience, Trill will be able to hang and help wrap this match
19:39due to his uncanny athleticism?
19:42Well, he's certainly a freak when it comes to his athletic ability.
19:45But look at Shiloh Hill wasting no time.
19:48Just another superstar Sunday for Shiloh Hill.
19:51Rugged, rough, nasty, gnarly.
19:57Just some of the words to describe Shiloh Hill, who is slowing the pace and methodically now
20:02picking apart his opponent.
20:05You've got to pick apart Shiloh Hill to realize what a complex individual he is.
20:09An incredible performer.
20:11It's an innovative way to get into the tree of low.
20:13Yep.
20:15Just throw him into it.
20:17Well, it's hard to impress him.
20:18Well, he's certainly being pretty vocal about things.
20:21Not only kick out, but take him.
20:24Trill London to task.
20:26Right out of the gate for his mannerisms a la Jeff Hardy.
20:30Remain to be seen if Trill London can shake that.
20:34Wow.
20:35Oh.
20:36Talk about some athleticism.
20:37Look at Shiloh Hill.
20:42Where'd that come from?
20:44I think The Undertaker's out on that.
20:46Babyface movie.
20:47I just said, babyface movie.
20:49I think he was trying to give him a little of his own medicine.
20:55They didn't tell that story beforehand.
20:56He was trying to show off.
20:57He was trying to show off.
20:58He was trying to show off.
20:58He was saying that.
20:59He was saying that.
20:59I just did.
21:00He was saying that.
21:01I just did.
21:03You must be watching some old Punisher tapes.
21:05I was going to ask you, JB.
21:09Was that something me, Mark, used to pull out back in the day?
21:12Wow.
21:12Yeah.
21:13Going to a deep dive and Google all that.
21:15That's amazing.
21:16And Shiloh Hill.
21:17Right now, you can't run around.
21:19You can't jump.
21:20You can't fly.
21:20You can't stand.
21:21That seems to be the mindset for Shiloh Hill, who certainly has turned this match up upside
21:25down along with his opponent.
21:27You wonder what Hill thinks about someone like Jasper Troy, and all Troy has accomplished.
21:31The season one winner, right after winning, made a premium live event debut.
21:35He's even challenged for the NXT Championship.
21:37And Trill from behind.
21:39Shoulders down.
21:40Near fall.
21:40Right back up.
21:41And going right back to work.
21:44That was tight.
21:46There ain't nowhere in there.
21:48Nice.
21:48Well, you can't help but notice that each and every competitor here on LFG has been watching
21:54the career progression of the winners from last season.
21:57Shiloh's setting it up perfectly.
21:58Oh.
21:59Nice.
22:00Good targets.
22:01Oh, my gosh.
22:02Oh, I'm not saying what he is.
22:04Oh, my gosh.
22:05Pull up over here.
22:06Shiloh's giving Shiloh good targets.
22:08My guy is there.
22:09Versus the target where Shiloh's pinned up in the corner, Shiloh's.
22:13Right?
22:14Okay.
22:14Y'all believe what you want to believe.
22:16Nice target, Shiloh.
22:18Again, looking at everything with a new set of eyes every week here on LFG into the cover
22:24and another kick out by Trill.
22:28I don't know.
22:30I didn't want to throw my Trill in here thinking he was going to sneak, but I'm not sure what
22:34he was thinking.
22:38You know, as right now, Trill getting back into the matchup.
22:40We heard what the legends had to say, especially Bubba.
22:42Do you think Trill is too much of a clone per se?
22:46You know what?
22:47If he's successful and it works, you know, there's only one Trill London.
22:50He needs to be that man.
22:51But obviously, however you're influenced to get there along the way, no shame in that.
22:57There are some similarities.
22:59You can't argue.
23:00Into the cover off the Swanton.
23:02And this, you could consider an upset.
23:06Here is your winner, Trill London.
23:09Now, Booker G looks perplexed.
23:14We can read his mind.
23:16Let's see what happens.
23:17Who will get the point on LFG?
23:19Just being able to go out there and get my first win on the show meant a lot to me, you know?
23:29Finishing that match with the Swanton is just, the inner kid is just going crazy right now
23:33because you don't know how many times I didn't practice the Swanton on my teddy bears.
23:37And to be able to go out there and do it for real, it's crazy.
23:41While Trill celebrates his first victory, Bailey and Serena get set to hit the ring with one another.
23:51Time for the women to take center stage on LFG.
23:55The following contest is scheduled for one fall.
23:59Oh, they're coming up.
24:03They're coming up.
24:05Give me the dance.
24:06Give me the dance.
24:08Come on.
24:09I wish my shoulder would go that bit.
24:21We talked about Hill, Luke, Lewis tonight with the men's side of things.
24:27JV has a female stood out to you yet here on LFG.
24:31How do you pick just one at this point?
24:32On your toes.
24:33She seems very flat.
24:41I told her to do like the Brock entrance on her toes.
24:44Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
24:45Her opponent represents Team Boopity.
24:51From Phoenix, Arizona, Serena Linton.
24:56There's already tons of personality here.
24:58Well, you may not know it, but these two are best friends.
25:03And despite being here for less than a year combined, and I want that to sink in, JV, both these women have been here for less than 12 months combined in the WWE.
25:14Who does she have all in?
25:17Yeah.
25:18I see it now.
25:24You can factor that in across the board with all these competitors, the amount of experience in the ring.
25:28That's why the future greats moniker is so appropriate.
25:31There, finally.
25:32Okay, there you go.
25:34There we go.
25:34Maybe she thought that's what you meant.
25:38Well, it was obviously, it wasn't paying attention.
25:40Nice!
25:43Boom!
25:45Early on, you see Bubba, Undertaker, very invested in this match for the point you just made, JV.
25:50Do you think that they'll be able to put on a great match with, well, again, not being very experienced, even though they've had these legends guiding them?
25:59There's so much time invested.
26:04You know, what you don't see here on the program is the amount of hours that Undertaker, that Booker T, Bubba, and Michelle all spend with their future greats.
26:12Obviously, Booker T spending the time with Serena to guide her has really turned up the personality side of things, whereas Bailey is one of these unique individuals that Undertaker sees a long-term great future in.
26:25And investing the time now to develop those skills.
26:27We're seeing those skills on display right here on LH.
26:30Yeah, and these two started the PC at the same time, quickly formed a friendship.
26:34We've seen them on social media all together.
26:36I'm sure it was a lot easier for them to put a match together, unlike Anthony Luke and Harlan Lewis.
26:41Well, let's see what happens.
26:42I mean, obviously, the competition is still there.
26:44Fierce competitors, both.
26:45Uh-oh, she's going up.
26:48Not today!
26:50Nice, nice, nice, nice, nice, nice, nice, nice.
26:53Got caught.
26:54Hoisted up high.
26:57Whoa!
27:00Well, Bailey, not going to be outdone.
27:01At first, you don't succeed.
27:03Figure out another way to plant your opponent.
27:09Is she okay?
27:11Oh, something's wrong.
27:18He's not.
27:20Carry ahead, please.
27:29He's not.
27:30I knew in her voice that something was wrong, and I had to stop the match.
27:42Did you see anything?
27:43I didn't see anything.
27:44I didn't see anything.
27:45I didn't see when it happened.
27:49You can hear the concern in the voices of the legends.
27:51She doesn't know her mail wrong.
27:58She doesn't know her eyes look out.
28:02You know, this has to be a nerve-wracking for all involved.
28:04Legends looking on athletes themselves, obviously, and if you can, yeah, Pierre, great job by our camera crew.
28:09Can't imagine what Bailey is feeling right now, seeing that her best friend is down and, I mean,
28:17was in her hands, was in her care, so to speak.
28:20Well, we did see things go awry there quickly.
28:23Booker now getting up to check on his future, great.
28:27Obviously, it's a scary situation.
28:30It's a very scary situation.
28:31You can see the look of concern, too, in Bailey Humphrey right now, and you've got to wonder how this will weigh on Bailey
28:42and perhaps even affect Serena as the season rolls on.
28:49It was just unfortunate.
28:50It was unfortunate for Bailey.
28:52It was unfortunate for Serena.
28:54It was not something we ever wished for, man.
28:58I thought you were on top, man, and then you just collapsed on me.
28:59Yeah, that's when I blacked out, and all of a sudden I was on the ground, and he said,
29:02do it again, and I didn't know where we are.
29:04Like, I had no idea where I was at.
29:06Let's go back here and talk.
29:07I thought you seemed like it was the backbone.
29:08Okay.
29:08Thanks, Booker.
29:11When you see your best friend getting checked out the way she was,
29:14that moment, it's like a blank in time.
29:16Like, everything around me, like, stopped.
29:18Like, there wasn't anything around me.
29:20I was just like, you get, like, tunnel vision.
29:22I hope she's okay.
29:23I hope she's okay.
29:24Sorry.
29:24We're better.
29:25Good job.
29:26Oh, yeah.
29:27A sobering feeling throughout the PC as everyone settles back in after a frightening scene.
29:35That one took me out a little bit, man.
29:38But LFG moves fast, and up next, it was our main event of the evening.
29:44Tina Sterling, you're the dumbest girl in the damn PC.
29:47You let season one slip out your hands because you had a booboo on your damn knee.
29:50And you're extra stupid because you think you're about to take season two from P-Nasty.
29:55Do not get it twisted.
29:56We are about to be the main event.
29:59But come on now.
30:00I am the main event.
30:02And you're going to find out and come get your damn issue.
30:05LFG.
30:08LFG.
30:10LFG.
30:11LFG.
30:12Welcome in ringside.
30:16Vic Joseph alongside Jeremy Borash, JB.
30:19Welcome to another week of LFG.
30:21Here we go.
30:21It's sink or swim.
30:23The legends step back.
30:25The future greats step up.
30:27Let's get to the ring for action.
30:35Is this thing on?
30:36Testing.
30:36One, two.
30:37I can either have an equipment malfunction or a wardrobe malfunction.
30:43You talking about I'm a savage?
30:45Nah, maybe you have a shame.
30:46I ain't about to have it.
30:47The color contest is scheduled for one fall.
30:52Introducing first, representing Team McCool, Hanina Bui-Defa.
30:59Karina, you did a whole lot of talking last season.
31:09And I stayed quiet.
31:11And I still walked right past you in the semifinals to Madison Square Garden.
31:15So let's run it back.
31:17You run your mouth.
31:18And I'll let my game do the talking.
31:21And this season, it's got a lot to say.
31:23And when you take a look at these two, I mean, Xena's always smiling.
31:53Always the light.
31:54Always energetic.
31:55It's infectious.
31:56With Pete Nassi's around, she's snarling.
31:58She's mean.
31:58Well, as you see, trying to get the upper hand.
32:00These two are truly polar opposites.
32:03Well, they certainly are.
32:04But if you take a look at the fact that they have something in common,
32:06that's that they made it all the way to the semifinals of season one
32:08and battled against each other in a hard-fought victory for Xena Sterling.
32:13Now what's going to happen?
32:14They're a little bit wiser.
32:16They're a little bit more knowledgeable about what to do in the ring.
32:18And under the tutelage of Michelle McCool and Bubba Rae Dudley,
32:22these two are looking to step up and step out.
32:26I didn't talk to them at all.
32:27Me neither.
32:28I know.
32:29And it's interesting being kind of the same size.
32:31I mean, Panina's a little bigger, a little strong, athletic.
32:35Going back to last year, I mean, that's had to have lived.
32:39That moment, that match, an opportunity at the finals.
32:43Pete Nassi didn't get it.
32:44She's got to be remembering that in this matchup.
32:46Well, she's certainly looking to change the fortunes
32:48and reverse of what happened last season and end up in that finals.
32:58Sink or swim.
32:59The legends step back.
33:00The future greats step up.
33:02It's a pivotal episode because the trust has been put
33:04in these future greats by the legends.
33:07And do you think there's a little bit more weighing on this match for these two
33:10because we were here in season one.
33:12We're back here in season two.
33:13This isn't as if it's the first day on the job
33:16for either of these two individuals.
33:18Well, that only means expectations have been raised.
33:20These two individuals specifically are going to step up
33:23and possibly make it all the way to the finals here in season two of LFG.
33:26Look at all the black and blue.
33:27And look at the boys on the tricep.
33:28Yeah.
33:29Yeah.
33:29Yeah.
33:31That's insane.
33:33The legs, the tricep.
33:34The chest.
33:35It's just so impressive for both these women.
33:37Also, the men here on LFG.
33:39Just how quickly they've learned in such few matches.
33:42I mean, still the early stages of their very, very young careers.
33:47Oh!
33:51Hey, look.
33:52We can say rookies, but that was a vet move.
33:54At first, you don't succeed.
33:56Chop your opponent down at the knees.
33:57This girl has impressed me because she goes home and she does homework.
34:02She watches wrestling.
34:04Oh!
34:05Ooh!
34:07Wow!
34:07What a spear by Panina!
34:09Into another cover.
34:10Oh, wow!
34:10She said, I got nothing to eat at.
34:15Panina, I think, wants to send a message,
34:18not only to the rest of the locker room,
34:20but also wants to put a big smile on her coach's face.
34:24That being Michelle McCool.
34:25And look, let's take this a step further.
34:27I mean, how impressive is it from your side of things,
34:30someone who is a legend,
34:31been around all different promotions in the game,
34:33to see the growth this fast
34:35from some of these athletes that have come in
34:37to the Performance Center.
34:39Certainly in the course of time,
34:40I've been here in the Performance Center
34:41and seen so many great athletes walk through these doors.
34:44It's the coaching that does it.
34:46It's the coaching and that guidance
34:47that gets them to the next level.
34:50Get in there, Zeta.
34:51Yeah!
34:52You lay it in!
34:52Go!
34:54Go!
34:54Go!
34:55Go!
34:56Go!
34:56Go!
34:56Go!
34:57Go!
34:58Zeta under the tutelage of Bubba Ray.
34:59And look, Bubba is one of those coaches
35:01that keeps his students at an arm length,
35:04wants them to earn everything.
35:06And Zeta looking to earn a big victory
35:09here this week on LFG.
35:11Come on.
35:11Now let's pay it off.
35:13The name Future Greats
35:14and the legends and future greats of this program
35:16is not a guarantee.
35:18Well, this time,
35:18take a look at a massive body slam.
35:21Zeta Sterling delivers.
35:24What a stomp.
35:26I'm still stunned that Zeta had first show succeed
35:29into the cover, hook of the leg,
35:31and able to pick up the victory.
35:34Shocking.
35:34They did good!
35:35Here's from the winner,
35:37Zeta Sterling!
35:40She's as shocked as we are.
35:41She was able to body slam.
35:43He nasty.
35:45Sink or swim.
35:47That's what they did.
35:48Let's take a look at what just happened.
35:50How Zeta Sterling finished up.
35:51Panina to Lepa in this matchup.
35:54Body slam and then boom.
35:55Stomp and Panina taking out a victory.
36:01Did they sink?
36:02Did they swim?
36:03Bubba Ray, Michelle McCool,
36:06The Undertaker, and Booker T.
36:08We will hear their thoughts
36:09coming up in this very special edition.
36:13Sink or swim
36:14on legends and future greats.
36:16Guys, before we get started,
36:24just want to say that Serena
36:25is currently seeking medical attention.
36:28We hope to have an update on her later on.
36:31Now today,
36:33it was sink or swim.
36:35The legends took a step back
36:37and they put their trust in you,
36:40the rookies.
36:41You guys know how we do it.
36:43One point, best female.
36:44One point will be awarded to the best man.
36:46male here today.
36:48Let's start with the males.
36:50And I'm going to start with you,
36:51Bubba Ray.
36:54Gents, good job.
36:56Trill, great athleticism, good stuff.
36:59Anthony and Harlem,
37:01good hard-hitting match,
37:03back and forth.
37:04I liked it.
37:06Shiloh, I'm going with you.
37:08You did a good job leading today.
37:10You brought Trill to his best match.
37:12I thought you were the ring general.
37:13My vote goes to Shiloh.
37:15Okay.
37:15I kind of threw a wrench in my vote,
37:18but at the end of the day,
37:20everybody took a step forward,
37:21which is what we want to do.
37:23My vote's for Anthony Luke.
37:26My expectations for Shiloh
37:28are extremely high.
37:29I have to push him.
37:32Booker T.
37:32I mean, all the guys did good,
37:35and I said it earlier.
37:36When Anthony and Harlem finished that match,
37:39I said it was so close,
37:40it was hard for me to call.
37:42I didn't know who the leader was.
37:43I didn't know who the follower was.
37:45I just know it was a good match.
37:47And in that case,
37:48I got to pick my guy.
37:51I got to go to Harlem.
37:52Michelle McCool,
37:54you are the tiebreaker here.
38:01Cash.
38:02Yes, good job by all.
38:03Shiloh, you do continue to step up,
38:05and I think you gave Trill his best match,
38:08but Trill, you stepped up as well,
38:09gave yourself your best match.
38:11Kudos.
38:12For me, it does come down to Anthony in Harlem.
38:14Anthony, I think you made them forget about The Rock,
38:17and that's what we wanted.
38:18That was our goal.
38:19Forget about The Rock and be more aggressive.
38:21You did that,
38:22and for that reason,
38:23my point tonight goes to my man, Anthony Luke.
38:26Okay.
38:27I got the point this week.
38:28I was excited.
38:29I'm the best guy here.
38:31So that is one point for Team McCool.
38:35And now, for the women.
38:38Undertaker.
38:40Bailey, unfortunately,
38:42things like that happen.
38:44I know you two are friends.
38:45You can't feel responsible for anything.
38:49Are you okay?
38:50Like,
38:51it's part of the game.
38:54I have to just keep my head held high
38:56and, you know,
38:56keep the fire that I still have
38:58and to just, you know,
38:59show that I deserve to be here.
39:01Zena,
39:02last season,
39:04you came out of nowhere.
39:07You grew so fast,
39:10and then you got yourself into the finals.
39:12It could have been a flip of the coin.
39:14Who wins that?
39:16I don't know that it's necessarily fair to you.
39:19I'm still looking for that kind of growth out of you.
39:21And I don't necessarily know that I've seen it this year.
39:25Season one,
39:26I set the bar very high for myself.
39:28So now they expect a lot more from me.
39:30Panina,
39:31you continue to grow.
39:33You continue to get more comfortable,
39:34and the more comfortable you get,
39:36the more aggression that comes out.
39:38My vote,
39:39Panina.
39:41Zena,
39:42yes.
39:42Like you said,
39:43it's not necessarily fair.
39:44It's the same boat that Anthony and Shiloh are in, right?
39:46They do expect more out of y'all.
39:48I understand where all the legends are coming from,
39:51but it is a little bit frustrating.
39:54Great match from both of y'all.
39:55The fire that you showed,
39:56Panina.
39:56Keep that up.
39:57I love every second of it.
39:59Just how you continue to grow.
40:00It's very impressive.
40:01And I think we're only beginning,
40:02and for that reason,
40:03my vote goes to Panina.
40:06Booker T.
40:07Of course,
40:08it comes down to Zena and Panina.
40:13And I kind of agree,
40:14you know,
40:14as far as Zena.
40:18My point goes to Panina.
40:21You definitely have to get your stride.
40:24That's three votes for Panina.
40:26That means Team McCool with both points.
40:30Michelle,
40:32you are now in the lead
40:33with four points.
40:37Bubba Ray,
40:39what are your thoughts?
40:43My thoughts are,
40:45it's obvious
40:47what's going on right now.
40:50And I thought I saw glimpses of it,
40:53but now it's really,
40:54really obvious.
41:00This seems like
41:02one big conspiracy here.
41:07Because that's the frontrunner,
41:09and we all know it.
41:12She's the one to beat,
41:14and listening to every single one of you
41:16talk about her,
41:18it's like,
41:18Zena, you're so good,
41:19you're so good,
41:20you're so good,
41:20but you're too good.
41:24Come here.
41:24Not only do they have it out for you,
41:30but they have it out for you.
41:34That's the third time
41:36they voted the same way.
41:40What, really?
41:42Yeah, I would walk off too.
41:44That's laughable.
41:49If I don't come out on top of Michelle,
41:51then I'm not doing my job.
41:52This is my dream,
41:56as everyone knows from season one.
41:58After I got choked unconscious,
41:59I was really uncertain
42:01whether I was going to be able
42:02to return to wrestling or not.
42:04Whoa!
