Last week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2026/07/wwe-lfg-7122026-season-3-episode-12.html
Tristan Angels talks to Johnny Russo. Russo says it's time to come up with a new name for him. TA says he likes his name but he can't wrestle with it. Russo tells him to put together some first and last names, mix them up and see what he likes the best. Russo says they will find names they like then take it to legal. TA says he wrote the name he liked on his car and made some gear with the name on it. Russo tells him that's a risk and says fingers crossed for his name.
Matt Bloom, Booker T, Natalya and Bubba Ray talk. Booker has Harley Riggins vs Tate Wilder. Bloom says Tate does a lot and he doesn't want him to get bored with the basics. Bloom says he's an adrenaline junkie and Booker says there's a difference between being that and a flipper. Natalya has Masyn Holiday vs Nikkita Lyons. Bloom says he has high hopes for Masyn. He says he doesn't think she knows how to listen to the crowd. Bloom says Lyons is a star and wants her to put equity in her offense. Nat wants to see more conviction in Lyons' offense. Bubba has Nathan Cranton vs Jaime Garcia. Bloom wants NC to work on being a heel and wants JG to work on how to sell. Bloom says the Cole/Garcia match wasn't good and Bubba says it crumbled.
Booker T talks to Harley Riggins and Tate Wilder. HR wants to give him a wet willie and be a high school bully. Tate says Booker shut it down and Booker says it's a bunch of sh!t. HR tries to do the wet willie spot and Booker says no.
Harley Riggins vs Tate Wilder
We are at the Evolve arena for this. They lock up and Tate side headlock takeovers him. HR side headlocks him then shoulders him over. Tate dropkicks him and armdrags him. Tate top wristlocks him. HR knees Tate in the gut in the corner. HR kicks him in the back and chest.
Tate slips out of a slam and rolls him up. HR lariats him for 2. HR pounds on him. Tate swinging neckbreakers him. Tate goes up top and HR superplexes him down for 2. Tate suplexes him. Tate hits a top rope moonsault and pins him.
Thoughts: I'm sure this was probably clipped as it wasn't long. What we got was acceptable but it was too brief.
Booker tells them not to think about moves after and says it's about doing little things. Booker says they did a good job. Tate says he could have done more with the selling. Bloom says this is all about characters with them and says the truest characters are the real life ones.
Natalya talks to Nikkita Lyons and Masyn Holiday. Nat says she loves NL and says she has a positive attitude. NL says she worked Nat in NXT and it was fun. Masyn says she loves NL. Nat wants NL to be rough on her to start and wants them to shove each other. Masyn says Nat showed them new holds and techniques. Nat says she likes getting hands on in the ring. Nat says Masyn has a great attitude. NL says Nat isn't afraid to get in your face and she loves it. NL says Nat shows you what she wants instead of telling you.
Nikkita Lyons vs Masyn Holiday
Masyn is already long gone from WWE.
NL backs her up on the ropes and faceshoves her. Mas shoves her back then armdrags her twice. Mas dropkicks her out. NL hits Mas outside then hits shots to the gut. NL hits corner spears. NL snapmares her and stands on her. NL butt drops her.
NL chinlocks her. Mas ankle locks her. NL forearms her down and hits mounted forearms for 2. NL cobra twists her. They double clothesline each other. They trade forearms and punches. NL hits corner spears. Mas backrolls her and elbows her over.
Mas flying shoulders her. Natalya says she's not buying it. NL corner spears Mas and rolls her. Both go for pin attempts. NL buzzsaw kicks her for 2. Mas then cradles her and pins her.
Thoughts: It wasn't anything special. Masyn needed a better comeback and better offense. NL was the better wrestler here.
Masyn Holiday is on the ground after the match. NL joins her. They then get up. NL says wrestling cardio is hard. Nat says it's hard too and says 6 minutes in the ring is the same as a 45 min run. Nat says the match structure was fine and says Masyn needs a better comeback. She says Masyn needs to do more matches to learn better. Bloom says both girls looked tired and it affected the match. Bloom says it's not easy, but you gotta do your part and get in shape.
Bubba talks to Jaime Garcia and Nathan Cranton. He says JG didn't have a good week 2 weeks ago. Bubba tells JG to live in the moment and not worry about spots and moves. They want to tell the story of NC working JG's arm. Bubba yells at JG's selling and tries to explain selling to him.
Nathan Cranton vs Jaime Garcia
JG is on the buckles and NC throws him down. NC hits mounted shots on him and running knees him. NC stomps on him and the ref separates them. The bell rings and NC lariats JG. JG boots him out of the corner then claymore kicks him.
NC back elbows him and JG hits a corner spear. JG overhead throws him. JG's arm is pulled over the top rope on the exposed metal (NC pulled the pad off). NC pushes JG off the apron and into the commentary table.
JG rolls up NC for 2. NC leg kicks him and drops him arm first on the top rope. NC kneedrops and kicks the arm. NC faceshoves JG and JG hits shots to the body. JG misses a dropkick then hits one.
JG hits flying lariats on NC then hiptosses him over the top. JG spaceman plancha's him outside. JG top rope dropkicks him in the back for 2. JG is up top, NC knocks the ropes out under him and JG does down. NC does a curbstomp with the knee and pins him.
Thoughts: I didn't love it. NC worked the arm early and then stopped. JG didn't sell that well as usual.
Bubba asks NC and JG how they thought they did. Bubba says they did a great and he says he enjoyed the match. We see TJP shaking hands with them.
JG says he wants to be on NXT and plays with the boom mic. NC says he's happy with the match. Johnny Russo gives him an envelope with his name. NC is pleased with it but doesn't say what it is. We then see him drive his car which says, "Tristan Angels" on it. He says it's the most important name in WWE history through a megaphone. He says he feels like he is angelic and wanted his name to reflect it.
Overall thoughts: It was the usual show. The coaches helped set up the match, the wrestlers performed it then they critiqued them on it after. Riggins/Tate was acceptable. Lyons/Masyn wasn't that good and neither was the main event. There was nothing you really needed to see here and I'd give it a 4 out of 10. It was a little below average.
