WWE LFG 7/13/2025 Season 2, Episode 4

Last week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2025/07/wwe-lfg-762025-season-2-episode-3.html

Next week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2025/07/wwe-lfg-7202025-season-2-episode-5.html

I believe this partially aired against WWE Evolution 2025.

Shawn Michaels greets the wrestlers and coaches. He says we will find our inner heels and babyface. He says Charlotte Flair is today's guest.

Flair said she'd like to tell everyone they will make it but they won't. She says half may not even make it. She says she was part of the first class here and her group had a chip on their shoulder. She said they wanted to make sure the roster members were nervous for thier jobs. Flair says she has been good and bad and you have to go with who you believe you are. Flair says the best characters are those who are authentic.She says they will cheer or boo if you are authentic to who you are. She says to show who you are without telling her who you are.

Taker talks to his team. He says they gotta develop their characters. Booker tells his team they will remember you forever if you show them what's inside of you. Bubba says you gotta capture their attention any way you can.

Flair has the wrestlers do promos for her. Zena, Shiloh, Haze do promos. They put over Haze's promo but I didn't think it worked. Tatyanna does a promo and Flair says she wants her to be a bad b!tch. Sirena and harlem do promos next. Trill says he's what everyone wants to be and he says he's not keeping it real, he's keeping it trill. BJ says he's the king of the WWE and said he wrote a song for Flair. He then sings and Booker shakes his head while the others laugh. Flair says she needs to see how it translates in the ring.

Taker wants Harlem vs Shiloh tonight and they agree. Flair says BJ Ray is a politician and McCool offers to put Trill against him. Bubba picks Tatyanna vs Zena for tonight. Booker wants Sirena in the main vs Haze. Bubba says Haze's party girl character pops. Booker says Sirena will have to a general in it.

Harlem said Shiloh failed last year to win LFG and will fail again. He says he doesn't care about Shiloh and says he's about to be locked in the cage with the beast.

Booker says Harlem will be the guy to beat.

Harlem Lewis vs Shiloh Hill

They lock up. HL knees him in the gut and clubs him. Hill slams him for 2. HL hits shots on Hill in the corner then stomp flurries him. Hill trips him and pounds on him. Hill corner spears him and low running shoulders him while he's seated.

HL's face is dropped on the buckles then HL lariats him. HL backdrops him for 2. They double clothesline each other then slap each other. They each hit forearms and punches. Hill hits lariats and forearms. Hill backdrop lifts him into a neckbreaker.

Hill double underhook twisting drops him and wins.

Thoughts: I liked it and it was one of the better LFG matches yet. It was edited some but I don't know how much. It was hard hitting with lots of energy and clobbering. It was exactly what you would want and expect out of these two and it was a great pick for a matchup.

Hill says there will be emotions and they both want it and want to get it. Lewis says their next match will be better and he thinks he will see him in the final. Hill says Harlem had a lot of gas but if you play with gas, you get burnt. He says he's the real big dog and is barking up everyone's tree and coming for the contract. 

Trill says BJ will find out how he operates tonight.

Trill London vs BJ Ray

Bubba says if Flair plays her card right, she can be the next Mrs. BJ Ray.

Trill hits armdrags on BJ to start then armlocks him. BJ knees him in the gut and clubs his back. Trill hits a nice dropkick and BJ goes out. BJ hits on Flair mid-match. Trill drops him with a punch and BJ rams him into the apron edge. Trill's head is banged off the apron and steps.

BJ hits mounted forearms on him. BJ catches a leapfrog and stun guns him. BJ sleepers him. Trill jawbreakers him then flying forearms him. Trill does a nice leapfrog and pulls him down by his collar. Trill basement dropkicks him.

Trill leg lariats him in the corner. Trill then misses a whisper in the wind off the top. BJ rolls him up and pulls the tights to win.

Thoughts: I liked it. Trill looked good with his flying and unconventional work and BJ was okay as the heel against him.

BJ says he wishes the best for Trill but will cheat and do what he has to do. Trill said he likes competing and says he wants people to know he will show up every single time. 

Zena says she's the only one who knows what they are doing in the ring. She says it can be dangerous if only one person knows what is going on.

Zena Sterling vs Tatyanna Dumas

TD side headlocks her and shoulders her over. TD side headlocks her. TD stomps on her and Bubba complains about TD's boots not being tied. He says that's a sign of nervousness that could hurt them. TD cranks Zena's head. Zena rolls her over with her legs. They double clothesline each other and both go down.

Zena hits a punch and some lariats. Zena backdrops her for 2. Zena falls off the 2nd rope and I think TD was supposed to move it. TD running forearms her and pins her.

Thoughts:
The coaches crapped all over it and there was a lot of editing so it was hard to judge this properly. What we got didn't look that great though. Zena had nice fiery comebacks though.

Zena says it's frustrating to wrestle someone who isn't putting in the effort. We go to the back and Dumas is injured. She says it was deliberate. 

Sirena says she's the most deserving girl in the competition. She says let's get crazy and she can get psycho. She says it's about to get spicy.

Sirena Linton vs Haze Jameson

This is in front of a real crowd and is the only match with a real crowd tonight.

SL yells at her when Haze offers a handshake. She then spits in her had and throws her back. SL bangs Haze's head off the mat. Haze armdrags her twice and armlocks her. Haze rolls her up for 2 then armdrags her.

SL boots her off her corner charge. SL yanks her leg for 2. SL does an indian deathlock variation. Haze ropebreaks. Haze leg gives out when she gets thrown. Haze rolls her up for 2.

Haze lariats her over and 2nd rope crossbodies her for 2. SL then pins her with her feet on the ropes at the 2 count.

Thoughts:
It wasn't the best match but SL mostly worked the leg here and did okay as the heel. Haze sold a lot here but she's kind of a slower and weaker girl.

Bubba said she had a good outing for someone who only had their 2nd match. Bubba says Haze's level of physicality isn't where it needs to be. Sirena says she has put every girl on notice and says to consider this a final warning. Booker says Sirena stepped up and is laser focused.

We are told Tatyanna is getting medical attention. Taker says some people have dialed in and realized what's at stake here.

Flair says Zena had some fiery babyface moments but gives Sirena a point. Flair says all four men have something and says Trill is so likeable. Flair says she has BJ's number and he has the best promo. Flair gives Shiloh the point. Harlem says it wasn't his best showing but he knows why and BJ says it's BS.

Thoughts: I would give my point to Shiloh and Sirena here but we didn't have a lot of options on the women's side.

The standings are:

Team Booker has 3 points, Team Undertaker has 2 points, Team Bubba has 1 point and Team McCool has 0 points.

Harlem, Elijah and Shiloh lead the men with 1 point each. Sirena has 2 points and Dani has 1 point.

Next week will have us seeing how the various wrestlers use their size to their advantage.

Overall thoughts: The show continues to be better than last season's show was and is more wrestling focused. There's nothing you have to see here though as the matches are shorter, edited to some degree and more limited. Shiloh/Harlem was the easy match of the night as expected and it was a TV worthy match. It was an easy show to get through overall.
