WWE LFG 5/31/2026 Season 3, Episode 6

Last week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2026/05/wwe-lfg-5242026-season-3-episode-5.html

We see Elio LaFleur arrive at the Performance Cetner. He says he's been training since he was 14 and is now here 10 years later. We see him practicing. He says he does stuff no one else does. He says things were hard in the beginning and says we will see stuff we haven't seen before. He says he hopes we enjoy it.

Matt Bloom, Owens, Bubba, Booker and Natalya talk. They ask how Kevin Owens did on commentary. Bloom offers Owens the chance to do commentary for 2 matches. Nat has Carlee Bright vs Bayley Humphrey. Bloom says he wants to see Bay take care of Carlee. Nat says she was impressed by Carlee. Elijah Holyfield vs Malik Blade is also happening. Blade is coming off an injury and is trying out a new character. Booker says Blade needs to show up tonight. Mike Derudder faces Elio Lefleur. Bloom says Shawn wants to see Elio. Bloom says he wants to see how Elio can express himself with a mask on. Bloom wants everyone to do a cheer and he can't make it happen.

Nat checks out Bayley Humphrey. Carlee says Bay is amazing and no one is built like her. She say she trusts Bay with her life. Nat wants Carlee to make some noise. Bay says Nat is fun to work with and can get you fired up. Carlee says Nat is the best. Nat tells them to show them who they are. 

Bayley Humphrey vs Carlee Bright

We are at the Evolve arena for this. Carlee is already fired while Bay is on NXT. Kevin Owens is on commentary for this.

Bay backs up CB in the corner and on the ropes on the lock up. CB says she pulled her hair and they shove each other. Bay shoulders her over. CB is swung by the hair. CB double knees Bay out of he corner, clips her and dropkicks her from behind. Bay drops CB gut first on the top rope.

We go to break and return. CB is thrown hard into the corner and goes down. CB hit shots to the gut and Bay knee's her in the gut. Bay torture racks her. CB hits shots to the gut then hits chops to escape. CB flying headscissors Bay into the buckles. CB 2nd rope moonsaults her for 2. CB standing moonsaults her for 2 then does it again. Bay picks her up while laying on the mat then backbreakers her. Bay does a powerbomb lift into a powerslam and pins her.

Thoughts: I liked what we got here. CB did some flying and was fine as a face and Bay used her power against her. I didn't agree with Carlee getting fired and this didn't change my mind. 

Nat says Bay was a mountain to climb and says Bay is scary when she screams. Nat says she thought it was so good. Carlee said it made her heart burst. She says she can't let the legends down.

Bloom says Carlee needs to make more noise on bumps and wants her to sell more. Bloom says less is more but he's proud of them.  

Booker T talks to Malik Blade and Elijah Holyfield. Booker says they have known each other for 4 years and they only had 2 convos. Blade says he's been here since 2021. Booker says Blade is still trying to figure things out. Blade says he'd hold advice from Booker forever. Elijah says he's happy to work with Booker again. Booker says to give the fans what they want to see and says the wrestlers are the puppet masters.

Apollo Crews, who is also now fired, is in the back watching the next match. He says Elijah Holyfield reminds him of himself.

Malik Blade vs Elijah Holyfield

This is in the Evolve arena. Blade has already been fired. Eli pushes him off the lock up. Blade hits chops. Eli blocks a hiptoss and hits a hard lariat. Eli corner spears him. Eli misses a corner spear. Blade standing dropkicks him. Eli samoan drops him. 

Eli hits shoulderblocks then powerslams him. Eli drops him with an uppercut and wins.

Thoughts: It was a shorter one. The finish was a ltitle sudden. Eli's offense looked good as usual. Blade didn't get that much in but chops and a dropkick. It wasn't anything too special due to the time limits.

Booker says it looked like Blade learned a lot. Booker says he needs Eli on the center line when doing powerslams. Eli says he loves Booker. Apollow Crews says Eli impressed him. 

Eli and Blade talk to Bloom. Bloom tells Eli to try stuff more. BLoom says he wants to see Blade get better at something and wants him to step out so he can be great. 

Kevin Owens talks to Elio LeFleur. Elio says it's hard to show emotion with his mask. Owens says Elio is reserved. Elio says Mike Derudder is his special opponent and they have a good connection. 

Bubba asks Mike where he's from. Mike says he's a 2nd gen wrestler and his dad is Patrick Derudder. He says he wants to be a WWE star, not a pro wrestler. Bubba asks if Mike has wrestled Elio before. Mike says Elio is the best partner for him.

Bubba makes Elio and Mike show what they have. Owens says he doesn't see the size difference between them that Elio sees. Bubba says perception is reality. Owens says he doesn't see the 35lbs between them. Mike wants to take off his shirt to show it. Mike says he takes this personally as he diets harder. Owens agrees. 

Bubba says they need to do what they do and live or die with what they came up with. Owens then talks to them in French. Bubba is surprised. Owens tells them to do it their way.  

The two wrestlers have their shirts off and Mike asks if we can see the size difference. Elio has to show his anger and Mike needs to show off.

Mike Derudder vs Elio Lafleur

I've actually seen these guys wrestle each other already prior to WWE. If they let them do their thing, it'll be a flippy indy spotfest. This is in the NXT arena.

They lock up and Mike puts him in the corner. Elio armdrags him then Mike flying headscissors him. Mike misses a corner charge and Elio 2nd rope diving headscissors him. Mike catches Elio's tope con hilo and slams him on the apron with it. 

Mike drops him with a forearm for 2. Mike facelocks him. Mike hits a hard lariat from the side. Elio tries to fight back and hits a flurry of shots. Elio springboard twisting crossbodies him. Elio step up enzugiri's him. Elio 2nd rope moonsaults him outside. 

Elio springboard flying knees him for 2. Elio springboards again, Mike catches him and Elio hurricanrana's him for 2. Mike flips him with a lariat. Mike suicide dives him outside. Mike top rope splashes him inside for 2. Elio hits a flurry of shots on the top rope. Elio headscissors drops him and pins him.

Thoughts: They didn't let them go all out here and they did about 1/3rd of what they usually do. That made for a better match though. Elio tried to show some fire as an underdog but that was about it story wise. It was definitely a moves based match but it was alright.

Shawn Michaels tells both that they did a good job. Shawn says they will move him to NXT right away and tells him the work will start now. Elio says this is what he wanted his whole life. Mike thanks him in English and says what we saw tonight is what they do everywhere in the world. Mike congratulates him and says he hopes he's next to go to NXT. We then see Elio sign an NXT contract. Bubba says they did an excellent job and have bright futures past NXT.  

Overall thoughts: It was another fairly straight to the point episode. The coaches told the wrestlers what to do, they tried to do it then they got evaluated after. It made sense and it's a simple show. Maybe it won't knock your socks off, but it's better than the worked shoots and games they did in the first two seasons. They really do have to stop featuring people they are going to fire though as it comes across weird. Mike and Elio got to do a bit more than wrestlers usually get to do more here and that was the standout bout on this one. You don't really need to see this one.
