Last week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2026/06/wwe-lfg-6142026-season-3-episode-8.html

The coaches of Matt Bloom, Terry Taylor, Bubba Ray Dudley and Booker T talk. Booker T has Braxton Cole vs Harlem Lewis tonight. Bloom says Harlem Lewis could be the bad@ss babyface tonight.

Thoughts: It was short and mostly average. They didn't botch anything and the finish was alright. Cole could have shown more personality.

Bloom says Cole needs to show more personality and says he's not putting all of himself into it. Cole says Bloom wants him to have more identity. Bloom says this should be the most important thing to him. Cole says he needs to figure out who he wants to be. Bloom says Lewis did a good job.
Zena Sterling and Sirena Linton both talk. Sirena says it's the first time they have wrestled. Terry Taylor says Sirena needs to make sure we don't like her. Terry says they need to find something that looks unique and different. Terry wants to work a body part and Zena says Terry is adamant about this. Terry then claps his hands and says, "hot dog".

Zena flying lariats her. Zena hits her in the gut and face. Zena hits chops then she hits lariats. Zena backdrops her down then running back splashes her. Zena tilt-a-whirl side slams her and pins her.
Thoughts: It was a simple match. Sirena had some twists on some basic moves which was something different. Zena was the face and got a streak going before she won. What we got was fine.
Terry Taylor tells Sirena she did good. He says everything was mechanically great. Terry says they rushed. Terry wanted them to use the bodyscissors more and wanted them to sell more so Zena seems like she's in more jeopardy. Terry says it doesn't undo how good it was though.
Bloom says he enjoyed the match and says they are getting better each week. Zena says he told them the same thing Terry did.

Thoughts: It was a good tag here. They really made the most of their time, they got some classic tag spots in and the finish went well. This couldn't have gone much better than it did.
Shawn tells the wrestlers to do something on offense when they shoot someone in. Garcia says it's the first time he talked to Shawn. Bubba says they did well. Bubba liked JG's spaceman plancha and thought the hot tag spot worked. Bubba tells him to look large in the ring and not small so everyone can see him.
JG says him and Blade are learning English, Spanish and tag wrestling. Eli says him and AC lean off each other and make for a great match. AC says the sky is the limit.
Overall thoughts: It was the usual LFG. The wrestlers were given the play for their matches, they did them and they got reviewed after. The main was the best match on here. They really need to make sure they don't fire people next time around when they are featuring them on the show because it makes them all look like liars and fools. It was an easy watch, just there's nothing must see here.
