WWE LFG just dropped its second episode, and things are already getting intense. The night kicked off with the first official match in WWE LFG history, featuring Anthony Luke & Tyra Mae Steele taking on Shiloh Hill & Dani Sekelsky. In a solid opener, Hill and Sekelsky pulled off the victory, setting the tone for the rest of the show.

After that, the moment everyone was waiting for—the official coach reveal. The 16 competitors now know exactly which WWE Hall of Famer will be leading them through this make-or-break journey toward a potential NXT contract. The legendary lineup includes The Undertaker, Booker T, Bubba Ray Dudley, and Mickie James, and they’re all ready to push their teams to the limit.

Team Undertaker consists of Bayley Humphrey, Elijah Holyfield, Tyra Mae Steele, and Shiloh Hill. Bubba Ray Dudley’s squad features Zena Sterling, Tatyanna Dumas, Drake Morreaux, and Brayden “BJ” Ray. Over on Team Booker T, Anthony Luke, Leigh Laurel, Jasper Troy, and Penina Tuilaepa are looking to soak in every bit of knowledge from the five-time WCW Champion. Mickie James is guiding Dani Sekelsky, Chris Island, Sirena Linton, and Troy Yearwood as they fight for their future.

The real drama kicked in when the coaches started working with the talent. The standout moment? Bubba Ray Dudley, aka Bully Ray, getting in BJ Ray’s face in a tense confrontation. The pressure is already on, and Bully made it clear that there’s no room for weak energy in his camp.

Then it was time for the LFG matches, and the action delivered. Zena Sterling scored a pinfall win over P Nasty, proving she’s here to make a statement. Chris Island picked up a victory over Jasper Troy and shut down any notion that Troy had to carry the match. Troy Yearwood secured a win over Shiloh Hill in a contest that got The Undertaker’s approval, with Booker T advising, “They need to work on the small things.” Bully Ray chimed in, stressing, “Emotion is everything when delivering moves.”

Tatyanna Dumas pulled off a roll-up win against Leigh Laurel in a match that had the crowd on their feet chanting “FIGHT AGAIN!” The Undertaker told both competitors, “You both have stars on your back.” Mickie James added, “They should both be really, really proud!” while Booker T called the match “right on the money,” especially considering it was Dumas’ first match ever. Bully Ray pointed out how the audience reaction spoke volumes about their performance.

Then came the voting. Booker T and Mickie James split the vote at one point each after casting their choices for Jasper Troy and Troy Yearwood. Meanwhile, Mickie, Undertaker, and Bully all agreed that Leigh Laurel deserved a vote.
