WWE LFG Results (Season 2, Episode 6)

First Match: Summer Sorrell vs. Dani Sekelsky

The legends wanted Dani Sekelsky to get out of her comfort zone as a cheerleading babyface by both working heel and donning a luchador mask. They believed that would force her to use more body language to sell the match rather than relying on facial expressions. Summer Sorrell has an admitted fear of public speaking, so the legends had her work as the face and cut a promo prior to their match.

Sorrell was the first to enter. She grabbed a microphone after getting into the ring and told her story about getting to the Performance Center.

Sorrell talked about her self-doubts, her excitement working in front of the live crowd the week before, and the motivation she receives every week from both her coach, Michelle McCool, and her mother, who was in the crowd for the match. She finished the emotional promo talking about her mother’s battle with cancer, and, through tears, how excited she was to have her there to see her accomplish this dream.

Sekelsky came to the ring, announced by her lucha libre name, Shooting Star. The match started with two quick pin attempts by Sorrell.

After dodging a clothesline, Sekelsky went low for a chop block to Sorrell’s left knee, which she would continue to focus on with numerous kicks and submission holds. Sekelsky would drag Sorrell to the corner where she slammed her knee into the ring post.

As Sorrell recovered, Sekelsky went over to Sorrell’s mother. She took her water bottle, drank from it, and threw it back on her. In retaliation, Sorrell threw Sekelsky into the barricade.

As Sorrell went back into the ring, the cameras caught Sekelsky sneakily putting an object into the forehead of her mask. She entered the ring, dodging two clotheslines before knocking out Sorrell with a flying headbutt. She pinned the unconscious Sorrell for the victory.

The two women started the episode strong with a well-performed match. Sorrell showed vulnerability with her pre-match promo, winning over the crowd. Sekelsky was the star, playing the heel well with her interactions with Sorrell’s mother and use of cheating tactics to win.

Second Match: Chris Island vs. BJ Ray

The legends kept the changes simple for Chris Island and BJ Ray. Island embraced being a heel, and Ray worked the match as the face. Island came out in MMA gear, while Ray embraced the crowd, even jumping onto the top of the barricade while his name was announced.

As Ray made it into the ring and ran the ropes as part of his entrance, Island attacked with a surprise and hard-hitting clothesline to begin the match. Island would send Ray into multiple corners before hitting him with a sidewalk slam.

Island would then try to hit Ray with a suplex, but Ray would reverse with a delayed suplex of his own. Ray would run at Island, who caught him and hung him up on the top rope, leading to another clothesline.

As Ray got back to his feet, he would block a punch attempt by Island and hit him with his own punches, albeit not cleanly. He would slow the match down with multiple shoulder tackles and a bulldog off the rope.

Ray then hit Island with a very slow, very awkward elbow drop where Ray ran the ropes on all four sides of the ring. As Ray turned away to celebrate the elbow drop, Island would hit him with a surprise roll-up for the win.

The match was clunky for both wrestlers. Island started solid with the surprise attack at the beginning, but the remainder of the match did not make him look strong. Even on the roll-up victory, he forgot to do the classic heel move and hold the tights.

Ray has all of the charisma in the world, but he still needs to work on his moves and pace in the ring. Whenever he was in control, the match seemed to move the slowest.

Third Match: Haze Jameson vs. Penina Tuilaepa

Penina Tuilaepa has gained the nickname “P-Nasty” throughout the first two seasons of LFG. For this match, the legends coined a new nickname for her babyface alter ego: “P-Nicety.” Haze Jameson was given an oddly specific goal by Bubba Ray Dudley for the episode: Go heel and dye her hair.

Jameson surprised all of the judges, Dudley included, when she appeared with pink hair during her entrance. They were equally as shocked when Tuilaepa came out with two bows in her hair and glittery makeup on her face.

Jameson embraced her heel persona by insulting the crowd and Tuilaepa as the bell rang. When Tuilaepa charged at her, Jameson rolled out of the ring. She walked around the ring, complaining about the matchup to anyone willing to listen.

She took nearly the whole 10 count to get back in the ring. As Tuilaepa charged at her again, she once more rolled out of the ring. Before being able to walk away, Tuilaepa grabbed her hair and dragged her back in.

Tuilaepa picked Jameson up for a bodyslam. She began climbing the ropes, signifying a moonsault attempt. Before she could, Jameson hit her with a low blow, knocking her from the top rope.

Jameson hit Tuilaepa with multiple corner elbows before stopping and making fun of Tuilaepa for her bows. This upset Tuilaepa, leading to her shoving Jameson.

Jameson bailed out of the ring again, but Tuilaepa followed this time. Jameson hopped back in the ring and hit the ropes, but she was hit with a spear by Tuilaepa, leading to a three-count and victory.

Both wrestlers understood the assignment. Tuilaepa played the babyface perfectly. Jameson relied too much on her talking and not enough on her wrestling; however, she came off very well as a funny, cowardly heel.

Main Event: Elijah Holyfield vs. Drake Morreaux

There was no set heel or babyface for Elijah Holyfield and Drake Morreaux’s match. The legends needed Holyfield to amplify his personality to the point where people stopped seeing him as just Evander Holyfield’s son. Morreaux’s goal was to ramp up his aggressiveness.

The match was intense and hard-hitting from the beginning. After the lockup was pushed into the corner, Holyfield began landing body shots on Morreaux. He was pulled off by the referee, but he broke away and continued again.

He was pulled away a second time, this time resulting in Holyfield trying to intimidate the referee with a stern look. Morreaux would sneak up from behind and roll up Holyfield for the win.

Despite the short match, the action was not over. The two wrestlers continued brawling, leading to officials pouring out of the back to break them up. They kept Morreaux in the ring while pulling Holyfield to the outside.

Morreaux broke away and climbed to the top rope. He leaped onto the officials holding Holyfield, allowing the two to continue fighting.

The intensity became too much for the two of them when they returned to the locker room. Both of them began shoot fighting before being separated for good.

The short match was perfect to set up the aftermath. Holyfield and Morreaux showed new levels of intensity that neither had shown to that point. Both Undertaker and Dudley stressed to each of them the importance of staying professional when back behind the curtain, but approved of the leaps their characters made.

Final Results

For the females, Tuilaepa received three votes to earn a point for Team McCool. For the males, it was Morreaux who received two votes and a point for Team Undertaker.
