About this episode

LuFisto and Jeff Lippman review a wrestling show with a focus on international talent and coaching insights.

In this week’s episode, LuFisto and Jeff Lippman break down a very “old-school LFG” show packed with international flavor. The coaches (Kevin Owens, Booker T, Bubba Ray, and Natalya) assign three matches, including a women’s bout between Kali Bright and Bayley Humphrey (working heel), Elijah Ali (Elio LaFleur / White Eagle) vs. Malik Blade, and a strong main event between Mark The Router and Elio LaFleur. The hosts praise the in-ring action, coaching insights, and character work while discussing improvements, booking perception vs. reality, and the challenges of reality-show stakes when real-life releases are already known. They call it the strongest episode of the season so far for its heavy focus on wrestling and international talent.
