Let's Go! - LFG recap for July 5, 2026

We see footage of Sirena Linton at her first NXT live event loop. Sirena is more confident in her ability and excited for the future after taking part in it and hearing the crowd react.

Matt Bloom delegates the match for this week. Kevin Owens gets PJ Vasa vs. Sirena Linton, with Sirena being the face in the match. Bubba Ray Dudley gets Braxton Cole and Jaime Garcia, and Matt Bloom wants more out of Braxton's book gimmick. Booker T gets Apollo Crews and Elijah Holyfield vs. Hank Walker and Tank Ledger. Matt Bloom wants Elijah to work with an established tag team in NXT.

PJ Vasa feels that Sirena Linton could be a big star one day, and Sirena feels that PJ is "a phenomenal performer" and that she needs to match her energy. Kevin Owens meets with the both of them and gives them ideas for the match.

Sirena Linton beats PJ Vasa. During the match, Kevin Owens approves of the execution, but does not see a lot of emotion.

Bubba Ray Dudley meets with Braxton Cole and Jaime Garcia. Bubba comes up with the scenario where the babyface sees the book coming and the heel gets frustrated, as well as a cutoff spot. Jaime Garcia comes up with the scenario for seeing the book coming.

Before the next match, Braxton Cole cuts a promo. Braxton introduces himself as "the Ph.D. of WWE" before reading a passage from "Privilege Without Apologies" by Wendell Kendington. It is not long before he is interrupted by Jaime Garcia's entrance.

Jaime Garcia beats Braxton Cole. During the match, Braxton Cole tries to use the book as a weapon, but Jaime Garcia dropkicks him and knocks the book out of his hands - and out of its slipcover - to get the win. After the match, Bubba Ray Dudley wants Braxton to work on his arrogance as well as his ability to show frustration. He also does not want Jaime Garcia to get nervous in case he does not hear a reaction.

Booker T meets with Apollo Crews, Elijah Holyfield, Hank Walker and Tank Ledger. The aim of their match is to introduce Apollo Crews and Elijah Holyfield as a tag team and getting Elijah over in the match. Elijah notes how quickly he has gone from learning how to forward roll from Hank and Tank in the tryouts to being in a match with them. Booker T introduces Hank Walker and Elijah Holyfield to the process of "getting light" by lifting his right toe from the mat to the air while being picked up for a scoop slam.

Hank Walker and Tank Ledger beat Apollo Crews and Elijah Holyfield after Holyfield knocks out Hank, but not Tank, who is the legal man for his team. After the match, Elijah and Apollo are congratulated by Booker T, who says that Elijah was able to perform and "pass the test," as is Hank and Tank. Hank and Tank approve of Elijah's performance.
