Let's Go! - LFG recap for May 10, 2026

Matt Bloom has three matches lined up. Booker T gets a tag match betwee the team of PJ Vasa and Sirena Linton (the latter of whom has since been released) and the team of Layla Diggs and Masyn Holiday. Mason is the least experienced person in the match, but is catching on quick due to her athletic background. Bubba Ray gets Trill London (who has since been released) and Braxton Cole, the latter of whom Matt Bloom would like to be less of an overthinker and go by his instincts. Kevin Owens and Natalya gets to work with Tate Wilder and Anthony Luke, the latter of whom is now Kam Hendrix. The former is more of a risk taker, while Matt wants the latter to be less hokey in the ring. Their match will have a promo before the wrestling begins.

Bubba Ray Dudley meets with Braxton Cole, a former football defensive lineman who managed to get a tryout with WWE out of the blue after college and managed to make the cut. He also meets with Trill London, and tells him to do his own thing and make him forget about Jeff Hardy. Bubba wants Braxton to put his brain over and outsmart Trill in the ring and Trill to do what he does best in the ring.

Trill London beats Braxton Cole. During the match, Trill London performs what looks like a single arm flapjack but comes up short in the execution, which causes Booker T to believe that Trill London needs better balance. They also noticed that Trill got gassed near the end of the match. After the match, Bubba Ray says things went well, but Trill needs to do the moves that he does best and drop the moves that he can't do as well. Trill mentions that he always challenges himself by trying to do new moves until he gets them right, but takes the advice well. Matt Bloom says that Trill needs to find a move set that lets him stay healthy, or else he will not get booked. Braxton Cole noticed that he and Trill had the crowd in their hands but started losing them near the end, and chalks it up to the learning process.

We are introduced to Masyn Holiday, who talks about her athletic background and how she prefers to be part of a tag team match. Layla Diggs admits that she and Masyn are used to working heel, but says that working babyface will get easier from understanding and memorizing the flow of a wrestling match.

Layla Diggs and Masyn Holiday beat Sirena Linton and PJ Vasa. Bubba Ray and Booker T agree that the match went well. Afterwards, Booker tells all four women that they did a great job and that their match is a blueprint for what they all need to do going forward. Matt Bloom asks Layla and Masyn to make it more clear if they are heel or babyface. Sirena Linton comes out of the meeting with Matt Bloom that there is always something to improve on.

We are introduced to Tate Wilder, who has a background in extreme sports and rodeo. He has spent two years in the Performance Center, with the first fifteen months injured, which he feels fits him. We are re-introduced to Anthony Luke, now Kam Hendrix, who says that everything matters in presentation and that he has prepared himself to be Kam Hendrix. Natalya works with Kam Hendrix and tells him that he should be "the chandelier in the house." Kevin Owens works with Tate Wilder regarding a pre-match promo, and Tate Wilder gets inspired. Owens sees Wilder as "level-headed."

Before the next match, Tate Wilder introduces himself and says that while there are a lot of talented people in the locker room, he is willing to take the crazy risk and jump off the cliff to see if he can survive. He says that he acts first and thinks second, and while he makes mistakes, he is ready to make them and he is still standing. He says that to make a name for one's self, you have to call out the baddest, and he calls out Kam Hendrix to show that it is not showtime and that it is his time. Kam Hendrix shows up and says LFG is his show and that he has been watching Wilder's come-up, then says that Tate Wilder is foolish to call him out as he is going to succeed where Wilder will fail. It is noticed by both Natalya and the commentary team that Kam Hendrix is at a loss at points during his promo.

Kam Hendrix beats Tate Wilder. After the match, Hendrix says that tonight was not his best performance. Owens tells Wilder that his promo was , but Hendrix pie-facing him at the end of the match is brought up. Hendrix says that he tripped, and that it will be very evident in the match footage. Afterwards, Hendrix says that he is disappointed with himself and that this could be his last chance. Matt Bloom says that Kam Hendrix should take a step back and see how he can get better.

Let's Go! - LFG recap for April 26, 2026

Shawn Michaels thanks Bubba Ray Dudley and Booker T for returning for LFG. With The Undertaker being part of AAA creative, Shawn Michaels needs athletes ready for NXT, and while he wants to do away with the scoring system, he does want others to help him, such as trainer and head coach Matt Bloom, who is also in the room. He says that with everything going on, he needs people in the pipeline at all times.

We are introduced to trainer and head coach Matt Bloom, and talks about his time in WWE as Prince Albert, A-Train, and Lord Tensai. We are then introduced to Kevin Owens, who is hoping to reach the next generation of WWE Superstars as he recovers from injury. Owens has been in the business for 25 years and professional wrestling is all he has ever done. He is glad to be around people after being out for eight to nine months. We are also introduced to Natalya, who is aware of the machine that WWE is and is also hoping to pass on her knowledge as well. We hear from Elijah Holyfield, who is back from injury. We also hear from Harlem Lewis, who was runner up in Season 2. For him, it is not just about winning; he is here to be better than all the rest.

After the match, Booker T wants Kali Armstrong to think like she did in the match in future matches. Bubba Ray likes the physicality from both women, even though they could have sold moves a little more appropriately. He also reminds Nikkita not to do something that could take the eyes off of her opponent during entrances.

Before the next match, Booker T and Bubba Ray Dudley get frustrated with Keanu Carver, and Carver gets frustrated in turn. We learn more about Keanu Carver, such as how he got in a fight with his college football coach, wisely decided that he would not make it to professional football, and then became an Uber Eats driver before people asked him what he was even doing. This led to him coming to WWE through their recruiting page. Bubba Ray tells Drake Morreaux that Carver made a bad first impression before Kevin Owens speaks with Carver. Owens tells Carver to think about what is more important to him and to be more coachable. Meanwhile, Bubba Ray reminds Drake that he will have his fair share of doubters. We then hear from Drake Morreaux, whose contract with WWE is about to expire and that it is "nut up or shut up." Matt Bloom says that the clock is ticking and that if Drake Morreaux cannot come up with something that will make him more noticeable, his WWE career may come to an end.

Drake Morreaux beats Keanu Carver. Both men notice that the match is not very physical. Bubba Ray states that Drake did better in the beginning and the end than in the middle. After the match, Owens tells Carver that both men looked "too light" and were too careful, and that his offense and his presence needs to match and that he needs to be more vicious. Bubba Ray tells Drake mostly the same thing, and tells him that both of them need to bring it and lay it in. He tells Drake to dive into the swamp and fight the alligator with his bare hands, and to "let it go." Drake feels happy, but also pissed off, to be back.

We are introducd to Kendal Grey, who talks about her amateur wrestling past and being on the boys' varsity theme before saying that she will not stop until she gets what she wants. Natalya feels that Kendal is someone to watch out for as she and Booker T look into how to make Kendal vs. PJ Vasa look like a David vs. Goliath-style match.
