WWE LFG had SO much potential… so what the hell happened?In Episode 51 of Pro Wrestling Focus, Cody takes a break from the current WWE product to talk about WWE LFG: Legends & Future Greats and why he believes WWE has completely screwed up what could have been an incredible platform for developing and introducing the next generation of WWE Superstars.Season 1 introduced us to 16 original contestants, eventually becoming 17 after BJ Ray's injury led to Cutler James joining the cast. Now, a huge portion of that group is already gone—including Season 1 winners Jasper Troy and Tyra Mae Steele, along with Zena Sterling, Troy Yearwood, Leigh Laurel, BJ Ray, Tatyanna Dumas, Chris Island and Serena Linton.Cody breaks down why he believes Shiloh Hill and Zena Sterling should have won Season 1, why he thinks WWE failed Jasper Troy from the very beginning, the questionable name changes given to wrestlers like Anthony Luke, Bayley Humphrey and Dani Selkesky, and why the shift to the Season 3 documentary-style format feels like WWE has lost sight of what made LFG special.And Cody isn't saying WWE should keep every contestant forever. Wrestling is a business. Not everyone is going to make it.The problem is that LFG was supposed to be a pipeline for the next generation of WWE talent.Instead, Cody believes WWE created a show that got fans emotionally invested in these wrestlers… only to let many of them disappear.WWE had something really good here. Did they completely fuck it up?

We break down why the segment was reportedly cut, the Bella Twins' history with having segments removed, and whether WWE's creative team needs to manage its two-hour SmackDown schedule better.Then we get into one of AEW's biggest mysteries: where the hell is Britt Baker? Cody gives his brutally honest opinion on AEW keeping Baker off television for nearly two years and argues that if Tony Khan doesn't want to use her, he should let her go.We also discuss Chelsea Green keeping the Women's Championship, why taking the title away from her would have been bullshit, why Chelsea is finally getting the recognition she deserves, and the possibility of Chelsea's first title defense once she's medically cleared.Plus, the increasingly interesting situation between Big Cass and Corey Graves, including their real-life history and whether WWE could turn that legitimate tension into one hell of a storyline.And finally, we get to the biggest story of the episode:SOLO SIKOA REFUSES TO FALL IN LINE.Roman Reigns expected Solo to return to the Bloodline and fall back under his control. Instead, Solo hit Roman Reigns with the Samoan Spike, stood alongside LA Knight, and walked away from Roman's Bloodline. Meanwhile, Jacob Fatu stood by and did absolutely nothing.Has Solo Sikoa finally found his place in WWE? Could Solo and LA Knight be headed toward a showdown with Roman Reigns?
