Tyra Mae and Jasper Troy speak out after winning WWE LFG

A big moment has arrived for two new WWE stars. Tyra Mae Steele and Jasper Troy have won the first season of WWE LFG (Legends & Future Greats), and now their dreams are coming true. After working hard through weeks of training and matches, both stars finally get their shot in WWE.
The show, which aired on A&E, featured 16 young wrestlers from WWE’s Performance Center. They were coached by four WWE legends like The Undertaker, Booker T, Bubba Ray Dudley, and Mickie James. These legends helped guide the talent, teaching them how to wrestle better, talk on the microphone, and grow as WWE superstars.

Tyra Mae Steele is ready to shine

Tyra Mae Steele was part of Team Undertaker. She had an impressive background before even stepping into WWE. She won a gold medal in freestyle wrestling at the 2020 Olympics. Her skills and focus helped her stand out right from the beginning.
After being named the winner of WWE LFG, she shared her excitement in an interview with Sports Illustrated:

"I'm so excited. It's been a long time coming. I swear I've just been waiting for my moment to shine. I just feel elated. I just feel so, so freaking blessed."

In the final match at Madison Square Garden, Tyra faced Zena Sterling from Team Bubba. It was the biggest match of her life, and she gave it her all in front of a huge crowd. Winning at such a big stage showed that she was ready for the next step in WWE.

Jasper Troy wants more than just one win

Jasper Troy was part of Team Booker T. Unlike Tyra, he did not come from a wrestling background. Instead, he used to play football before starting his wrestling journey. He made his WWE debut in 2023 and slowly worked his way up.

In the final episode, he wrestled against Shiloh Hill from Team Undertaker. He won the match and proved that he belongs in WWE. But for Jasper, the journey does not stop here.

"I'm just excited I didn't take my foot off the gas after winning," Troy said. "If anything I was so looking forward to the end of the show and I was so wrapped up around 'winning and winning and winning' and then I just had a moment where I was like 'this isn't the end, and I don't know why it feels like the end.'"

"This isn't a movie where the movie ends and cuts to black. This is just the beginning... we won the show and I was excited and for a while, I was riding that wave, but then I had to get back to shore and realize, 'is this the only time you want to be at the top?'"




Both Steele and Troy impressed fans and legends alike during the show. They now train at WWE’s Performance Center and are expected to appear in NXT soon. With the second season of WWE LFG already confirmed, new talent will get a chance, but for now, it is Tyra Mae Steele and Jasper Troy’s time to shine.
