Welcome to PWInsider.com’s coverage of WWE LFG’s Season 2 - Episode 5 on A&E!
After a short recap of last week’s episode and a preview of tonight’s episode, Shawn Michaels gathers everyone up for a major announcement - size matters. Well, at least it does in the wrestling business. Michaels calls The Undertaker over and shows how big (The Undertaker) vs. small (Shawn Michaels) can lend to a story. Drake Morreaux tells the camera that this week is important because he’s the biggest man in LFG now. Shawn Michaels tells the Future Greats that big vs. small can have different stories because they worked together differently over the years.
Michelle McCool and The Undertaker talk about how the fans love to root for an underdog. The big person should be looked at as being able to kill the smaller person, but the smaller person should be able to hang in and have hope.
