Report: Kevin Owens, Natalya set for roles on WWE LFG
The next season of WWE LFG will include Kevin Owens and Natalya in mentorship roles.
PWInsider reported today that Owens and Natalya will be featured as mentors in season three of WWE LFG on A&E. The show, which is currently filming, will also have Bully Ray and Booker T back as mentors. A premiere date for the new season has yet to be announced.
WWE LFG is a competition-style show with Performance Center recruits trying to earn their way onto NXT television. Season one was won by Jasper Troy and Tyra Mae Steele, while Shiloh Hill and Skylar Raye were the season two winners.
In season one, The Undertaker and Mickie James were coaches along with Bully Ray and Booker T. Michelle McCool then replaced James in season two.
Owens is unable to wrestle at the moment following neck surgery, but he shared a video of himself last month doing some cardio work at the Performance Center.
This mentorship role should be a natural one for Natalya, who already works with wrestlers both in and outside of WWE at her Dungeon training facility with husband TJ Wilson.
PWInsider’s report says that there will be a slight format change to WWE LFG in season three, with the show set to feature more guest stars.
