- This could be the one. - Dude, you gotta shut up, man.
- (laughs) I'm not gonna shut up right now.
'Cause you're gonna blow it! You're gonna blow it!
(both laugh)
- My name is Wes Lee. - I'm Gigi Dolin.
- I am Trick Williams. - I'm Jacy Jayne.
- My name's Channing "Stacks" Lorenzo.
- I'm Tony D'Angelo, the don of NXT.
- And we are WWE NXT superstars.
- And we are trying not to fail.
- Delicate tasks. - Delicate tasks.
(Trick laughs)
- Aw, I do know what this is. - I don't.
- Oh, you're done for then, alright.
- (React) First one to get the wand
from one end to the other without buzzing is the winner.
If you buzz, you must start over.
- Mmm, okay. - Let's do it!
- I was gonna be an orthopedic surgeon before I started this,
you know, family stuff. - Oh, okay, yeah, yeah.
- So I got a steady hand. - Sure, sure.
- It's really steady.
- (React) Three, two, one!
(maze buzzes) - [Censored].
(Gigi laughs)
- Alright, go nice and slow. - Oh my gosh!
(maze buzzes)
- We're gonna be here all day.
- It's a marathon, not a sprint.
- Is it one handed, or two?
Can we use two? - (React) You can use both hands.
- Wait, you can go two hands?
- (Tony) You gotta ask questions, man.
- No, I'm done. (laughs)
See, I looked over at you for a second.
(maze buzzes)
- Trick, you suck! (Trick laughs)
- (Wes) You still haven't done it. - Don't talk to me.
(maze buzzes)
(both laugh)
- Stop making me laugh! (Channing laughs)
Stop making me laugh, man! - Woo, woo!
- I hate this sound.
- That sound's gonna be in my nightmares tonight.
- (Wes) How close are you?
- I did it! - (React) Well done!
- Ha!
- Paper towels, huh? Is that why you put them here?
- Come on, man. Get tough.
(maze buzzes) [Censored].
- This is what you gotta do.
You gotta put something on the line, like you know,
if you don't do this right now, your little poodle,
you know, he's gonna get hit by a car, you know?
Like this is, this is... - I don't have a poodle.
- (laughs) Alright, whatever. (both laugh)
- (React) Wow.
(maze buzzes)
- One nothing!
(maze buzzes) - Are you kidding me?
No, no you did not! - See ya!
See ya, see ya! - No, you did not!
No! - Woo!
- I feel good. - I bet you do.
- These are the hands of a worker right here.
- I bet so.
- Good go, good go, good round. - He tried to throw me off, see?
- That was way too hard.
- What age group is that game for?
- (React) Four to six.
- Yeah. - Four to six?
There is not a four to six year old getting that.
(bell rings)
- (Gigi) Oh my God, what are we doing?
- How do you have such a delicate...
Oh well, you're the leader of the delicate tasks,
that makes sense.
- Do you have a kid one for him? (Channing laughs)
- (React) Don't spill the wine.
Whoever can delicately bring this glass to their mouth,
and take a sip with the smallest spillage wins.
- Lucky for you, or unlucky for you,
I am a wine connoisseur.
- Pinkies up, and grab it any way we want.
- (React) Grab it any way you want, do not spill,
bring it up to your mouth, and take a sip.
- Okay.
- (React) Do you feel protected with your...
- Oh yeah. - I feel handsome.
(both laugh)
- (React) Three, two, one.
Oh!
- I took the first sip, why were you so slow?
- I don't know!
- (React) And point goes to Gigi!
(bell rings) (Wes slurps)
- Dang, man!
(Trick slurps) - (React) Oh!
- Delicate! - There's no competition there.
- I'm delicate!
- Whatever, you can have it! - Ah!
You just gave me an easy one, dude.
- I did, I felt bad, 'cause of the first one.
(Channing laughs)
(bell rings) - Oh man.
Aww. - Tell me we have to do this.
There's no way. - This is origami.
- There's no way! (laughs)
- I already forgot. - Yeah. (laughs)
I was actually a big origami-er in my day.
- That's nice. - Ooh!
- Okay.
- Are we gonna have to redo this?
- I used to make paper planes in high school,
so you're in big trouble.
- You ever do that one that's like that,
and then you'd get a task out?
- Yeah.
- Alright. - That was so fast.
(both laugh)
- (React) Ever folded an origami crane before?
- (Jacy) No. - (Trick) No.
- (React) First to finish wins.
- We might be here a while.
- (laughs) We might be here a little white.
- (React) Ready, set, go.
- Other side up.
Have you done, you haven't done anything yet!
- Oh, I'm just making sure I'm going the right way.
- (React) So while you guys are doing this,
tell me the story of how you got into WWE.
- Me and my buddy used to watch it growing up,
in like, elementary school, you know, we really liked The Rock.
And we would sit there on the bus to school,
we would sit there and do the eyebrow thing.
- I watched it as a child, and then I moved to Florida,
and I started training at a really little school,
and then I got signed.
- I loved John Cena,
I remember literally going to school with a Master Lock around my neck.
I eventually won a WWE competition when I was 18 years old.
I finished college, and I started training in professional wrestling.
I got in with Nat, Natalya and TJ,
and they helped me get to where I am.
Doctor Tom too, give him some plug, and Kane,
and they got me to where I'm at right now.
- God, just... (sighs)
(Gigi laughs)
- I, my, I'm scrambled.
- (React) Make something else with yours.
- Okay, I'll do that.
- You'd think we would be better at this.
- No, I never thought that I would be good at origami.
- Oh, I ripped it! (Trick laughs)
Damn, I'm not delicate, clearly.
- (React) Closest to a bird wins.
- Alright, yeah, I'm, this is horrible.
I'm the worst.
- I'll hide what I got,
'cause I think mine's close enough to a bird right now.
- I feel like if I have tape, it'll really come together.
(laughs)
Look at this, I got tape, Trick.
- You got tape? - I got tape.
- (Trick) There's a lesson in this. - (Jacy) Mm-hmm?
- When it's time to make decisions... - Mm-hmm.
- You have to commit. - Mm-hmm.
- That's your problem, Jacy Jayne.
- I'm looking for the shortcuts. - You think it's about tape and hats.
- Dude, you don't have a bird! (laughs) You don't have a bird!
- (Tony) That looks pretty good!
- Mine flaps, bro! - (laughs) Are you kidding me?
- Look!
- (Trick) Isn't it beautiful? - (Jacy) It's so pretty.
- I'm gonna tell you what you can do.
- What?
- You can take your sailor hat... - Mm, tell me.
- You can go out to the river, and you will see my swan.
(bell rings) Doing his thing. (laughs)
- I made a bouquet.
- I made a kite. (buzzer rings)
- Oh my God, it's horrible! - Mm-hmm.
- I suck, wow.
- (React) This game is very simple.
For this, you'll have to keep the feather in the air,
using only your breath for as long as possible.
- Oh man, this is gonna be cool. - Alright, alright.
- Delicate.
- (React) Whoever drops the feather first loses.
- Oh, we need some space for this.
- Tony breathes heavy. - Let's just go right into it.
- Just walking up a flight of stairs. - (laughs) Oh yeah?
- Yeah, you can barely walk up a flight of stairs,
how you gonna keep this feather up for more than a minute?
- Okay, okay.
- (React) Alright, three, two, one.
- Ooh, it's flying away!
(buzzer rings) - Aww!
- (React) Aww!
(buzzer rings) (laughs) Oh!
(buzzer rings) (both laugh)
- This is ridiculous.
- You were so confident at the beginning of this.
- It was a tie, it was a tie! It was a tie! (laughs)
- (React) Jacy barely won. - I almost fell over!
- Ah! (laughs)
- He cheated, he cheated! - No, I had a better strategy!
Sit down, sit down! - God!
- Let me tell you my strategy. I started high,
I gave it one, and I watched you just lose it.
- This competition is rigged!
(bell rings)
- Oh, I love this game.
- This is up my alley, this is up my alley.
- Ooh, Operation.
- This game gave me crippling anxiety as a kid.
- Have you ever played this game? - Yeah, I feel like a long time ago.
A long, long, time ago.
- That's a little one though. - You're toast.
- Dude, you... - Did you see the first one?
Did you see how I handled that first one?
- Go ahead, queen. Go ahead, go first.
- (React) 30 seconds on the clock, whoever can pull out
the most pieces from the game Operation wins.
- So if I grab this white piece... - (React) Mm-hmm.
- It's just the metal that can't touch the,
or is it all of it? - Have you played this game?
Have you played Operation? - Not since I was...
- This is an American classic. - Not since I was four!
- (React) Three, two, one.
(bell rings) - (React) Alright!
- Ooh. (laughs)
He might actually have a steady hand.
- Oh wait, that's the small intestines, now,
we don't wanna mess with those. (buzzer)
Ah! - Oh, it scared me!
- Settle down, Tina.
(bell rings) - Tina?
- Two. - (React) Two!
- (Channing) Are you kidding me? Are you kidding me?
- Jeez. - (Channing) Oh, hey!
- You know what? Now I'm getting annoyed.
- Ooh yeah, you should, you should!
Bop! - Stop it!
- Oh, she almost had it.
- Oh, hey, hey. Get out of there.
- (React) 15 seconds. - I'm here to enforce the rules,
'cause, you know... (bell rings)
- (React) Alright, he's at three. - Three?
- I don't know which ones are easy, they're all tucked under!
- (React) Five seconds left.
- (Gigi) Ooh. (bell rings)
- (React) You got two!
(Trick screams) - Okay!
You are cheating! (Trick laughs)
Alright. - (React) Time!
- I got one! - No you didn't.
- (React) She got one. Time!
- Meh. (both laugh)
(bell rings) - (React) Four, five seconds left!
- You placed 'em in there just right, so he could get the little...
(bell rings) - (React) And time!
- I got one. Whatever this is.
- Good, you got water on the knee.
- I got a strong commanding lead, so there's no reason to be,
feel any pressure right now. - Oh yeah.
- It's like, you know, it's just another round.
- (React) Three, two, one.
- Come on, Trick!
- Nightmare, nightmare, nightmare, nightmare!
(bell rings)
- Uh oh.
(bell rings)
Okay, that was good, that was good. - (React) One.
(buzzer) - Oh!
- Screw that, what happened? - Hey, hey, hey, hey!
(bell rings)
- Oh you're, mm-mm, mm! (bell rings)
- (React) Two!
(bell rings) Two!
- Oh, ah!
- (laughs) Oh my God, bro, you're shaking like a stripper.
(bell rings) Oh, three?
(buzzer) - You stop it, eh?
(buzzer)
- Ah ha!
(bell rings) - (React) Four!
- My poor funny bone. (buzzer)
- Oh, oh! - (React) Ooh!
- No, you touched! (both laugh)
- Brain freeze. (bell rings)
Ah. - (React) And time.
- I love ice cream. (laughs)
- Oh. - Ah!
- (React) Time!
- Yes! - Stop it!
I, dude, I was this close to just over your head.
- Nah, you wouldn't have done that.
- Woo!
- (React) Alright, with four, Trick takes that round.
- God. - That's right.
- Dude, my heart. (both laugh)
- Dude, I didn't think Operation could be this stressful.
- Ugh, I feel like I almost busted a blood vessel.
- (laughs) You like got that one vein popping out your forehead.
(bell rings) - Oh no.
We gotta draw something?
- (React) To love another, first you learn to love yourself.
- That's right.
- (React) Greatest love of all.
A haiku is a Japanese poem of 17 syllables
in lines of five, seven, five.
You'll each have a minute to write a haiku about your first love.
Our lovely Ferg will be the judge.
- Okay, alright. - Ferg's my guy.
- I know, he... - Ferg's my guy!
- I know you like him, but don't be biased, alright?
- I slipped Ferg a dollar before I came in.
- (React) You ready? - Yep.
- (React) Go.
- Like, I feel like, looking back, your first love,
you kind of realize, I never really loved that person.
You're just excited to be involved.
- I wanna hide it from you man, I don't wanna give you any ideas.
- Five, seven, five. - (React) Five, seven, five.
- Boom, come on, Don.
- (React) There's only 15 seconds left.
- Oh my gosh!
- Alright, I'm gonna finish my sentence, okay.
- I thought it was supposed to be five words, seven words, five words.
- No, syllables, five, seven, five.
(laughs)
- Mine makes absolutely no sense.
- Well then you're done for,
because I just wrote this from my heart.
- (clears throat) This is called love.
Does real love exist?
- We're good.
- I was lost, 'til I met you.
- Was it 'til, or until? - 'Til.
- Okay. - 'Til.
- We good. - Slang.
- Is that a word too? - That's all I got.
(Trick laughs)
- Young, crazy, controlling, but hey.
(Wes laughs)
- Fuh-get about it. Gabagool is good for you.
Cannoli with me.
- (laughs) What?
What was the gabagool is good for you?
What does that even mean? Why does that matter?
- It's good for you.
- Would you say to a girl, gabagool is good for you?
- Yes, I would. - Cannoli with me.
- Delusion, gone. - Gone!
- No need to try.
You never loved my love.
(snaps fingers)
- My poem is called Sleep Apnea.
- She snored really loud.
I could not sleep day or night.
I am so sleepy.
(Jacy laughs)
- Alright, let me look this one right down the barrel.
(clears throat)
I saw her at the park.
Like a dog, she made me bark.
Woof, woof, she was mine.
Come on! Come on, that had meaning!
- Sure.
- She had me barking like a dog.
(bell rings) - Hey!
(giggles)
- Are you kidding me? - Yes, woo!
- Are you kidding me? - That's what I'm talking about, baby!
- Your poem was trash! (Tony laughs)
- Ugh. - Yeah!
- That wasn't even about love.
- Yes it was, we're still together.
- (laughs) Okay!
Fair enough.
(bell rings) - Ooh, I might beat ya on this one.
- This kinda reminds me of what was that thing called?
Like, Easy Bake Oven, when I was little.
- Ah, yeah.
- The food tasted terrible, but it was just fun.
- (React) We fired up the tiny kitchen and you've got one minute
to decorate this mini cake. - (Jacy) Okay.
- (React) Ferg, our cam-op over here.
is going to be the judge of this round.
- Alright Ferg. - That's my dawg!
- Don't let me down.
- (React) Ready, and go!
- Here we go.
- Oh, stop it, I did not just break the cake.
- (Gigi) Oh no!
- Yeah, I've made a mistake.
- Wow, I'm too heartbroken to make a cake right now.
I'm too heartbroken. I'm not right.
- (Tony) What are you heartbroken for, the dog?
- I need therapy, because I wrote a poem that made,
that I had a lot of feeling into!
- Red means stop, yellow means slow down.
(laughs) - Okay.
- You need to slow down.
- How did you do this?
- Look at mine. (whimpers)
- Let me read this for you again.
Can I read this poem to you while you make your little thing.
- Don't get your arm in my cake.
- I saw her at the park. Like a dog, like a dog!
- (React) Gigi is on to sprinkles and decoration.
- It doesn't look good though, don't be confident about it.
- What's the girl with the hair? Like, Cindy or something?
- Cindy Lou? (laughs) - (React) Cindy Lou.
- It's a Cindy Lou cake.
- It looks like a turd, bro, what is that?
(React laughs) (Tony laughs)
- Alright judge, don't let me down!
- Look at the star on top! - Look at the spikes!
- Look at the yellow star. - Look at those spikes!
- I'm kinda liking the spikes. - Yeah!
- Oh. - Hey!
(bell rings) - Thanks Ferg.
- Can you just... - Bingo!
- Just do not, Ferg. - Bingo was his name-o.
(bell rings) - (laughs) Oh!
- Oh man. - I had sisters.
Oh, you got sisters. - You stole my idea.
- Is this how you look when you wake up in the morning?
(both laugh)
- (React) We're giving Charlotte here some French braided pigtails.
Each of you guys gets a side, and there are 30 seconds on the clock.
How are your braiding skills?
- I'm not French, but I speak the braiding language.
- (React) Whilst you are braiding Charlotte's hair,
I would love for you to give the audience some advice
to anyone who'd want to be a WWE NXT superstar.
- Okay.
- Some advice to somebody who wants to be a WWE superstar!
- Oof! - Get in shape!
- You need to be passionate. You need to work hard.
- Stay healthy. - Yeah.
- It's all about connections. Life's all about connections.
You just gotta find somebody who's in the place you wanna be,
you start talking to 'em, you know, make friends.
And those friends, you know, if they're influential,
they'll get you to the place you wanna be.
That's life.
- Yeah.
- (React) How's your French braid over there going, Gigi?
- I think it's going alright.
She got frizzy-ass hair though. - Mm-hmm!
- Oh, that's French? - That's a French, baby!
Not that. - Oh!
I did mine East German.
- You know what's crazy about this?
Is my sister is a hairstylist, and thanks Alyssa,
I have no clue what I'm doing because of you.
- I don't feel I should win this one.
(both laugh)
- There's Tony's side.
That's what Tony's working with, whatever that is.
- Hey, hey, woah, woah, woah. Look at the hard work in there.
- It's a nice braid.
- I mean, it'll get the job done.
- (React) I think this point is Gigi's point.
(Gigi laughs)
- Look at 'em, look at 'em! Turn her head around.
- (Jacy) Okay, see people, this is a french.
(bell rings)
Someone tell me, what is this?
- Nothing.
- What do you mean nothing?
- There's nothing in there! - There's four clips!
- (Tony) There's nothing in there! - There's four clips!
Who are you gonna have a nice night with, Ferg?
Take her out to a nice Italian dinner, huh?
Maybe Olive Garden or something?
- My girlfriend kinda does her hair that way,
I think you got it.
- Hey!
- He's being nice, because he feels bad for you, okay?
(bell rings) Oh no.
- Woohoo! - (React) That's for you.
Dexterity and vision are necessary for this last one,
threading the needle.
First person to unspool their thread and thread the needle wins.
- I am ready!
- (React) You ready Jacy? - I'm ready!
- This is the hardest part, this is the hardest part,
this is all that matters.
- (Wes) Nope, not there.
- Oh my gosh, where is the thread?
- What are you doing? What are you doing, eh?
Oh, I got it, got it, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- (Jacy) I'm so shaky, my hands are shaking.
- Shakin' like bacon. - Yeah.
- Oh my gosh, the piece that I'm up here working on just rips.
(Gigi laughs)
- No you didn't. - Bingo.
- No you didn't. I got it, I got it.
- It's in there. - I got it!
- I have not...
