it is the first thing

I grab every morning,

and it's the last thing
I have to drink every night.

[sighs]

I see myself a lot
in my kids.

Many of them go home
to broken homes,

and I know firsthand
what that is like.

My mother was 16 years old
when she had me.

She struggled a lot, and we
bounced around place to place.

We never really had a place
to call home.

[solemn music]

One of
the most important things

that I always want you to know

is that you will never
be perfect as individuals.

Life really began when my pops,

at the time
who was just a stranger,

took me in at nine years old,

me and my little brother,
and officially adopted us.

But if you work every day

to strive to get closer
to perfection,

you cannot be wrong.

Larry kind of saw
what was going on,

he knew my mother, and so

he noticed that
we weren't living

in the best of an environment.

It's important
that you walk out of here

with your head high
and that you walk

knowing that tomorrow's
a new opportunity

to be a better person
and to be a better man,

to be a better player.

My pops guided me
through life,

and as a teacher, that's what
I wanna do for my students.

It doesn't matter
where you come from

or the adversities
that you faced,

you can become a Titan.

[cheers and applause]

Blake will have to first
get by his opponent,

DJ's self‐proclaimed
body double.

His name is Steven Shelby.

In addition to him wanting
to be my body double,

he's also one of
my biggest fans.

So I'm gonna give him
a little surprise.

You think you're ready
to be The Rock's double?

The Pebble's ready
to be DJ's double.

Yes, sir, thank you so much.

‐ All right.

I watch how the Rock
is as a father,

As a father, I understand.

You wanna protect your girls.

My oldest daughter, Isabel,
she was six weeks old

when she was incubated
with a heart condition,

and I never felt so helpless
as a dad.

I knew I had
to stay strong for her.

I started getting into fitness
and body building,

And a year and a half ago,
she was cleared by her doctor,

and she can start working out
with me.

Now, she's done a 180.

You wouldn't know
that she has a heart condition.

and that's gonna be
the important part of all this

because now you're gonna
start to drag

that 300‐pound ball and chain.

And this is insane.

Steven Shelby needs to
get a grip on it.

Meanwhile, Joe Thomas knows
exactly what he needs to do.

He just straps it
onto his back

and he's bringing
that bad boy to the tomb!

[cheers and applause]

‐ He's gone!
Let's go!

‐ It's a better technique
from experience, Goldenboy.

He's been here before.

He's the reigning Titan,
and there's a reason why.

His technique seems
much smoother than Steven's.

‐ So close is Steven Shelby.

This matchup has been
back and forth.

Joe Thomas destroying
that tomb!

‐ That's a powerful man!

‐ Yes, he is, DJ!

‐ A powerful man!

‐ Finish it, baby.

[cheers and applause]

All the way, stud.
Push it.

‐ Say, come on, Daddy,
it's all right!

Why you gotta
make it so hard?

‐ Brother...
‐ I'm breathing too hard.

‐ And there you have it.

DJ's hand‐picked Titan,
Joe Thomas,

is victorious once again,

and is one step closer
to winning the Central region.

‐ It was amazing, being able
to defend my title.

I'm just happy to be
on top of Mount Olympus.

‐ A gut‐wrenching defeat
for Steven Shelby,

but we haven't seen
the last of the Pebble.

We'll see him back here
in two weeks

for the finals
in the Central region

where he'll have a shot
at fighting his way back

to Mount Olympus.

‐ He was faster.

I got kind of jumbled up
on the cage.

When we started
smashing the hammer,

he hit it in like three times,
and I said, oh, my God.

I knew that,
right then and there,

he had it in the bag.

I just gotta be
more focused next time.

[cheers and applause]

‐ Let's hear it for
two‐time Titan champion,

ten‐time NFL Pro Bowler...

[cheers and applause]

And the official Titan Games'
Iron Man himself,

Joe Thomas.
How you feeling?

‐ I'm not gonna lie,
I'm a little tired right now,

but feeling pretty good
being on top again.

‐ He has been in the grime,
he's been in the trenches.

All he knows is
never quit, never give up.

No surrender.

We look forward to you
defending your title.

We'll see you right back here
next week

on "The Titan Games."
