For this mini-challenge, the contestants create a "badonkadonk" with padding. Chad Michaels, Phi Phi O'Hara, and Willam win the mini-challenge. For the main challenge, the contestants must create a wrestling storyline, with a backstage clip and an entertaining match in the ring. Following are the teams:
- Team Chad Michaels: Chad Michaels, Madame LaQueer, Milan, and Sharon Needles
- Team Phi Phi O'Hara: Kenya Michaels, Lashauwn Beyond, Latrice Royale, and Phi Phi O'Hara
- Team Willam: DiDa Ritz, Jiggly Caliente, The Princess, and Willam
On the main stage, RuPaul welcomes fellow judges as well as guest judges Rick Fox and John Salley. The runway category is Girly Girl Couture. Team Chad Michaels is the winning team, and Chad Michaels and Madame LaQueer are both declared the winners of the challenge. Team Phi Phi O'Hara and Team Willam are the losing teams. DiDa Ritz, Lashauwn Beyond, and The Princess receive negative critiques, and DiDa Ritz is deemed safe. Lashauwn Beyond and The Princess place in the bottom and face off in a lip-sync contest to "Bad Girls" (1979) by Donna Summer. The Princess wins the lip-sync and Lashauwn Beyond is eliminated from the competition.
