Baddies Midwest kicked off another fiery episode on Sunday, November 24, 2024, on the Zeus Network. In the last episode, the baddies had arrived at the new mansion, and Natalie announced that Biggie, Diamond, and Tinkabellaaa would be staying at the house with the Newbies; the rest of the OGs, along with Natalie Nunn, would stay in another house.
Episode 5 featured many clashes between the cast members of Baddies Midwest, and one of them that received the audience's reaction was Big Lex and Jela's fight. Both baddies clashed first during the past episode when Big Lex called Jela out for "being a bully." Jela is an OG and did not seem to like that Big Lex slammed her out of nowhere.
However, they sorted the fight quickly as Jela wanted "no smoke" with Big Lex. In episode 5, the smoke between the two resurrected, and at the end of the episode Jela and Big Lex got into a fistfight to settle down the "smoke". Baddies Midwest fans took to X to express their views on their fight.
Some of them took sides, while others felt that none of them had what it takes to be a "baddie". One fan took to X and commented:
"Big Lex and Jela's fight was just like...Big Lex was just swinging with absolutely no aim #BaddiesMidwest"
Another fan wrote;
"When it comes to Jela vs Big Lex…. Nobody won. That weak ass fight. Big Lex TORE IVORY ASS UP THO YEAAAAA what happpeeeennneddd ahhh #BaddiesMidwest"
"This is beyond dumb asf. Big Lex has an issue with Jela for being a “bully” yet the Ho sitting next to her wants to fight Scotty for being “boring” & “not doing enough”. Is that not bullying? Make it make sense. #BaddieMidWest" commented another fan critisizing Big Lex
"Lex was backing up the entire fight cus she knew Jela was about to knock her out with that one armela threw stronger punches but neither one of them connected #BaddiesMidwest" wrote another fan
"I’m sorry but Jela can’t fight. She really had to sneak Big Lex. Like girl sit down. #baddies #BaddiesMidwest https://x.com/kuchiwps/status/1860857915822723310/video/1 " wrote another fan slamming Jela
"I just watched baddies and atp yall starting to pmo bc why yall say Jela got whooped by lex and they was fighting like 2 toddlers. I was agreeing w Rollie so bad bc that fight blew my shit" commented another Baddies Midwest fan
"Your time is up"- Baddies Midwest newbie, Big Lex opened up about Jela being a bully
Big Lex and Jela have been beefing in Baddies Midwest for quite some time now. It all started when Big Lex called out Jela for picking up on people needlessly during episode 4 of the show. In episode 5, the beef continued as Big Lex told Emma and Jaidyn that Jela's time was up and it was high time that she stopped being a bully.
Big Lex opened up about what she felt about Jela during a confessional and said:
"She talks too much. I feel like everybody knows that Jela is a fu**ing bully. Your time is up. Your prime is up. You and your speeches gotta go."
Later in the episode, Akbar V called Big Lex to sort out her smoke with Jela. They were joined by Rollie and Ivori, too which made Big Lex suspicious as she had a feud with Ivori as well in the previous episode. The episode ended with Big Lex and Jela throwing jabs at each other before Jela hit her with a punch. As both of them were talking, Ivori attacked Big Lex.
Baddies Midwest episode 5 aired on November 22 on Zeus Network at 6 pm ET/PT.
