The Underdog: Josh Must Win sees professional wrestler Josh Foulds try to battle it out to win a huge cash prize on a new E4 series. Josh and eight celebrities will all compete in the popularity test.
Josh and his co-stars are all under the impression they’re starring on an E4 show called The Favourite. The truth is far from it though, and that’s because four celebrities are rigging the results to get Josh to win.
Meet The Underdog’s Josh Foulds
Josh Foulds is The Underdog on E4’s new reality TV show. The whole idea is that he must win the game, if four secret celebrities can pull it off, but he’s a professional wrestler in the real world.
At just 23 years of age, The Underdog star Josh lives with his parents and four chocolate labradors in Bournemouth. He’s the opposite of most reality TV stars – he only has a few followers.
The young star also doesn’t wear designer clothes yet he has no idea that if Josh wins, everyone wins, because the prize pot rockets to £100,000 and will be shared between them all.
From wrestling to reality TV
Josh is the only and youngest ever United Nations 2x champion, currently with just over 500 Instagram followers. He trains at All Stars South and recently ended a 600-day title reign.
He made his professional wrestling debut in 2019 but is now making the move into reality TV, attempting to win a £10,000 cash prize up for grabs. If the panel gets rumbled by the players, the game is over.
In one episode, Josh gets nominated for least popular. When housemates offer sympathy, he shrugs: “I’m not dying.” He may be successful in wrestling, but the panel hail him the “least likely reality star ever”.
Tricked into competing on fake E4 show
Josh had zero idea he wasn’t competing on The Favourite like he thought, with not one inkling there were four celebrities living in a room next door trying to rig the show’s results.
He wasn’t the only contestant led astray. While all the players, including Josh, believe they are battling it out to be the most popular, and win a cash prize on The Favourite, they’re being tricked.
Pete Wicks, Nick Grimshaw, Vicky Pattison and Amber Gill will do everything they can to influence the game – by setting tasks, introducing format twists, manipulation and using their reality show experience.
