When a women?s prison workgang is attacked by 19th Century demon possessed, private-school girls, the head prisoner must destroy them to save the new inmate.
Can't disagree more. What the character wants will define them as either the protagonist or the antagonist. Most antagonists think they are doing the right thing and will go to great lengths to get it. However this doesn't meant the audience will empathize with them and want to see them succeed.

This is not a goal for an episode nor for a season, “…one day wrestle at the Olympic Games?” is an ambition. This is because he is an amateur wrestler with no professional or competitive experience and the road to Olympic qualification is long.
What specific goal does he need to achieve in episode one that will get him closer to achieving his ambition? Think of each episode as a stepping stone closer to achieving his ambition plot out the necessary milestones he needs to have reached/achieved before he makes it onto the Olympic team.
Each one of these could be an episode specific goal.
This is the writers job to come up with these goals and the plots to achieve them a few I can think of now are:
To earn a specific amount of money to be able to afford a Gi.
Or to get a membership in a local dojo?
Perhaps he wants to prove himself to his dream Sensei.
Then using a logline you can work on the structure of the pilot episode to achieve that specific goal.

It seams as if the pilot hasn’t got a dramatic spine as it lacks a specific goal and as such a plot.
Best to restructure the concept of the pilot so that via an event out of his control the young man must achieve a specific goal by the end of the episode. Then, using his actions and the characters he needs to deal with, demonstrate how most episode will look and feel during the season.
