I don't like the block wall... They should go back to the paper wall.

It seems like it takes them forever to get out from under there though, so maybe someone holds them?

It kinda looks like once you fall from the handbike there's a pretty big scaffold you have to climb to get back up. But still I'd rather say "fuck
it" to the bike jump into the pit immediately, run to the scaffold, and climb my way up.

Yeah, but both their times are better than some of the men. For sure both men tonight.
I knew Shanay had done it fast. She probably did have a higher points total, or they just have them both up there and will officially seed after the rounds end. |

So I'm right in thinking that two people who win, won't actually get to come back? Since they only take the top four times. That's pretty sucky
for them

What's really sucky is that cute curly blond military girl from last night with the bloody forehead had a better time than half the men & will probably
have a better time than most of the women & SHE won't make it into the finals because she was actually up against someone who could compete. I hate
that most of the rounds I've seen so far have seemed VERY one-sided other than hers. She's the only person I feel got completely ripped off.

I know this has already been said but I'm going to say it again - Crush is hot!!!!
I wish that some of the older events would make a comeback like Atlasphere or Swingshot.. I don't know. I like this show being revived, but the events don't seem to vary that much anymore. The Wall and Pyramid are pretty similar (although I do like Pyramid much better), and Earthquake and Joust are as well (throw/hit the other person off the platform). Hang Tough seems too short now, whereas Assault seems too long that the contenders haven't been able to make it past station 3 yet... hopefully next week will change things around as it seems someone does make Hellga go flying. I'll keep watching this as it is entertaining and the Eliminator is great due to some of the very close finishes and upsets we've been seeing. I hope they add more events to the show eventually. |

They definitely need to bring back atlasphere.
And it's not going to be long before someone gets seriously hurt by jumping directly into the thing the fire comes out of over the water in the eliminator. |

Yeah the whole Barrel Roll and handbike seem useless to me. I mean what the hell? Just fall off the barrell roll, run to the handbike, hop down and climb up.
Little to no energy exerted, and you're not dizzy or anything. Lame. I hope they bring back the part where they have to choose which "paper wall"
to bust through and one of them has a gladiator behind it and one doesn't.

They might take the next two fastest times or have the 6 losers play off somehow for the last 2 spots. I'm not liking the Eliminator because it seems so arbitrary. It's so hard that it doesn't matter how big a lead someone has going in since one of the competitors usually has trouble even finishing. It's stupid that the men's competition came down to two guys basically passed out on the travelator |

I hope they bring back the part where they have to choose which "paper wall" to bust through and one of them has a gladiator behind it and one doesn't.On the original show, there was a fairly substantial time penalty for falling off the handbike. I'm not sure why they don't have that this time around. I really like this version of the eliminator actually...I thought the ending tonight with the guys messing up on the "travelator" was exciting and hilarious. But I agree that they should bring back the paper wall...it would be easy to put it in place of the brick wall they have now. |

Basically 2 male and 2 female winners from the prelims will be SOL even though they won. They already said once you lose you are done. What COULD happen is that the 2 male/2 female winners who don't advance will serve as alternates in case a contender in the semi's get hurt. |
