- Amanda is planting seeds of doubt in Sara's head, which don't really matter when it's down to a fan vote. Tanner is frustrated that ZZ is still around because he's lazy. ZZ says he hasn't won anything, but he hasn't lost everything.

- The Tough Enough cast is sent to NXT to put the ring together.

- The cast is assigned finishers, and Sara Lee is given an armbar, which she does better than Lita, who demonstrated it. Tanner is given a cross body off the top rope, but struggles with his facial expressions. Either way, his cross body was beautiful.

- We come back from a commercial, and Josh said he wants to do a powerbomb as a finish, but the trainers say no. They give him a running powerslam instead, which looks pretty good. Amanda is given the BoDog, and does it well. ZZ gets a flapjack and a Gator Grip, which is a modified chinlock.

- Josh and Tanner are frustrated with ZZ's success, considering he hasn't put in the work. ZZ says that America hates Amanda, but she's been nice to him the whole time.

- Tanner claims he has plenty of charisma, but needs to work on his facial expressions. Sara says she's going to improve, while Amanda says she was playing a role when she was teasing Sara. Josh says his daughter is the most important thing to him.

- The three make their final pleas, and it's pretty run of the mill outside of Josh saying he's here to bring the sauce out.

- Daniel Bryan says he trusts the WWE Universe, and doesn't use his save. Tanner is gone, with only 20 percent of the vote. Josh had 46 percent and ZZ had 34 percent. Tanner says that he'll still pursue WWE. Next week we'll see matches on the finale.
