Kevin sat by the pool with Seth and Cena.
Confessional
Kevin: We had a crucial jungle win earlier tonight, but we need to figure out a way to avoid the jungle all together next time.
End Confessional
"The vote is gonna be split 3-3, who's easier to flip, Finn and Emma or Bayley and Big E?" Kevin asked.
"Sasha's got Bayley on a pretty tight leash, I can't see her and E flipping their vote." Seth said, getting into the pool.
"I'll come up with something to tell Emma, I don't know. Let's see how everything plays out at the challenge first."
The superstars met in the living room. Sasha stood in front of stood in front of everyone, holding the cell phone.
"I just got a text from The Miz on our AT&T Cricket Wireless cell phone. It says, 'I hope you paid attention to WWE Rivals. If not, good luck'."
The superstars looked a bit confused.
Confessional
Sasha: I'm assuming this challenge is going to be something we saw on WWE Rivals, and whatever it is, I know for a fact I can learn from whatever mistakes I made last season, and win this challenge.
Peyton: My partner was on WWE Rivals for about 2 hours, I'm not feeling confident in this challenge.
End Confessional
The bus brought the superstars to a field, next to a lake. A platform was above the lake, with 12 harnesses on it.
"Hello superstars, welcome to your 5th challenge on WWE Fresh Meat. 6 of you will be competing the final challenge, 6 of you will go home with nothing. Today, you'll be playing Pop Quiz. All 12 of you will be hanging from those harnesses, side by side, and I will go down the line and ask you each a different question about WWE Rivals. If you get it right, nothing will happen. If you get it wrong, your harness will drop to the 2nd level. The NEXT time you get a question wrong, you'll drop to the 3rd level. The 3rd time you get a question wrong, you will be dropped in that cold lake, and eliminated from today's quiz. The first team to have both members eliminated, will be competing in the next Jungle. The last superstar still on their harness will win the challenge for your team, and be immune from tomorrow's jungle vote.
Confessional
Dana: WWE Rivals was my favorite show, I definitely can't wait for this challenge.
Seth: I won the damn show. If I can't get these questions right, there's something wrong.
End Confessional
The superstars were harnessed in this order: Bayley, Cesaro, Alexa, Kevin, Emma, Cena, Peyton, Finn, Dana, Seth, Sasha, Big E.
"The first round is easy. It's about the teams. Bayley, who was Chris Jericho's WWE Rivals partner?"
"AJ Styles."

"Big Cass."
Sasha sucked her teeth, as Cesaro was lowered to the second level.
"I'm sorry, the correct answer was Bubba Ray Dudley. Alexa, who was Carmella's WWE Rivals partner?"
Alexa's eyes got huge, as her mind drew a blank.
Miz silently waited for her answer for a few seconds.
"5 seconds, Alexa."
Alexa's mouth opened slightly, as if the answer was on the tip of her tongue, but said nothing. Alexa's harness lowered to the 2nd level.
"The correct answer was Eva Marie. Kevin, who was Paige's WWE Rivals partner?"
"Nikki Bella."

Bayley looked frozen.
"Uh..."
"5 seconds."
"Uh, green?"
"Correct. Cesaro, what color were Kevin and Sami's shirts last season?"
"Blue?"
Cesaro dropped to the 3rd level, as Sasha sighed.
"The correct answer was black. Alexa, what color were Brie and Lana's shirts last season?"
"White?"
Alexa dropped to the 3rd level.
"Correct answer was blue. Kevin, what color were Sasha and Becky's shirts last season?"
"Green."

Dana dropped to the 2nd level.
"The correct answer was pink. Seth, what color were Eva and Carmella's shirts last season?"
"Yellow?"
Seth dropped to the 3rd level.
"Nobody had yellow last season, Seth." Miz said, with a laugh, as Seth rolled his eyes.
"I don't even remember Eva and Carmella being on the show last season, how the fuck am I supposed to remember their team color?"
"The correct answer was red. Sasha, what color were Cena & Orton's shirts last season?"
"Blue."
"Correct. Big E, what color were Roman and Brock's shirts last season?"
"Orange."
Big E dropped to the second level.
"The correct answer was Red. Cesaro, Alexa, Peyton, Seth, you are all at the 3rd level, and your next wrong answer will get you dropped into the water. Emma, Cena, Finn, Dana, and Big E have all been dropped to the second level, while Bayley, Kevin, and Sasha all haven't gotten a question wrong yet. Bayley, who were the male winners of the Car Crusher challenge?"
Bayley thought for a bit.
"5 seconds, Bayley."
"Brock and Roman."
"Correct. Cesaro, who were the male winners of the Catch and Release challenge?"
"...Brock and Roman?"
Cesaro was dropped into the water as Sasha facepalmed.
Confessional
Sasha: So Cesaro, who has apparently never seen an episode of WWE Rivals in his life, is the first person to be dropped in the water. Thankfully, I was on every episode of the show, and I'm keeping our team in this game.
End Confessional
"The correct answer was Kevin and Sami. Alexa, who were the female winners of Against The Current?"
"Charlotte and Natalya." Alexa said confidently, before being dropped into the water, as Sasha laughed.
"The correct answer was Brie and Lana. Kevin, who were the female winners of Long Jump?"
"Naomi and Cameron."
"Correct. Emma, who were the male winners of Long Jump?"
"Apollo and Tyler?"
"Correct. John Cena, who were the female winners of Sawed Off?"

"Correct. Finn, who were the male winners of Hammock Crawl?"
"Brock and Roman?"
Finn dropped to the third level.
"The correct answer was Dean and Seth. Dana, who were the female winners of the Mini-Final?
"Charlotte and Nattie."
"Correct. Seth, who were the female winners of Catch and Release?" Miz asked, as Alexa looked on worriedly.
"Charlotte and Natalya."
Sasha burst into laughter as Kevin looked at Seth in confusion. Alexa rolled her eyes as Seth was dropped into the water.
"The correct answer was Sasha and Becky."
Confessional
Alexa: Okay, I fell in the water and didn't get a single question right, whatever. Seth was on EVERY EPISODE of WWE Rivals, and he couldn't even get a single question right! This loss is completely Seth's fault.
Seth: Being on WWE Rivals was hell, I'm glad I don't remember any of it.
End Confessional
"You couldn't get a single question right?" Alexa asked, as Seth joined her in the field.
"You couldn't?" Seth replied, sitting down.
"Sasha, who were the male winners of Sync or Swim?"
"Brock and Roman."
Sasha gasped as she was dropped to the 2nd level.
"The correct answer was Enzo and Cass. Big E, who were the male winners of Bombs Away?"
"Seth and Dean."
Big E was dropped to the third level.
"Big E, Cena, Peyton, Finn, your next incorrect answer will put you in the water. Emma, Dana, Sasha, you guys are on the second level, two more wrong answers and you'll be in the water as well. Bayley, Kevin, keep up the good work, so far, so good. Next question. Bayley, what male team was eliminated in Hands On?"
"Enzo and Cass."
"Correct. Kevin, what female team as eliminated in Door Jam?"
"Eva Marie and Carmella."
Kevin looked confused, as he was dropped to the second level.
"The correct answer was Emma and Alicia. Emma, what male team was eliminated in Going Up?"
"Rusev and Ziggler?"
Emma dropped to the third level.
"The correct answer was Randy Orton and John Cena. John, what female team was eliminated in Going Up?"
"Brie and Lana?"
Cena dropped into the water.
"The correct answer was Bayley and Summer Rae. Peyton, what female team was eliminated in Hands On?"
"Naomi and Cameron?"
Peyton dropped into the water.
"The correct answer was Nikki and Paige. Finn, what male team was eliminated in T-Bone?"
"Brock and Roman."
"Correct. Dana, what female team was eliminated in T-Bone?"
"Brie and Lana."
"Correct. Sasha, what male team was eliminated in Door Jam?"
"AJ and Jericho."
"Correct. Big E, what male team was WON Hands On?"
"Kevin and Sami?"
Bayley frowned as Big E dropped into the water.
"The correct answer was Brock and Roman. Emma, Finn, you're one wrong answer away from hitting the water. Sasha, Kevin, Dana, you're sitting a bit comfortable at the second level, and Bayley is the only person left with 0 incorrect answers. Bayley, name every person who has won more than one challenge throughout WWE Rivals and WWE Fresh Meat."
Bayley smirked a bit, at the difficult question.
"Okay let's see... Charlotte and Natalya for sure... Seth... Alexa... Kevin... Sami... Sasha... Becky... Naomi, Cameron, Roman, Brock... and that's it."
"Wow! Impressive! Correct! Kevin, name every person between WWE Rivals and WWE Fresh Meat that got eliminated, after being VOTED into the jungle."
"How the fuck... okay... Nikki Bella, Paige... Charlotte, Kofi Kingston... Brock and Roman... AJ Styles, Chris Jericho, Emma, and Alicia Fox... Dean Ambrose, and Nia Jax."
"Very impressive, Kevin."
Kevin dropped to the third level.
"You only missed 2 people. Carmella and Eva Marie. Emma, name every contestant throughout WWE Rivals and WWE Fresh Meat who has never competed in a jungle."
"Seth, Big E, Dana, Finn, and Alexa."
Emma dropped into the water.
"You forgot Naomi, Cameron, and Bubba Ray Dudley. Finn, name every WWE Rivals and WWE Fresh Meat contestant who has competed in a jungle, and is currently undefeated in them."
"Natalya, Kevin, Sami, and Sasha." Finn said, before being dropped into the water.
"The correct answers were Natalya, Kevin, Sami, Sasha, Cesaro, Tyler Breeze, Apollo Crews, and Peyton Royce. Dana, name every Rivals and Fresh Meat contestant who never won a challenge."
"Um... me... Carmella, Eva, Bubba, Randy, Cena, Peyton, Bayley, Big E, Summer Rae, Nikki, Alicia, and Paige."
Dana dropped to the 3rd level.
"You forgot Rusev and Ziggler. Sasha, name everyone who's ever won a jungle on WWE Rivals or WWE Fresh Meat."
"Myself, Becky Lynch, Cesaro, Charlotte, Natalya, Roman Reigns, Brock Lesnar, Kevin Owens, Sami Zayn, Peyton Royce, John Cena, and Asuka."
"Correct! Kevin, Dana, you are both one question away from defeat. Sasha, you're on the second level, and Bayley, still hasn't gotten a single question wrong."
Bayley smiled, as the rest of the superstars watched from the field.
Confessional
Kevin: If Dana and I can pull this out, we'll be safe, and we won't have to worry about avoiding the jungle.
Dana: Kevin and I are BOTH still in this game. Obviously, that gives us the advantage here.
Sasha: As long as Bayley or I win, we'll be able to get Kevin and Dana into the jungle. Preferably me, because if I lose, there's a slight chance Bayley and Big E might turn on me and Cesaro, and throw us into the jungle. You can't trust ANYONE in this game, and you have to plan ahead for anything and everything.
Bayley: I was on WWE Rivals. I watched WWE Rivals. And I remember EVERYTHING. If I'm losing this challenge, then we're gonna be here for a while.
End Confessional
"Bayley, What female team got second place in the Sawed Off challenge?"
Bayley's eyes got huge, as she remained silent.
"5 seconds, Bayley."
"...uh-" Bayley began, before being dropped to the 2nd level.
"The correct answer was Brie and Lana. Dana, what male team got 2nd place in the Sawed Off challenge?"
"How am I supposed to remember that?"
"I don't know. 5 seconds." Miz shrugged.
"Brock and Roma-" Dana began, before being dropped into the water.
"The correct answer was Ziggler and Rusev. Kevin, what male team got 2nd place in the Against The Current challenge?"
Kevin sighed, struggling to remember.
"Rusev and Ziggler?"
Kevin dropped into the water.
"The correct answer was Dean and Seth. Sasha, what female team got 2nd place in the Against The Current challenge?"
"Emma and Alicia." Sasha said, immediately.
"Correct!" Miz said, as Bayley smirked.
"We're down to two! Bayley, Sasha, you're both 2 wrong answers away from hitting the water."
"Bayley, you might as well let me win." Sasha said.
"Why would I do that?"
"There's no way you'll get voted into the jungle, if Cesaro and I lose, people are gonna try to throw us in."
"Then don't lose." Bayley shrugged.
Sasha glared at Bayley in shock.
"Alright fine, it's on then! Go ahead, Miz!" Sasha exclaimed, with a look of determination.
"Bayley, what was Becky and Sasha's riddle in the Mini-Final?"
Bayley winced, knowing her answer would be wrong.
"The only one I can even remember is 'what has 3 feet but can't walk'."
Bayley dropped to the 3rd level, as Sasha chuckled.
"The correct answer, was 'what two things can you never eat for breakfast.' The answer to the riddle of course, was 'lunch and dinner'. Sasha, what was Tyler and Apollo's riddle in the mini-final?"
"They had... uh... you can find me in the past, I can be created in the present, but the future can never taint me?"
"Correct!"
"How did you remember that!?" Bayley exclaimed.
"Cause I actually made it to that challenge, unlike you." Sasha smiled.
Bayley looked confused at Sasha's rudeness, as the superstars continued to watch the challenge from the field.
"Alright Bayley, you need this one to stay in it. Name 4 people, not including yourself, who had the same color shirt on WWE Rivals."
"Oh, that's easy, Tyler, Apollo, Sasha, and Becky."
"Correct." Miz said, as Sasha sighed.
"Sasha, name 4 people, not including yourself, who had the same color shirt on WWE Rivals."
"Brock, Roman, and... fuck, fuck, fuck, uh... dammit I know it... Brock, Roman... Nikki and Paige?"
Sasha dropped to the third level, as Bayley raised her eyebrows.
"An acceptable answer would've been Brock, Roman, Carmella, and Eva. The next person to get a question wrong will be eliminated. Bayley, name another 4 people, not including yourself, with the same color shirts on WWE Rivals."
"Okay, um. AJ Styles, Chris Jericho, Charlotte, and Natalya."
"Correct, Sasha, your turn."
"Naomi, Cameron, Seth Rollins, and Dean Ambrose."
"Correct, Bayley, give me 4 more."
"Um... Emma... Alicia... Enzo and Cass?"
Bayley dropped into the water, as Sasha smiled, before being dropped into the water herself.
Sasha and Bayley joined the rest of the superstars in the field, who were standing in front of The Miz.
"This challenge is my favorite challenge, because you don't need a stop watch to tell you who won and who lost. Our last place team is clearly Seth Rollins and Alexa Bliss."
Confessional
Seth: I'm beyond disappointed right now, but I've never been in a jungle. At some point, I was gonna have to go into one, might as well get it out of the way now. Let's see who I want to face... Finn and Emma? Thanks, but no thanks... Cena and Peyton are in the alliance. Kevin and Dana? It'd be easy, but once again, alliance. Sasha and Cesaro are safe. Bayley, Big E? Unfortunately, you guys are the only people left. Sucks to be you.
Alexa: I didn't think we'd ever have to go to the jungle. Seth and Dean avoided every jungle last season. Now I'm his partner, and all of a sudden we're going into one, against a very tough team I assume. Not looking forward to this, at all.
End Confessional
"Today's winners, thanks to Sasha, Cesaro and Sasha Banks."
Confessional
Sasha: This was the perfect challenge. Seth and Alexa are in the jungle, and Cesaro and I are immune from elimination. Now it's time to get Kevin and Dana in the jungle, and end his little alliance once and for all.
Cesaro: Sasha and I got our first win here on WWE Fresh Meat... I mean, I didn't do anything to help whatsoever, but thank god Sasha did.
End Confessional
"The challenge bus is here to take you back to the house. Tomorrow, you'll vote to determine which team will face Seth and Alexa in the jungle. You can vote for anyone except Sasha and Cesaro."
The superstars boarded the challenge bus.
"I want Bayley and Big E." Seth muttered to Kevin.
"What about Finn and Emma?" Kevin muttered back.
"Fuck that, Bayley and E are a big enough risk as it is."
"I really think we should go with Finn and Emma."
"When you're in the jungle, you get whoever you want. I'm in the jungle now, and I want Bayley and Big E."
"Fine, whatever, Seth. I'll tell Cena."
"Sorry for being mean to you at the challenge, by the way." Sasha said, entering Bayley and Big E's room.
"It's fine. I'm sorry. I don't know why I didn't just let you win." Bayley shrugged, sitting down her bed.
"It's whatever. Let's vote Kevin and Dana in this time."
"Okay."
Sasha left, as Big E changed his shirt.
Confessional
Kevin: The realization slowly begins to hit me that Dana and I are probably going to get voted in by Emma, Sasha and Bayley. While Cena and Seth are going to vote for Bayley and Big E. We have a number of options here. A, I could try to convince Sasha to turn her back on Bayley, and vote her into the jungle. B, I could try to swing Emma's vote. Or C... I could flip the entire fucking house upside down.
End Confessional
Kevin entered Bayley and Big E's room, closing and locking the door behind him.
"Bayley, E, I wanted to talk to you guys about the upcoming vote."
"Uh..." Bayley began, trailing off and turning to Big E.
"Don't worry, we don't have to tell Sasha anything about this conversation." Kevin said.
"Start talking, Kev." Big E said, as Bayley still looked suspicious, and a bit scared.
"Right now, me, Cena and Seth are all voting you in."
"What!? Why!?" Bayley exclaimed.
"Default. Seth and Alexa don't want to face Emma and Finn, Sasha and Cesaro are safe, there's no one else to vote. Once Finn and Emma realize you two are going in, they'll vote with us and send you to the jungle."
"Okay, get to the point." Big E said, crossing his arms.
"If you two don't say ANYTHING to ANYONE... and I mean ANYONE... me and Cena will change our votes, and vote for Finn and Emma, and you guys do the same."
"How can we trust you?" Bayley asked.
"It's a win-win for both of us. If you vote with Sasha, and we vote with Seth, the vote is split 50-50 between our two teams. If we vote together, I'm safe, AND you're safe."
"You know what? That makes sense. And it's not like we're turning our back on Sasha or anything, we're just not voting how she wants us to." Big E shrugged.
"But... but Sasha's gonna be mad, I don't think this is a good idea." Bayley said, worriedly.
"Do you go to the bathroom without Sasha's permission? Just curious." Kevin asked.
Bayley said nothing, gritting her teeth.
"Come on, Bayley, this idea is great, and it benefits us in the end, we're getting rid of a strong team either way with Finn and Emma vs Seth and Alexa." Big E said.
"But Sasha wants us to vote in Kevin and Dana." Bayley replied, standing up.
"It must suck when you're hungry and Sasha hasn't told you you're allowed to eat yet, huh?" Kevin teased. Big E smirked, as Bayley balled her fists.
"Okay, that's it! I'm sick of everyone acting like I'm Sasha's little... b-word!" Bayley said, angrily, as Big E laughed at her refusal to curse.
"Maybe everyone would stop thinking that if you took your lips off of her ass for a few seconds."
"Sasha does NOT control me! I can do whatever I want!"
"Oh, can you?"
"Yeah! I can! That's why we're gonna vote with you tomorrow!"
"So we have a deal?" Kevin asked, extending his hand.
"Yes! We do!" Bayley said, angrily shaking it, as she glared at Kevin.
Confessional
Bayley: This plan benefits not only us, but Sasha and Cesaro as well. Sasha might not be happy with it, but she isn't always right.
Kevin: If Seth and Alexa win? Great! Finn and Emma are outta here, they're a really strong team. If Seth and Alexa lose? Even fucking better. Seth won't be around to beat me in the final challenge like he did last year. All I have to do is last 2 more challenges. I don't need allies to do that. Seth is disposable at this point. In fact, he's a liability at this point, because he has the best team in the house. I'm honestly far better off without him.
End Confessional
Sasha stood in the red room, with Emma and Finn.
"Okay, so, if you guys vote for Kevin and Dana, I'll try to talk to Seth and Alexa and see if I can switch their vote, but if I can't, it'll be a 3-3 stalemate."
"3-3 is no good to me. We're voting last, and if it comes down to 3-2, we're voting Bayley and Big E in." Emma said.
Finn nodded in agreement.
"It won't be 3-3, it'll be 4-2. I'll talk to Seth and Alexa, they'll realize going against Kevin and Dana is easy as hell, and they'll vote with me."
"You better hope so. If not, you know how we're voting."
Confessional
Emma: I'm all for getting rid of Kevin and Dana, but I'm not going out of my way to save Bayley and Big E. I'm not gonna tie the vote just to keep them safe. If it's 3-2, I'm sending those idiots to the jungle.
Sasha: If I can convince Seth and Alexa to vote my way, Kevin Owens is GONE. BYE! SEE YA! There's 0 chance of him and Dana beating Seth and Alexa in anything.
End Confessional
That night, Sasha joined Seth and Alexa by the pool.
"Guys, you know how to guarantee you come back from the jungle?" Sasha asked.
"There's no guarantees in the jungle." Seth replied, getting into the pool.
"Vote Kevin and Dana in."
Seth laughed.
"You think we're gonna turn on Kevin to side with YOU?" Seth asked.
"What's the difference? I don't care about you and Kevin doesn't care about you. Only difference is I'm honest about it." Sasha shrugged.
"Kevin needs me."
"You don't need him... Alexa, you're awfully quiet over there."
"I just... what you're saying makes a lot of sense."
"Alexa, we're not turning on Kevin." Seth said.
"What makes you think he won't turn on us?" Alexa replied, as Sasha shrugged.
"I trust Kevin more than I trust you, Banks. No offense." Seth said.
"Kevin turned on Jericho last season. Who have I backstabbed?" Sasha asked, putting her hands on her hips.
"Becky."
"I did not backstab Becky! I won fair and square!"
"I don't trust you. And not because of the jungle. Just, you coming and trying to help us all of a sudden is fucking suspicious."
"Whatever Seth, have fun in the jungle against a strong team." Sasha said, leaving, as Alexa sighed.
Confessional
Seth: Why the fuck would I trust Sasha Banks? Sasha cares about 3 people in this game. Cesaro, Bayley, and Big E. I'm not on that list, so I'm not trusting her.
Alexa: Kevin and Dana are the weakest team in the house. Bayley and Big E are fucking strong. And they have good chemistry. I'd rather take Kevin out, then take my chances without him for the next 2 challenges, than face Bayley and Big E in a jungle. But unfortunately, Seth doesn't see things my way.
End Confessional
The next day, The Miz met with the superstars in the living room.
"Alright superstars, it's time to decide who will face Seth & Alexa in tomorrow night's jungle. Each team gets one vote, you can vote for anyone except yesterday's challenge winners, Sasha & Cesaro. I'll be back in 20 minutes, have fun."
"Don't go too far!" Kevin called out, as The Miz left.
"Our vote is for Kevin and Dana." Sasha said, looking at Bayley, expecting her to second it.
"We're going with Bayley and Big E." Alexa said.
A bit of an awkward silence fell over the room.
"Bayley?" Sasha asked.
"Um... we vote for... Finn and Emma."
Sasha looked surprised, and confused, while Finn and Emma remained expressionless.
"We second that." Kevin said, as Seth and Alexa turned around in shock.
"What the fuck do you mean 'we second that'!?" Seth yelled, as Sasha began to glare at Bayley.
"Third. That's majority. I guess I'll go get Miz." Cena shrugged.
Confessional
Cena: Kevin told me, right before the vote, we're no longer voting for Bayley and Big E, and that we're switching the vote to Finn and Emma. I really don't care either way. I'm down with any plan that doesn't involve me going to the jungle.
Emma: Not only has Kevin turned on Seth, and driven a wedge between Bayley and Sasha... he also just threw us into the jungle! Way to go, asshole!
Alexa (in a mocking deep voice): Kevin won't turn on us, Alexa! I'm Seth Rollins and I'm a fucking idiot!
Sasha: Every time! How the fuck does he flip the vote to save himself every fucking time!?
Big E: Seth is upset with Kevin, Sasha is upset with Bayley, Finn and Emma are going into the jungle, and I couldn't be happier. Sasha's plan was booty, Kevin's plan was better, and we voted accordingly.
End Confessional
Seth sat, silently fuming, as Alexa crossed her arms. Sasha simply sat in disbelief, as Kevin smiled and waved to her.
Cena returned with Miz.
"What's the consensus?"
"Finn and Emma." Peyton said.
"Wow. Big elimination coming up. Tomorrow night, Seth Rollins and Alexa Bliss will face Emma and Finn Balor in the jungle. Good luck, see ya tomorrow night."
Confessional
Alexa: Finn and Emma are a pretty good team, but they're no Seth and Alexa. I'm feeling fairly confident going into this one.
Finn: Seth Rollins is a great competitor. I might not be able to beat him on my own... I might have to call in a little back-up.
Emma: I am more than ready for this jungle. Being in here sucks, but we'll get this win, get rid of the best team in the house, and prove ourselves.
Seth: I'm speechless right now. If Kevin had a neck, I'd fucking wring it right now.
End Confessional
"You guys are going down." Alexa said, as Miz and a few superstars began to leave.
Emma rolled her eyes, as Finn chuckled.
"Do you believe in Demons, Seth?" He asked.
"I don't have time for your bullshit right now." Seth said, standing up, and heading upstairs.
Everyone left the living room, except Sasha, Bayley, Big E, and Cesaro.
"Bayley, what is wrong with you!?" Sasha exclaimed.
"I-"
"I told you to vote for Kevin and Dana!"
"Sasha, v-"
"You just fucking saved them! They were gonna go home!"
"Sasha-"
"No! I don't care what Kevin told you!"
"SASHA, SHUT UP AND LISTEN TO ME!" Bayley snapped.
"I'M NOT LISTENING TO ANYTHING! YOU LET KEVIN OUTSMART YOU!"
"OUTSMART ME!? I AGREED WITH HIM! DO YOU THINK I'M DUMB!?"
"AFTER TODAY!? YES!"
"Sasha. Just hear them out." Cesaro said.
Sasha took a deep breath, gritting her teeth and crossing her arms.
"We have two very strong teams in the jungle, neither of them are in our alliance, and with your plan, me and Bayley would've ended up in the jungle." Big E said.
"How?"
"Emma and Finn would've flipped their vote and it would be 4-2!" Bayley pointed out, as Big E and Cesaro nodded.
Sasha sighed, realizing they were right.
"Well... talk to me about these things before you do them. Don't conspire with Kevin behind my back."
"I'll try to remember that. I'm so dumb, I might forget." Bayley said, angrily, leaving.
Sasha simply shook her head and sighed again.
Kevin and Dana walked into the room, where Seth and Alexa already were.
"You're a snake." Seth said, immediately.
"I'm a snake!?" Kevin asked, as Alexa and Dana nervously looked on.
"This decision is gonna come back to bite you. I promise. You're gonna pay for this."
"Yeah, yeah, whatever. Don't you have a jungle to get ready for?" Kevin asked with a smile.
"You're lucky I don't toss you out of the fucking window."
"If you just stopped being a bitch and went in against Emma and Finn in the first place, I wouldn't have had to flip the vote behind your back."
"Good. You got what you wanted. Finn and Emma are gonna go home. Then I'm gonna come back and fuck your entire life up."
"Can't wait." Kevin said, leaving the room.
Confessional
Dana: Kevin ending the alliance is a very bold move, but I trust his strategy, and Alexa is annoying, so I wouldn't mind them going home.
End Confessional
The next day, Finn and Cesaro were sitting in the living room, while Sasha was in the connected kitchen. Seth walked in to grab a drink from the refrigerator.
"Good luck tonight, Seth." Finn said, genuinely.
"Yeah, yeah, Demon Bullshit, I know."
Finn said nothing, simply smirking and leaving.
"I wouldn't play around with him, Seth." Sasha said shrugging.
"It's a normal jungle, against a normal guy."
"Are you sure about that?" Cesaro asked.
"You know, I hope he wears that goofy paint to the Jungle, so I can prove once and for all that it's all bullshit." Seth said, leaving.
That night, Finn boarded the challenge bus in full demon paint, before it took the superstars to the jungle. The only thing in the field was a wall, with green and red 9 inch by 9 inch squares all over it.
Confessional
Seth: Demon King this, Demon King that, you're not a demon. You're a dude, wearing paint. And you're not gonna beat me.
Emma: Going into the Door Jam is stressful. Anyone can win, it can go either way, and you can't really strategize or predict anything.
Alexa: I definitely don't wanna go home on DOOR JAM of all jungles. This is so easy to win, we just need to go out there and do it.
Finn: They want to see the Demon King? I'll give em the Demon King.
End Confessional
"Hello superstars, welcome back to the jungle! I need the team that got last place today, Seth and Alexa."
Seth and Alexa made their way down to the field.
"Tonight, you'll be going against the team that was voted into tonight's jungle, Emma and Finn."
Emma and Finn came down to the field.
"I see you guys are fully prepared for this jungle. Tonight is everyone's favorite, Door Jam. Alexa, Seth, you'll be on one side of the wall, Emma, Finn, you'll be on the other side. You don't want any red on your side, you want green. Red bad. Green good. If you see a red door, flip it. You'll have 7 minutes. The team with the most green on their side of the wall at the end of the 7 minutes will be safe, and will live to see another challenge. The team with the most red on their side will be going back to the United States."
Finn, Alexa, Emma, and Seth got into their positions.
"Alright guys. 3...2...1..." The Miz blew the air horn and the 4 superstars rapidly began flipping doors.
Finn and Alexa both pushed the same door, but Finn pushed it harder, as Alexa jumped away from the wall.
"FUCK!" Alexa screamed, grabbing her hand.
"What!?" Seth asked, still rapidly flipping doors.
"MY FINGER! I THINK IT'S BROKEN!" Alexa cried, walking away from the wall.
Miz blew the air horn, and Finn, Seth, and Emma stopped flipping the doors.
A medic and a crew member looked at Alexa's hand.
"It's not broken, you might've jammed it." The medic shrugged, as Seth rolled his eyes.
"Are you sure!? It feels broken!"
"It's not." The medic said, bending it.
"OW!"
"Guys, there's 6 minutes and 42 seconds left in this jungle when I blow my airhorn.
"I can't play anymore." Alexa said, sitting down, holding her finger.
"Are you kidding me!?" Seth yelled, as Sasha began to laugh.
Confessional
Sasha: Like I said. Alexa wouldn't last in a final challenge. She's about to quit a jungle over a fucking jammed finger? Really?
End Confessional
"GET THE FUCK UP!" Seth exclaimed, turning red.
Alexa sighed, wincing in pain and walking back over to the wall.
"3...2...1..." Miz blew the air horn.
Confessional
Seth: So, not only am I facing a delusional guy covered in paint, and a bitter, irrelevant superstar trying to prove themselves. My partner is being dramatic as hell and half-assing this challenge, because her finger hurts. So it's up to me, to will my team to victory, by myself.
Emma: Finn is 100% locked into this challenge. I'm 100% locked into this challenge. And we aren't going anywhere.
Alexa: I'm an athlete. I've jammed my finger before. I know what it feels like. This is definitely not a jammed finger. It feels way fucking worse, and no one is taking me seriously. So here I am, playing with one hand, and fighting for my spot in this house, because I want this $25,000,000 more than anyone here.
End Confessional
"10 seconds!"
Finn and Seth pushed the same door, and Finn pushed it harder as Seth jumped back.
"SHIT!" Seth yelled, before continuing to flip doors with his other hand.
The Miz blew the air horn and the 4 superstars stopped. They went back and stood in their original positions as The Miz and the crew counted the doors.
"Finn fucked my finger up BAD." Seth said, staring at it.
"So when it happened to me it wasn't a big deal? But all of a sudd-" Alexa trailed off, looking at Seth's finger, which looked swollen and was beginning to turn purple.
"This jungle was intense. There's 45 doors on that wall, the final score was 16 to 29. The winners, who will stay in the house for another challenge... Finn and Emma."
"YES!" Emma shouted. Finn said nothing, walking back up to the bridge. Emma followed him.
"Alexa, Seth, you guys were the most successful team thus far this season, but sadly, this ends your time here in Canada."
The superstars clapped and a few waved goodbye as Seth and Alexa walked into the distance, with crew members following them, carrying their suitcases.
Confessional
Alexa: We got screwed over, 110%, and thrown into a bullshit jungle, and then I got hurt. I'm beyond disappointed in this result. This was our season for the taking, and thanks to Kevin's bullshit, stupid jungles, and Demon witchcraft or whatever, our team fell apart.
Seth: Kevin Owens, you fucking pathetic, cowardly, evil, fat piece of shit. You just cost me $25,000,000. As far as I'm concerned, the next time I see you? You're DEAD.
End Confessional
"Everyone here has never won a final challenge. But that'll change for 2 of you. You guys are the final 5 teams. You're so close. But remember. You're so far away. Good night superstars. See ya tomorrow."
The challenge bus came and picked up the superstars, taking them back to the house.
NEXT EPISODE: The superstars play Rollin' In Oats. With Bayley and Sasha at odds, Kevin and John outnumbered, and the house fully aware of Finn's talents, how will the next jungle vote go down?
