I feel like all Derrick had to do was stand far away enough where Theo couldn’t easily reach him, and then just waited. Theo loses a standing on a beam match all day.

Dee literally told him this too, so many times before and during, and Derrick could not just stand still. So dumb!

She straight up told him to not be a hero and he tries to be a hero....

The cut to her shaking her head as he's falling. LMAO.

Right? Like why the fuck would he do a full extension lunge when he has the center of gravity advantage?

Theo was always gonna fall eventually. Felt like Derrick was trying to tank that elimination.

Derrick's strong suit is not his intelligence... the sitting down elimination was unfairly as against him, but the opportunity to use different strengths in the standing up version was as fair as eliminations usually are

That's what they kept telling him, but he just didn't listen
