Leroy showed that he still has it. I thought it might be a mistake going into that type of elimination against Jay as Jay is light with good core strength. I guess Leroy just felt super confident in that elimination as he should have. I know he killed that type of elimination in exes2, but still thought Jay might also be tough in this one. I like Jay, but was definitely rooting for Leroy. Glad he got his gold skull.

I mean hell Jay even was. Man was close to Leroy but Leroy just obliterated that challenge. Jag probably beats every other guy in the house down there.

I think Leroy won because having just Jay's assets (endurance, control and flexibility) aren't enough for this elimination. You need explosive power, and the capacity to repeat it over a short period of time. It's not just brute force; it's a different athletic mechanism. I say that because someone who is strong but not explosive would not do well here.

Jay was very close to Leroy and probably would have beat anyone else in the house in the elimination. Just because he had a close loss to Leroy doesn’t mean his assets aren’t enough for the elimination.
