Having said that, it wouldn’t surprise me at all if she ended up on AI sometime in the next few years, especially since they know her already. And if that’s the case, not making it past the playoffs on The Voice could be helpful.  She just needs to have a backstory…   I think the boxing and wrestling is somewhat compelling, because nobody would ever expect that looking at her. They’d have to expand on it that a bit, and make a bigger story out of it somehow, but they’re good at that.     

Didn't you tell me yesterday we shouldn't cut J Ruiz? 

J Ruiz   Gah this was kind of a tough decision to make, as it's a battle of the winners here. I didn't really want to cut either but since the Fight to Survive cast got nominated twice already, that will probably continue to the case for the rest of this round and I'm not sure how long J will be able to survive so I guess it's fine for him to go now. Plus, a lot of us do know Ty and I'd like to see him last a little longer and maybe see another ranker rant on him later on, lmaoo, so it's fine for him to stay a little longer. Also as one of the few watchers  Fight to Survive, I might as well try to give J Ruiz a proper write-up so y'all don't have to do so. So you're welcome. So let's discuss J Ruiz.  Fight to Survive casted a lot of previously known reality TV show participants, influencers, athletes and other people for this reality show. J Ruiz is 37 years old and from Tampa, Florida. J is best and previously known participating on Seasons 6 & 7 of American Ninja Warrior and Steve Austin's Broken Skull Challenge. Okay Fight to Survive was a fun, chaotic and kinda messy show to watch but it was entertaining. The show is like a mix of Survivor, Naked & Afraid, The Challenge and maybe a number of other shows but those stands out. The premise consisted of two teams with survival items - some teams had certain items and the other team had other items. The cast members would have to ring a bell in the middle of the island and challenge a competitor from the other side to get said item they wanted. J Ruiz was a big and notable cast member for this, as he would often ring the bell to get items from the other team or the other team members would ring the bell to get an item from him. Mostly, J would do the ringing (as Missy was the female that did this). The competition was that the contestants had to battle it out with some item (ugh I can't think of the right term ). But yeah J BEASTED this battle every time where he won 5 times (and he never lost a battle) - four of those wins happened on the first 4 episodes. He did get a little weaker/lost some weight and energy after all of that battling, but he still won another battle challenge on Episode 6.   Anyway, let's fast forward to the Final 4 where it was Sarah Danser's tribe vs. the other 3 of J, Missy Byrd and Amal Alyassiri. When Sarah lost the battle, the team of J/Missy/Amal could have been "joint" winners - but this was the cutthroat and ruthless team (while the other team was all about peace & harmony), so of course they weren't satisfied with that and had to battle each other out. Amal ended up losing the first battle. Then it was Missy & a male competitor vs. J & a female competitor for the battle to win - this was INTENSE as it was the top male vs. top female beast competitors against each other. Ultimately, J won and remained and kept his flawless record - leaving Missy to be the runner-up. I guess it's fitting for J to win for Fight to Survive here, though I was pulling for and hoping for Missy to win for this show but oh well, not mean to be. I also want to shout out fellow contestants: Amal Alyassiri, Sarah Danser and Stephanie Gonzalez, as I wish I had enough room and space to bring them all into this game but sadly I didn't have the space to do so, oh well. But yeah, well done to J on besting Missy in this game once again.    I'll post a trailer of the show to give you all an idea of how it looks.   Saving: Terell "Ty" McDonald
