______________

Power of the Punch Challenge (2 points; 3 if break record):

Curtis won 2 points, score was 814. Thought Clay would punch harder than that.

______________

Talent Show Challenge (1 point):

I think I lost brain cells watching this whole debacle. Curtis, for whatever reason, won with his ribbon twirling and dancing gig. I woulda voted for Brodus -- and not because Michael Cole was involved. Clay eventually destroyed everyone in the ring, which is awesome.
