The latest edition of WWE NXT featured another elimination, and while the show is obviously scripted, WWE did not deliberately try to swerve fans with an unexpected elimination.
This week’s Pro’s Poll was largely similar to last week, with Wade Barrett and David Otunga in the top two slots. Heath Slater moved into third, however, leaving Justin Gabriel and Darren Young at the bottom.
Ultimately, it was revealed that Darren Young placed last in the poll, and he was forced to say goodbye to the competition. Despite receiving the “Na Na Hey Hey Goodbye” chant, Young did not go heel on the crowd or the competition, and instead gave a “respectful” promo on the way out.
Young placed second-to-last on last week’s Poll.
