So far in Season 9, 41 contracts have been awarded, meaning adding five more athletes to the roster tonight would tie the series record for contracts awarded in a season, and if six or more pique White’s interest, a new record would be set. Considering only two contestants – Baisangur Susurkaev and Ty Miller – graduated from the first episode of the year, that shows you how far things have gone since then.
There have been 30 finishes over the past eight weeks, including at least one save in 90 seconds or less in each of the previous seven episodes, capped by Luke Fernandez’s 15-second finish to open Week 8 last Tuesday.
How will things go this week? Tune in and follow below to find out.
