As a recap, the following competitors are still in the ring*: Jonathan Brügger, Marisa Cohen, Jennifer Popack, Julie Katz, Jenna Cruff, Sascha Puritz, Adam Rubens, “John” Sena, Sam Norris, Dani Rylan, and Rachel Nabatz.

*Luisa was briefly in the ring to help eliminate Jerome “Hornswoggle” Ramos, but since she is not an official entrant, referee Aaron Friedman forced her to exit the ring area.

***35th Entrant: Jerry Chavez, Gut Rot***

Jerry receives a warm ovation from the fans as he runs down to the ring.  He immediately starts to go after some of the former GPGs, just in case they develop any notions of reforming.  The strategy pays off, as he is able to take advantage of being the fresh man and disposes of Sascha rather quickly.

***Sascha Puritz has been eliminated***

Jerry continues to clean house and is beginning to look like the new favorite to take this thing.  However, he then eyes Brügger, who has been in the Rumble since it started.  Clearly, to have a chance at winning, Jerry is going to have to go through Brügger.  The two stand face to face in an epic stare down.  Jerry shoves Brügger, who nearly tumbles backwards over the rope.  Jerry continues to push him, and Brügger is now over the top rope standing on the ring apron.  One more good shove, and the man who’s been in this the longest will be history.  At that moment, Springsteen’s “Born to Run” starts playing over the loudspeaker.  Who could this be?

***36th Entrant: Richard Glanzer, Happy Little Elves***

My God!  That’s Rich Glanzer’s music!  Richie sprints down to the ring (at 2 mph) and immediately starts pummeling Jerry from behind.  This gives Brügger the opening he needs to jump back in the ring.  The two Elves continue their assault on Jerry, until Glanzer takes Jerry up in a fireman’s carry and starts squatting with him.  What strength!  A display of power like that can only come from Crossfit.  And Glanzer makes sure everyone knows about it by posting a video on Instagram and updating his Facebook status.  His ego may cost him, however, as this gives enough time for the next competitor to come out.

***37th Entrant: Heather Aspegren, Gut Rot***

Heather, who apparently has no qualms about playing dirty, punches Richie right in the testicles.  He goes down in pain, dropping Jerry to the mat in the process.  Heather now stands face to face with Brügger and is looking to do the same thing.  He has none of it, however, and the two tie up.

Meanwhile, across the ring, #TeamDerk (Dani and Rachel) are facing off against the two Demons, Jenn and Rubens.  #TeamDerk pushes past Jenn, grabs Rubens, and has him in immediate danger.  With Rubens, lying precariously on the top rope, Jenn recovers and comes running over.  However, as Rubens extends his hand to be helped back in the ring, Jenn points to herself, and says, “Look at me.  I am the captain now.”  With that, she kicks Rubens off the ropes and down to the arena floor.

***Adam Rubens has been eliminated***

***38th Entrant: Suz, Tompkins Square Riots***

Suz comes running down to the ring in a banana costume, and the crowd is going nuts!  How hilarious!  It doesn’t get any funnier than this!

She jumps in the ring, screams to everyone, “I’M OPEN!! I’M OPEN!” No, she’s not. Sena is standing right next to her.  Sena throws Suz out of the ring.  Elapsed time: two seconds.

***Suz has been eliminated***

Back across the ring, the Gut Rot-Elves feud continues, as Brügger and Richie battle it out with Heather and Jerry.  All four start fighting near the ropes, and it seems like any one of them may go over at some point.  But wait a minute, everyone forgot about Jenna, who’s still wearing her Elves shirt.  She runs over to help her former teammates.  She looks to the crowd for answers, and even though the fans have begun a massive “Jer-ry!  Jer-ry!” chant, she provides the extra boost to throw him out.

***Jerry Chavez has been eliminated***

Richie looks at her like a proud father.  He tells Jenna, “You finally covered the point.”  Ben Chadwick doesn’t understand. Jenna and Rich hug it out.

***39th Entrant: Tiffany Hagge, Corlears Hookers***

As Tiffany enters the ring.  Sam and Marisa have finally finished their picnic, which infuriates Julie, who never got any potato salad.  She starts yelling at the two of them, telling them how selfish they are.  With that, Sam and Marisa look at each other and then give Julie a huge double clothesline.  (Marisa starts to reconsider putting Sam in the Friend Zone.)

Tiffany sees this and starts yelling at Sam and Marisa for not respecting the league’s female captains.  She helps Julie up, and the four all battle it out in a corner.

***40th Entrant: Jeremy “The Foot” Schumacher, Filthy Gorgeous***

The Foot jumps in the ring and immediately gets into a scuffle with Sena.  As the two battle it out, Schuie is able to give her a quick punch to the gut that doubles her over in pain.  He then breaks out his secret weapon…he bounces off the ropes and slams his new TITANIUM HIP into her head.  Sena is out cold.  Schuie tosses her out to finish the elimination.

***Sena has been eliminated***

The Elves coalition has been working on Heather this entire time, but she has been fortunate enough to hang onto the ropes until this point.  However, Brügger finally rips her off and is just about to throw her over the rope, when #TeamDerk appears!  Dani and Rachel make the save and start pounding away on the Elves.  Brügger was responsible for Derk’s elimination, and Dani and Rachel have vowed vengeance on him and the other Elves.  The two give Brügger a double thumb to the eye, which leaves him writhing on the mat.  Rachel then goes to work on Richie and Dani on Jenna.  With Dani and Jenna both leaning precariously against the ropes, it looks like one might over.  Then, out of nowhere, Julie runs across the ring and topples them both over together.

***Jenna Cruff has been eliminated***
***Dani Rylan has been eliminated***

***41st Entrant: Rebecca Norris, Mathematics***

Becky enters the ring as the last entry in the Rumble.  Remaining in the ring are Brügger, Marisa, Jenn, Julie, Sam, Rachel, Richie, Tiffany, Schuie, and Becky.  Who will win?  Check out the post tomorrow to find out!
