Simon Cowell wanted Duo Transcend to step up their act after their last performance, and they killed it when 'America's Got Talent: The Champions' Season 2 returned on Monday night. From aerial acrobatics to blindfolded rollerskates, their semi-final performance had it all. 

'America's Got Talent: The Champions' Season 2 returned on Monday night for its semifinals and the remaining 12 acts are back vying for one amongst the six spots in the finale. 

The 12 acts, which will be performed today, are by Duo Transcend, Dania Diaz, Hans, Marc Spelmann, Marcelito Pomoy, Ryan Niemiller, Tyler Butler-Figueroa, Duo Destiny, Alexa Lauenburger, Sandou Trio Russian Bar, JJ Pantano and Strauss Serpent.

With the decision left up to the superfans, it is anyone's win this season. With Duo Destiny and Sandou Trio Russian Bar as competition under the same category, Duo Transcend really needed to step up their game in the semifinals, and boy did they deliver and killed it. 



 

With a circus-themed backdrop just like 'The Greatest Showman', they transitioned from aerial acrobatics to blindfolded rollerskates along with a series of other stunts that made not just the judges but even the viewers back home sit at the edge of their seats. Their performance this week easily topped that of Duo Destiny's who performed earlier than them. 

It was a mind-blowing performance that recieved a standing ovation from the judges. Simon shared that he loved the theme and didn't want it to end. Howie shared,  “That duo definitely transcended."
