Fans hailed this episode of 'The Titan Games' as the best so far, and we can see why. Our Titans and participants fought it out with every bit of energy and strength they had and pushed themselves to the limit, almost to the point of injury. After defeating Victor Cruz and Exodus Rogers, an injured but determined Wayne Skivington took on Noah Palicia at Mount Olympus. It was a grueling battle and Noah won. Fans saluted Wayne Skivington for his performance.

Meanwhile, in the women's rounds, Kelly Valdez defeated Lindsey Hamm and Jessie Graff and then took on reigning Titan Margaux Alvarez at Mount Olympus. It was a neck-to-neck battle, but Margaux took the lead after the cage crawl, though Kelly was close to catching up. Kelly wasn't going to let go without a fight, she dragged the ball and chain with one hand. However, Margaux was faster by a few seconds and dug out the Titan relic quickly. It was a match between the winemaker and the firefighter, and the winemaker aced it. Margaux had won twice before at Mount Olympus, making this her third consecutive win. And now, Margaux will face Dani Speegle in the finals.

Fans have hailed Margaux as 'Queen Of The West'. "Margaux Alvarez retains in a close call that came down to the wire. W/ Dani Speegle & Margaux Alvarez reigning in the West and Central, who will be the female Titan champion of the East? Whoever it is will have to knock off Olympic Gold Medal snowboarder Hannah Teter," one noted. "Great job, Margaux," another tweeted.

Fans were awestruck by the fact that Kelly dragged the ball and chain with one hand. "How did Kelly Valdez pull that boulder with one arm? That was beasty. Congrats, Margaux Alvarez! That was amazing!" another wrote. "We'd like to thank Kelly for that ONE HANDED drag on the Ball and Chain. We need to pick our jaw up off the floor. What a Mount Olympus run! #TitanGames," American Ninja Nation tweeted. "Damn, I was rooting for Kelly, but great going ladies," a fan tweeted.

Next week is the East Region battle. Who will win? And who will take on Margaux Alvarez and Dani Speegle? Tune in to all the action on NBC on Mondays at 8pm.
