CULVER CITY, CALIFORNIA: Alright, we get that you're searching for information, but the Season 1 winner of 'The GOAT' remains a mystery for now. However, with the first few episodes available for binge-watching, we can now rule out a few contestants from the competition, such as the show's initial elimination, Joey Sasso.
In Episode 1, Jason Smith and Joey are tied at the end of the elimination round. Tayshia Adams casts the final vote, ultimately eliminating Joey from the competition.
"I was the winner of 'The Circle', so I don't think anyone—including myself—expected me to go home on the first night," Joey muses as he leaves GOAT Manor in his exit interview.
"People knew what I was bringing to the table," the Netflix reality star added. "I think, frankly, there's a lot of people who are intimidated by that. I'm a big personality; I came here to be the GOAT, but unfortunately, it's not me."
