Team Blake: Ian Flanigan and Jim Ranger were up against one another to see who would move forward in the competition. The singer with the most votes was Jim Ranger. Ian Flanigan had to compete in the Wildcard Instant Save where he sang “Anymore” by Travis Tritt.

Team Gwen: Team Gwen’s top two were Carter Rubin and Ben Allen. Carter Rubin had the most votes from viewers, so Ben Allen was sent to compete in the Wildcard Instant Save. He sang “Prayed for You” by Matt Stell.

Which Contestants Are in the Top 5?

Ultimately, the contestants who were eliminated were: Ben Allen, Bailey Rae, Tamara Jade and Cami Clune.

All of the Wildcard Instant Save performances were strong, so it really could have been anyone’s win. Ultimately, though, Ian Flanigan was declared the winner of the Wildcard Instant Save, meaning Team Blake has an advantage going in to the season finale.

For each team, the contestant with the most votes from America were sent straight through to the top nine. Then, the remaining contestants competed for the Wildcard Instant Save.

Here’s who’s moving on to the finale:

Team Kelly: Desz

Team Gwen: Carter Rubin

Team Blake: Jim Ranger and Ian Flanigan

Team Legend: John Holiday
