If you missed "The Four Sentence Recap" and "The Bachelor Five" from last week's Women Tell All episode, check that out here and then find our final Power Rankings below.
Gob knows what's up. |
By now you know the rules. So let's skip that and get straight to it.
POWER 5: We will mark our Power 5 choices with a * so you can keep track of how well we predicted from the start. Each of us has a POWER 5 pick in the final two.
Pretty amazing considering we didn't know anything about the girls other than their bios on abc.com before the season started.
POWER RANKINGS
- *Whitney, 29, Fertility Nurse, IL – It's hard to believe that the season – no, the pursuit of love, is coming to an end... but it's here. Whitney is going to have a ring on her finger this evening from our favorite fearless leader, Chris (with help from Neil Lane, of course). The entire season, Whitney has been above the fray. She's taken the mature approach and she hasn't been catty. She's crashed a wedding and damn it, she has a mural in Des Moines. The only thing left to discuss is what we'll call Chris and Whitney once they are married: Chritney or Whitnis?
- Becca, 25, Chiropractic Assistant, CA – Becca has been one of my favorites all season long. She's occupied my top ranking for a majority of the season. Truth be told, if I was choosing who I WANT Chris to pick, rather than who I think he will, I’d go with Becca. I think at the end of the day, the age difference is relatively significant and Chris is looking for someone that's closer to his "walk of life." Becca has a lot of awesome things in front of her – she seems like too good of a person not to be met with success and love. I'd watch The Bachelorette with Becca, but something tells me this is the last we're seeing of her on reality TV.
- Whitney, 29, Fertility
Nurse, IL – As much as I want to
pick Becca as this season’s winner (she was one of my POWER 5 picks, after
all), I’m officially predicting Whitney that Whitney walks away with a Neil Lane diamond. The fertility
nurse from Chicago has done everything right to win Chris’ heart. Whitney’s
stayed above the fray (read: Ashley I.) and seems to have made a genuine
connection with Chris (was the wedding crashing date foreshadowing their own
wedding?). Will she actually give up her career to live in a place with 400-500
people (depending on who you ask)? HELL NO. This relationship is doomed. But
for 10 glorious minutes, Prince Farming will make us all believe in
contractually obligatedtrue love as he drops down on one knee in a barn in the middle of a snowy cornfield in the middle of FREAKING NOWHERE (ironically, the perfect setting for a horror film) and pops the question to Whitney. - *Becca, 25, Chiropractic Assistant, CA – I really like Becca. She’s nice, genuine and has kept her cool throughout all of the ridiculous(ly amazing) drama this season. But she just hasn’t made the connection (at least that the editors have shown) that Whitney has. Add to that the fact that the preview reveals she isn’t in love with Chris yet (which would make moving from hopping California to snoozefest Arlington, Iowa a bit difficult). It was a shock that Chris kept her over Kaitlyn. It would be a bigger shock if she took The Bachelor crown. The good news for Becca (since it seems my one man campaign to make her The Bachelorette is falling short thanks to Kaitlyn’s popularity) is that she's only 25 and knows the best way to utilize Uber’s services. Her priorities are in the right place. For now, she shouldn't sweat the loss (is it really a loss?) and just kick back and enjoy life.
