Things are getting serious on Matt James’ journey to find love as our Bachelor faced some hard decisions on Monday night’s episode of The Bachelor Season 25. He sent the last of the bully tribe home, had a more friendly than romantic one-on-one date, and bowled for love before a surprise visitor changed the game.

But between the gutter balls and BFF massages, who rolled a strike and made it into our top 3 this week?

Check them out below, and be sure to share your favorites in the comments!

The Bachelor Season 25, Episode 6 power rankings

#1: Pieper

The first one-on-one date had our Bachelor on a wild ride out in the woods and put our top power player to the test on the carnival game circuit. Pieper won the prizes, Matt’s rose, and the number one place in the rankings.

We weren’t quite sure if Matt was taking Pieper out into the dark woods to casually lose her in the wilderness, but their date quickly turned brighter as the lights of the rides and games lit up the sky like their blossoming love. They had a ton of fun exploring their own personal carnival! But really, who wouldn’t have fun on this date?

They got more emotionally connected later on as Pieper revealed her struggles with communicating her feelings and Matt reassured her that whatever she is doing is working. Pieper rewarded our Bachelor by opening up completely and revealing that she is falling in love with Matt! The kiss, she gets the rose, it is magic. Perhaps love really was the ultimate prize at the carnival?

#2: Michelle

We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again, it is hard AF to stand out from the crowd on a group date. But our second-place winner did exactly that and knocked the other pins, I mean ladies, right out of the way. Michelle takes the runner-up position!

What started out as a casual day of bowling quickly turned into a true Bachelor competition as it was the Blue Bombshells vs. the Pink Petals in a ball filled battle to spend time at the after-party with Matt. The pink ladies reign victorious, the blue team gets saved by our sympathetic Bachelor and everyone gets the time they deserved!

Not really, but Michelle was on the winning team and got enough one-on-one time to secure that rose and a position in the forefront. I still love these two together! More Michelle time, please and thank you, ABC producers.

#3: Katie

Just because you’ve been kicked to the curb doesn’t mean you can’t get a place in the rankings, ya know? Katie, the real queen of Bachelor Nation, you round out our top three!

It’s safe to say our girl, Katie, didn’t have a chance to make a romantic connection when her one-on-one date with Matt turned into pranking Matt’s best friend, Tyler C. with a fake massage. Did you see how excited Matt was to see him?? Katie, it was no contest.

And although she showed her comedic skill during the day and her emotional maturity at night, it was too little too late for Katie as Matt revealed that their relationship couldn’t catch up to some of the others in the house.

She may have been sent home, but Bachelor Nation will soon not forget one of our favorite ladies! Maybe Katie could even be our next Bachelorette? I would support it is all I’m saying. We love you, Katie!
