The show’s Super Save rule change brought back four previously eliminated artists to perform in the semifinals, before cutting down 12 contestants to just five who will battle it out in the final.
Four of the Top 5 Artists were revealed at the beginning of the episode.
Renzo who is on John Legend’s team; Lucia Flores-Wiseman who is on Adam Levine’s team; Jadyn Cree who is on Michael Buble’s team; and Jaelen Johnston who is on Kelsea Ballerini’s team made it through.
The Top 5 was then rounded out by Adam David who joined Team Buble, after he won the Instant Save.
But with 12 whittled down to five, seven were brutally axed, leaving fans devastated.
Most fans were fuming over one singer’s departure – Bryson.
“How did Bryson not make top 5 and still didn’t get saved? He’s top 2,” said one fuming fan on Instagram.
Another slammed: “BRYSON AND CONOR SHOULD BOTH BE IN THE TOP 5 – WHAT ARE YOU DOING, AMERICA?!”
WORST YEAR, RIGGED SHOW?
“The worst year,” penned a third.
“This year is so bad I canceled my Peacock subscription,” declared another.

A fifth then said: “I hate this format!! Voting out 7 ppl at once is crazy!”
While a sixth said: “12 to 5 is diabolical,” referring to the new rule.
“I’m over this new format and I don’t care who wins anymore. I’ll find out online who the winner is cause I can’t watch anymore,” said a seventh.
While an eighth wrote: “I’m convinced this show is rigged. Ain’t no way (in my Bryson v) that Bryson and Iris went home and Jaydn stayed!”
And a ninth said: “This show is rigged and bs how tf Bryson didn’t make the top 5????”
