The Voice kicked off the Three-Way Knockout Rounds for season 26 during Monday’s (Nov. 11) episode. Each artist will compete against two team members by performing the song of their choice. Coaches can only move forward with one artist from each round. Unfortunately, that spells the end of the road for the other two—or does it?

All Three Team Snoop Members Dazzle on ‘The Voice’
Monday’s (Nov. 11) episode of The Voice kicked off with Team Snoop members Austyns Stancil, Christina Eagle and Jake Tankersley vying to keep their dreams alive. And all three performances once again had Snoop consulting the Gangster Holy Ghost for help in deciding who to keep.
Stancil set the bar high with an electrifying rendition of the 2003 Luther Vandross hit “Dance With My Father.” The 34-year-old Oakland, California resident’s performance packed an additional emotional gut punch, as Stancil took the stage on the first anniversary of his own father’s death.

The R&B singer channeled his grief into some serious high notes, with a tearful Reba McEntire hailing his performance “spirit filled.
Austyns won already. I’m crying my eyes out #TheVoice

However, Stancil was only the first up for Team Snoop. Christina Eagle delivered a relentlessly spunky rendition of “My Church” by Maren Morris. And Jake Tankersley poured his heart into Luke Combs’ “Going, Going, Gone.”
If Christina does not win I will be very disappointed. How is she not already on the radio? #thevoice

So, Who Went Home?
Sometimes, everyone wins on The Voice.
Snoop picked Austyns Stancil as his winner. But the legendary gangster rapper threw a curveball when he used his Save on Eagle. However, all three fellow coaches then pounced on the opportunity to steal the North Carolina native. But Eagle stuck with Snoop.
I can’t believe he didn’t choose Christina but I knew for a fact I was gonna act up if no one saved/stole her! #TheVoice I love her and Austyns.

As for Jake Tankersley, he ended up on Gwen Stefani’s team after both the “Hollaback Girl” singer and Reba went for the Steal.
