Don't have the competitors lying flat on the ground while a "zombie hand" supposedly yanks on their legs. The comp didn't look difficult, to the point where they could focus the camera on Luke casually removing one hand from his handhold. And because the camera was doing that, it completely missed Cory losing his grip and getting eliminated. P.S...if your whole thing is "the loser is dragged off to the netherverse", maybe don't have him lose his grip and then just lay there on the mat for a few moments for Julie to announce his elimination, before slowly dragging him backstage.
