In an unexpected turn of events on Big Brother season 26, episode 15, Cedric was eliminated. The episode, which was released on August 15, saw the houseguests vote between the two people at the bottom— Cedric and Rubina.
It was surprising to see Cedric go because he was a strong alliance member of The Collective and The Pentagon. During his ally, Quinn's reign, he was nominated because he volunteered for it. He thought Tucker and Makensy, the other two nominees, had a better chance of losing if a strong contender like himself competed with them in the PoV and AI Arena.
He was evicted because, Rubina, Tucker's showmance, was put up against him as a replacement to the PoV winner, Tucker. She showed higher chances of winning from the start because houseguests didn't want to go against Tucker, one of the strongest players in the game.

Fans of Big Brother took to X to guess and root for the next HoH. For the next HoH win, a wall competition was announced. Fans took guesses based on the rules of that competition as well.
"Rubina, Tucker, or Kimo for HOH!! Thankqqqq," one fan said.
"I'm bouta start submitting names to altars I need Tucker, Rubina, T'kor, or Kimo to win HOH so bad, and 3 of these are duds so...," said another fan.
"Omg if the Pentagon wins this HOH I’m gonna cry," one comment read.
"I want a Makensy hoh," another read.
Some names popped up more than others on X. Among them were Tucker, Rubina, and T'kor. Many Big Brother fans also guessed who was likely to win the wall competition, and based on that, guessed the next HoH.
"My Wall comp order on who falls first to last #BB26 : Angela Rubina Joseph Leah Quinn T’Kor Kimo MJ Chelsie Tucker Cam Brooklyn (HOH)," one user wrote.
"OK I’ve changed my mind just for salt in the wound I want Rubina to win the HOH wall comp and Tucker to win next week then we can reshuffle .. by then Brooklyn has to be gone maybe my other fave to go," another user wrote.
"After praying on his downfall for 3 days straight I kinda want Cam to win the wall idk," said one fan.

What is wall competition on Big Brother and who is likely to win?
The Wall, according to the fandom and the previous seasons of the show, is a literal large wall. It has small platforms for each houseguest to stand on. Their task is to stick to the wall through its obstacles.
The competition is made harder by obstacles such as shaking, titling of the wall, cold water or slime being thrown at the player, the platform under them moving, or the houseguests getting hit with large objects.
The player surviving on the wall the longest wins the HoH. The players to fall off from the wall get eliminated from the competition. The Big Brother classic was first featured on season 10, and then on most consecutive seasons of both civilian and celebrity Big Brother.
Fans think physically stronger contestants were more likely to win such a competition because the houseguests needed strength to withstand the blows of the obstacles. That's why, many of X user's best bets were on Tucker or Makensy.
New episodes of Big Brother season 26 come out on Wednesdays and Thursdays at 8 pm ET, and on Sundays at 9 pm ET, on CBS.
