XB (Extreme Boyz) GenSan from General Santos City emerged as winner in the grand finals of ABS-CBN's Showtime held today at the Ynares Center in Antipolo City.
The group won a cash prize of 1 million pesos.
The only group from Mindanao, XB Gensan was only a wildcard winner, but the group managed to beat all other 9 finalists who won during the monthly winners.
In fact, XB GenSan was not even a Monthly Winner. They only reached the Weekly Finals, last April 5.
Another wildcard contender (Boyz Unlimited) competed in the finals and they also scored high, placing 3rd.
It's quite interesting that Boyz Unlimited was the one who beat XB GenSan during the April 5 Weekly Finals. Boyz Unlimited later competed in the monthly finals but lost to Philippine Islands Assassin.
However, XB GenSan, Boyz Unli and 2 other were given a chance to compete in the wildcard finals held yesterday. XB GenSan and Boyz Unlimited both won the round and earn spots in the finals.
All those 3 groups mentioned above turned out to be the Final Top 3 in the Grand Finals.
THE FINAL RESULTS:
1st - Group 11. XB GenSan (General Santos City) [wildcard] 9.875
