ended on November 30, 2010.<a href="#cite_note-09-07-2010-33">[33]</a><a href="#cite_note-11-02-2010-34">[34]</a> The season was exclusive to <a href="/wiki/Women_in_WWE" title="Women in WWE">female wrestlers</a> and was the second different contest produced by WWE to find new female wrestlers, the first being the <a href="/wiki/WWE_Diva_Search" title="WWE Diva Search">Divas Searches</a> held from 2003 to 2007.<a href="#cite_note-08-31-2010-25">[25]</a> The first four episodes of season three were aired on Syfy. Due to the debut of SmackDown on Syfy on October 1, NXT left the channel and became a <a href="/wiki/Webcast" title="Webcast">webcast</a> at WWE.com for visitors from the United States from October 5 onwards.<a href="#cite_note-Syfy-End-35">[35]</a> A new interactive website for NXT was also launched at the beginning of the season to accommodate the move.<a href="#cite_note-09-07-2010-33">[33]</a> The reward to the victor was changed in contrast to the previous seasons. Unlike the first two male victors, the female victor of season three would not get a shot at a title of her choice (the only title being the <a href="/wiki/WWE_Divas_Championship" title="WWE Divas Championship">Divas Championship</a>), but rather a WWE contract. Other changes in the third season include a greater emphasis on challenges for the first three polls where the winner of the most challenges before the next upcoming poll would be awarded immunity. The first elimination poll took place five weeks into the competition.<a href="#cite_note-09-07-2010-33">[33]</a> The majority of the season three cast was revealed on the second-season finale on August 31.<a href="#cite_note-08-31-2010-25">[25]</a> However, before the season's premiere aired prospective rookie wrestler <a href="/wiki/Isis_the_Amazon" title="Isis the Amazon">Aloisia</a> was dropped from the show. On screen, Aloisia's exit stemmed from an argument between Aloisia and her Pro <a href="/wiki/Vickie_Guerrero" title="Vickie Guerrero">Vickie Guerrero</a>, forcing Guerrero to fire her.<a href="#cite_note-36">[36]</a> In reality, it was reported that Aloisia was allegedly dropped from the show after pornographic photos of her were leaked onto the Internet. However, in an interview Aloisia herself was unsure whether this was the reason for her exit or not.<a href="#cite_note-37">[37]</a> Guerrero later revealed her new rookie in the season three premiere to be <a href="/wiki/Kaitlyn_(wrestler)" title="Kaitlyn (wrestler)">Kaitlyn</a>, who would ultimately win the season.<a href="#cite_note-09-07-2010-33">[33]</a><a href="#cite_note-11-30-2010-38">[38]</a><a href="#cite_note-39">[39]</a> The season was known for its often poor quality, a fact that Michael Cole and Josh Matthews often made fun of with humorous banter. Until a quitting angle took him off commentary for most of episode 3 a large gong was situated next to Cole, who would strike it whenever something about the show bothered him. It was removed upon his return. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Contestants_3">Contestants</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=WWE_NXT_seasons_1%E2%80%935&action=edit&section=8" title="Edit section: Contestants">edit</a>]</div> <table class="wikitable sortable" style="text-align:center;"> <tbody><tr> <th>Rookie<a href="#cite_note-Cast-3-40">[40]</a> </th> <th>Pro(s)<a href="#cite_note-Cast-3-40">[40]</a> </th> <th>Wins </th> <th>Losses </th> <th>Status </th></tr> <tr> <td style="text-align:left;"><a href="/wiki/Kaitlyn_(wrestler)" title="Kaitlyn (wrestler)">Kaitlyn</a>† </td> <td style="text-align:left;"><a href="/wiki/Vickie_Guerrero" title="Vickie Guerrero">Vickie Guerrero</a> </td> <td>3 </td> <td>4 </td> <td style="background:#FFFF7F">Winner </td></tr> <tr> <td style="text-align:left;"><a href="/wiki/Naomi_(wrestler)" title="Naomi (wrestler)">Naomi</a> </td> <td style="text-align:left;"><a href="/wiki/Kelly_Kelly" title="Kelly Kelly">Kelly Kelly</a> </td> <td>5 </td> <td>4 </td> <td style="background:#fcc;">Eliminated (Week 13) </td></tr> <tr> <td style="text-align:left;"><a href="/wiki/AJ_Lee" title="AJ Lee">AJ</a> </td> <td style="text-align:left;"><a href="/wiki/Primo_Col%C3%B3n" title="Primo Colón"> Primo</a> </td> <td>6 </td> <td>2 </td> <td style="background:#fcc;">Eliminated (Week 12) </td></tr> <tr> <td style="text-align:left;"><a href="/wiki/Aksana_(wrestler)" title="Aksana (wrestler)">Aksana</a> </td> <td style="text-align:left;"><a href="/wiki/Dustin_Rhodes" title="Dustin Rhodes"> Goldust</a> </td> <td>2 </td> <td>5 </td> <td style="background:#fcc;">Eliminated (Week 11) </td></tr> <tr> <td style="text-align:left;"><a href="/wiki/Catrina_(wrestler)" title="Catrina (wrestler)">Maxine</a> </td> <td style="text-align:left;"><a href="/wiki/Alicia_Fox" title="Alicia Fox">Alicia Fox</a> </td> <td>1 </td> <td>4 </td> <td style="background:#fcc;">Eliminated (Week 9) </td></tr> <tr> <td style="text-align:left;">Jamie </td> <td style="text-align:left;"><a href="/wiki/The_Bella_Twins" title="The Bella Twins">The Bella Twins</a> (<a href="/wiki/Brie_Bella" title="Brie Bella">Brie</a> and <a href="/wiki/Nikki_Bella" title="Nikki Bella">Nikki Bella</a>) </td> <td>2 </td> <td>0 </td> <td style="background:#fcc;">Eliminated (Week 5) </td></tr></tbody></table> † Originally slated to be <a href="/wiki/Isis_the_Amazon" title="Isis the Amazon">Lindsay Kay Hayward</a> as Aloisia, who had previously wrestled as Isis the Amazon. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Poll_results_3">Poll results</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=WWE_NXT_seasons_1%E2%80%935&action=edit&section=9" title="Edit section: Poll results">edit</a>]</div> <dl><dd><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r981673959">  – Winner of competition</dd> <dd><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r981673959">  – Safe in competition</dd> <dd><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r981673959">  – Eliminated from competition by NXT Poll</dd> <dd><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r981673959">  – Won immunity prior to that particular poll and is ineligible to be eliminated</dd></dl> <table class="wikitable sortable" style="text-align:center;
