Power rankings · Week 4 · Oct. 6, 2026 Updated Oct. 4, 5:35 PM ET

The Week 4 board

Twelve couples remain. Track proven technique against fandom, momentum, and the one thing fans can’t ignore: theme-night fit.

Season 35 / 12 couples active / 4 eliminated / Next live show: Tuesday, 8/7c

A composite power ranking—not just the show’s raw standings. Couples are ranked by a weighted Power Index (0–100) integrating four core pillars: 45% verified judges’ scores & week-over-week momentum, 25% live Kalshi Season 35 winner market odds, 15% pro partner Mirrorball pedigree, and 15% audience voting reach. Each card displays their Power Index, Kalshi win odds, judges’ scores, and social profiles. Tap a lens to reshape the board. Photography © Disney / ABC via Disney/ABC Press Room.
