Tonight at 8/7c, American Ninja Warrior returns with night two of the National Finals. That's night two out of only three, so we’re rapidly approaching the end of the season.

Night one of the National Finals brought us 38 of the 68 competitors who qualified for the National Finals. Only 12 advanced to Stage Two. One night two, we’ll see the remaining 30 competitors. We’ll also have the chance to see the start of the second stage.

We’ve selected a few preview photos to tease who we’ll see on the course tonight. We tried to only use photos that showed the first half of the course to preserve some suspense. Which of these Ninjas will reach the buzzer?

Kyle Soderman’s virtual sideline looks nervous for him!

Josiah Pippel wants to be one of the youngest competitors on Stage Two.

Will R.J. Roman have one of the top completion times?

We’re ALL waiting to see if Jesse Labreck finally gets that buzzer!

Remember that Brian Burkhardt is packing a Safety Pass.

Enzo DeFerrari Wilson is the youngest person ever to take on the National Finals. He just got his driver’s permit!

Looks like Jamie Rahn has both shoes on this time. That’s promising.

Kai Beckstrand has blown us away all season. We’re feeling confident here.

Brett Sims is one of the most experienced veteran Ninjas, but he can still hold his own with these kids.

Zhanique Lovett is motivated after her Semifinals fall.

Tyler Yamauchi is two for two on buzzers this year. Let’s get one more!

Fan-favorite Lance Pekus always has a strong cheering section on his side.

All of these competitors will try to reach Stage Two tonight. Night two of the National Finals airs at 8 pm EST/7c on NBC tonight (Monday, September 6).
