Only one elimination product is formed because elimination from the other resonance contributor would form
a cumulated diene, which is much less stable and, therefore, much harder to form than a conjugated diene.

An aryl halide cannot
undergo an
S

reaction
because an aryl cation is
too unstable to form.
