When he lost the puzzle challenge to Johnny on Free Agents. And even then, he wasn't sent in. Johnny Reilly just picked the final ticket to the final, so CT had to go in. I can't think of the last time someone actually voted him in.

If anyone has the balls to do it this time, it has to be Joss. He's just as strong and in much better shape.

How was Ex on the Beach? Anyone besides Cory and Faith that we would know of from the challenges?

Honestly I think the last time CT was actually voted in was against Evan like 8 or 9 yrs ago. They purposely voted him in so he could be "taken out" and clear their path to the final.....it failed miserably....

Evan was fat and CT destroyed him.

As for Ex on the beach it was actually an amazing shite show of hooking up and fighting...it was far trashier than the challenge but still some episodes we're entertaining as hell.

Angela, who is one of the worst ppl on earth, and Derrick were also on the show. There were a couple ex bachelor in paradise folks and some other random AYTO cast members. Besides Cory, no real challenge regulars.

Was Cory still one of the dumbest people on the show?

And what is going on with Faith? She seems very much in need of attention based on her antics elsewhere.

I think this may be the last season I watch. It’s a problem when majority of the cast are not even real world folks. Way too many Ex on Beach/UK/Big Brother folks

It’s amazing how far it’s fallen off just in 3 seasons from Invasion of Champs.

I thought Landon was supposed to be back?

I though Invasion was the low point imo. The champs never faced the challengers in eliminations which ruined the whole season.

The last two seasons have been great. I didn't think I'd like the new people, but Kyle and Joss are awesome. Kayleigh and Natalie are solid for girls too. This season had potential to be amazing. The cast leaks that came out months ago had the most stacked cast ever. But idk wtf happened. Almost none of the big names showed up and the teams are so unbalanced it's ridiculous.

I was speaking more in generalities as to say that was the last season where I really knew everyone and was invested. It’s clear they are using a sizable marketing push for this one and the whole trilogy moniker to try and revamp the franchise.

It’s just too forced now. I realize the old guard is getting older and it’s harder to pull them away from jobs and family life, but they aren’t really utilizing the recent assets from RW. The last few seasons had a ton of crazy characters who would excel in challenge settings

Plus, I was never really a fan of rivals or battle of the exes. That’s all this season is, just a different name. It’s all manufactured. Of all the teams, perhaps 2-3 legit can’t stand their partner. Some of my favorite seasons were the no BS challenges like the Duel, inferno, etc

The first Duel and Inferno 2 were probably my all-time favorite seasons.

Jenna is engaged. She can’t hook up with other people. Only Zach can

That was great. She’s the biggest all bark and no bite person on the show.

All of the promos had TJ saying something like “the challenge as you know it will never be the same” or something like that. If I had to guess this is a retirement party for the old guard. But, I’m really wondering what’s happened to the cast. There was huge hype around Landon coming back.

Confirmed not the last season but the last part of the “trilogy”. Dirty 30, then Vendettas, now Final Reckoning. My guess is next season will be totally revamped season. Would be cool to do old school vs new school type.

Those cast leaks may be for the next edition of challenges.

There were mercenaries in the season previews...I believe it said if they won they took that teams place in the challenge. Could some of the leaks be coming in as mercenaries?

Also, I'm thinking they pair up Cam and Kayleigh and just kick their partners off. Otherwise they would not have left it hanging like that.

That would be the fairest thing to do for sure.

Mark, CT, Landon, Evan, Kenny and Abram all on HGH/steroids would wreck shite.

*KIND OF A SPOILER BUT NOT REALLY*









As already stated, Devin was supposed to be a Banana’s partner, but his dad died right before the challenge started. Tony was going to be a mercenary, but they had to sub him in for Devin at the last minute.

just watched the episode

Cara Marie and Kyle are the new Jenna and Zach. He can do whatever he wants and she's still gonna be on his nuts. Its sad to see girls act like this and is why so many guys don't respect women.

Melissa is the English Kaila. Total loudmouth trash. She's done two challenges and been kicked off both for fighting. Hopefully she's never invited back. Kaila needs to not come back either but I guess her drama is good for ratings, especially now that Camilla is banned.

I think Kam and Kaleigh will end up being partners.

They keep coming up with these stupid gimmicks instead of doing another Duel.

Duel and Duel 2, are probably my all time favorite sessons and probably had the best overall cast. I also like the original Rivals and the one where Steroid Wes got sent in like every other elimination and kept knocking dudes out.

There was a magic with those casts that wasn't manufactured at alll...it was all just super Hgh/Test/Deca cocktails mixed with cocaine and incredible consumptions of alcohol...and it was great television.

..and as for Cory on Ex on the Beach,..he is incredibly dumb on the show, but his storyline is probably the main one and the biggest shite show of the whole season. His ex, who still is massively in love with him, was there the whole time he was hooking up with this trash ho from AYTO...then he actually got in a fist fight with another dude the very last night of shooting because he made a joke about her....

Faith was annoying, but seems like a decent person and somewhat what normal and I think is an Army vet....the Angela chick was an absolute trainwreck of yellIng and screaming and fake crying and drama. She's detestable and will get eaten alive in the Challenge house. It already showed, but seeing her get made fun of already is great.

She will also be incredibly terrible at challenges. She's all plastic surgery and seems like she will fold like crazy once shite hits the fan physically.
