CT is really pumping up Wes he must really hate Bananas now

CT has never liked Bananas. He's just too old to care or start drama like he used to. And he hated Wes even more over the years. CT clearly just gets paid to be on the show at this point because it's pretty obvious he does zero training and prep for these seasons and hasn't for years now. He's just there for the ride.

Yeah, CT is just playing the background game... which is good for him but not so good for TV.

I was pretty excited when CT came back. But he’s been quite the disappointment. He never wins anything, he’s out of shape, no drama, and no one throws his name out for votes . He’s become the most boring male challenger. Hopefully we get to see him crush somebody when they call him out from the scene in the previews.

Yeah he's still big and strong enough to probably win an elimination that involves no endurance and just brute strength. But the guy is married with a kid and will be 39 years old this year. Bananas is close to his age but Bananas' entire life revolves around the challenge and has no other major responsibilities in his personal life to worry about, unlike CT. CT has always been one of my favorites on the show so I hate to say it but it's about time for him to hang it up. Honestly, if I'm CT's wife, unless he's getting paid some big money to keep doing this show, I probably would feel the same way about him moving on. And maybe I'm reaching, but CT has never been the same since Diem passed away. The last time CT was the CT we've come to know was back in Diem's last challenge in Battle of the Exes II 4 years ago.

Yea, but wasn't that the really crappy version of the Challenge with the celebrities?

No, he won Invasion of the Champions... which was one of the worst seasons and easiest finals.

Still though, he won.


He also won two seasons of Champs vs. Stars.

I imagine from CT’s perspective, it’s hard because what the hell else is he going to do? I hope he saved his money.

Does anyone know what happened to Mattie? She was fine on that first season of Party Down South and has just declined since (Or is it just me)?

Bizarre decision by Bananas to throw in Zach, can only assume there is more to it that we don't know about.

The teams are pretty loaded this season, one of the jacked european dudes will probably win the whole thing.

I dunno, that might have just Bananas being a little bitch?

Staring at a map of the world though, figuring geography is going to come into play, pretty dumb to pick a team with a UK person on it.

The smart choice would have been Amanda and Josh, or if he really wanted to take a shot at Zach, Jenna and Gus. I bet neither of those teams could have named 10 of those countries.

It's called livin the hard life.

All she does is party, plus I think she's about in her mid-30s now. Yes, on the first PDS season she was a rock solid party girl hot babe. Now she's seems to have calmed down a little, but also lose much of her looks.

I don't care, I like her and Kyle. They're probably my #1 team now but with Paulie and his allies (Cara's team and maybe hunter and Wes by association) Kyle and Mattie will be very lucky to make it even a few more weeks in the house. Unless they win top 3, they're probably next on the chopping block.

It's stupid though, the vets should be going after the Brits to break up their alliance. It's strong and has lots of numbers, meaning at the end the small groups like Wes and Co. Will get picked off by them.

They also seem a bit aggressive though, and one the Ashley guy I could see calling out CT in a elimination: 1 he has no ties to him, and 2: he would try to make a mark by taking down a legend.

I just want to see CT actually involved and mad in on of these now with such a good cast. Maybe that will spark him, plus we can see if he still has anything left in an elimination: which he has rarely ever bene in recently.

Kyle and Cara’s weird infatuation with trying to hurt each other is extremely offputting for me. I used to really like Cara but she seems to come back a little nuttier every challenge while losing some of that “chip on your shoulder” edge.

I have only gotten back into it the past few seasons. Were Hunter and Paulie legit crazy assholes at some point? It seemed like when they were reintroduced they presented them with that reputation. They seem like two of the cooler guys on the show now.

I’m hoping Kam can notch a challenge win sooner or later. She’s a legit badass competitor in almost every facet of the game. Doesn’t get caught in the drama whirlwind. Destroys duels. Beasts challenges. Comes up with some really wacky ideas sometimes that usually work.

This is only Paulie's second season... he was a legit hothead last season screaming and trying to pick fights, especially with Kyle and Brad.

Hunter's always been a bit of a hothead as well. Especially with a few alcoholic beverages in him.

Oh I didn’t realize last season was his debut. I didn’t really take it as fighting so much as trying to stir shite up as a strategy. Didn’t he even admit as much by calling his shot before he even got to the house?

The reason it’s hard to pick off the Brits is because they all generally seem to like each other and there are so many of them.

Cara, Wes, Hunter, Zach, and Kam are all partnered with Brits. Those are some of the strongest individuals in the game. Plus Paulie is in an alliance with Cara.

Nah, Bananas has always been a hypocrite, petty, and a sore loser. I don't think it's anything more than Zach having a brain fart.

A lot of people hate Wes on the show, but are cool with him outside the show. Wes and CT have both said they are really close friends outside the show.

I’ll say again, Wes is running that UK alliance. The first thing he did was talk with some of them and team with them. I don’t know what you’ve seen to make you think Wes and Hunter are aligned with Paulie.

Agreed on Bananas, but I actually think that whole thing was scripted.

It’s almost like John couldn’t really make the commitment to be there so the producers just had him come out so he could be advertised as part of the season.


Like everyone is saying, the Brits are a huge threat. If Bananas was serious he would have understood that it wasn’t a bad move by Zach to make sure Wes stayed safe and that the Brits surrounding him didn’t get the ball.

As much as Wes loves fricking with John, he wouldn’t have thrown his name out this soon unless he knew he had the votes to ensure he went in, especially after John didn’t throw him in last week.


The way Wes was kind of giggling through the whole thing it seemed kind of staged to me.
