Members JackPeyton Posted December 27, 2011 Members Share Posted December 27, 2011 The newest season of MTV's The Challenge is upon us! It is similar in style to last season, the best on years, seeing people at odds being paired up! This season though it is Battle of the Exes. Stars Jan 25th! Cast List & Pairings- Abram & Cara Maria CT & Diem Dunbar & Paula Dustin & heather (Vegas) Johnny & Camila Leroy & Naomi (Vegas) Mark Long & Robin !! Nate & Pircilla (San Diego) Rachel & Aneesa Ty & Emily Tyrie & Jasmin Vinny & Sarah Wes & Mandi Details (shamelessly stolen from Wiki, because its essentally what was going to type) Romances Abram & Cara Maria: The two met on Cutthroat and began to show affection for each other throughout the entire season of The Challenge. After the show ended, the two continued to date, and Abe provided moral support to Cara Maria over the phone during her stint on Rivals, but have since separated. CT & Diem: CT and Diem met on The Duel where CT instantly developed a crush on Diem, who was at the time dealing with the side-effects of her chemotherapy. CT had helped Diem to feel confident with herself by the end of her time on The Challenge, and the two began dating after. The two were still dating as of The Gauntlet III, but due to how Diem felt she was treated on that season she broke up with him prior to the reunion. Dunbar & Paula: Paula and Dunbar had a relationship based upon fighting with each other, and kissing and making up through out The Island and The Duel II. It was revealed on the reunion that the two did have sexual intercourse after leaving New Zealand. After feeling betrayed by Dunbar before her elimination on Cutthroat, Paula felt as if she could no longer trust him, and Dunbar stated that he was done with Paula. Dustin & Heather: Dustin and Heather were season sweethearts on their season of The Real World: Las Vegas (2011) and dated, until shocking revelations about Dustin's past tore their relationship apart. They later got back together in an on-and-off relationship. Johnny & Camila: Camila had stated that she had a crush on Johnny and that she would marry him on Cutthroat, but nothing much was shown happening between the two of them. A possible fling was hinted at during the season's S#!% They Should've Shown special, where Johnny and Camila were suspected of hooking up in the house bathroom and averting detection by having Camila possibly leave through the room's window. Johnny was in a relationship at the time, and in interviews for the special, he and Jenn denied any fling between Johnny and Camila [4], however RW: Cancun alumna Jonna Mannion hinted on Derrick Kosinski's podcast that a fling between the two did occur during Rivals. Leroy & Naomi: Leroy and Naomi were "friends with benefits" during their season of The Real World: Las Vegas (2011), but only got together at night if neither had found someone else that day. Mark & Robin: Mark and Robin met on Battle of the Sexes 2, where the two began a relationship that lasted even after the season had ended. On the The Inferno II, Robin and Tonya got into an argument over Mark. In the first episode of The Duel, Robin revealed that she was single, and was no longer dating Mark. Nate & Priscilla: Due to Priscilla's underage status during her time on The Real World: San Diego (2011), she was unable to enter the bars and clubs with her 21+ year old roommates, and one night, Nate stayed home with her and the two made out while alone in the house. Nothing more occurred after this instance, despite an attempt by an intoxicated Priscilla during a group trip to Cabo San Lucas. Rachel & Aneesa: The two met on Battle of the Sexes and developed a relationship after the show, which was unknown to most viewers until this relationship was revealed during The Duel II, where tension occurred between Anessa, Rachel, and Rachel's newest partner at the time, Jenn. Ty & Emily: Ty and Emily quickly connected and hooked up on their season of The Real World: DC, but during the season the relationship turned bad when Ty's behavior became too much for Emily to handle and she became wary of entering a serious relationship with him. Ty and Emily later got into a tumultuous argument on Cutthroat. Tyrie & Jasmine: Tyrie and Jasmine hooked up in the first episode of Rivals, despite Jasmine having a boyfriend at the time. Vinny & Sarah: Vinny and Sarah were partners on Fresh Meat II, and began hooking up in the first episode. On Cutthroat, after Sarah stated that she would be voting Vinny into the Gulag, he expressed that he was done with any kind of friendship with her. Wes & Mandi: Wes and Mandi were teammates on Fresh Meat II, but would later hook up on Rivals after CT no longer expressed any interest in Mandi.

Members JackPeyton Posted December 27, 2011 Author Members Share Posted December 27, 2011 I am most exctied about the following pairings- Diem & CT. Because i fell in love watching them fall in love and her recovering from cancer and moving on. Classic good girl/bad boy romance. And it is a grand one at that. I am s glad they are both back on a challenge. This romance has created the most memorable moments in recent years. Annesa & Rachel. Because Aneesa is CRAZY obsessed with her. Mark & Robin, because Robin is a hot ass mess in general but esp when it comes to Mark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted December 27, 2011 Members Share Posted December 27, 2011 Damn Mark has an amazing body. The guy was on the first RR and has to be 40+ now. Guy looks great for his age WTF has Abram done to his look? Being with Cara Maria has changed him for the worst Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted December 27, 2011 Members Share Posted December 27, 2011 I thought Mark Long said he was too old to keep doing these (or was that Eric Nies?) Kind of broad definitions of the term "ex." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted December 27, 2011 Members Share Posted December 27, 2011 yeah I dont get why Nate and Priscila are on but I guess they wanted someone from the recent cast. I guess Ashley and Thor (cant remmeber his name) or still together or else they'd be a shoo-in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Bright Eyes Posted December 27, 2011 Members Share Posted December 27, 2011 I think the biggest shock is that Jenn (RW: Denver) won't be on the challenge. I'm also sad to see that Paula didn't take a break after winning. Cancer girl is always hard to take with her holier than thou bullsh!t and, of course, CT is stuck with another partner who sucks miserable ass, meaning he can't finally win like he deserves. I'm surprised Rachel is back. I thought she was done with this show. It's sad to see she's been sucked back in. But on the other side of the coin, trainwreck Robin is back. She's the most must see for me, personally. Hopefully, since Mark is a great competitor, Robin can go far. I'm torn though. CT, Aneesa, and Robin all deserve to finally take home a win, but with CT now having no chance in hell, I think I'll be rooting for Mark / Robin to go all the way.

Members JackPeyton Posted December 27, 2011 Author Members Share Posted December 27, 2011 Diem never gets credit because she is whiny. But she is by far one of the better girls. One of the best? No. But def in the better category. She gives it her all and usually gets pretty far. Most her her challeneges she goes right before the finale actually. And she doesnt talk a big game like shes the best. She is just emotional and gets sad easily. And i dont think that not wanting your BF to be a douche bag and expecting people to be decent makes one holier than thou Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Bright Eyes Posted December 27, 2011 Members Share Posted December 27, 2011 Sorry, but Diem, Susie and Tori are the c*ntress trifecta. Though notice, I never talked about her skills. I just hate her ... or, the person she is portrayed on the show as. But yes, she'll never be a Rachel / Ev / Laurel. Beasts in female form, LoL. And, of course, I headed straight to Vevmo, where the final three is already known. It looks like I'll be white knuckling the finale. Though I guess that's how I spend every finale. Hoping for the best for the team I want to win, and praying to the heavens the team I want to fail lose miserably. LoL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted December 27, 2011 Members Share Posted December 27, 2011 Love Diem. She's one of the more memorable girls from the Fresh Meat bunch. Im glad she's back and glad she's blonde again as that was her best look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JackPeyton Posted December 27, 2011 Author Members Share Posted December 27, 2011 I am trying SO hard to avoid Vevmo and the spoilers. I managed to do it with Rivals and enjoyed watching it SO much more! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted December 27, 2011 Members Share Posted December 27, 2011 Looks like my support is going to go for Rachel/Aneesa and Tyrie/Jasmine. Possibly Mark/Robin and Abe/CM. I love me some CT, but I can't stand Diem's ass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Bright Eyes Posted December 27, 2011 Members Share Posted December 27, 2011 Tyrie/Jasmine I do not understand in any way, shape or form, BUT, the for the rest, thank you. jp, for this show, spoilers don't affect (effect? I always get that wrong) my enjoyment for this show. For me, it's about the reactions to everything that I look forward to watching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted December 27, 2011 Members Share Posted December 27, 2011 I LOVE Jasmine! I thought she was kinda crazy on Cancun, but she was my favorite competitor on Rivals because she was one of the first people in a long time on these shows to stand up to the alliance in "power." She clearly did not give a damn, and I loved her for it, and I hope we see more of that this go-round. She would have fit right in during the Coral/Veronica/Katie/etc days.

Members Bright Eyes Posted December 27, 2011 Members Share Posted December 27, 2011 I like her entertainment factor, but wanting her to win? More than the douchebag tribe, sure, but I wouldn't actually root for her like I would CT, Robin or Aneesa. I think I'm a challenge snob and purist.

Members JackPeyton Posted December 27, 2011 Author Members Share Posted December 27, 2011 They dont spil it for me either, really. I still enjoy it, however i love not knowing who is going home. I love Robin but i can not root for her to win. She is a whinny little bitch who feels entitled just because of how long shes been around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
