In The Challenge: USA, viewers saw multiple competitors struggle to advance through the various checkpoints in host Tj Lavin’s final in Patagonia.
Several individuals were out due to injuries or a teammate quitting, which are events they didn’t have much control over.
However, multiple competitors quit by their own decision, including one of the spinoff season’s favorites to win, Tyson Apostol.
The Survivor star outdid the competition through various daily challenges, had a strong alliance, and made strategic game moves all season to stay away from eliminations. However, the game’s top player was defeated by a numbers puzzle when it came to the final.
Sudoku ended up being the vicious last checkpoint before the finish line in Tj’s final, and the puzzle...

Teck Holmes, a former Real World star and two-time competitor on The Challenge: All Stars, continues to speak about being misled by the reality TV competition show’s production regarding the prize money involved.
The 46-year-old reality TV star recently offered a message to The Challenge: USA star Danny McCray, partly offering him congratulations on his successful season.
Danny was one of the 2022 CBS spinoff show’s two winners, with fellow Survivor star Sarah Lacina the other winner in a grueling final held in Patagonia.
Teck, an Og cast member from The Real World: Hawaii, appeared in the first two seasons of Paramount Plus’ The Challenge: All Stars, reaching the final in the second season but failing to win.

Devin Walker is giving his thoughts about The Challenge: USA final. Pic credit: MTV
Devin Walker has called out several of The Challenge: USA stars after watching how things went for the cast members competing in the CBS spinoff show’s final.
The show recently aired its two-hour grand finale on CBS and featured a final that some fans might consider comparable to the MTV show’s finals.
However, CBS’ version featured a variety of circumstances that happened before and during the final that viewers and spinoff cast members have criticized.
Several things caused issues for the competitors, putting them at a disadvantage or costing them a chance to continue competing. In addition, post-season exit interview comments from some finalists have indicated production wasn’t correctly explaining rules along the way.
That said, Devin isn’t listening to any excuses, as he even called out one of the finalists by name,...

In The Challenge: USA finale, viewers saw ten competitors learn that they’d officially qualified for Tj Lavin’s final, including six Survivor stars.
Ben Driebergen was amongst those Survivors as he played a strong season, kept himself tight with his allies, and stayed out of the eliminations at The Arena.
However, Ben got some unfortunate news when he and his castmates arrived at the final’s starting site in Patagonia.
Tj revealed that after Ben suffered an injury during the last daily challenge of the season, the medical team decided that it wasn’t best for him to continue competing.
That meant Ben was eliminated from the final before it started, and based on his details in post-show interviews, it was the right decision.

The Challenge: USA final recently concluded, with two winners crowned as champions for the spinoff season. They were the only two competitors out of 10 to complete Tj Lavin’s final in Patagonia.
However, one competitor could not complete the final due to a situation she didn’t have much control over. It all came down to a strict rule: if your teammate quit, you were also out of the final.
The final consisted of checkpoints, and it was one man paired with one woman randomly for each one. Survivor star Desi Williams had the misfortune of The Algorithm randomly pairing her with Big Brother’s Enzo Palumbo for the first leg.
Enzo revealed in previous daily challenges that he’s not a fan of swimming, which came into play in...

While Big Brother can be a challenging game based on its rules and circumstances, it’s nothing quite like the competition series known as The Challenge.
Big Brother stars have made the leap from the CBS show to MTV’s main show over the years; some have even won. With The Challenge: USA spinoff, many new cast members from CBS reality TV shows got their first taste of Tj Lavin’s action-packed extravaganza.
That included Alyssa Lopez, among several Bb 24 stars competing in the spinoff. She was also amongst the few from Bb that advanced deep into the season, possibly defying the expectations of some castmates, viewers, and herself.

Based on recent comments on social media, Angela Rummans may have a gripe with how things were set up or explained.

Big Brother was one of four CBS reality TV shows that brought cast members to The Challenge: USA, a spinoff of MTV’s popular competition show.
Among those Big Brother stars was David Alexander, who originally appeared in Season 21 of the CBS show, then returned for Season 22, aka All Stars.
David didn’t have the best showing during his original reality TV show, becoming the first player evicted in Bb 21. He fared slightly better in Bb 22, as the ninth player evicted and got onto the All Stars jury.
However, his appearance as an underdog who defied the odds on The Challenge: USA may have boosted his status in the reality TV world.
He recently opened up about how he’s been training hard to appear on The Challenge again, with three potential shows he could go on.

Yes, the friends faced off, despite Alexander, who lost the daily, trying to appeal to the daily’s winners Big Brother‘s Angela Rummans and Survivor‘s Ben Driebergen to send in Survivor‘s Tyson Apostol or Domenick Abbate. And in the end, it was Alexander who was eliminated. Alexander opens up about that elimination, why he wants to do another season, and more. There seemed to be a real division in the house, with you and Enzo separate from the others. How were you feeling about your standing? David Alexander: I didn’t feel that huge alliance.

The Challenge: USA, Episode 9 will bring the second daily challenge where players compete individually, but it could also show who people are targeting in the game and who’s working together.
Sneak peek footage showing the next daily event arrived hours ahead of the episode’s debut on CBS. It includes Survivor star Domenick Abbate mentioning that the game should reveal some competitors’ intentions.
“This game’s about to get messy because I think we’re gonna start to see people’s true colors out here,” Dom says in a confessional scene.
In the footage, viewers learn that competitors are playing a giant game similar to Connect 4, where they must carry large tokens down to a playing field. The object is to get four tokens lined up in a row on their board before an opponent blocks them.

The key to winning “The Challenge: USA” is to prevail in the Final Challenge, but in order to qualify for that, contestants must first accumulate at least 5,000 throughout the season. At the start of CBS’s reality TV show, each person was given 1,000 in their banks. There are two ways to earn additional funds: win a daily challenge or survive the elimination arena (which lets them steal the losers’ banks).
Most players have already scored the required amount of moolah to get them to the Final Challenge. Below, we give you an update on “The Challenge: USA” money won after eight episodes.

After footage recapped the previous episode’s elimination, The Challenge: USA, Episode 8 opened with host Tj Lavin telling the cast it was time to stop using The Algorithm to determine teams.
Instead, Tj said it’s now an “individual game” from now on, with no more teammates for each daily challenge. Tj told everyone to get out of The Arena.
There are just 14 competitors left: Alyssa Lopez, Justine Ndiba, Cashay Proudfoot, Angela Rummans, Cayla Platt, Sarah Lacina, Desi Williams, Ben Driebergen, Tyson Apostol, Danny McCray, Leo Temory, David Alexander, Domenick Abbate, and Enzo Palumbo.
Ben and Danny talked about having each other’s back, possibly forming a secret alliance that also had Sarah in it. Ben said he won all the time on Survivor and expected to do the same on this show, but it hasn’t happened so far.

One of the notable aspects of The Challenge: USA spinoff is that it only features one familiar face from MTV’s main show, and that’s the host, Tj Lavin.
However, none of the popular competitors from MTV’s show are part of CBS’ spinoff. Instead, the cast members are from Amazing Race, Big Brother, Love Island, and Survivor.
Big Brother brought multiple competitors from Season 23 of their show to The Challenge: the USA. That includes Kyland Young, who became part of a “three-headed monster” that others were looking to oust from the CBS spinoff show.
In interviews ahead of the premiere episode, he’d mentioned that he studied up on his Challenge history, watching previous seasons of MTV’s show in preparation for the spinoff.

The Challenge: USA continues to move full speed ahead towards Tj Lavin’s final, where the winners will receive their share of significant prize money.
While the particulars for the final are still unknown, it’s become clear that CBS has given The Challenge spinoff a much larger audience than MTV’s show.
Based on ratings reports, the show has many more people watching when new episodes arrive each week compared to the main show on MTV.
Episode 7 brought several exciting storylines, including a cast member ready to leave the show due to issues back home and a pair of in-game rivals forced to work together as teammates.
It also brought another close elimination matchup, with two more winners having to exit the show, as two other cast members survived for another week.

With The Challenge: USA, cast members learned of a surprising twist at the end of the premiere episode featuring The Algorithm, a program that would randomly give them a new teammate for each daily challenge.
The Algorithm appears at the start of each episode, as host Tj Lavin reveals who the new teammates are heading into the next day’s event. He indicated that it would ensure nobody was teamed up with the same person twice until that was no longer possible.
The Algorithm produced some exciting pairings, including an early situation where exes Cashay Proudfoot and Cinco Holland got randomly paired up for a daily challenge despite having broken up months ago. Somehow, they managed to co-exist.

“How many times did Madonna get married?” That was Kyland Young and Kyra Green’s downfall on The Challenge: USA. The Big Brother and Love Island pair were sent into elimination by the daily challenge’s winners Domenick Abbate (Survivor) and Cayla Platt (The Amazing Race) to face off with losers Alyssa Lopez (Big Brother) and Leo Temory (The Amazing Race) in the latest episode. And it was a rare elimination that included a trivia component: The teams had to lift medicine balls with the answers to trivia questions up on a platform. Young and Green break down their elimination and discuss how show alliances fell apart. Kyland, Angela spoke about how while she was working with you, she had to look out for herself. Talk about that alliance you two and Tyson had. How much did you trust each other? Young: Oh, pretty well. These confessionals are very piecemealed.

As The Challenge: USA, Episode 7 opened, host Tj Lavin was at The Algorithm board to reveal new teams. Some teams included Enzo Palumbo with Angela Rummans, Danny McCray with Justine Ndiba, David Alexander with Cashay Proudfoot, and Kyland Young with Kyra Green.
Other teams revealed were Leo Temory with Alyssa Lopez, Domenick Abbate with Cayla Platt, Ben Driebergen with Desi Williams, and Tyson Apostol with Sarah Lacina. That made for an interesting pairing after what happened several episodes ago where Tyson sent Sarah and Leo into elimination.
Back at the house, Kyland spoke with Tyson and Angela about their game plan. In a confessional, Kyland said he knew they were targets in the game. Dom said in a confessional that he’s looking for ways to “break up this three-headed monster.

The seventh episode of “The Challenge: USA,” titled “State of the Unions,” proved to be the end of the road for two fan-fave reality TV stars. One of the eliminated players ended her journey by saying she had “no regrets,” while the other said he hoped to “come back” and play again in the future. Warning: this article contains Spoilers for the August 17 episode of “The Challenge,” so read at your own risk!
The main challenge was a demolition derby-type competition, with Alyssa Lopez and Leo Temory being the first out, which meant they would be entering the elimination challenge. Comp winners Domenick Abbate and Cayla Platt earned the right to send one team to elimination, and they chose Kyra Green and Kyland Young, in part because they wanted to fracture the powerhouse trio of Kyland, Tyson Apostol and Angela Rummans.

In The Challenge: USA, Episode 7, teams will clash in a physical daily challenge for the first time of the season. However, they’ll do some from within some hard-hitting vehicles rather than their bodies.
The latest event will feature Challenge bumper cars as teammates will ride inside the vehicle and navigate a dirt course. Like many other challenges, a twist makes things unique and more difficult.
For this particular daily, the teammate driving the car will be unable to see anything as they’ll have a helmet featuring a blacked-out visor on front.
Their partner will be frantically trying to guide them by shouting out instructions as their teammate does their best to drive while blind.

Derek Xiao and Alyssa Lopez met last summer in the “Big Brother” house, where they were both betrayed by the dominating Cookout alliance. The BFFs were later cast on “The Challenge: USA,” where they vowed to stick together and have each other’s backs throughout the grueling CBS competition. Unfortunately, Derek was eliminated in the sixth episode (alongside his teammate Shannon St. Clair from “Love Island”) when they lost the physical competition to Enzo Palumbo and Justine Ndiba.
The winners of the main challenge were Desiree “Desi” Williams and David Alexander, and they decided to nominate Derek and Shannon for elimination because Shannon had hurt her leg earlier in the episode. Derek and Shannon gave it their all in the final challenge, even getting a head start thanks to their backwards-spelling abilities. However, their stacks of tires kept falling over, which led to a victory for Enzo and Justine.

One of the most intriguing stories to watch on “The Challenge: USA” was that of Cashay Proudfoot and Melvin “Cinco” Holland Jr. They originally met on “Love Island” and then dated in the real world before eventually breaking up. CBS’s new reality TV show brought them both together for a grueling competition, but Cinco (alongside his teammate Azah Awasum) ended up being eliminated in the fifth episode after losing the “Barreled Treasure” game and the “A Dark Turn” elimination challenge.
“I don’t necessarily wanna be with Cinco and I know he doesn’t want to be with me,” a teary-eyed Cashay told the camera after Cinco was eliminated. “But I think a part of me still loves that man. Like, a part of me is still in love with him. I’m grateful to him and our story even though the story of us is officially closed.”

For one of The Challenge: USA plays, the latest episode was his second in a row in elimination. Unfortunately, it didn’t turn out the same way as it did previously. Survivor‘s Tasha Fox and The Amazing Race‘s James Wallington lost the daily challenge after she couldn’t balance the weight in The Challenge‘s version of Hangman. Big Brother‘s Kyland Young and Angela Rummans won, and Wallington had no problem campaigning to go against fellow Amazing Racer Leo Temory. However, instead, the losing pair faced off against Survivor‘s Domenick Abbate and Love Island‘s Cashay Proudfoot in elimination. Despite Abbate making a bad call, Fox and Wallington ended up losing and were eliminated. Here, Fox and Wallington open up about their exit. How’d you each prepare for The Challenge: USA?

The casts of “Survivor” and “The Amazing Race” managed to squeak by the first two weeks of “The Challenge: USA” completely unscathed, but both shows lost contestants during the third episode, which aired Wednesday, July 20.
CBS’s grueling reality TV show said goodbye to teammates Tasha Fox (“Survivor”) and James Wallington (“The Amazing Race”) this week after they failed to complete their puzzle in time during the elimination challenge. It was a close race though, as competitor Domenick Abbate (“Survivor”) failed to plug his water hole and would have been disqualified if not for Cashay Proudfoot (“Love Island”) saving the day for that team by finishing her puzzle in record time.
