Not all seasons ofThe Challengeare created equal.
Allow me to set the scene for you: It’s the 29th season ofThe Challenge.
So it’s time to shake things up … or so we think.
The Champions arrive on ‘The Challenge: Invasion of the Champions.'.MTV
And it looks like it’s their lucky day.
For once, there’s no Johnny Bananas or Cara Maria Sorbello standing in their way.
Maybe, just maybe, someone like Cory Wharton or Nelson Thomas can finally win a title.
But where’s the fun in that?
This was for the season.
Because he was (and still is).
(Although that admittedly added to his intimidation factor as well.)
And then, two years later, the legend returned to the game.
And watching the faces of the other competitors who’d previously thought they finally had a chance to win?
Now that was great television.
So the stage was set, and the premise was incredible.
But this is where things take a turn.
Translation: Eliminations would be Underdog vs.
Underdog and Champ vs.
In what world does THAT make sense?!
Champ stuff later in the season anyway, once they’d taken everybody else out.
I mean, imagine if all of the Champs had made it to the final!
THAT would’ve been a freakin’ showdown!
(And yet CT still won because he’s just that good.)
Because if you do, well, let’s just say my temper is worse than Camila’s.
