“The Challenge” wouldn’t be “The Challenge” without a healthy dose of post-season squabbling. So, as season 40 wraps up, MTV gifts us with a supersized, 90-minute reunion special, likely to deliver another round of fireworks. Part two of this reunion extravaganza airs Wednesday, January 22nd, at 8:00 PM.
With T.J. Lavin presiding over the proceedings like a referee in a particularly rowdy steel cage match, expect the usual suspects to rehash old grievances, questionable alliances, and those inevitable “I was playing the game” justifications. After a season of jungle-based strategizing, backstabbing, and the occasional surprisingly competent physical feat, there’s plenty of ground to cover.
This reunion installment is poised to address lingering questions and offer a peek behind the curtain of the season’s most dramatic moments. Did any of those fragile alliances forged in the heat of the jungle survive the trip back to civilization? Which contestants are still nursing grudges?
Tune in to MTV this Wednesday at 8:00 PM to witness the fallout.
