The Challenge Season 41 final is approaching, and spoilers reveal which cast members will compete for significant prize money.
Season 39 was Battle for a New Champion, and Emanuel Neagu won the solo prize, with Nurys Mateo finishing second.
For Season 40, it was Battle of the Eras, which saw Jordan Wiseley win another season for the men. Jenny West and Rachel Robinson finished in a first-place tie for the women.
In Season 41, viewers might see a pair of new champions, as only one who has previously won The Challenge remains.
The other competitors include former finalists and first-time cast members vying for the win.
Remember that this report will contain spoilers for Season 41 of The Challenge, which MTV has yet to announce.
Eight cast members remain for Season 41
As of this writing, eight cast members will battle in the final for Season 41, previously revealed as The Challenge: New Threats & Vets.
It featured plenty of rookies and a solid group of veteran stars, which included Johnny Bananas, Cara Maria Sorbello, Leroy Garrett, Ashley “Millionaire” Mitchell, Derrick Kosinski, Aviv Melmed, and Nany Gonzalez.
Unfortunately, Nany and Leroy’s quest to win their first season of The Challenge ended within the past several weeks due to elimination.
In addition, Bananas had an exit ahead of the final, allowing him to try Pop the Balloon and end up having another controversial moment.
Four rookies remain: Big Brother’s Cedric Hodges, Amazing Race’s Yeremi Hykel, Married at First Sight UK’s Adrienne Naylor, and Survivor’s Sydney Segal.
Power couple competing for first win in The Challenge final
Several veteran competitors remain with experience in the final. They include War of the Worlds and World Championship finalist Theo Campbell and Ride or Dies finalist Olivia Kaiser.
The duo launched a showmance in Season 40, which seemingly continued off the show. The final format is unknown, but previous spoilers show pairs featured one vet and one rookie. That could mean only Theo or Olivia wins with their rookie partner.
Joining them is Survivor star Michaela Bradshaw. Viewers saw her compete as a rookie in MTV’s Spies, Lies & Allies, but she had an early exit after “the list” got exposed to the show’s vets. She may have tweaked her strategy heading into this sophomore season on MTV or aligned with the right people to reach the final.
Survivor Turkey and Challenge vet Turabi ” Turbo ” Camkiran is leading the way for the finalists. He won The Challenge: War of the Worlds, with just one winner. Theo finished as runner-up that season, making it an intriguing group of finalists for Season 41.
The season began filming in Santiago, Chile, weeks ago, but as viewers have seen, the final could take place in a completely different location. TJ Lavin will return as the show’s host, but it’s unknown how much money the winners will receive and whether any twists might occur at the finish.
The Challenge: All Stars Rivals airs Wednesdays at 8/7c on MTV.
