Fans are getting their weekly fix of “The Challenge” with “All Stars: Rivals” while production prepares to start filming season 41. The cast is set to head to Chile any day now. The format remains unclear, but several vets are returning, along with a slew of rookies.
Reliable spoiler accounts, Gamer and PinkRose on Vevmo, have shared who fans can expect to see on season 41. While this remains speculation until MTV makes an official announcement, these sources have a strong track record of accurately predicting the cast.
Note: MAJOR SPOILERS ahead!
These Vets Are Returning to Compete on Season 41 of ‘The Challenge’
Aneesa Ferreira
Ferreira is currently competing on All Stars: Rivals and season 41 will mark her 20th season of competition. While she has never taken home the grand prize, she is a four-time finalist.
Aviv Melmed Bruno
Bruno came back to compete on season 40 “Battle of the Eras,” after taking a 20-year break. This will be the second season in a row for the 1x champion. Fans should expect another strong showing in her 3rd season.
Cara Maria Sorbello
Sorbello is back for her 17th season. While the 2-time champion has found herself in hot water with fans, her co-stars, and even MTV, she is a staple on the show.
Derek Chavez
Another fan-favorite, Chavez, is back for his 7th season and is coming off his best finish ever. The 2-time finalist was runner-up to one of the GOATS, Jordan Wiseley, on season 40.
Johnny Bananas
Love him or hate him, Bananas is back for his 25th season. The 7-time champion was last seen on “Battle of the Eras” with his “Angels.” While his gaggle of gals may have split first place, Bananas came in third behind Wiseley and Chavez.
Leroy Garrett
In his 15 seasons, Garrett has competed in six finals but has yet to secure a championship. His career has been marked by impressive performances, particularly in team and partner formats, but he’s often fallen just short of victory. Maybe “The Challenge” season 41 will see him taking home the grand prize since he came out of retirement to do it.
Nia Moore
Moore might be best known for getting disqualified from her one and only final on “Battle of the Exes II.” She came back on “All Stars 3,” showing a calmer and much more mature side while still having that competitive edge.
CT Tamburello
Tamburello is back for his 22nd season and five championships to his name, he’s another player considered one of the GOATS. He made an early exit in season 41 after winning back-to-back in seasons 36 and 37. Fans are surely hoping he sticks around a little longer this time around
Nany González
González is coming back fresh off her split from Kaycee Clark for season 41, adding another chapter to her long-running career. Over her 18 seasons, she has competed in the final twice, coming up just short of taking home the grand prize on “Ride or Dies.”
Derrick Kosinski
Truly one of the toughest competitors to ever compete on “The Challenge”—see season 41 for reference—Kosinski is back for his 16th season. The 3-time champion is hoping to take home his first win since “The Ruins” in 2009.
Olivia Kaiser
Kaiser is back for her fourth season, where she has quickly made a name for herself as a fierce competitor despite her rookie status. She made it to the finals in “Ride or Dies” only to be taken out by one of the most gruesome injuries in the show’s history.
Theo Campbell
Campbell is back for his fifth season. The two-time finalist is known for being a prolific athlete. He even came in second on “War of the Worlds,” which some have called the toughest final ever. He also comes in with a girlfriend….Olivia Kaiser.
Turabi “Turbo” Camkiran
Possibly the most controversial contestant to ever compete on the show, Camkiran is back for his 5th season. The 1-time champion is known for his short temper and many, many confrontations—one of which got him kicked off “War of the Worlds 2.”
‘The Challenge’ Season 41 Is Introducing a Massive Amount of Rookies
America Lopez
Lopez was a houseguest on “Big Brother 25.” She became known for her strategic gameplay and sharp social skills, which should help her navigate “The Challenge.” She is also no stranger to a showmance, which you know fans love.
Blue Kim
Kim is also from “Big Brother 25.” During her season, her allegiance to her alliance became her downfall, which is a common storyline on “The Challenge.” She was also known for stirring up a little drama, so she should fit in perfectly in a “Challenge” house.
Coye Simmons
Simmons joined “Love Island USA” Season 6 on Day 1 and coupled up with JaNa Craig. However, he struggled to form a strong connection and was dumped from the villa by Day 4, making him the season’s first eliminated contestant. Hopefully, this is not a pattern, and he makes it past the first challenge.
Yeremi Hykel
Hykel competed on “The Amazing Race 35″ alongside his younger brother. The Marine Corps vet credited his military experience and adaptability with helping him navigate the race’s demands, skills that would also help him compete on “The Challenge.”
Dianelys “Dee” Valladares
Valladares made a name for herself by winning “Survivor 45” with her fierce competitive spirit, strong social game, and bold strategic moves. As she joins “The Challenge” for season 41, she is hoping to add “Challenge” champ to her mantle as well.
Ayoleka Sodade
Sodade is a former Division I athlete and strength and conditioning coach who made a name for herself on “Canada’s Ultimate Challenge.”
Justin Hinsley
Hinsley, a Navarro College cheerleader, appeared in both seasons of Netflix’s “Cheer.” He is another college athlete whose team-first experience should help him navigate competing on “The Challenge.”
Sydney Segal
Segal, known for her appearance on “Survivor 41,” is set to join the cast of “The Challenge” season 41. As a law student and former cross-country state champion, Segal brings a blend of intellectual and athletic prowess to the competition.
“The Challenge” season 41 competitors are reportedly already headed to Chile to film. No word yet on a premiere date.
