Back on Friday on here, we resumed covering the Paramount+ spinoff with the game getting serious and key men on two alliances realizing that money is a bigger thing, as Nehemiah's Palace alliance and Brad's group are on opposite ends. They and the rest of the players took to the skies for a Mad Max mission that saw them tackle the same kind of challenge that we've been seeing on the main show itself. But a zoom conversation that she had back home with her fiancé in Texas revealed that life can be bigger - and Casey's prognosis of being pregnant forced her and Cohutta to head home.
Whenever the amount of players are getting down to just a handful in the house, then we know this is gonna get more testy... and the one sign that the final is nearing is when TJ Lavin gives the players a test worthy enough to determine who really is in it. As we return to Cancun, the Stars are embarking on a mini-final that will see the teams -- now paired up with one another for the rest of the season -- put their partnerships to the test... and whoever comes away with being power team will be in a strong position to perhaps pull off a power move. And if you thought you've seen everything on All-Stars, then a familiar scenario of an odd plate of food could prove to be fatal to one team's chances.
After the break, we bring this weekend to an end with the 'Pulse of Episode 8 of All-Stars 2, and we'll also delve into future plans for this coming month from yours truly. Thanks for joining us...

@kmacisco: I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again. Geordie Shore is the BEST show ever created
@kmacisco: It’s also a shame we haven’t gotten more cast members from this on @ChallengeMTV. Charlotte, Chloe, Scotty T…PERFECTION
@anthonyxreality Why do I feel like that All Star Shore show is actually an I Love Money revival. I remember Viacom renewing the trademark for I Love Money not too long ago
- @GamerVev: @anthonyxreality It’s being titled Celebrity Shore & still seems a bit different from ILM format, I definitely get those vibes from this show though.
- @Challengemtv___: @GamerVev @anthonyxreality Yeah- Silly competitions with a lot of the girls being far from being athletes and over the top drama And better than The Challenge!
@JennaCompono: I’m going to be 29 in four days Smiling face with tear
@CohenBrian_: If War of the Worlds hadn't fumbled the end game with the individual winner it would've been an absolute top tier level season. Peak Wes even helped overcome the Paulie/Cara/Kyle of it all.
@NehemiahMTV: I cannot express how appreciative I am of all of you. Even the ones who send me bad messages, it means the world and I love you all!
@ItsJazzyRey: I am so sad about John Madden. I’m a southern Texas girl that learned football from birth!! I learned X’s & O’s Like Sesame Street. A legend who all we learned about football is gone. My heart and prayers go to his family . #MaddenFotLife
@ayannasuperhero: RIP John Madden. I remember when Ethan Albright wen in on him for his rank in the game, 1 of the funniest letters I've ever read, lmao! Def, one 4 the books. Toast up 2 U.
@ChallengeMTV: Here's this year's royal family portrait (iykyk Winking face)
@ChallengeMTV: With the house split down the middle, everyone's looking to secure safety for themselves AND their alliances. Stream an all-new episode of #TheChallengeAllStars2 tomorrow only on @paramountplus!
- @TinaBarta: @ChallengeMTV I should be in this!
@TheMarkLong: All Stars 2 playlist so far #TheChallengeAllStars #TheChallengeAllStars2@paramountplus @WeWantOGs https://t.co/3mpU2UGZrF
@ChallengeMTV: *watches Don't Look Up for the first time*
@TheAllanAguirre: I JUST PUBLISHED: The Top 10 Most Satisfying Wins in MTV Challenge History #TheChallenge37 #TheChallengeAllStars2 https://t.co/KgsjNTMuTr
- @TheAllanAguirre: Nothing is better than a Challenge season ending and having a good feeling in your stomach. From players like CT, Cara, and Paula finally getting over the hump, to an underdog like Ashley pulling out a win on Invasion. Take a stroll down memory lane to either agree or disagree.
@TheAllanAguirre: Paula won Rivals 1 on her 8th Season of the Challenge. When researching for my newest article, I realized when Rivals 1 aired, no Female Competitor had done more than 8 Seasons. That's fucking crazy to think about, and gives you hope for your favorites without a win.
@TheAllanAguirre: Nothing is better than a Challenge season ending and having a good feeling in your stomach. From players like CT, Cara, and Paula finally getting over the hump, to an underdog like Ashley pulling out a win on Invasion. Take a stroll down memory lane to either agree or disagree.
@TeckHolmes: I hope and pray everyone is enjoying the holiday season. I know it can be a bit of a downer for some people. But always remember that life is a gift so be present everyday (I’m really just talking to myself) cheers!
@ChallengeMTV: What's better than one birthday? Two!! Happy Birthday, @NamVoOfficial1 & Jeremiah
- @NamVoOfficial1: @ChallengeMTV Thank you! Much Love!
@NamVoOfficial1: 'Happy Birthday to me This year was definitely a tough year with ups and downs. I appreciate all the people who came into my life and make it much brighter. And I appreciate every single person who follows and supports me on my journey! Just want to say thank you!
@CoreyLay: 2021 was one for the books! I'm reflecting over the year and remembering my "why". Being unapologetically myself, as a queer Black man, is more valuable to me than anything. Being on The Challenge was part of this amazing journey.
@CoreyLay: I didn't have many people to represent me growing up so I'm happy to be visible for anyone out there who needs to see it. If even one single person feels seen because of me I'm happy. I'm looking forward to a prosperous 2022.
@ChallengeMTV: Need a ride?
@mtvrrdarrell: You ate what?! All new episode of #TheChallengeAllStars2 is streaming on @paramountplus @ChallengeMTV

It was never about Jazz at all :), I knew we'd be good in the daylight. Yeah @ItsJazzyRey DEF brought the pain on the clapback! That's my gurl!

@JustJem24: "@normalgirlvibes: @JustJem24 I’mma agree just bc Nehemiah was being petty for kicking Jonna out, but Ayanna def royalty. The dudes screaming at their partners for no reason this challenge, not so much" RT @ayannasuperhero is ICONIC
@RudnickRants: One of the best things to come out of 2021 is @MTVAllStars on @paramountplus Thank you @TheMarkLong for believing in your vision and being the advocate to bring back a show fans actually want to see.
@LP1822: #TheChallengeAllStars2 time. Let’s go @mtvrrdarrell and @MelindastolpMTV. Can’t say this enough what a cast. What a season. Every week when someone goes it’s sad.

@RyanJohn___: Ayanna is so cracked for this
- @MikeyG_TBD: @RyanJohn___ ok so yea I’m gonna turn this episode on right now because this just sent me
- @RyanJohn___: @MikeyG_TBD Lol Ayanna is unhinged in such an entertaining way. Perfect for reality tv
@Irving_A07: Starting #TheChallengeAllStars #TheChallengeAllStars2 Star-struck I like Nehemiah but he makes it harder by the episode
@Irving_A07: I am here for the chaos that is Teck and Ayanna as partners #TheChallengeAllStars2 #TheChallengeAllStars
@Irving_A07: Ayanna is me, I say this all the time but the hardest part of The Challenge for me wouldn’t be the challenges, it would be living with a bunch of messy people. I’ve lived on my own for way too long I just can’t put up with that stuff #TheChallengeAllStars #TheChallengeAllStars2
@Irving_A07: “It’s a Greek motherfucking salad” - @ItsJazzyRey Line of the season!! #TheChallengeAllStars2 #TheChallengeAllStars
@Irving_A07: Ayanna is a QUEEN! Eat all the salads girl, you deserve them all #TheChallengeAllStars2 #TheChallengeAllStars

@WestonBergmann: Fantastic episode of All Stars today. I haven’t LOL’d at a show that hard in years. Full recap, featuring our GUEST STAR, Nehemiah Clark - live now, only on Patreon. @NehemiahMTV
@CohenBrian_: Congrats to the legend himself @tjlavin on his induction into the BMX Hall of Fame. Next let’s get him his well deserved Emmy.
@CohenBrian_: Love her or hate her but Tori’s Hall Brawl win over Jenny is maybe the most impressive elimination victory of all time. #WOWT2
@TheAllanAguirre: I JUST PUBLISHED: The Challenge All Stars 2 Episode 8 Recap & 10 Biggest Takeaways #TheChallengeAllStars2 #TheChallenge #TheChallengeAllStars https://t.co/mSiIE7No2s
- @TheAllanAguirre: Normally, I wait till Friday to post my All Stars 2 Recaps, but tomorrow is basically a Holiday, so get it a Day Early. I breakdown: * King's Palace Battle / * Mini Final / * Greek Salad Problems / * Jonna & MJ being an amazing duo / * Reaction to last week's ending
@TheAllanAguirre: CT hitting the Booger Sugar in a Miami Club before he leaves to film a season knowing he's going against an entire cast of lay-ups.
@TheAllanAguirre: Jonna fans know Jonna is one of the most underappreciated competitors and humans in Challenge History. I fucking love MJ hyped her up and sees her for the badass she is. Jonna has no major weaknesses, has a killer social/political game, and has Real Confidence.
@RealityRadioPod: Jonna’s face! @ayannasuperhero @jonnamtv #TheChallengeAllStars2 #TheChallenge @MTV @paramountplus
@GamerVev: We really were FED this week! #TheChallengeAllStars2 #RWHomecomingLA @paramountplus
@rainbr0jesus: "I ATE THE GREEK SALAD AND I KNEEEEEEEW IT WAS YOURS" AYANNA PLEASEEEE #TheChallengeAllStars2
@Dumbledore_BB: Ayanna and Teck giving us good tv in 2021 still feels like fanfic bonus: MTV reminding the viewers that Zach is a piece of shit and Jonna a queen *chefs kiss* #TheChallengeAllStars
@alleysreel: Ayanna is the reality tv villain I didn’t know I needed. #TheChallengeAllStars2
@ChallengeFanOG: My man @mtvrrdarrell had the “ordacity” to be dropping “performance-ly” and “performance-ly-ness” #TheChallengeAllStars2 @ChallengeMTV @WeWantOGs
@jonnamtv: Guys, I figured out how to log back into my twitter!! #yayme #technologyilliterate
@jonnamtv: I just have to say.. the All Stars 2 is awesome!
@ItsJazzyRey: I am so glad I came back and competed on All Stars! This season was the closet I’ve ever came to a final. Im in a much better head space, my body is getting back into shape. Im ready to go again! You haven’t seen the last of the Queen of Hearts! #TheChallengeAllStars
⭐ ⭐ ⭐
So, we get to say a thanks once again to the one who a lot of us who watch Real World like refer to as Rasheeda... and that comes after she and Laterrian went down in the arena. But the talk is of what happened with Ayanna and that salad, and one would think that perhaps she could make her way to the main show itself, who knows.
Ahead, we'll be covering what we like to call at this site for all intents and purposes "Semifinal Week" -- our definition of the season's last regular challenge and elimination, followed by the final challenge itself. That will come between now and midweek, for which my attention will turn for the second time in a half-year to my favorite event of all.
The Winter Olympics begin on Wednesday, and that means I'll be tuned again to my screens and reacting to what happens on my live Twitter account. #DCGames22 begins Wednesday on DCNOW @DC408DxNow, with Super Bowl LVI to take place in between with all the buzz from Beijing and from Los Angeles... and we'll have another set of Summer of Sports posts to offer during the month of February covering the Olympics, football and much more from the sports world.
And as a couple people have hinted to their Twitter followers, soon year #10 of DCBLOG's MTV posts should begin later this month in previewing the return of Ex On The Beach, plus the usual smattering of ExtraTime and even a look at the next big spinoff to come from the Shore world. And we can't forget about #DCVegas XI -- in order to catch up on all the blog work, the vlogs will resume next weekend to cover my first-ever visit to Fremont St., and all of my videos from Days 1 and 2 -- including my night at Resorts World -- are up now at YouTube.com/dc408dxtr.
So, that's all that we have coming up on here... we hope you'll have a nice week ahead. See you soon.
