Once the verdict was delivered on Season 3 of All-Stars back on July 6th following the long holiday weekend, the attention turned to a totally different version of the show as twenty-eight alums of the Eye network's reality programming stepped up to the plate to face TJ Lavin. In a field full of alumni from Big Brother, Survivor, Amazing Race and the CBS run of Love Island, it was a mixture of them that excelled down a rope and a skyscraper in the season's opening daily, including a Sole Survivor used to playing games like this and someone pegged for big success considering his NFL background. And just after we began what might be another one of those seasons on THAT show, it was one-third of The Cookout that took the season's first elimination in a familiar game to Challenge Nation, Knot So Fast.
At night's end, the host duked out his latest Teej-bomb to what is undoubtedly the largest set of fresh meat he's ever had to welcome out of the gate: the pairs who are teamed up each week will not be the same from week to week... and an Algorithm will recouple the players at the end of each night in the arena. And as we return, the Americans will doubt be stung by this latest twist... but they have not much time to ponder that as they face a life-like game of Scrabble combined with everyone's favorite place to wipe out on a place like this: in the water. This week represents an opportunity for a legend of the island to put their stamp on this game two weeks in, while the looming shadow of a summer houseguest might be too much to handle -- including our favorite alternative word for getting backstabbed.
After the break, DCBLOG brings you the 'Pulse of Week 2 of The Challenge: USA... and welcome back.

@gangstaGURRY: It’s crazy to think I’ve been watching @TysonApostol on TV for literally over a decade and he is just like a fine wine: keeps getting better and better with time.
@UnOffChallPod: Calling it now, Tyson will be the confessional king this season! @TysonApostol #TheChallengeUSA #TheChallenge
@tvtalkswithtom: Tyson: “Are those model muscles or are those practical muscles?” Lmfao this man is gold 🤣🤣 #TheChallengeUSA @TysonApostol
@Philltastic1: This makes me sad we never see @TysonApostol going full beast mode considering his only real season where he plays in more than 2 individual challenges, he's injured and throwing them. #TheChallengeUSA #Survivor
@realgoverturf: @TysonApostol about to be the first person to do a clean sweep of all the challenges (not fact checked, first season of watching the challenge)

@Irving_A07: Cayla & James are being set up 😤😤😤 #TheChallengeUSA #TheChallengeCBS
@Irving_A07: Not Tyson & Justine and Cinco & Cashay being partners for the next challenge. The algorithm is DIRTY!! #TheChallengeUSA #TheChallengeCBS
@TheAllanAguirre: The Music on the Challenge USA is painfully generic #TheChallengeUSA
- @Dumbledore_BB: @TheAllanAguirre The All Stars music supervisor is deeply missed 😵💫
- @Tikitackfouls: @TheAllanAguirre Yeah the music is an underappreciated part of the mtv one
- @Humble_demeanor: @TheAllanAguirre I miss the music from all stars.
- @LiterallyErin: @TheAllanAguirre like la croix of the mtv challenge does this make sense lol
@MikeyG_TBD: So we’re just trusting production that these teams are random? 🤨 #TheChallengeUSA
- @Irving_A07: @MikeyG_TBD My first thought when it was announced last week. The Cashay and Cinco pairing sealed it for me tonight
@CFConfessionals: Yes, I watch the news. Yes, I keep up with current events. #TheChallengeUSA
@CohenBrian_: That algorithm sure is lucky with Cashay and Cinco to make sure they’re paired before potentially one of them gets sent home. #TheChallengeUSA
- @TheSteamer: @CohenBrian_ Wait a second. Are you implying that that could be rigged?! I know that’s not what you’re implying! #TheChallengeUSA
- @alexxarnold: @CohenBrian_ Production couldn’t wait at least one episode to make it obvious they have their hands on this?
@MikeyG_TBD: Wordle should’ve prepared everyone for this challenge wtf #TheChallengeUSA
@Brian_Scally: TJ has no idea the shady shit producers just pulled #TheChallengeUSA
@Irving_A07: 15mins into the second episode and David has yet to have a confessional this season 👀 #TheChallengeUSA #TheChallengeCBS
@CFConfessionals: Low-key thought we were getting a Shauvon moment when James hit the water. Honestly, both icons. #TheChallengeUSA
@Irving_A07: Yesss Tyson in water #TheChallengeCBS #TheChallengeUSA
@TheAllanAguirre: Nobody: Tyson: Wanna see me make another trip? #TheChallengeUSA
@TheAllanAguirre: Tyson and Justine win the 2nd Daily Challenge of the season! Back to back for Tyson. Dude is built different. Also, Justine was very impressive physically and mentally in this challenge. #TheChallengeUSA
@TanishaaG: The #ChallengeUSA is a much more positive viewing experience than #BB24.
@Irving_A07: Team brains brawn and beauty right here 🤩 #ChallengeUSA #TheChallengeCBS @JustineJoy312 @TysonApostol
@Irving_A07: I just love how much awareness James has in the game to know Tiffany is the glue in the BB alliance. Strategic King continues to dominate #TheChallengeUSA #TheChallengeCBS
@Irving_A07: I really wish we had 90mins episodes or extra episodes on paramount+ I feel like were missing out on so much information tonight! @CBS @CBSTweet @TheChallenge @paramountplus
@CohenBrian_: I can’t wait for future eliminations called: “Fired Tokens,” “Do or Tie Dye” and “Beware or be there” #TheChallengeUSA
@Irving_A07: Not Tiffany trying to protect Xavier only for him to be like, yup. Better her than me #TheChallengeUSA #TheChallengeCBS
@TheAllanAguirre: Tyson guiding Justine through her first blindside is the cutest thing in the most dastardly way ever #TheChallengeUSA
@ChallengeMTV: 2 weeks in a row the USA version eats up the mtv shitdown. Aren’t you embarrassed? @mtv
- @RobbieCoachella: @ChallengeMTV @MTV It’s not even on anymore. MTV challenges are over for now.
@rainbr0jesus: idk who james is but his social game is really giving mastermind #TheChallengeUSA
@CohenBrian_: The Challenge broke Jacob Jones.

@TAKEMEBACK2LA: Tiffany's suggesting Alyssa go in, hmm. That's interesting. So it shouldn't be a big deal that Alyssa wants to get The CO out right? #TheChallengeUSA
@TAKEMEBACK2LA: this algorithm is so cool, i wish they'd bring it to the main show so that pairs aren't so predictable. #TheChallengeUSA
- @jaychallenge1: @TAKEMEBACK2LA They would never cause it can’t protect their favs
@CSUGradAkirk: Hilarious that Cinco got paired randomly with his ex cashay for them it’s probably better to get out of the way though #ChallengeUSA
@emilylongeretta: Can I be best friends with @CashayProudfoot tho? #TheChallengeUSA
@GamerVev: Cashay vs Tiffany was providing the messy female drama we’ve needed. Love a good rival storyline So proud of Queen Shannon for getting 2nd place ❤️❤️❤️
@TheChallenge: Jump into episode 2️⃣ of #TheChallengeUSA streaming now on @paramountplus! 🇺🇸
@DayDaVonne_: It’s the sound effects for me … why am I like this ?! 😂🥴 Anyway … make sure to go check out Episode 2 of #TheChallengeUSA podcast. @DevynSimone and I had the pleasure of chatting with “THE GLUE” 👀 lol the mastermind herself @absolutelytiff. ✨✨✨ podcasts.apple.com
@JamesWallington: Y’all, can we put a little more respect on my name? 🤪 I’m a winner of #AmazingRace & I was asked to do #TheChallengeUSA for a reason. 👏🏻 I 👏🏻 CAME 👏🏻 TO 👏🏻 COMPETE. 👏🏻 But I was predicted by many to be first boot or “weak”. 💜🥹🙌🏻
@kylandyoung: Not shown in tonight's episode of @TheChallenge: During that super hard buoy thing, @absolutelytiff surprised some (not me 😉), w/ an amazing effort! However she had a bad fall, injuring her ankle. So she was pedaling that bike a long as time, while hurt!! 🙌🏾👑🌹
@kylandyoung: Btw, this isn't meant to take away anything from James & Cayla - I know they had their own pains, and killed it! Congrats on a solid win! 🤟🏾🏆 Just wanted to give some props to Tiff since that detail wasn't shown! 🌹
@kylandyoung: Ps. I'm just here to give props 🙌🏾🌹, and not interested in discussing any of the drama. Take it elsewhere, or enjoy talking to yourselves. 💓 #AllLove

@BunimMurray: "@survivorhorny: I know I’m late to the party but I just watched episode 1 of #TheChallengeUSA and I enjoyed this premiere more than I thought I would. I’m so glad that the show still toned like a mtv show" RT It’s never too late to join the party ❤️
@GamerVev: "@OTHPod_: The main show can’t relate 🥰" RT MTV version needs to be CANCELLED! Keep All Stars, USA, and the intl versions. The MTV one is DEAD! That cast (Devin, Tori, Nelson, etc.) need to start finding careers 🤭
@JamesWallington: How do you celebrate an Elimination win on @TheChallenge? 🤔✨ By going to @UniversalORL, duh. 💜 We’re on our way! @Cayla_Platt_ @CashayProudfoot @shannonsaint3 #TheChallengeUSA
@ChallengeMTV: CBS girlies giving us twitter drama. We’ve been asking for this for so long
@CohenBrian_: It was a thrill but also a bummer to speak with the next two eliminated from #TheChallengeUSA https://t.co/gkrfhi9kYm
@CohenBrian_: Yeaaaa buoy, the podcast is here #TheChallengeUSA https://t.co/BDeqrnyax8
@ChallengeFanOG: Every time is see a Challenger who can’t swim say “F it” and jump in anyway, I always think it’s so bad ass. @CashayProudfoot #TheChallengeUSA @TheChallenge
@T_Babiii_: To the ppl on #TheChallengeUSA I hope u made sure to chk out all of @TysonApostol appearances on #Survivor . I've seen em all and let me warn you all in advance he is a beast! A winner..an Allstar...a manipulator..a liar and has the mamba mentality! He's coming for you all!😈
@TheAllanAguirre: Tyson's smile after taking a hard hit in the water in yesterday's challenge is giving me life. #TheChallengeUSA
@CFConfessionals: The "Music" on the Challenge USA is woefully generic. This was not the most exciting elimination ever, but the fact we had to watch them cycle to boring background music didn't help. Music is critical to the Challenge. Good music elevates big moments. #TheChallengeUSA
@CFConfessionals: CINCO CARRYING TIFFANY ALL THE WAY TO THE TOP BUNK. Give us the TV-MA or even PG-13 Edition of this show, please. #TheChallengeUSA

@v_cakes: #TheChallengeUSA cast > MTV flagship cast ❤️❤️❤️
@jaychallenge1: Not 5 challenge vets have told me the cbs challenge is way better than the main show i know y’all embarrassed @TheChallenge
- @RyanJohn___: @jaychallenge1 They aren’t wrong. I’ll admit I was hesitant about the cbs version at first but it’s providing both on tv and social media drama
- @blakeshoh: @jaychallenge1 “USA” should let all ppl from USA on the show but make cbs ppl more a priority over the rest
- @Micheleford69: It’s actually an mtv show so no to the cbs only people!!!! Do you even watch The Challenge!!!!!
- @Schoolyard24: @jaychallenge1 MTV should have had their own challengers and been part of this world competition. Just my thought.
- @j9sween1: They are they will compete against the final team after USA/UK/Australia competitions
- @ElCerebr0: @jaychallenge1: No way you believe that lolol just the name itself proves it's laughable. "Challenge USA" but it's being filmed in my country and not the US 🤣
- @phoenixrisng821: All the challenges are filmed in other countries. Except when it started as Road Rules vs Real World.
- @RealityLindsey: @jaychallenge1: One of them told me that she thinks mtv franchise is done now after the first episode of USA😩
- @KingStaxx91: @jaychallenge1 Moral of the story: keep Big Brother away from the main show, and make them duke it out amongst each other.
@TheChallenge: In a Big Brother-style blindside, Tiffany and Cashel find themselves down in elimination against Amazing Racers (and cyclers! 😉), James and Cayla. 🚲 #TheChallengeUSA
@JamesWallington: Going into @thechallenge 🇺🇸, my biggest fear was facing an Elimination but I couldn’t have asked for a better partner to overcome it with. 🥰✨💜 Beyond grateful for the friendship that blossomed from this experience. Love you @Cayla_Platt_. 🫶🏻 #TheChallengeUSA #AmazingRace
- @Cayla_Platt_: @JamesWallington Couldn’t have said it better myself 💜 ILYSM, what an incredible experience! 💪🏻🇺🇸

MOMENT OF THE NIGHT
Getting Blindsided by a Bike
And James and Cayla, you two have the Moment of the Night in this elimination win... it's safe to say that despite being far outnumbered in representation here, they and Leo are proving that if you go on The Amazing Race, you can definitely prove your worth going on that global Road Rules.

Well we can finally say, you are now up to date... it has taken a while after doing some fourteen posts over the past few weeks to get ourselves caught up on the episodes and on the preseason matters.
A little reminder that we had planned on doing weekly coverage of the two Shore series on All-Star Shore and Buckhead Shore... but because of the length of the past few weeks' content we'll instead be doing Shore WRAP's of the season's top moments coming up at summer's end, along with the top moments from this spring & summer's stay in Siesta Key. But it does clear the way for us to offer our many ExtraTime stories that will appear here the rest of the summer and before things get crazy with Season 38 of The Challenge that's currently filming right now, among other things.
For now, be with us this weekend when we cover this week's Episode 3... and join the blogger on Twitter @ DCNOW as I get to live watch the first two episodes of this Challenge at @DC408DxNow coming up later tonight. Have a safe week ahead, Challenge Nation...
