We are heading towards the homestretch of what's been a very eventful season of The Challenge: Battle of the Exes II, along with the last two episodes of Real World Skeletons coming up tonight. This week will see us witness the big twist of the last two teams of the new Battle of the Exiled tournament duke it out in the Dome, while we see the second of Madison's skeletons and more drama as the season in Chicago reaches its conclusion.
But before those episodes tonight, airing as part of what I like to call "Double Shot Tuesday" with both shows airing back to back, as is customary here on DCBLOG we like to focus in on stories relating to these shows. I like to always think of this site as a compliment to those that offer recaps and rankings in finding my own niche in offering a unique view on this franchise and tell the stories of the people of these shows.
And in this dedicated edition of DC ExtraTime, we want to share with you the story about a key figure on Exes 2 this season and where she and her partner were surprisingly beaten in the Dome much earlier than expected in stunning fashion, and an emotional story she experienced during her Real World season four years ago.

We've written on here of how the RW/Challenge family dealt with the losses of Diem Brown & Ryan Knight last November, but some of the Battle of the Exes 2 cast have also dealt with the passings of a friend or loved one themselves. Ten years ago, Wes' RW Austin cast provided comfort to Danny when his mom died of a fatal heart attack back home in Boston. That was the same feeling the Ex-Plosion cast went through last year when Jay also dealt with his cancer-ridden mom also suddenly passing away after she was rushed to the hospital in New York. And Leroy suddenly shed tears when a friend of his was gunned down by Detroit police near the end of Real World Back to Vegas. And that's only a handful of those emotional moments that have made us cry and appreciate life even more, especially given the events that happened within two weeks prior to the launch of Exes 2 late last autumn.
As she became a huge story on Exes 2 as part of a favored team that surprisingly lost in the Dome in EP5 and then returning as part of the Exile battle that we will see in tonight's episode, this fall will be five years since Nany made that trek from Buffalo to film RW XXV. But aside from being one of the most beautiful girls on this franchise, she also had one of the toughest stories that we've had in recent years. Aside from bailing out of a 6-year relationship with her boyfriend back home, and of course dealing with bad boy Adam in Sin City, Nany came to The Real World not only to experience the life of being free for the first time outside Western New York, she also had some unfinished family business to attend to.
