Behind the Screen: Battle of the Seasons: Cancun - CJ, Derek, Jonna, Jasmi

For over two decades, MTV's The Challenge has been the proving ground where reality TV's fiercest competitors come to cement their legacies. What started as a Real World/Road Rules spinoff has evolved into one of the most physically and mentally demanding competition series on television.

The franchise's expansion — with spinoffs in the USA, UK, Argentina, and Australia — speaks to a global appetite for the brand of cutthroat competition and alliance-driven gameplay that Vevmo's community has been tracking since 2007.

But Yeah this is one of the teams that I'm rooting for...

Battle of the Seasons: Cancun - CJ, Derek, Jonna, Jasmine

Bacchus ·

Team Cancun enters Battle of the Seasons confident that they are the most unified team in the game, claiming that they've grown as close as a family. Having been outsmarted by Wes on Fresh Meat II, former NFL punter and current male model CJ is out to prove he's no chump, vowing, "Just because you model doesn't mean you have to be dumb. I can be a model, but I can be smart in my own ways." Joining CJ is Derek, who after being eliminated first on Cutthroat, is eager to show his team that he has what it takes to compete. Rounding out the team are former Rivals Jonna and Jasmine, who have promised to squash their habitual bickering to unite as teammates. But with these two hot-tempered vixens, anything is possible. However, Jonna has little time for Jasmine when she cuddles up with a hunky player on an opposing team, a move that could infuriate other competitors. But opposing teams beware because, as Jasmine warns, "Anyone messes with my family, they're in for a rude awakening!" Will Cancun's close-knit bond carry them through to the end? Or will political backlash tear this team apart? via MTV

Maybe it is good that I don't watch the actual RW seasons. I loved Jonna on Rivals.

I want to see Jonna really take some chicks down like she never got the chance to on Rivals. Jasmine seems to get better with each challenge, CJ is solid & even Derek looks in better shape. I seem them being a great team.

Not a fan of their season but loved Jonna and Jasmine on rivals! I prefer these girls over the other two on their season.

I wouldn't have mind seeing Ayiiia instead of Jasmine. That would have been hilarious.

Heartthrob CJ to carry this team, Hopefully JJ and Derek can keep up, but I see them sightly holding CJ down due to their size and strength. Cancun is still good in my book though.
Zimuahaha#10
Cancun was one of my favorite seasons. I love Jonna, she is beautiful and she is interesting with all the guy drama all the time. Jasmine is hilarious. The guys are alright too.
Dash_Vegas#11
Definitely my favorite team. Derek acting like he's not rookie status too was funny haha
kinafan2012#12
Derek seems annoying. I though it was ridiculous when he said that St. Thomas didn't know how the game worked. He's been on one challenge and left first. Their experience is almost equal.
Debut Album#13
Yeah Derek really had no place to talk about how St Thomas were Rookies...He's basically in the same boat as them.
CzarEric#14
I'd say their chances are good. I like the combination of size, strength, and agility. Sure, it could hurt them that Derek isn't as strong as CJ or that Jonna and Jasmine are small, but I think overall it's a well-rounded team. I also really like all the teammates, which is probably the only team other I can say that about other than Vegas.
kristalie#15
I wish they would stop inviting Jasmine on these shows. She's not even fun to watch. Ayiiia or Emilee are a billion times more interesting and likable.
WESANDNANYFAN#16
I love Jasmine. I think she is hilarious. I think Cancun had a really good cast so there is a lot of people they could have chosen. I would have loved to see Emilee and Bronne just because we haven't seen much of them since their season.
arilicious#17
I think Emilee said she didn't want to do anymore challenges actually.
Zimuahaha#18
I absolutely HATED Emilee. She was the WORST cast member on that season. Not only was she boring and ugly, but also a brat and had that annoying "valley girl" type of personality. Jasmin, on the other hand, is so hilarious. I like how she's always trying to fight someone, and a big dude just picks her up and brings her someplace else to calm her down haha. Now Bronne, I could get behind. He was freaking hilarious.
arilicious#19
I didn't hate Emilee, I didn't find her boring, I remember her being in a few fights during the show... her voice was kind of annoying at times, but I still liked her wayyy more than Ayiiia (I think Ayiiia would've been better for BGC or something instead of RW). I actually liked that whole cast though, the only one that season that I found 'boring' was Derek. Everyone else was pretty solid though.
keviie#20
I loved this season! I am TEAM CANCUN! So happy they won the first challenge!
mizwood#21
Even thought I was team Austin but I kinda enjoyed Cancun too. Not a fan of CJ or Derek but I like girls. I wish Aiiiya would be here too.
Camille#22
my fave! Emilee said she was an alternate.Ugly?She's pretty, just crazy. J&J rock and are always good tv.CJ is sweet.
kristalie#23
I wish it was Bronne instead of Derrek too. I looooved Bronne.

I really wish Ayiiia would've been on, but I'm also happy with Jasmine and Jonna. I've always loved Jasmine, and Jonna really grew on me in Rivals. All of the Cancun are really great IMO, so any combination would've been great.
ApexWolf#25
CJ rubs me the wrong way, I'd really rather see Bronne or perhaps Joey.
brunett#26
I find this cast boring. The cast dynamic seems to have no real chemistry, or at least not one that grabs my attention.
mizwood#27
I think people find them boring because they all are good guys. We barely saw Derek, CJ is smiling all the time, Jonna is a princese who fall in love with big boy Zach and Jasmine is pretty chilled too this time.

I say the exact opposite. Derek is way more interesting tha Bronne who was just plain boring and tried to hard.

I completely disagree. Derek never did anything memorable during his season. Bronne was great when he threw the fire extinguisher and later cussed out Ayiiia and Emilee, I couldn't stop laughing at that.

Derek never did anything memorable at all, the only thing that set him apart from everyone else was that he's gay.
wutzrenzi#31
I get so irritated when Derek narrates the missions or a small part of an episodes during his confessional. I don't know why but I just do...
