Behind the Screen: Battle of the Seasons: Las Vegas - Trishelle, Alton, Du

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.

This is a team that I'm rooting for. I really hope they make it far and win...

Vegas is also my team. Loved that season...

Battle of the Seasons: Las Vegas - Trishelle, Alton, Dustin, Nany

Las Vegas is this season's wild card, as Challenge veterans Trishelle and Alton of The Real World: Las Vegas pair with Back to Las Vegas's Nany and Dustin to form the only team combining two casts. While other teams deal with old grudges, Las Vegas's lack of history could work out in their favor. "A lot of other teams can't stand each other. We're starting fresh," Nany explains. Although Trishelle and Alton are the oldest competitors in the game, their confidence hasn't waned a bit. Trishelle's skills as a professional poker player will be valuable when it comes to game strategy, while Alton remains a physical threat in any challenge. He boasts, "I feel like I'm actually in the best shape of my life, ever. I feel like Alton 2.0." Rookie Nany hopes to prove herself as one of the game's fiercest female players and after being sidelined with a knee injury in Battle of the Exes, Dustin hopes not only to bring home a win, but to finally "put a ring on it" when it comes to former castmate Heather, confessing, "I live with the girl I love now and the only thing left to do is get the ring. This is a real love and I'm ready to make the commitment." Team Las Vegas has all the elements to be a major threat, but with four dynamic personalities involved, could this team's emotional highs and lows be their downfall? via MTV

This is a team that I'm rooting for. I really hope they make it far and win. Oh and Kudos to BMP for bringing Trishelle and Alton back into the challenge fold.

Vegas is also my team. Loved that season! Was hoping for Leroy and Cooke instead (would have been awesome IMO), but Alton and Trishelle are cool too.

So happy Trishelle is back. Just from the trailers it seems like she is going to be a big part of this season. I hope they continue to bring back older castmembers. Coral and Trishelle really seem like they want to do one together, that would be amazing!!

I love this team. They seem strong as hell & really good at stirring up drama as well.
arilicious#8
Considering I never got to see the original Las Vegas, because I know that Alton and Trish are very popular RWers, I'm really excited to finally see them to find out why that season was so great.

Exactly what I was going to say. They're my favorites (for the win and in terms of personalities) with San Diego in second because I don't like all of them. By the way Alton 2.0? How can he be better than how he was before?

Go team Vegas! The second season of Vegas hands down had the best real world cast.

Maybe this version won't mind being shown in a speedo this time. :p

His ***** doesn't fit into the speedo.

He'll explain why.

He wore a speedo on the Gauntlet 2...confused at why he refused to wear on on the Inferno 3.

Maybe he was hiding his phobia of grapes. :locked:

My favorite team by far. Wish all of them make the final and WIN. I like how they combined two seasons into one. I wish could've done the same for NO and SD though
AJHill#17
I love the choice to bring back Alton, who we haven't seen since Inferno 3, and Trishelle, who we haven't seen since The Inferno IIRC. A nice throwback. They should do this kind of thing more often.

You pointed out something that Alton and Trishelle have in common Besides being on the same season... Both of their last challenge apperances was on an Inferno season.

Alton was the guy I always rooted for back in the day so I am ecstatic that he is back. He might have been my most wanted oldschool cast mate I wanted to see return. I really like this Vegas team. I think Dustin can be good at these challenges.
mizwood#20
For some reason when Alton just gone after Inferno 3 I thought that in these days he is fat, out of the shape, marriage with kids and living in the caravan. And now he is back. It's awesome to see him again just the same as he used to be. Team Vegas.
saltvinegar#21
So happy Trishelle's back on my tv! She's so thin now, but she looks great! Aside from Coral, she's the vet I most wanted to see come back.
CherryPie#22
This could be due to editing, but I am the only who thinks it's weird how Trishelle got so bent out of shape over Alton and Sarah, but when Knight was being rude to Nany and trying to break her down, Trishelle wasn't supportive of her at all? She was talking to Knight and almost agreeing with him. That's so shady, I wonder if she's trying to get Nany and Dustin out (or at least she doesn't care if it happens)

If Nany looks like a psycho that has lots of enemies, that can only be a good for Trishelle if Vegas gets sent in.

I think she feels that she needs Alton to win and doesn't really care if Nany stays or not. I also think she's overly concerned about Sarah's ability to manipulate. She's never done a challenge with Sarah and would have probably been better off just to come to her own conclusions about her

Knight said in an interview that Nany and Johnny used to hook up therefore Camila and Nany didn't like each other coming into this challenge.

That's funny, because they really seem to like each other now.
LexBlair#29
Hasn't this been mentioned here before? It was said they used to hook-up for a short period of time......(During the airing of Rivals, I think)
