Behind the Screen: The Challenge: Rivals - Tyrie Ballard

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.

Long time no see Ty, i'm rooting for him and Davis to put up a good fight :)...

Having come up short in all of his past attempts, Tyrie won't settle for anything less than first place, but worries that the seething past animosity between him and rival partner could stand in his way. Prepare to watch this edgy and fearsome veteran fight tooth and nail in his quest for victory, while still leaving time to romance the ladies.

For some reason I really like to see Ty, hope to see him do well. He is such an oddball in the BMP family that I don't think he'll ever have the chance to run a game or anything.

I don't like him, seems like a lot of talking but not backing it up. Like on the island he said something like 'if we was on the streets I would've wooped Dunbar's *** by now'. I mean come on.. Other than that "******" stuff he seems like a nice guy though and I agree with the post above, that he'll have a chance to run his own game. Also nice earring >.>

I like Tyrie, but he's kind of a waste when it comes to Challenges.

I agree with all of these (But I kind of like the guy). I just don't understand why he doesn't fit in, it's like he doesn't have the skills required to make some friends on these challenges. :fool:

The best chance Tyrie had to win a challenge was the Gauntlet III, which was the one where he left willingly. Had he stayed, he probably would've made it pretty far into the game.

I thought Tyrie lost weight, clearly I'm mistaken.
jesses_girl#10
He definitely lost weight since the Island. He's looking good imo.

User image He really looks good now, almost looks like a different man. The picture on the left is from Denver, middle is Rivals and then the last is most recent from BOTExes.
wutzrenzi#13
Wow, hopefully with the weight lost he can be more agile and perform better.
CherryPie#14
Wow, that's very impressive, he must feel so good about himself! He now looks like an actual contender. Let's see what Jasmine and him have in the tank.

I'm hoping that he and Jaz can be the Jaz/Jonna of the season and make it really far even though they are way underestimated.
