Behind the Screen: The Challenge: All Stars - Syrus Yarbrough

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.

Had they send in Easy I feel like he would have had a great chance (without the ankle in jury). I hope if he does come back they bring back Beth as well as someone from his OG season like I dunno...

Elka!!!

Also ...much respect for him to take on Alton instead of Easy.... although would have loved to see him take him out.   He would have beaten Easy even with his bum ankle

LOLOL. Yup. He has a lot of Danny and Tyrie in him. In his head, he's a dominant beast. Unfortunately he's hasn't done much to prove it both now and 15 years ago

Lol Syrus is a MESS.  Emotional, new rivalry, and messy = invite back

I listened to the Reali-TEA podcast with Syrus  and he made a compelling case that Alton was trying to sabotage him in the mission.  Apparently Alton tried to get Jisela to vote in Syrus in a previous deliberation.  And if that team lost, no way was anyone voting in Alton or Yes so it would have 100% Syrus.   Also, if every girl in the cast and Syrus on a bad ankle could do it why did he need to stop 5 times?

I would've stayed if he listened and gone against Big Easy because no way his *** was getting up and down them walls

Imagine Easy trying to climb over one wall?   Has syrus never watched Alton compete in a challenge?

Consider that Syrus' injury wasn't going to heal itself anytime soon, and other than giving him an ice pack, production wasn't doing anything for him; so, what are his options for the most camera time, knowing that he probably won't win against any of the guys IF production fields an elimination event that would stress his bad ankle?   I think he got the best edit he was going to get from any elimination.  Obviously, if Beth had known it was going to be a double elimination, she would have tried to talk Syrus into going against Big Easy.  Yet, from Syrus' perspective, he would probably rather go out against a beast of a compeitior who he thought had wronged him (or made it seem that way, keeping a rivalry relevant), rather than be humilited losing against Big Easy and probably Katie.  Both Beth and Aneesa were just strays on the set for this elimination.

This episode and the flashbacks changed my opinion of Syrus. He kinda sucks. Super delusional and whiney. V1 brings up a great point that made the twist super unfair, it was unfair for Beth to go in but have no say in who like Syrus did.

flyguy#38

Beth came in last, since when was that unfair

anon12423452355...#39

It was unfair that she didn't she was going in till she got there, if she knew she was going in that would have changed the strategy for voting.

It was clearly an emotional and idiotic decision by Syrus. Beth seems more rational and logical, if her game was on the line I think she would be smart enough to want to go against someone weaker.

Beth wasnt the issue in the elimination thats why I said it wouldnt have mattered. Beth wasnt winning that elimination with Syrus busted ankle. Yes even against Big Easy he wouldve lost.

I don't know if Big Easy could have got up either.  That elimination may still be going on. 

anon12423452355...#44

They didn't know the elimination beforehand. 49/50 Alton is beating Syrus in ANY elimination. Beth likely would have realized that and pushed for someone else if she was going in. She should have known about the twist beforehand even if it wouldn't have changed anything.

He probably would have picked Kendal or Kellyanne, they could have just stepped on his back and gone over while he punched through.

What a dope Syrus was for picking Alton.  As much as I would've loved Beth to stay & Aneesa to go, I'm glad Alton whopped Syrus' ***.

She would have pushed Syrus to go for Eric, even it it meant going against Katie.  Syrus with a bad ankle was probably a fair match against Big Easy trying to scale those "walls."
