Behind the Screen: The Challenge: Double Agents- Weston Bergmann

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.

I understand why we're seeing threads for Wes, John, Cara and even Rogan but they're not the solution. The plan following FR worked briefly but then blew up...

I think they just got the wrong vets.

Who should have the vets been?  That's where I get torn.  CT, Kam & Tori were obvious choices but beyond that...Day?  Slyvia?  Joss?  Shane?  Brad?  Brit?

He announced today on his IG Story that he won't be on any challenges ( spin-offs included ) for a while

Yesssssssssss another win for society

Yesssssssssss another win for society 

exactly I definitely laughed at the news 

deeper#37

He's said that before. And why has he been training so hard/roiding again 

kvm1977#38

Yeah nothing Wes says has meaning. This actually makes me think he dies show up. He'd been lying about it since 2008. 

Flopnanas#39

I mean he has a legit business unlike many of these flops.

realitybrotherr#40

Didn't he say something like that after Rivals 3?

He said something like that after The Duel...don't pay him ANY mind...

Yeah but doing The Challenge isn't just about money

flyguy#43

Wes used to take breaks all the time, im glad he needs it

And then took 4 seasons off, which would definetly be considered a solid break these days. My guess is we see him on 40

dylan76#45

I really hope we haven't seen the last of him & that he's just trolling.

Aspiring#46

I mean, at least he takes breaks.

We have had Kyle since his debut. We've had Ashley since Final Reckoning and even then, Vendettas was her only break. Same goes for CT. I mean we have somehow reached a point where Josh has joined the 5-timers club.

agreed.  Had they done a better job rotatating the cast and searchign within their own pool of people they had been bringing on we wouldn't be where we are with this current season's casting. 

CosmicDiva#48

Tbh I'm sick of him so whatever 

Flopnanas#49

How can any of yall be sick of this legend when hes taken long *** breaks multiple times.... as well as gone home early in his most recent seasons. I would take wes anyday over the josh's, kyle's cory's, bananas, ct's anyday.

His schooling Josh that they weren't a thing because Wes wouldn't vote out someone who he could beat was awesome.

His schtick is not interesting in the least. He barley adds anything to the show anymore. Doest really  matter if he takes breaks imo.

^^^^^

SeauxMtv#53

New Wes hasn't added shit to this show since his returning season WOTW

Stay gone

I'm surprised at all the Wes hate. He's so awesome. He's what these wannabes aspire to be and fail at.

Anyway, I hope he's not for real. He's the one legitimate vet I never get tired of watching. I do get tired of seeing him sent home early. Seasons when he makes it to the end: show gold.

There we go. Exactly all of this. He handled that moment like a straight up g btw. lmao. That's what separates the legends of the game from the pretenders. He is in the group for the former for a reason. And even looking at that group, I'm sorry, but I find him to be infinitely more watchable and interesting tv than Bananas and CT.

I loved Wes since his debut but when the whole thing with Day happened he left a sour taste in my mouth and I never looked back. I tolerate him now but he has his Devin tendancies of doing too much. 

flyguy#59

Wes became everything that he used to stand against lmao thats why I dont really care for him nomore. Not that hes doing anything "wrong" imo but he serves no purpose if hes gonna be Barney & Friends

Debut Album#60

Wes to me has the same problem most(if not all) the vets do: They're not interesting, and they don't do anything to really make the show worth watching. Not to mention everything he's done now is so repetitive. The Mastermind shtick is played out and we've seen it too many times. Give us something new. Give us something to look forward to, People say the challenge is about seeing people we "Know" grow and change through the years well....Well shit. I haven't seen any change in awhile.

It's why I'm completly fine with them casting all around the world...well within reason and as long as they're useful.

You know that makes a lot of sense because I feel like a lot of these vets have just been giving us the same material and after so long, it starts to feel stale.

I think a lot of it comes from them not rotating the vets enough times. We get them so many seasons in a row (even with the one-two season breaks) and they just give us the same thing and it gets watered down more and more with each passing season.
