Behind the Screen: The challenge: Total Madness - Nelson Thomas

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.

Nelson eyes have always bother me despite always thinking that he is good looking. He is the black version of Derrick a beast on physical eliminations horrible at puzzles...

More dumber than Cory and hella messy lol. But is an attractive beast competitor...

Other Shows: Are You The One? 3, Ex on the Beach US 3 and Dr. Phil

Apperance: 6th

Eliminations: 11 (8 wins, 2 losses , 1 draw)

Money won: $36,250

Bio: Veteran powerhouse Nelson returns to the game hungry as ever for his first-ever Finals win after multiple close calls and disappointing exits. As an elimination beast, Nelson is perfectly suited for the game's latest twist and is utterly fearless when it comes to stepping down onto the elimination floor. Of course, he may find himself there quite often if he doesn't learn to keep his notorious ability to stick his foot in his mouth in check, which has been his downfall on more than one occasion. Hopefully, his best friend Cory can help keep Nelson under control. If he can rein in his hotheadedness, Nelson has a great shot at claiming his long-awaited "Challenge" crown.

I think it took a hell of a lot more than luck to place 2nd that season.

he would've been out waaaaay before the final if the underdogs would've actually faced off against the champs like they should've been from the start

If Nelson could swim and did some brain puzzles, he'd be the next black challenge winner. Like, no debate.

Theo's pretty much a shoe in for that title once he's healed up.

Yet he's done a season with all the champs on that season without the twist and still made it far...

PinkRose#22

Lowkey excited to see him be a hot head this season 

melm3#23

Some of the things he says are hilarious like saying he wanted to be like Hunter when he grows up. Lol

I couldnt take him serious after his confessional about stop playing as a good guy and being a bad guy this season....Maybe I have been watching the wrong show, but necessarily he has never been portrayed as a good guy.

Just a hotness that says dumb stuff.

Dreamdoll#28

Why did he say he never been to a final lol?

PinkRose#29

Why did he say he never been to a final lol?

Did he actually say that?

Dreamdoll#30

Why did he say he never been to a final lol?

Did he actually say that?

Yes. In his confessional he was saying how he's not playing the good guy (when we knows he's not) this season since he realized its never gotten him first place or to a final lol

PinkRose#31

"Ordacity" lol 

But yeah he is dumb for blowing something out of proportion . When she was just helping him and Cory by feeding them info.
