‘The Challenge 38’ reported pairs
For The Challenge 38, the players will reportedly team up as pairs for a “ride or die” theme, according to popular spoiler PinkRose. Similar to Battle of the Bloodlines, several family members and loved ones who aren’t reality stars are competing on these series alongside fan favorites. The account has reported the following as pairs:
Amber/Chauncey
Analyse/Tommy
Aneesa/James
Colleen/Kim
Emmy/Nam
Kailah/Sam
Kaycee/Kenny
Laurel/Jack
Michele/Jay
Moriah/Fessy
Nany/Bananas
Nurys/Nelson
Olivia/Horacio
Ravyn/Johnny M
Tamara/Turbo
Tori/Devin
At some point, after filming began, Johnny “Bananas” Devenanzio (20 seasons, 2 finals, 7 wins) and Nany González (11 seasons, 3 finals) joined the cast. It’s unclear if they were replacements or joined the game late as a result of a twist.
Jordan Wiseley reportedly joined ‘The Challenge 38’ cast; he will compete against ex Tori Deal
Veteran Aneesa initially came into the game alongside her best friend, James. However, it’s reported that he was sent home after at least one day of filming.
It isn’t clear why he had to exit the game prematurely, but Jordan Wiseley (6 seasons, 1 final, 3 wins) is said to have returned to replace James as Aneesa’s teammate. Jordan and Tori, who’s reportedly competing alongside Devin, met in 2017 while filming The Challenge: Dirty 30.
The couple began a relationship and moved in with each other before returning for two more seasons. During their most recent appearance together during Total Madness (2020), he proposed to her after winning an elimination.
However, in December 2020, they revealed their separation. She has since admitted she would compete on an Exes season alongside him. Season 3 will mark the first time the former couple appears on the show since their 2020 split.
