MTV’s The Challenge Season 37 is officially underway, and the backstabbing dramatics have already begun.

So, who are the teams heading into week two? Here’s who they are, plus, The Challenge Season 37 spoilers regarding who gets disqualified from the game and shakes up the pairings even more.
[Spoiler alert: MTV’s The Challenge Season 37 spoilers ahead for who’s sent home episode 1 and who’s disqualified later.]
MTV’s ‘The Challenge’ Season 37 saw U.S. players and international players pair up in week 1
The first episode of MTV’s The Challenge Season 37 started off with a bang. Players formed teams of two and would have to work together with their partners through the game to win daily challenges and avoid eliminations. So, how were the pairs initially determined? Every U.S. player was chained to a cinderblock tower while the international players raced to the tower to free them. Whoever the international player chose would be their partner at the beginning of the game.
Emanuel Neagu got to the cinderblock tower first and chose Kaycee Clark — a wise choice considering Kaycee’s track record for eliminations and daily wins. Kelz Dyke arrives next and goes for Tori Deal, and the players continue from there. Eventually, all of the U.S. operatives and international players successfully pair up, and some pairs are happier than others.
When it comes to the elimination, Michaela Bradshaw and Renan Hellemans are sent in against Michele Fitzgerald and Corey Lay. A new twist allowed “The Agency” — the daily challenge winners — to pick one man and one woman separate from their teams to compete against the nominated pairing. Michele and Corey won, sending Michaela and Renan home.
Who’s paired up in week 2?

MTV’s ‘The Challenge’ Season 37 spoilers suggest a number of players leave or are disqualified
Fans haven’t found out why Nam left the competition just yet, but MTV’s The Challenge Season 37 spoilers seem to suggest it could have something to do with coronavirus (COVID-19) protocol. Spoilers suggest Nam had to leave the competition due to a scheduling conflict that made season 37 run longer because of the coronavirus scare.
Nam’s not the only one to leave the competition under unfortunate circumstances. Additional rumors from PinkRose on Vevmo and shared to the Challenge Fandom page suggest Lauren, Tommy, Aneesa, Fessy, and Ashley all get disqualified for various reasons.
We’ll have to wait and see what goes down this season on MTV’s The Challenge: Spies, Lies, and Allies.
