The Challenge winner, Zach Nichols, delivered his latest take on the competition series, which many viewers may agree with.
He last competed on MTV’s War of the Worlds 2 season, where he stayed under the radar and worked with Team USA under the guidance of Paulie Calafiore, Cara Maria Sorbello, and others.
During that season, they ran a large alliance in the game, eliminating former show winners Johnny Bananas and Laurel Stucky.
Ultimately, Cara, Paulie, Zach, and others from Team USA reached the final, which was most of the plan. Unfortunately, they lost it to a Team UK squad featuring Ct Tamburello and Jordan Wiseley.
In his latest podcast episode, Zach discussed how alliances hurt the show and make it less entertaining.
He mentioned how he felt the show’s landscape could change with more people working together under different circumstances.

The second part of The Challenge: Battle For a New Champion reunion featured cast members claiming Jay Starrett was unfaithful to his girlfriend during a moment not captured on film.
During the special, there was a segment about various cast members’ showmances and hookups, including the ones fans saw.
Those included Horacio Gutierrez and Nurys Mateo, Kyland Young and Melissa Reeves, and James Lock with Moriah Jadea.
However, a few other potential hookups or makeout scenes didn’t make Season 39’s final footage and got attention at the reunion.
One clip featured Emanuel Neagu heading to the shower to join castmate Berna Canbeldek.
While some cast members were surprised, another big revelation arrived. Several cast members claimed Jay was kissing a castmate despite having a girlfriend back home.

The Challenge: Battle For a New Champion winner was revealed last week during the season finale, and cheating claims have ensued.
The Season 39 reunion brought all seven finalists back together, with Nurys Mateo suggesting that show winner Emanuel Neagu cheated on his way to victory.
Host Maria Menounos asked reunion participants if Emanuel is a “worthy champion,” with Devin Walker joking he’s the “champion on a season of losers.”
Emanuel fired back that he would “kick the hell out of anyone up there,” which got Nurys fired up.
“Actually you want me to tell the truth? You only won because you cheated off Colleen [Schneider]…so humble yourself,” Nurys said, referring to the giant sudoku puzzle finalists had to solve at one checkpoint.
“Maybe a little bit, but a win is a win,” Emanuel replied, but the castmates took things further on social media.

The Challenge: Battle For a New Champion has officially concluded with a first-time winner crowned for MTV’s competition series.
After outlasting six other competitors in the final, Emanuel Neagu officially took first place with $250,000 and the title of Challenge champion.
Meanwhile, there was a second-place finalist, who many fans believe was robbed of being the season’s women’s winner.
Nurys Mateo won two straight eliminations and ousted four castmates en route to her first Challenge final. There, she won another elimination to remain a finalist.
Ultimately, she crossed the finish line ahead of Colleen Schneider, Corey Lay, and Berna Canbeldek to place second and claim $60,000 in prize money.
With that, an emotional roller coaster of a season ended for the Ride or Dies rookie, who has come a long way since her previous reality TV days.

The Challenge: Battle For a New Champion crowned just one winner as its champion at the end of the final.
While Emanuel Neagu was the Season 39 winner after crossing the finish line first, many viewers and fans feel Nurys Mateo should have been named a winner.
Of the cast members who qualified for the final, she had been the only one who entered any eliminations before getting there.
Nurys won two in a row, eliminating four of her castmates before reaching the final, which seemed to indicate she earned it more than her fellow finalists.
In addition, she crossed the finish line at the final in second place, before Colleen Schneider, Berna Canbeldek, or Corey Lay, and many fans feel a woman should have also won Season 39.
Former show winner Derrick Kosinski agrees with that notion, as he recently commented on how the season ended, even comparing Nurys to a few of his Og castmates.

The Challenge officially crowned Emanuel Neagu as its newest champion during a season appropriately called Battle For a New Champion.
It was Emanuel’s second season of the MTV competition series after his debut as a rookie on Spies, Lies & Allies, where he was eliminated just before the final.
However, many of The Challenge fans were displeased with the final result since Emanuel had been part of Michele Fitzgerald and Jay Starrett’s large alliance throughout the season, allowing him to avoid eliminations.
There was also only one Season 39 winner, instead of a man and a woman crowned as champions for the first time.
If the latter had been the case, Nurys Mateo would’ve also won her first Challenge, completing a thrilling season full of backstabbing, betrayal, and elimination wins.
Following the season finale, many fans criticized the winner for how he got to the final, indicating he wasn’t the real champion.

A winner was officially crowned on The Challenge: Battle For a New Champion as the second part of the final wrapped up.
Viewers saw which of the remaining finalists would become a champion for the first time in their Challenge career. Those still competing included Emanuel Neagu, Moriah Jadea, Nurys Mateo, Corey Lay, Berna Canbeldek, and Colleen Schneider.
However, there was a matter to be handled at the start of the episode, as the Chaos elimination arrived to get rid of another competitor.
Host Tj Lavin shared that Emanuel was the clear winner of the Chaos phase, which meant he got to choose someone to send into elimination.
He said he would choose Nurys since he hadn’t worked with her during the season.
With that, Tj brought everyone to The Draw, where Nurys had to choose one of six poles in the sand. Four poles had castmates’ names, and two were Chaos poles,...

Qualifying competitors included fan-favorite Nurys Mateo, Jay Starrett, Colleen Schneider, Corey Lay, Emanuel Neagu, Moriah Jadea, and Berna Canbeldek.

Jay Starrett reached his first final in Season 39 of The Challenge thanks to a well-orchestrated alliance run chiefly by him and his ride-or-die Michele Fitzgerald.
However, his appearance in that first-ever final was short-lived, as he met his fate after the first phase of the event.
The Control phase featured the seven finalists working as a team to complete a task. Unfortunately, it wasn’t completed in time, and they lost another $16,000 of their final prize money.
Host Tj Lavin also revealed the first elimination of the final, with the majority of finalists voting Corey Lay into it due to his mistake in the Control task.
Corey then called out Jay for the elimination, indicating he saw him as a threat and someone who made sneaky, shady, or snaky moves to get there.
He then defeated the former Survivor competitor in an event involving racing to dig up small bags...

It’s already no secret that Nurys had a falling out with former friend Olivia Kaiser, which came to light in Episode 16. It’s unclear if they’re working toward resolving that friendship.
More recently, Nurys said her “friendship is over” with Jay Starrett after being friends for five years.

Michele Fitzgerald executed an impressive season of The Challenge as she navigated the complexities of a large alliance in Battle For a New Champion.

Following a dramatic episode of The Challenge: Battle For a New Champion, Olivia Kaiser told her side of the story involving Horacio Gutierrez, Nurys Mateo, and the surprising decision she made.
According to the former Love Island contestant, she received much backlash and hate after The Challenge episode aired, so she felt she deserved an opportunity to talk about what happened.
The Ride or Dies finalist said plenty was not shown during the recent MTV season, including footage of her stronger friendships in The Challenge house.
Speaking of friendships, Olivia also revealed a bombshell that she and Horacio Gutierrez were not friends before they partnered on Ride or Dies. Instead, they were introduced before going on the competition show.
However, she indicated that they bonded during the season. Still, she explained that she had many conflicts during Season 39 because Horacio hadn’t told her he’d be returning for the season.
