If TJ ever decides to retire from hosting The Challenge, and CT retires from competing, it’s only right to let CT host.

[@jonalexander2918]

CT is a truly genuine person and that’s not something you really see in people much anymore. He’s comfortable in his own skin and it’s hard not to like a guy like that. The guy’s a class act.

[@jamesireland9188]

Plenty of people are like him especially where he grew up

[@reddy272]

CT is so dang smart. At the end, he mentions that none of the newbies coming up seem to be having much fun. I think that's a major reason why the challenges for the past 5ish years have been so bland and boring. Everyone is just concerned about social media and becoming influencers, and taking the game so seriously. Shows why he's the best.

The smile and sparkle in CT's eyes whenever he talks about Diem breaks my heart. It has been such a joy watching CT's journey and how far he has come throughout the years. Diem is definitely his guardian angel, giving him strength which is why he kept winning Championships even with his dad bod.

[@poeticvoldemort]

Absolutely love this but sadly proves this show can't survive without the CT, Johnny, Cara generation The new generation of Jay, Fessy, josh just don't have what it takes to carry the show without them

[@NamPham-jk5zc]

Seems crazy they excluded Fessy and Josh from 39

[@v.0624]

With the CT, Johnny, and Cara generation, the show didn't go casting for influncers type and let earlier challengers personality shine through instead. Also, the show didn't provide a gym for the challengers within the house in the beginning seasons and neither on the season Cara debuted on the show. The show needs to go back to the basics of hiring non influencers type and get rid of the home gym at The Challenge house if they want to continue the show's longevity even when CT, Cara, Johnny, etc. retire. Because like CT stated within the video, the new people are focused on the money and not creating memories. The show needs to bring back the genuine fun that challengers had by having less of making it a sports show and influencer show and more of show of people having fun in the process of trying to win some money like in the early challenge days of when it was called Real World/Road Rules Challenge.

[@capriceclassic3667]

@m.86719 its crazy too because every comment i see always says they need to make it more competitive and sportsy. I’ve always felt it needed to be more “home parties” with the props nd jokes they bring. Memories of the good ol days for sure

[@v.0624]

@@capriceclassic3667 To make it more sportsy a better fit would be if the network brought back Road Rules. That's where it is more sportsy and competitive with their missions. Making The Challenge more sportsy would have the contestants sustain more injuries. I have watched the show since the beginning and stopped at Cutthroat. Took a long break before watching The Challenge again due to life. I was shocked how serious and lifeless the show was compared to when I used to watch it when I watched the season of SLA. Everyone wearing sponsorship clothes just makes it lifeless among the contestants taking it too seriously. I could see why CT said the quote he said on the show. As a viewer of past seasons to watching the SLA season when it aired was like night and day. The old season OGs were competitve but knew how to let loose and have fun and it wasn't all game talk being discussed all the time on the show. I don't know if it's the editing, but the contestants really need to let loose and be more laid back and not uptight to constantly be thinking about the game and the gameplay of the game all the damn time.

[@jflatty5389]

confirmation yet again that adam threw it- good to hear it straight out of ct's mouth- even tho any challenge fan knew

[@budman6137]

Inside info, the house promised to give Adam money if he threw that elimination on Rivals. What's funny is none of them ever paid him. It's one of the reasons he hasn't been back. The producers usually pretend they don't know when cast mates are using prize money to negotiate for people losing on purpose. But that one hurt ratings and the final wasn't as good. Plus the producers really didn't like Bananas at the time and didn't want him in the final. So they were pissed when that happened. To go even deeper, the house promised Adam money if he got into a fight with CT. That was the season he got his head smashed and eaten by CT lol. But seriously, the dudes in the house all got together with Adam and promised him money if he got into a fight with CT. It's kinda shown in the episode. When CT walked into that room they were all hyping Adam up to do it. So he did and as u know, they both got kicked off. They actually paid him that time. That's why he believed they would again during Rivals. So a few of those same people were the ones who convinced him to throw that elimination on Rivals. Adam still hated CT. And they told him "do u really wana win and help CT get money?". They then promised him basically 2nd place money if he threw the elimination.

[@AyeletBJ94]

The amount of growth CT has had is so great to see. He got rid of that chip on his shoulder and has let us all see his big heart. I’ve watched every real world, every road rules & every challenge. It’s definitely my guilty pleasure. 😅 seeing these “kids” grown up has been heartwarming. Getting their backstories will be the icing on the cake. Every time I see a post about an old challenger having a new baby or getting married, I’m always happy for them. CT is right, focus on the memories, the journey & not the money. The new season has been such a disappointment. Horacio, Nurys & Kyland were the only saving grace. 🧡

Wow! That was the best video I have seen on CT and the Challenge. Great in depth coverage. CT shows why he is the GOAT. So many challenges that he could have won.

his love for Diem is so admirable, really is true love ! I remember watching all the seasons with them and how it hit hard when she passed 😢

CT, I have been your biggest fan since you first appeared on Real World. You’re an awesome person - don’t ever change!😊

Ct is the best. He is authentic. and makes me proud to be from the boston.

CT is heir to The Challenge Throne! Truly the definition of growth 🔥

Over the years CT grew on me. I hated him for what he did to Adam on The Duel 2 but learning what was going on he is a genuine dude. This documentary shows how humble he is.

I think the Davis one was as bad, even if he only hit him once. Adam was provoking CT so they both caused the fight, but Davis didn't do anything.

This is the first time I’ve heard him share so openly about Diem. It was beautiful. ❤

Wes & CT, Duel 2, most overpowered team in a pair season
