It’s that time of year again! MTV just announced The Challenge Season 40, and they’re pulling out all of the stops for the landmark season. Of course, there are the usual suspects like like Johnny Bananas and CT Tamburello. Obviously, they never turn down the call. But, there are also contestants from the entire 39-season run of the show.
The contestants will be divided into different “eras.” That word isn’t just for Taylor Swift. This is a Battle of the Eras! The teams will compete for a grand prize of $1 million. So, if you haven’t watched The Challenge in a while, we think this might be the one to watch. There’s literally a little bit of everything.
Era 1 (Seasons 1 – 10)
This is the old-school team from the early days of the show, and (almost) all of them have wins under their belt. They have CT, who is fresh off of his win on The Traitors. Plus, there are all of the classic faces from this show, like Mark Long and Aneesa Ferreira. If you’re solidly in your 30s, you’re probably rooting for this team.
- Tina Barta
- Katie Cooley
- Aneesa Ferreira
- Brad Fiorenza
- Derrick Kosinski
- Mark Long
- Rachel Robinson
- Chris “CT” Tamburello
- Darrell Taylor
- Jodi Weatherton
Era 2 (Seasons 11 – 20)
Bananas is representing Era 2 of The Challenge, back when the show was still called Real World/Road Rules Challenge. He’ll be joined by other champs like Cara Maria Sorbello and Laurel Stucky. You heard it here first, this team is going to be a force to be reckoned with.
- Derek Chavez
- Nehemiah Clark
- Johnny Bananas
- KellyAnne Judd
- Ryan Kehoe
- Aviv Melmed
- Brandon Nelson
- Emily Schromm
- Cara Maria Sorbello
- Laurel Stucky
Era 3 (Seasons 21 – 30)
Compared to the rest of the teams, Era 3 doesn’t have quite as many champs, but the competitors they have are heavy hitters. You have folks like Leroy Garrett, who has competed a whopping 13 times, and Jonna Mannion, who recently won back-to-back seasons of The Challenge: All Stars. They might put up a fight.
- Tori Deal
- Amanda Garcia
- Leroy Garrett
- Jonna Mannion
- Nia Moore
- Tony Raines
- Averey Tressler
- Devin Walker
- Cory Wharton
- Jordan Wiseley
Era 4 (Seasons 31 – 39)
Last, and possibly least is Era 4 of The Challenge. This group has all of the modern-era Challengers, with their minimal experience and least amount of wins. The only champs on this team are Kaycee Clark and Jenny West, but there also folks from non-MTV shows in this group. Compared to the rest of the teams, this one seems like Fresh Meat, but maybe they’ll prove us wrong.
- Paulie Calafiore
- Theo Campbell
- Kaycee Clark
- Michele Fitzgerald
- Horacio Gutiérrez Jr
- Olivia Kaiser
- Josh Martinez
- Nurys Mateo
- Jenny West
- Kyland Young
The Challenge 40: Battle of the Eras premieres Wednesday, August 14 at 8/7c on MTV.
