This past Sunday, I posted my Top 10 Worst Final performances list. So I figure that it’s only right that I post my Top 10 Best Final performances list. I will say, generally I try to mix my top 10 lists with half men and half women, but this list trended more towards rewarding men.

Honorable Mentions:

Johnny Bananas & Sarah Rice (Rivals 3): It is difficult to quantify their win as they were so much better than the rest of the teams, and the game itself was very pre-produced to get the money steal twist.

Ninja Natalie (War of the Worlds 1): She was the top female finisher of a 50 mile final.

Paula Meronek & Emily Schromm (Rivals 2): A fantastic comeback performance anchored by Paula’s eating ability.

Laurel Stucky (Free Agents): An excellent performance. Just misses out for no significant reason. The win itself is elite, but the final run is missing some oomph.

Johnny Bananas (Free Agents): Devyn setting back Johnny Reilly an overwhelming amount as a partner in the hardest portion, is what keeps Bananas off the top 10 for his Free Agents run.

Cara Maria Sorbello (Vendettas): Being the first solo winner is cool, but the final portion coming down to a puzzle was underwhelming.

Camila Nakagawa (Dirty 30): It is tough to break down Camila’s performance in the final, as MTV edited their final the best to keep it a mystery, of which three girls won the D30 final. They also did not give her any confessionals as the episodes got re-edited after her racist tirade and her assault of a crew member on Champs vs. Stars. She killed the final, but based on what we saw, it’s hard to figure out how much so.

SUPER HONORABLE MENTION:

Johnny Bananas & Camila Nakagawa (Exes 1): I switched this one and number 10 around so many times. They were a good team all season who made it to the final, held second place for a majority of it, and in the final stretch, passed up CT & Diem for a win that even upset Bunim & Murray.
