If this was a ranking of the biggest psychos in the history of The Challenge, Abram would be the clear cut number one. Alas, we’re ranking the best players here, and while Abe was always elite he was never quite transcendent.

The vast majority of his seasons have come in team seasons — all but The Island, Exes and Bloodlines (which technically Abe was only in during the team portion) — which makes him a bit harder to judge as an individual competitor.

Still, he was always seen as one of the best competitors and leaders on his teams, in particular on The Infernos (in which he is the only male to make the finals on all three seasons in a trilogy other than Bananas in Rivals seasons). His finest campaign came on Inferno III, where he was neck-and-neck with Alton for best competitor of the season and helped the Bad Asses take home the championship.

On Cutthroat he led the grey team to five out of nine mission victories before having to get pulled from the final, and he helped the red team go undefeated on Bloodlines, only getting eliminated because of his brother (who allegedly threw his elimination for Jamie/Cara).

The marks against Abe are that he was often disinterested in the political game, especially late in his career. He made an extremely dubious move on Cutthroat to send Laurel in over Cara Maria, which could have torpedoed the grey team’s chances if Laurel hadn’t narrowly beat Camila.

On Exes he and Cara Maria were the veteran team that was lowest on the totem pole (other than Rachel/Aneesa), and on Bloodlines he (understandably) blew up what should have been a strong alliance with Tom.

However, he was almost always liked, case in point being when he asked to get voted off on The Island and was still almost kept over Bananas.

Abe has defeated both Brad and Timmy in heavyweight eliminations (although his victory over Timmy was a fluke), and his losses to The Miz and Ty in physical eliminations are completely understandable.

But he has a couple of dud seasons like The Gauntlet, Battle of the Sexes II and Exes. We’ve never seen what he could really do in an individual season, and we’ve never seen how he handles politics in an individual or partner season (besides Exes).

So despite being a consistently strong competitor for a long period of time, Abram lands at number 15.
