Like I have done in the past, we are going to take a thorough look at the cast who will be appearing on Final Reckoning. This will outline Challenge end elimination successes on prior seasons and in eliminations.

Here are a few guidelines to understanding this list:

Eliminations are counted as appearances in an elimination arena (The Jungle, The Gauntlet, The Dome, The Presidio, etc.). Losing is a purge is not an elimination loss. Elimination wins and losses from Battle of the Bloodlines only count if the competitor was actually competing in The Pit. If the elimination did not occur due to “chance” (like Cara Maria’s Jungle against Jasmine and Theresa or Tony and Camila’s Jungle), it will not count. Winning or losing in Battle of the Ex-iled and Redemption will not count as a formal win or loss, but will be noted. Champs vs. Pros and Champs vs. Stars will be noted separately, but not counted as a formal appearance Bolded appearances in the finals indicate a win

Appearances in the Finals: 1. Vendettas (+ Champs vs. Stars 2)

Why they’re paired: Bananas has been a mentor for Tony since Rivals 3, likely bonding over the fact that they’ve both dealt with crazy Camila. On Dirty Thirty Bananas helped Tony navigate the game and avoid making bigger mistakes. They worked well together on Vendettas until Tony voted Bananas into elimination, sending him home and shattering trust.

Originally, Bananas is paired with Devin. Shortly after arriving, Devin hears his father suddenly passed away and returns home to attend services. This is why he is brought back as a Mercenary. Bananas and Devin have never gotten along, beginning with Rivals 3 where Devin teamed to Wes to target Bananas. On Vendettas, Devin schemed to face Bananas in elimination by unleashing “mental warfare” and spreading a rumor about Bananas and Kayleigh hooking up. Due to this, Tony was convinced to send Bananas into elimination. He did, and Devin eliminated Bananas.

There was also a prank on Dirty Thirty (referenced in the above pic) that went wrong, but that was just an overreaction on Tony’s part. They recovered quickly.
