Potential spoiler alert! Warning, this article contains possible spoilers of The Challenge: All Stars season 3!
With The Challenge: All Stars season 2 almost coming to a close, fans are already anxiously awaiting news regarding season 3. The Challenge: All Stars is a spinoff of MTV’s hit competition show The Challenge, which was the brainchild of Mark Long. It all started when Mark asked fans if they would like a reboot of the competition featuring “old-school” fan-favorites and got a resounding “yes.” He pitched it to The Challenge producers, and soon afterward, Paramount+ picked up the series.
The inaugural season of All Stars was a huge hit and fans loved seeing old faces that they hadn’t seen in a long time. The veterans had hung up their Challenge hats for some time and focused on their home life. Almost all of them had children and many were married or in a relationship. Fans were impressed with The Real World star Jonna Mannion for completing the final despite having had a baby several months prior to the show. Former Road Rules star Yes Duffy took home the win, taking home the cash prize of $500,000.
The Challenge: All Stars season 3 is reported to have been filmed a month before season 2 aired in November 2021. According to potential spoilers shared by Stop Being Polite, the show takes place in Panama and viewers will see a lot of faces from past seasons. The male lineup allegedly includes Brad Fiorenza, Darrell Taylor, Derrick Kosinski, Jordan Wiseley, MJ Garrett, Nehemiah Clark, Syryus Yarbrough, Tyler Duckworth, Wes Bergmann, Laterrian Wallace, Mark, as well as season 1 winner Yes. Meanwhile, the alleged female competitors are Cynthia Roberts, Jemmye Carroll, Jonna Mannion, Kailah Casillas, Kellyanne Judd, Kendal Sheppard, Melinda Stolp, Nia Moore, Roni Martin, Sylvia Elsrode, Tina Barta, Veronica Portillo, and Beth Stolarczyk.
With so much history between the cast members, there is sure to be a lot of drama not only inside of the arena but also outside of it. Most fans will surely still remember the time when Tina punched Beth in the face over 15 years ago while they competed together on The Duel. Tina knew that it would result in her getting sent home, but she claimed that it was “worth it” nonetheless. Ever since then, the two haven’t competed together. Tina, who quit All Stars 2, was supposed to compete on All Stars season 1 but had to back out due to her contracting COVID-19. Beth called it “karma” on a podcast, to which Tina retaliated by calling Beth a “narcissist.” It will be interesting to see how they deal with their long-standing feud when they finally come face-to-face.
An official release date will most likely come after The Challenge: All Stars season 2 reunion airs. Season 1 aired in April 2021, whereas season 2 started in November 2021. It’s likely that season 3 will drop sometime in early Spring 2022. MTV’s original The Challenge is rumored to start filming in March, and production is reportedly still working on the cast. Fans might not see veterans Tula “Big T” Fazakerley or CT Tamburello in the next season. Big T has announced her retirement from the competition, while CT is focusing on family and his acting endeavors.
