The Challenge: Battle of the Exes 2 - Informed Speculation (Spoilers)

[QUOTE=mario21jorge;428135]That wouldn't be near my top 5 themes but I'm just glad for a challenge 26! If Jen and Rachel are coming back as a team that would be awesome. But who would be Darell's partner?[/QUOTE] I heard jenn declined (Not sure) and no idea about Darrell or Rachel. But if either did a come back: 1. jenn- Rachel/Pete or Adam king 2. Rachel- Darrell she hooked up with him on their season, Jenn or Abram. 3. Darrell- Rachel or Leah

[QUOTE=HeadHancho;428048]From what I heard [B]She declined because Brian wasn't going to be on anymore[/B] and didn't want to pair with Cory out of respect for Brian.[/QUOTE] What do you mean "Brian wasn't going to be on anymore"? Be on what?

So Brian/Cory/Jenny said no? Damn that sucks. Those were the people I wanted to see the most out of that Season.

[QUOTE=Debut Album;428138]So Brian/Cory/Jenny said no? Damn that sucks. Those were the people I wanted to see the most out of that Season.[/QUOTE] Can't believe Cory said no.

[QUOTE=Debut Album;428138]So Brian/Cory/Jenny said no? Damn that sucks. Those were the people I wanted to see the most out of that Season.[/QUOTE] It's like watching the Lakers without Kobe, or the Patriots without Tom Brady.

[QUOTE=auldx;428139]Can't believe Cory said no.[/QUOTE] He didn't say no. I never watched the Ex-Plosion show but supposedly of the possible exes Cory has all turned down the challenge so as a result of having no partner, he was dropped from further consideration.

[QUOTE=Debut Album;428138]So Brian/Cory/Jenny said no? Damn that sucks. Those were the people I wanted to see the most out of that Season.[/QUOTE] Cory was dropped because his possible exes turned the challenge down and as a result, he was no longer considered. Supposedly, Jenny declined which would mean that Brian has no partner either.

[QUOTE=El Scorcho;428142]Cory was dropped because his possible exes turned the challenge down and as a result, he was no longer considered. Supposedly, Jenny declined which would mean that Brian has no partner either.[/QUOTE] Brian declined himself lol He was their first option before Cory.

[QUOTE=PinkRose;428136]I heard jenn declined (Not sure) and no idea about Darrell or Rachel. But if either did a come back: 1. jenn- Rachel/Pete or Adam king 2. Rachel- Darrell she hooked up with him on their season, Jenn or Abram. 3. Darrell- Rachel or Leah[/QUOTE] Not shocked to hear about Jenn declining since she has seems to have lost interest in challenges and is said to be retired. Has anybody heard anything further on Darrel and/or Rachel at this point? The projected cast at this point has it's holes and flaws, but having Darrell & Rachel as a team would certainly make up for any of the shortcomings the rest of the cast may feature IMO. Please BMP get this one right.

[QUOTE=El Scorcho;428142]Cory was dropped because his possible exes turned the challenge down and as a result, he was no longer considered. Supposedly, Jenny declined which would mean that Brian has no partner either.[/QUOTE] Oh so he got dropped..Damn that sucks. I hate that this is an exes 2. This cast better be good.

The longer we speculate, the longer im remembering hunk hated themed challenges like rivals and exes. Bc it seems favorites are being dropped bc of the limited people they can ask.

[QUOTE=Coralfan;428158]The longer we speculate, the longer im remembering hunk hated themed challenges like rivals and exes. Bc it seems favorites are being dropped bc of the limited people they can ask.[/QUOTE] This is why these themed challenges suck.

[QUOTE=Debut Album;428159]This is why these themed challenges suck.[/QUOTE] I won't get mad until I see the official cast but ugh, hearing that someone my faves are now dropping out or being placed as alternates is making not look forward to this season already

I doubt this is the offical cast. We have to wait till august for us to know who forsure is going. Like wtf this cast is some bull..

Every season they have at least 3 standby teams/competitors who will fly out the next day. Casts are never definite because some people drop out last second.

[QUOTE=Livewitpeace;428066]CT & Nany (Rivals II) Danny & Melinda (Austin) Dustin & Jessica (Free Agents) Jay & Jenna (Ex-Plosion) Johnny & Averey (Portland) Jordan & Sarah (Rivals II) Leroy & Nia (Free Agents) Knight & Jemmye (New Orleans 2010) Robb & Marie (St. Thomas) Swift & LaToya (St. Thomas) Thomas & Hailey (Ex-Plosion) Wes & Theresa (Fresh Meat II) Zach & Jonna (Battle of the Seasons) and Trey & Laura (St. Thomas) or Cohutta/Dunbar & KellyAnne (Sydney) at this point in casting would be my ideal cast. Just my opinion though.[/QUOTE] With the options and people we have willing to do a challenge... this isn't so bad.

What about CT and Nany?

[QUOTE=VCR14;427931]Here is the cast of Challenge 26 - Battle of the Exes 2 [ATTACH]5608[/ATTACH][/QUOTE] I know this isn't official and just your educated but if Johnny and Averey aren't on this challenge, ohhhhh I won't be a happy camper.

[QUOTE=PinkRose;428084][QUOTE=mickeyflo24;428080] I just know he recently moved back to Kansas and started a new Job. The Explosion reunion was taped a couple months ago, things change and you need to realized this people have real life outside this shows. Plus by doing this challenge they would had to sign another MTV/BMP contract for a year, which is almost done for them. By what i heard some of the explosion cast really consider that before telling BMP/MTV yes.[/QUOTE] Depending on if it's a super good job he was smart to turn it down. A lot of other cast memebers aren't smart in the sense they'll leave their careers to do a Challenge, that's beyond stupid to me especially considering they don't get paid much to do them. And after reading Jenny's twitter she seems to be over Real World/Challenges as well.

I feel like Jenny/Brian/?/? Would have done it. Like Marie did it, now it has been 8 months since filming was filmed now a lot of this "models" are looking forward for their contract to be done in 2 months and not wait another year by doing a challenge. That's why I hate when they filmed like this without including people from the most crescent Real World.

They shouldn't do Exes 2 if good people are getting dropped...I have a feeling this cast is going to suck. Why push for Exes 2 if they can't get good pairs. They should just wait..

[QUOTE=PinkRose;428127]It's speculated to be battle of the exes 2 by fans and cast members that were contacted[/QUOTE] Ct better be in this one

[QUOTE=BigDaddyVova;428201]Ct better be in this one[/QUOTE] He might not, aside from Nany,everyone he could be paired with is done.

They should just wait..[/QUOTE] They are not changing theme this late into casting and 5 weeks before departure. They are probably coming out with the missions/elimination and stuff. By changing the theme they have to do new calls, setup testing,come out with new missions , eliminations, etc. In the case of Rivals 2 they change way before final calls went out, when availabilities calls were still going out. I think the cast is not bad at all, plus we are missing like one or 2 teams assuming all of the ones we have make the final cut and they are NOT alternates teams. I would do minimal changes to this cast such as replace Theresa with Nia and give Nany someone else.

[QUOTE=GDInstall;428207]Don't we miss some big names in our list as you told us?[/QUOTE] I was told that....But then again I don't know what that person consider big name. He can mean Dunbar (Laughable but you never know)/aneesa/CT/Wes/Camila.

If Jenn was called, and they planned to pair her with Rachel, but no offense - I'd probably decline the call. If Jenn ever comes back, she wants every opportunity to win.

[QUOTE=Meelz;428210]If Jenn was called, and they planned to pair her with Rachel, but no offense - I'd probably decline the call. If Jenn ever comes back, she wants every opportunity to win.[/QUOTE] Rachel is probably glad Jenn declined since she has to know her chances at going far and winning are much better with Darrell as a partner than they would be teaming with Jenn. I really hope there is something to both of their names being on the contacted list for this upcoming challenge. Production missed a great opportunity to feature them on BOTS so hopefully they can right that wrong by including them on this cast. That being said I don't trust BMP one bit to do the sensible thing here or give any of the fans who they want to see.
