i think gamer said they didn’t have any water challenges because it’s dried up and the water shortage.

Omg....... lmaooooo I was joking, sorry :/ 

Lmaoo oh okay. 

I’m just gonna say that I am having a hard time seeing past a Hunter and Ashley win. I kinda ant Paulie and Natalie to win just because it’d be the most shocking, but I’m also having a hard time seeing Cara and Marie winning. I just don’t think Marie is going to perform well in the final and CM won’t be enough to pick up the slack. I’m gonna guess wildly:

4th. CM and Marie

3rd. Joss and Sylvia

2nd. Paulie and Natalie

1st. Ashley and Hunter

I can see this, I'm a little torn between Joss/Sylvia and Natalie/Paulie. I think that Natalie/Paulie are a little better rounded/balanced/even for a final whereas I feel like Joss would have to drag Sylvia a bit. I hope Joss/Sylvia get 2nd but I think you might be right that Paulie/Natalie have an advantage. I just hope Cara Maria/Marie get some money despite being in 4th.

TBH, the least likely is Cara/Marie (despite Cara having the most final experience, you're only as strong as your weakest link...which is Marie?)

But its really up in the air after that. If I had to choose someone to win, it would be Ashley/Hunter but you never know what could happen. Someone could twist their ankle or fall out of a plane or get bitten by a spider.

Cara and Bananas are both used to terrible conditions by now so i dont think its them. Tony is a possibility since he's gone from the vendettas final to the CvS final to another 2 months of this season all back to back. And the steroids are probably not helping any.

plus Cara and John weren’t on CvS so they did get a little break. But Cara has made it to the end each time. I’m ok with messy Cara tho 

A Joss/Sylvia win would be incredible. I hope they can pull it off

Happy 10,000 posts. A season we once thought was going to be horrible turned out to play out pretty well Smile

So do we think this will be the first time Cara doesn't get 1st or 2nd place in a Final?

I figured this given the beautiful water right next to them, I wouldn't be surprised if there were more since water challenges can be more of an equalizer 

I just hope they stay in Africa for the final tbh

This is my guess to as to how it'll go down. Marie will slow Cara down because she really doesn't seem to care and Cara will be losing her shit lol Sylvia will slow Joss down but will push through as much as she can. Paulie and Natalie seem like they'd be decent in a final. Ashley/Hunter are well rounded. 

Anything can happen though. Hoping for 1. Sylvia/Joss 2. Ashley/Hunter 3. Natalie/Paulie 4. Cara/Marie. 

My prediction for final placements:

1. Natalie & Paulie

2. Ashley & Hunter

3. Joss & Sylvia

4. Cara & Marie

That's pretty much how I see this final. 

Could see the casuals rooting for Joss/Sylvia hard in the final, we’ve heard they won a couple of eliminations and on top of Joss slowly but inevitably becoming a casual fave this should be the pair they root for. 

Might be one of the few times I actually get excited with the casual fan base. I still want to see them irate if Ashley wins twice tho 

The casuals are still mad about Sylvia throwing tony in on invasion.

If Paulie wins in his first season >>>>>>> a legend

The casuals are still mad about Sylvia throwing tony in on invasion.

***** and for chokeholding madison 

I don’t think sylvia will slow joss down, if anything I think she’s really driven and wants this win and that it will give her the motivation she needs to crush it. I think first place will be a close call between Ashley/hunter joss/Sylvia. Assuming as said before no one twists an ankle etc

yeah but they’ll get over it for Joss, they complemented her on her elimination round with Melissa. They like her more than Marie, Ashley or the Big Brothers. Hunter is still in the Young Bucks alliances and doesn’t like their faves so they are meh on him. 

SOSS is looking to be the late game casual fave 

So do we think this will be the first time Cara doesn't get 1st or 2nd place in a Final?

Shhhhh don’t wish that upon the Queen. But in all honesty, i really don’t know how this final placement will be with so many newbies in the final

Not a huge knock on Sylivia as Joss would destroy the final by himself but she will slow him down. I do think she is driven and will push herself as far as her body will let her but I just think the other teams will perform better. She will give her all though. 

Question: Are Cara/Marie staying in 4th in these predictions based solely on being the only F/F team? Because just last season, Cara herself beat everyone. I'm thinking this final will be another like Vendettas.

I think they are just saying it because Marie is her partner

i love marie but i'm guessing marie is probably why people are placing them in 4th and you're only as good as your teammate. i'm rooting for them tho, i'd love to see marie do well in a final bc she's the obvious underdog in the final 4 teams. i'm sure it'll be similar to the last one and be a lot of cardio and equalizers.

Yeah I think people are underestimating Sylvia. She came into Challenges in not the best shape, but she had a ton of heart (just like Ashley), which helped her win those eliminations. She's lost a lot of weight since and has been training. I think with the weight loss, training, heart to win, and Joss pushing her... it might just happen.

Do you actually think Cara would've won without the reset?

Not dismissing her win because that's just how it was set up, but if it's a straight-through final and not in sections, a F/F team won't win.

There’ll likely be equalizers and resets again.Not the favorites but I don’t think they’d make a course unattainable for f/f teams.

Landon got Carly a win..... ☕️

People need to quit sleeping on Marie, she’s always performed well at the individual challenges.... plus this is the first season she’s ever trained for before coming on.

I’m just dead that the majority of the season people were trying to get joss and syl out, and now they in the finals
