Yesterday I did a rundown of all the players on the \u201cChampions\u201d squad from \u201cRW\/RR Challenge: The Ruins.\u201d Today is the second part featuring the \u201cChallengers\u201d team.

\u201cChallengers\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Adam (RW: Paris)<\/strong>: After getting kicked off of \u201cThe Duel 2\u201d for fighting, Adam is back. With the teams set up the way they are, I think Adam will fare much better with most of his usual competition on the other team.
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Brad (RW: San Diego)<\/strong>: Brad almost beat Evan on \u201cThe Duel 2\u201d for the grand prize. This time around he is without his fianc\u00e9e(?) Tori, but he also benefits from having his biggest competition on the other team, as well. With no distractions, unlike last season, I think Brad will be in a good position to hold court as the strongest male on the \u201cChallengers\u201d team.
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Brianna (RW: Hollywood)<\/strong>: Brianna was a fire-cracker on her season of the RW and with this being her first challenge, she will definitely have a target on her back. Her mouth won\u2019t be of any help either.
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Casey (RW\/RR Challenge: Fresh Meat)*<\/strong>: I have no clue what Casey will do during her time on \u201cThe Ruins.\u201d She\u2019s not a complete novice, but I have no read on what kind of competitor she will be.
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Chet: (RW: Brooklyn)*<\/strong>: He\u2019s also a ? in my book. He doesn\u2019t look like he will be real competitive, so I\u2019m going to go out of my way to say he lasts two, maybe three episodes.
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Cohutta (RW: Sydney)*<\/strong>: Wow, what was I doing while these three seasons were on MTV. I know a little bit more about Cohutta, than the other two, but not a lot. He\u2019s has a southern accent and he seems likable enough.
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Danny (RW: San Diego)<\/strong>: Finally back to familiar territory. I know Danny very well and me no likey. Danny is a tool and he\u2019s easy to hate. This time around he\u2019s facing the challenge by himself, unlike the last time where he was competing with his fianc\u00e9e, Melinda on \u201cFresh Meat,\u201d which may be to his advantage.
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Diem (RW\/RR Challenge: Fresh Meat)<\/strong>: Diem, a cancer survivor, took me for a loop on \u201cThe Duel 2.\u201d At first, I thought she was just a whiner, but as the season progressed she showed some grittiness. I have high expectations for Diem, this season.
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 Dunbar (RW: Sydney)<\/strong>: Dunbar had a crazy ride on \u201cThe Duel 2.\u201d I believe Dunbar is a competent player and should be able to fight with Brad for the top spot of the \u201cChallengers\u201d squad.
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0KellyAnne (RW: Sydney)*<\/strong>: Two words: Hot-ness! I missed out on RW: Sydney, which leaves me with little to no knowledge of the cast members. From her pictures, KellyAnne looks athletic enough to have a good chance at being competitive on the show.
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Kimberly (RW: Hollywood)<\/strong>: Kimberly did moderately well on \u201cThe Duel 2.\u201d She got into some drama over her hook-up with Dunbar, which is sure to bring back headaches for both parties involved.
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Nick (RW: Hollywood)<\/strong>: Nick was \u201cinjured\u201d on \u201cThe Duel 2\u201d and had an early exit. Nick seems to be able to compete in the challenges, but his easygoing demeanor may lead to another early exit this season.
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Sarah (RW: Brooklyn)*<\/strong>: Sarah has tattoos. Tattoos rock. I like Sarah.
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 Shauvon (RW: Sydney)<\/strong>: Shauvon was on \u201cThe Duel 2\u201d and had a lot drama thrown her way after hooking-up with Diem\u2019s ex-fiancee \u2013 these people use the word fianc\u00e9e very loosely \u2013 C.T. She is a buxom woman and will bring the Must-See T.V. factor to \u201cThe Ruins.\u201d<\/p>\n
