The Challenge: Final Reckoning's Cara Maria Sorbello Loves Jenna and Zach as Much as You Do
After winning MTV’s The Challenge: Vendettas earlier this year, Cara Maria Sorbello is back in action for her 12th season, Final Reckoning. As she vies for the $1 million prize alongside rival and partner Marie Roda, she’s blogging about it exclusively on PEOPLE! Follow Cara Maria on Twitter at @CaraMariaMTV.
When we last left off, Killa Kam and Kayleigh sent Paulie and Natalie packing straight to Redemption House. Now Kyle is victoriously beating his chest in the main house over Paulie being gone. Seems Kyle has Paulie’s name in his mouth and on his mind more than I ever could have…
Over at Redemption House
Paulie and Nat are thrilled to find out about a possible second chance. As they catch everyone up, Paulie again mentions he had wanted to take on Joss and Sylvia. Maybe he will have his chance next time…
Meanwhile, Chuck and Brit have found a way to mend fences for now and decide they can move forward to work together as a team. Britni just wants to get back in the house to see Brad.
Racing to work any kind of psychological warfare he can if he gets back into the main house, Paulie tells Chuck and Brit that he is going to spread a rumor that they had sex. He wants to get into Brad’s head and has no apologies about it. WELCOME to Big Brother gameplay at work in the Challenge world.
But let’s get back to the main house.
Crazy love (a.k.a. Kayleigh and Nelson)
These two are like fire and powder.
Last season, Kayleigh and Nelson got close only to turn into enemies over the revelation that Kayleigh kissed Johnny on the first night in the house. The Johnny-Kayleigh kiss was a joke and done before Kay even started to get close or develop any feelings for Nelson. But Nelson just couldn’t let it go. He brings it onto this love roller coaster ride he has with Kay this season. There has to be some strong feelings involved for this ride to keep going. And go it WILL — because, believe me, I lived with these two, and they both only had eyes for each other.
Jenna and Zach
I am so here for this. These two have me all kinds of melted.
Jenna: the beautiful Challenge sweetheart and fan favorite good girl next door + Zach: the gorgeous, tall, all American strong D1 bad boy athlete = A match made in Challenge heaven.
Zach was always Jenna’s One. I know from chats with the source himself that Jenna was always Zach’s one. However, Zach had to go through some personal growth before he could be the right kind of man for Jenna. Luckily, she was there with her arms open for him when he was ready. He told me in the past that he didn’t feel he was good enough for her. She never made him feel that way, he felt it himself. He was and is and always has been crazy about her. That is his girl. I am so happy that these two finally came together. We are all rooting for this couple. These two are star-crossed lovers when he comes to challenges. Something always pulls them apart early. Hopefully, this redemption gives them a chance to finally be together.
Angela and Johnny
Angela has a boyfriend she lives with at home, but the heart (or the game politics) wants what it wants. Right now, she has a craving for Banana. That feeling is mutual. Bananas himself says he is a smitten kitten. I know from my own chats with Johnny that he really does dig Angela. He loves her independence and how she doesn’t roll with the catty groups of girls in the house. Plus, she is easy on the bannan-eyes. ]]>👀
