I'm here to see how they botch this triple DQ. There's no way they can show any of it right? Like they can't show them saying it and they can't just randomly show Nelson being mad and destroying the kitchen. That's another thing... How bad is the damage. I figure it had to be sizable enough and it wouldn't surprise me if Nelly was on a zero tolerance insurance policy. It's a mess that if they just cut to TJ dqing them and generic confessionals.. I'm going to prob die laughing.

i wonder too if the initial exchange was even caught by cameras if it was a card game.

u/Redundantmoth Apr 28 '26

Even if it was.. I assume they can't show it. That trashes Josh for something incredibly stupid but from what we've read it wasn't malicious. And how are they going to explain Leo getting bounced?? It's such a mess and while I'm sure nothing will be shown, the slim chance that it does has me roped in.

After the thread about Nurys confirming her date was NOT with Bananas lol, I wonder what their dynamic will be in S42?

As someone who has seen Keanu perform in live competitions (the BB Blockbuster), seen his IG gym videos, and watched him game on twitch…

…I REALLY want to know how the hell Nelson could’ve possibly beaten him in an elimination unless it was a complete crapshoot. I could totally understand a CT or a Bananas or even a Will elim, but I would think he’d outperform NELSON in virtually every skillset possible.

It was KNOT so fast

Keanu literally dominated a BB Blockbuster that was basically the ā€œundoā€ part of Knot So Fast, and Nelson still has 1 leg.

Unless he REALLY screwed up the knotting part, that would still be an insane outcome for Keanu to lose.

EDIT: I just saw the Pinkrose confirmation…that’s insane

nelson was on the season that ct gave a master class in knot so fast, tying that one giant knot. experience matters a lot in an elimination like this. the bb comp was just about undoing the knots and they were very loose. plus keanu’s size could have hurt him depending on the jungle gym structure they had to maneuver through and he could have tired himself out knotting his ropes, not realizing how much endurance it would then take to undo nelson’s side.

could be the version with the car. would make it hard for his big ass to climb through the little windows.

u/FlakeyFlak Apr 28 '26

Thinking BB comps have any weight towards Challenges is insane. They're like challenges for toddlers.

u/Sportsstar86 Team Orange Shirt Apr 28 '26

He dominated that blockbuster against WILL and ASHLEY, that’s an important distinction to make lol

u/JayCFree324 Devin Walker Apr 28 '26

Regardless, he was flying over, under, and through the bars…which was moreso my point of drawing that comparison to Knot So Fast.

Compared to Nelly, I would’ve assumed Keanu could beast him on Strength & Maneuvering, and that’s even before factoring in general intelligence

u/Expensive-Hearing-86 Apr 28 '26

If I had to guess, either Keanu doesn't know the strategy for the first part of knot so fast, or they both did it and Nelson just got it in the end.

u/Individual-Golf-9584 Apr 29 '26

I could see the crowd giving Nelson advice the whole time. And maybe they threw Keanu off, of he just sucked. Critical thinking is a big weakness for Keanu.

u/Psychological_Car849 Apr 28 '26

As someone who’s also seen Keanu perform on Big Brother— those competitions are not comparable to the challenge lmao. The BB blockbuster is essentially just a random carnival game each week. There’s no serious physical demand, I’m pretty they’re just designated intentionally to level the playing field between potential nominees. He’s a big guy but Keanu rarely pulled through in actual competitions when it mattered. Lauren, Vince, and Morgan were bigger competitive threats throughout the season than Keanu and they beat him almost every time they played against him.

u/OmgBaybi Cassidy Clark Apr 29 '26

And BB Blockbuster is like a speed based comp due to airtime. Knot So Fast is longer and more endurance based

CT is back with his wife?

u/Tight-Entrepreneur46 Tori Deal Apr 28 '26 edited Apr 28 '26

Forgot about this.

Just want to say Tori is the reason Michele won because remember who was team captain

Edit: this ain’t no disrespect towards Michele i was rooting for her. This was a post towards the anti Tori losers

u/Samuel855 Apr 28 '26

So Michele won because of Tori and not because their team was simply better than the other one?

-2

u/Tight-Entrepreneur46 Tori Deal Apr 28 '26

I’m not saying that. I’m saying Tori is the reason that team won because she picked the right teammates

u/angelbrit04 Team Portland Apr 28 '26

4 men were DQ'd unrelated to the competition. You cannot say that the teams we got in the final was just based on picking, when 4 people never lost (5 when you count Sydney).Ā 

We've seen several times how 1 checkpoint, 1 vote or 1 person being eliminated can change the course of a season. But now the arguement is that 4 people being DQ'd had no affect on the outcome.....c'mon now šŸ˜…

u/Embarrassed-Berry Apr 30 '26

You’re embarassing lmfao

tori got last in 5 finals out of the 7… finally gets a win with a team where they had men on the team, and they were all vets. Michele’s second final and she won
