2 Oct
Summary
- CT Tamburello, a 5-time champion, struggled in recent season but still beat most rookies
- Rookies disrespected and body-shamed CT, who says he needs to train harder before future seasons
- CT overcame his fear of heights during the season and is now motivated to return transformed

In the recent season of the reality TV show The Challenge: Vets and New Threats, 45-year-old veteran CT Tamburello faced a rude awakening. Despite his impressive 5-time champion status, the rookies on the show openly disrespected and body-shamed CT for his visible struggles during the challenges.
However, CT proved he is still a force to be reckoned with, beating most of the rookies (and veterans) during a grueling mini-final challenge. Ultimately, he was eliminated after being disqualified from a trivia challenge.
Watching his own performance and the other players' comments has been a wake-up call for CT. He admits he let himself go and needs to take better care of himself before future seasons. CT is now training hard and "eating healthy" to transform himself, determined to show the rookies that he can still win.
Overcoming his fear of heights was a pivotal moment for CT during the season. He is proud of finally jumping from a 40-foot platform without incident, no longer feeling afraid. CT is using this as motivation as he prepares for his comeback.
While some players showed him grace, CT is also calling out those who disrespected him. He believes he deserved more respect and is ready to prove he can still dominate the competition, saying "I'll be honest with you, I'm coming back, motherfuckers."
