MTV's The Challenge: Rivals 2 is back! Starting Wednesday, July 10th, 32 cast members from past Real World and Challenge seasons will be battling it out for $350,000. The season was filmed in Thailand, where 2009's Challenge: The Ruins was shot.

Wes and CT get into a verbal altercation
last year on The Challenge Rivals

16 women and 16 men will be divided into two-person teams, rivals as their partner. Will these hot heads be able to work together to make it to the end?

Exes Diem Brown and one of my favorite cast members, CT Tamburello will both be back, competing on separate teams this time around.

CT is paired up with his much known rival Wes. This is a stacked team! If these two are able to get along, I see them winning a lot of challenges and making it far.
