The Duel 2: Ep. 1 - Discussion

[quote=V1man;58577]You overstate the case., but to go further would be a spoiler.[/quote] I'm not sure I know what you mean...All I meant by a falling out is that something happened between them that caused them to break things off temporarily. Is there something wrong about that?

He (CT) sounds genuine. But something tells me it may not last.

I'm watching again :).

I would love to, but unfortunately I have work in the morning. Night all!

I missed the airing : (. Too much fun at the county fair lmaoo. Im watching the rerun now.

So the first episode was definitely a thrill. I wish they would have given some insight into Rachel and Jenn. But oh well. I definitely think it is funny how Paula and Evan are already teaming up because Paula should know better that they do not have her back. The fight was insanely intenses, and props to Aneesa for literally holding CT. Haha. The Rugby Challenge definitely has been one of my favorites ever, just because they have yet to do something so brutal. Shauvon got herself into a world of trouble by picking Aneesa. And poor Nick!:(

Remember on The Duel Tyler thought he would be picked by the girls because they'd all be cool with him, and he was left last? Ryan is repeating history.

My god the intro is hilarious!

[quote=blanky667;58599]My god the intro is hilarious![/quote] Its hilarious and I keep watching it. It cracks me up!

I love the intro. I thought it was something different and interesting.

Wow there is already drama. Cant wait for the rest of the episode!

I thought Diem was older than me. How old was she on Fresh Meat? She said something about her and CT taking a five year break and getting married when she's 30. I don't know if she meant that as a literal age thing or what.

Diem looks hot in that costume! LOL

My jaw was dropped during this whole segment.... My god what a start to this challenge.

It's neat to see them doing a challenge in a snowy environment.

It pains me to say this, because I hate CT, but I think he was in the right. It was wrong for him to beat Adam, and behave like that, but he had every right in being angry. I express myself many times on this, if you are going to say something about me, don't spread rumors confront me about it. I dislike CT, but I understand where he is coming from. I don't know if it was, because of the edit, but they did show both sides of the story.

[QUOTE=RW561015;58626]It's neat to see them doing a challenge in a snowy environment.[/QUOTE] I thought that too. It added a different feel to it.

It looks like Brad got a little bigger, or maybe I just didn't notice it on G3. I didn't know Evan and Landon were friends either.

I remember when Wes and Johanna (I think it was) were promoting a boxing night between RW/RR and Fresh Meaters, and Evan was supposed to go against someone, but Landon ended up replacing who Evan originally was supposed to fight. The event didn't happen, but I guess they did actually train at it. So maybe they got to know each other from that, or from the lecture/club circuit, or wherever else. Regardless, I did not want Evan to be in an alliance with my favorite guys on this challenge!

I can't see what you posted, Nick. Nevermind, now I can.

Can this be T.J. Lavin's last show...PLEASE? Not too many highlights from the first show...Shauvon's a *****...CT should not be allowed on anymore challenges at least not any with gay men or undersized guys since those are his targets for harassment. Honestly though, I'd love to see CT and Abe (circa 2002) on the same challenge. Might make for an interesting brawl.

They would probably just gang up on other people... lol

I thought there were going to be partners of 2 in this challenge. What happened to that?

[QUOTE=Famous.;58646]I thought there were going to be partners of 2 in this challenge. What happened to that?[/QUOTE] It comes into play later, but don't think in traditional partner terms or you will be really confused.

[quote=Insider;58644]Remember, birds of a feather flock together. They would probably just gang up on other people... lol[/quote] I think Abram seems like a nicer guy that CT overall. I haven't agreed with Abram fighting people, but I don't think he ever hit anyone who didn't provoke him like CT did to Davis. Well, actually I think CT just had his pride hurt because Kenny gave him a bloody nose when they were wrestling, and that's why he had anger, but Davis was an innocent bystander. And CT seems to be more of the guy who has a thuggish/street edge to him. But both Abram and CT have that rage issue, though. Abram and CT were on a challenge in 2003 - The Inferno. They've gotten along on shows, though. On the wrapup/intro for The Gauntlet/The Inferno, Abram said something like both he and CT were #****** so they get along.

[quote=Insider;58644]Remember, birds of a feather flock together. They would probably just gang up on other people... lol[/quote] Maybe. The difference between the two is pretty distinct though. CT is a classic bully, he uses intimidation tactics or smaller guys (Adam, Davis, Dan from Miami). When he's challenge by someone who isn't afraid and of like size (see Wes from The Original Duel), he isn't as eager to engage. Didn't Kenny wrestle CT to the ground one time? Abe was just nuts. He'd fight anyone who else. 350-pound Donnell? No problem. Adam had him by about 6-8 inches and he came right at him. I think he'd go right at CT in the first 30 minutes of the show just to see if he could beat him up. [quote=RW561015;58648]I think Abram seems like a nicer guy that CT overall.

Abe has went through at least two challenges I can remember where he didn't bother anyone and in both fights he was definitely antagonized a little. CT is a punk, straight up. He seems to one of those guys that walks around in a club with sunglasses and an Ed Hardy shirt two sizes small and hopes a bunch of little ****** swoon over him. Hard to respect a bully and I have a lot of respect for little Adam just for standing up to him. At a certain point, you have to be a man.

[quote=V1man;58647]It comes into play later, but don't think in traditional partner terms or you will be really confused.[/quote] Thanks for clearing that up!

Diem (and some other people)Caused that whole **** mess I don't understand why she was all butthurt about him Bagning Shavon. They're not together anymore(if they ever were) he is free to bang whomever and whatever he wants. It's none of her concern and I'm gald Shauvon tried to shut her up on the Aftershow. It sucks that Nick went home I wanted him to stay. And the Duel was kinda boring. More later.
