‘The Challenge’ Producers Host Video Call With Derrick and Horacio to Reveal Raw Footage of Controversial Elimination
'The Challenge' player Horacio previously claimed producers helped Derrick during their elimination.
Host TJ Lavin announced that Derrick beat Horacio in the competition, which included a battle to place 40 pegs into a wall amid an endurance challenge. Variety confirms that, after a week of back and forth and claims made by many cast members, producers held a Zoom call with Derrick and Horacio on Tuesday, Sept. 10, where they showed them raw footage of the rules being told to the players and the full competition. “I think the head producers of Bunim/Murray Productions and the people at MTV made a decision to do something they’ve never done in 40 seasons — because of all of the negative feedback — and that’s show me and Horacio the footage, the rules of how this thing went down,” Derrick said on Wednesday’s episode of the “Challenge Mania” podcast, which he hosts with Scott Yager.
