Every Winner of The Challenge, Ranked
Battle For a New Champion featured a cast of unproven challengers, making fans question just how legitimate of a champion the winner really is.
There’s a lot of factors that go into how good a winner was — how did they do in the missions, how many eliminations did they win, how strong was the competition, how hard was the final, etc.
Every win should be judged differently. While I do lump people who won together in team seasons at times in these rankings, in most cases I judge their performances individually.
I’m judging wins from every incarnation of The Challenge based on how impressive the winner’s entire season was, not just how they did in the final.
DOESN’T COUNT

This isn’t a win. Who did they beat in the final? Nobody. There wasn’t even a final. This is a Road Rules season, not a Challenge season. Please stop pretending like it’s one, Maria Menounos.
