Despite only being on three seasons, Frank accomplished more in his brief stint on The Challenge than most do in double the amount of seasons (or more).
In his rookie campaign on Battle of the Seasons, he ran the show politically, was able to help San Diego win four missions, and he and Ashley took out Derek/Jonna in Knot So Fast before the final. San Diego was able to defeat Vegas and Brooklyn to win the final.
On Rivals II, he was partnered with Bananas over Twitter beef, and the duo never had to go into an elimination. They won two missions throughout the season, but they came up short against CT/Wes in the final.
Frank had bad luck to start Free Agents, pulling the kill card twice and having to take out Chet in Balls in and Dustin in Wrecking Wall. His illness got him pulled from the game, and he never returned to the show again (other than a brief stint as a mercenary on Vendettas, where he lost to Brad).
Frank had the potential to be an elite competitor, as he really didn’t have any holes in his game (other than not being the biggest guy in the world). However, the show clearly wasn’t good for him mentally, and he decided to step away.
Instead of going down as one of the very best players in the history of the show, he goes down as one of the biggest what-ifs.
