TJ Lavin hinted at a new twist after elimination in episode 8
The challenge The format of Season 38 has remained simple so far. Initially, there were some changes when new equipment was introduced later in the game. But after the new teams were brought in, which included big names like Johnny “Bananas” Devenanzio and Nany González, Jordan Wiseley and Aneesa Ferreira, and Veronica Portillo and Darrell Taylor, the spins seemed to stop.
However, it seems that fans can prepare for a game-changing twist in episode 9.

Team One consists of Johnny “Bananas”, Tori Deal, Nelson Thomas, Aneesa, Faysal Shafaat, Kaycee Clark, Chauncey Palmer and Olivia Kayser. Team two consists of Jordan, Nany, Devin Walker, Amber Borzotra, Horacio Gutiérrez, Moriah Jadea, Kenny Clark and Nurys Mateo.

‘The Challenge’ season 38 spoilers: the episode likely ends on a cliffhanger
So who’s going home in The challenge Season 38 episode 9? According to The challenge Season 38 spoilers posted on Reddit, Nurys Mateo and Nelson Thomas are the next team up. But it is unlikely that they will return home in episode 9. Instead, many fans believe that the twist means that the episode will end on a cliffhanger.
A fan on Reddit broke down what he thinks will happen in episode 9. The winners of the daily challenge will likely choose their teams, which is how new teams will be formed. From there, individual deletions can occur. If one person from the original ride or die pairings is eliminated, there is a chance they will return as long as the other pairing remains in the game. But if they both run or die they are eliminated, the team is eliminated. Fans will have to wait and see how this plays out with the exact rules, as this remains entirely speculative.
Unfortunately, rumors suggest that Nurys and Nelson lose their individual eliminations, resulting in their elimination as a ride or die team. But that might not happen until episodes 11 or 12.
