After airing its first season in 1997, The Challenge is currently in its 39th season and has become a generational hit. Its popularity led to both its 26-year run and international adaptations of its concept.
The Challenge: Battle for a New Champion features a cast of 24 tough contestants sourced from the previous seasons of The Challenge who have never won the title, which makes the already competitive show even more difficult.
While watching season 39, fans wonder about the ages of the contestants on the show because the ones this season are athletic, tactical, and competitive—perfect for the frightening challenges the show is known for. They also wonder how old Horacio and Nurys are, whose romance bud is on the show, in front of the fans.
