This week on The Challenge: Ride or Dies (season 38, episode 12), the male players of Faysal's team were in danger of exiting, and one contestant had to be sent directly into the elimination. The other three players were supposed to play a "sword drawing game" to protect themselves from going against one "directly eliminated" person.
Faysal Shafaat was the direct target of many contestants, and he tried to save himself by making a deal with Jordan, stating how he just wanted to stick till the finale. Jordan knew that Shafaat had no reason to lie and decided to rethink his decision to vote against him.
However, Tori also tried to convince Jordan not to evict Faysal and said that it would affect their personal relationship outside of the show. Jordan and Tori were engaged for a year before breaking up in 2020. After their split, Tori got intimate with Faysal and later said in an interview that she regretted her decision to use Shafaat as her rebound.
Jordan felt Tori was using their romantic past to sway his decision and told her he had a legacy to maintain on the show. He also announced in front of everyone that he did not negotiate with "terrorists" and had to go back on his word to protect Faysal. Jordan eventually voted against him and sent him to direct elimination.
The Challenge: Ride or Dies fans called out Tori for using her romantic past with Jordan to alter his decision.

Faysal won "the zone challenge" against Nelson and saved himself. Tori slammed Jordan for using her name in front of everyone when she did not even say anything "directly" to him. She asked him to "act like a man" and not blame his own decision on her.
The Challenge: Ride or Dies fans felt that Tori was "dumb" for trying to convince Jordan not to vote against Faysal.
What happened on The Challenge: Ride or Dies season 38, episode 11?
MTV's description of the episode reads,
"Nelson finds himself frustrated, powerless, and paranoid that he has no voice on his team. Nurys worries that her relationship with Jordan will alienate Tori and place a target on her back. TJ's challenge sends the players spinning out."
Last week on The Challenge: Ride or Dies, Nelson told Nurys that he did not feel welcome in his new team and that the other team members did not inform her of any decision. Nurys tried to comfort Nelson, even though she was now on his opposing team. He confronted his team about the same in the deliberation room.
The cast played a trivia quiz while being attached to a spinning wheel. Each wrong answer meant that the teams were to be spun for 30 more seconds. Faysal's team won the daily challenge, and since this was a girl's week elimination, Moriah, Nany, Nurys, and Amber were in danger of eviction.
Eventually, Moriah and Nany were saved by the draw. Nurys and Amber had to perform a final elimination task, and the former was evicted. Nurys was later informed that she could stay in the game (hidden from everyone) until Nelson was in the competition.
MTV airs fresh episodes of The Challenge: Ride or Dies every Wednesday at 8 pm ET.
