Paulie looked like Chris Jericho at the reunion.

Paulie looks awful. What happened to him? The bloat, the weight, the hair, the outfit, the dead eyes.

Season 34 Episode 16 - "Give Me Liberty or Give Me Cash" - December 11, 2019
I have to give total credit to the alliance called Cara's Cult by it's enemies and The Royal Family, the name the alliance gave itself, for achieving it's goal of keeping it's members safe and getting them all to the final. That is exactly what happened. The alliance also comprised 75% of both Team UK and Team USA in stage two of the final. Again an amazing accomplishment. While each team had a non alliance member, Jordan on Team UK was helpful to that team as a whole. On the other hand Zach the only non alliance member on Team USA actively complained and looked as if he demoralized, maybe sabotaged his team?

Season 34 Episode 17 - Reunion Special - December 18, 2019Wes did not attend but there was a video call with him talking to the host and cast.
Turbo did not attend but instead sent in a film clip to all the chicken pussies on the cast.
Overall the cast did a lot of shouting and I do wonder if it is simply for camera time. Lots of yelling and posturing and a waste of time not entertaining at all. Justine did get some good questions in and stuff was explained. Jordan was losing it when talking to Ninja and I don't know if that was an act or not. Jordan simply do not listen to what Ninja was saying and it looked as if he was going to rage but Tori calmed him down. He was totally out of line calling the Ninja Warrior Games not sport vs what happens on the Challenge. All the guys have the attitude you can say and do whatever in the game as it mean nothing but you can tell some folks take it very personally.

Well I suppose Jordan proposing to Tori was inspirational I just hope he doesn't mess it up.

What I hate about many of the reviews and recaps on EW and other places is that they cannot think for themselves and simply echo the comments made by Zach and Jordan constantly stating that Cara and Paulie weaken the US Team. Really? How so? The US team was stacked with experienced players who dominated the daily challenges to the point they called the shots on both teams. Who did they eliminate on their side Laurel, Tori, Nany, Jordan, Josh, and Bananas. Laurel was behind Wes being eliminated and Faith left. The remaining people were strong except for their swimming ability. Lets face it Georgia and Jenny were the two powerhouses on the UK women's side.
What I really hate is hearing Zach say all season how weak Cara Maria and Ninja were yet they both made it to the final stage 1 and stage 2. Everyone in reviews and recaps picks up on it because it is easy instead of using their brains and making up their own opinions. I just wish instead of the constant complaining Zach would have tried to be positive (yes it would have killed him to be) and come up with a way to help instead of not.

I don't know if team USA would have made it to the end of the part one final without Leroy and Zach. Cara wasn't at her best in the final. Besides Zach's comments, Leroy also said that Ninja was basically useless in the final.

Besides Zach's comments, Leroy also said that Ninja was basically useless in the final. The initial plan for Team US during stage one carrying the gurney was for Zach and Leroy and Paulie to do all four legs with one of the girls doing a leg each. However Zach refused to do two legs in a row so that messed up the rotation. It didn't help also because of the height difference between Cara and Ninja being shorter girls. Does anyone know the weight each team carried? How heavy was a gurney? Team US had 140 lbs in sandbags (7 people on the team x 20 lbs for each player) vs Team UK carrying 80lbs (4 people on the team x 20lbs). Why was carrying the gurney so hard? Could the girls on Team USA carry the gurney and the weight? Could they have done it if the guys took some of the sandbags off? It is annoying when we don't know the answers to these questions.

Besides Zach's comments, Leroy also said that Ninja was basically useless in the final. Kam did say at the reunion that they didn't have a good plan as to who would carry the gurney. In a podcast Cara said that Zach refused to carry the gurney two times in a row. Even if Leroy says that Ninja was useless in the final she has an amazing record of being in two Challenges and manages to get into the final both times and finish both finals.

I decided to rewatch the reunion and the two episodes of the finale.
With calmer eyes and head I listened to Paulie state that he did not train to carry weight and that is what did him in. So how did you train differently from every other person in the finale? How did 11 other people do it differently?
I do not understand Zach at all. His constant complaining adds nothing. He also cannot do a puzzle to save his life (OK he did one at the purge, normally he just steps aside on puzzles and he has stated how he sucks at them). What I do not understand is all the energy he spends being angry at his team. If he ran this game as an individual he would have had to time out on every puzzle.
I do not understand why Cara was such a baby this finale, I have seen her perform better. I do wonder though for a person whose profession is to be in the Challenge I would learn to swim, and do math, and work on her aim in regards to getting balls in baskets and through hoops.Cara does do puzzles better. I just wish she would quit getting into twitter wars with the other females. She is never going to win and she should do what Bananas does and not really have that presence on social media. I also think she needs to spend some with a sports therapist and learn to work better under pressure. After so many challenges she should be improving in those areas not getting worst.
What was confusing on the reunion was Justina Valentine saying that War of the Worlds 2 was part of the War of the Worlds Trilogy when it has already been stated that Vendettas, Final Reckoning and War of the Worlds was supposed to be a trilogy?
