The show that invented the reality competition genre is back for its 35th season with The Challenge: Total Madness airing Wednesday nights on MTV. Following a successful season of “War of the Worlds 2,” the explosive new season returns to a solo game format where no one is safe and it’s every traitor for themselves. Twenty-eight players (including 21 veterans and seven rookies) will face the most insane and strenuous challenges ever devised in pursuit of the $1 million-dollar prize. With a shocking twist and grueling mental warfare, who will take home the million dollars and who will succumb to madness?

Jordan Wisely is a six-time competitor on The Challenge and also the reigning champion who emerged victorious after last season’s The Challenge: War of the Worlds 2. The 29-year-old actor and fashion designer from Oklahoma first rose to fame as a cast member on MTV’s The Real World: Portland. Now Jordan puts it all on the line as he competes in the biggest – and possibly, most dangerous – version of The Challenge in the show’s 22-year history.
