Biography[]

The Inferno[]

Retrieved from MTV.com

Hottest Pre-Inferno Moment: Having a hot head, fighting with all of his roommates and nearly burning down the chateau with the straightening iron. Also hot: when he declared roommate Christina's body "on fi-yah."

Loose Ends: His past problems with Leah and the rest of his Paris roommates may affect team dynamics if they fight on The Inferno. CT is a big, strong guy, but his personal interactions may turn out to be his downfall.

The Inferno II[]

Retrieved from MTV.com

The Good: He's a sweet guy under his tough exterior -- he even sent tulips to his Paris roommates for Valentine's Day.

The Bad: Oops, our bad, he took credit for the flowers, when he had nothing to do with the special delivery. If it will help him, he'll tell people what they want to hear even if it's a lie.

The Ugly: His desire to win overrides any previous friendships he has with teammates - remember him taunting Leah to "step it up" during the last Inferno? Harsh!

The Duel[]

Retrieved from MTV.com

He's a sweet guy under his tough exterior -- he even sent tulips to his Paris roommates for Valentine's Day. Oops, our bad: he took credit for the flowers, even though he had nothing to do with the special delivery. If it will help him, he'll tell people what they want to hear even if it's a lie. His desire to win overrides any previous friendships he has with teammates -- remember how he taunted Leah to "step it up" during The Inferno? Harsh! But, he saved hometown friend David by taking his place in the Inferno. Taking a spin after eating a hefty helping of cookies and milk, CT's iron stomach saved him from elimination, but his Bad Guys were beaten in the final mission by the Good Guys. Back after a vacation from the Challenge, will this bad boy's good deed pay off with a big win?

The Inferno 3[]

Retrieved from MTV.com

He's a sweet guy under his tough exterior -- he even sent tulips to his Paris roommates for Valentine's Day. Oops, our bad: he took credit for the flowers, even though he had nothing to do with the special delivery. We first saw proof of this softer side when he saved hometown friend David by taking his place in the Inferno. More recently on The Duel, we watched in amazement as romance blossomed between this notorious bad boy and Fresh Meat's Diem. Who could have imagined?! CT is epitome of a Challenge Bad Ass. Has Diem softened up this tough guy or will we see the rough and tough CT we all knew and loved to watch?

The Gauntlet III[]

Retrieved from MTV.com

There's few who play the game quite like CT. A fast-talker, a notorious schemer, and most of all a loose cannon, CT left The Inferno 3 early after punching Davis in the eye. Before that, he had a vicious meltdown on The Duel after he lost to Brad, and threatened to "murder" Wes. CT's softer side came out on The Duel, when romance blossomed with Diem, making for the most unlikely "teaming" in Challenge history.

The Duel II[]

Retrieved from MTV.com

A Challenge veteran, CT is no stranger to fans of the series, who know him for being someone who will do anything to win -- including lie, cheat and steal. He's a hard-partier who has been kicked out of past competitions for drinking too much and fighting (remember the black eye he gave Davis before The Inferno 3 even got underway?). Since being on the losing side of the last Gauntlet finale, he's been traveling around the United States. But after finding out he was going to New Zealand for another shot at winning a Challenge, he says he's "been pumping a lot of iron in preparation. I've got more motivation than ever before."

Rivals[]

Retrieved from MTV.com

Perhaps the most feared man in Challenge history, sexy bad-boy CT enters Rivals with a new attitude, revealing, "I've been staying out of trouble, surrounding myself with good people, trying to do the right thing and not be a knucklehead." While CT insists that his dark days are behind him, not everyone is buying his "Mr. Nice Guy" attitude makeover. This Challenge goliath's mere presence alone will put a target on his back. The men want CT out of the game. And as far as the women... look for this lady's man to get tangled up in a very messy -- and unexpected -- love triangle.

Battle of the Exes[]

Retrieved from MTV.com

CT struck up a romance with Diem on The Duel and the relationship blossomed as Diem, a survivor of ovarian cancer, found solace with CT during her difficult recovery process. However, when Diem decided to focus all her energy on her career the two parted ways. Things took a darker turn, when the two exes returned for The Duel II and Adam told Diem that CT had been hooking up with Shauvon and they haven't spoken or seen each other since. News of their partnership has reopened old wounds for Diem who maintains, "I don't know what our dynamic is at this point other than the fact that I'm still angry. Like, I'm pissed." CT remains undeterred by Diem's rage, claiming, "There's no way she can be mad at me cause I won't let her be mad at me." Will bad boy, CT charm his way back into Diem's heart or will their turbulent past prove to be too much to overcome?

Rivals II[]

Retrieved from MTV.com

Wes and CT have one of the most infamous rivalries in Challenge history. Their tumultuous past dates all the way back to The Duel, and most recently flared up on Rivals when Wes tried to take CT out of the game. "I'm paired with someone who's threatened my family's life, who I've gotten in screaming matches with in four or five different countries, that I legitimately am scared of," Wes explains. However, these two savvy players understand they'll need to keep the peace in order to bring home a win. CT promises, "We may not be the best of friends now, and we may not be the best of friends in the end, but we both want to win. We're gonna give everyone a run for their money." Ever the bad-boy Romeo, CT ends up romancing his ex, Diem, but also cozies up to several other girls in the house for political purposes. Wes may finally have a pit bull for a partner, but can he keep him on his leash? Or will CT's impulsive personality send this power team packing?

Free Agents[]

Retrieved from MTV.com

After ten seasons, Challenge legend CT finally notched a win, taking first place on Rivals II. One of the most respected and feared players in the game, CT is equal parts athlete and politician. While the Free Agents twist sends many of his fellow veterans scrambling, CT is already a step ahead. He cautions, "Sooner or later your number's going to get called. I've always been a free agent and now everybody's gonna have to play my game." Can CT make it two wins in a row? Or will he relinquish his Challenge crown?

Battle of the Exes II[]

Retrieved from MTV.com

CT and Diem hold the record for the longest standing love story in Challenge history. After meeting on The Duel, CT fell for Diem when she bravely removed her wig for a mud challenge, fresh after a battle with ovarian cancer. The two continued their romance off the show and fell deeply in love. However, their relationship hit rocky ground when Diem set her focus on her career. The pair overcame their obstacles and won second place on Battle of the Exes, but their trust was damaged at the end of Rivals II, when Diem felt betrayed by CT's political game. CT admits, "I'm looking forward to redeeming myself with Diem. This is Diem's game. Diem deserves to win." CT and Diem weathered many storms, and their epic on-again, off-again love sustained over the years. Diem explains, "Seeing CT here gives me some sort of relief that somebody is somewhat in my corner. This Challenge will show what type of relationship we have."

Invasion of the Champions[]

Retrieved from MTV.com

CT makes a triumphant return to The Challenge after a three-year absence. Since going off the grid, this reformed Boston bad boy has emerged with a new outlook on life, "I used to have a chip on my shoulder but I'm not that same guy anymore. Life is funny. It's up and down for sure, but right now I'm in a high point in my life and I'm excited to be back." But don't be fooled, this power player is ready to smash heads on the battlefield and show these new kids why he is a legend. And in a moment that you will never see coming, CT will reveal the shocking reason he needs to win the money and leave viewers speechless.

Dirty 30[]

Retrieved from MTV.com

CT is undeniably The Challenge's number-one bad boy, with seasons worth of arguments under his belt. From being disqualified in the middle of an elimination (The Duel) to getting sent home for fighting (The Duel II), CT is still as dirty as ever. The Invasion of the Champions gold medalist insists he has changed through the years -- but will his past tendencies to throw down emerge because he's surrounded by all of these (fellow) dirty players?

Champs vs. Stars 1[]

Retrieved from MTV.com

Chris 'CT' Tamburello is the The Challenge's number one bad boy, with seasons full of arguments, fights, finals, and championships under his belt. Known for dominating in every type of competition, 'CT' is equally strong at food and puzzle challenges as well as challenges that require strength and endurance. With a track record full of fist fights and shouting matches, 'CT' has no problem calling people out and telling them to back off – Stars beware. The charity he'll be playing for is F.I.G.H.T.

Champs vs. Stars 2[]

Retrieved from MTV.com

From bad boy to dad bod, there is no Challenge competitor quite like Chris 'CT' Tamburello. Returning from his last Champs vs. Stars win, CT is back to raise more money for charity, but also to show any Star that this is the Champs game, and no one can take that title away from them. Known for his super human strength, willingness to eat just about anything, and never backing down from a confrontation, there’s not much that CT can't, or won't, do for a win. As long as his temper doesn't get the best of him, CT will always remain a huge force to be reckoned with for any Champ and Star. The charity he'll be playing for is F.I.G.H.T.

Final Reckoning[]

Retrieved from MTV.com

Challenge Veterans, CT and Veronica, have competed on their fair share of seasons together. Reuniting on The Challenge: Dirty 30, the pair consistently argued with one another. When CT was given the opportunity, he sent Veronica into elimination, claiming that no one wanted to be on a team with her. After returning from elimination, Veronica earned her revenge by sending CT straight to the Redemption House. Will these two Vets be able to put their differences aside and claim another Challenge victory?

War of the Worlds[]

Retrieved from MTV.com

With 15 years of Challenge experience under his belt, nobody knows the game quite like CT. No stranger to confrontation, his short fuse was once his Achilles heel, getting him kicked off of multiple Challenges. Now a newlywed and a father, CT has come a long way from his wild past – but his competitive spirit hasn't waned. This season, he returns to the game hoping to bring home the money to support his new family. Will his Veteran savviness keep him a step ahead of the less-seasoned competition, or will his legendary status plant a massive target on his back?

War of the Worlds 2[]

Retrieved from MTV.com

At the peak of his powers, CT was perhaps as feared a competitor as The Challenge has ever seen. Nowadays, the savvy schemer lets his intimidating reputation speak for itself while doing his best to play the middle politically. Still, don't be fooled into thinking that neutrality makes him any less of a threat. Despite disappointing showings in his last two outings, CT is back to regain his glory and remind both Rookies and Vets why he deserves their respect.

Total Madness[]

Retrieved from MTV.com

Never doubt CT -- the hard lesson learned by Team USA on War of the Worlds 2 as they turned their backs on the legendary Veteran only for him to lead the underdog Team U.K. to Finals glory. Now, the reigning champion and all-time great is back, hoping his usual recipe of intimidation and playing the middle politically is enough to help him defend his crown. Of course, with an epic new game twist, this seasoned Vet may find himself scrambling to come up with an entirely different strategy if he wants to make back-to-back Finals. As daunting as that goal seems, you'd have to be crazy to count him out.

Double Agents[]

Retrieved from MTV.com

All-time Challenge legend CT enters this season looking for redemption after an embarrassing elimination upset from Jay, who sent him home early on Total Madness. CT can no longer rely on his usual blend of tricks -- intimidation, playing the middle politically and acting as a lovable sage to younger players -- to coast through the game. This time around, CT is more focused and intent on reminding everyone why he is truly an agent to be feared and respected. Even though he is struggling through a rocky marriage, CT arrives cleared-eyed and determined not to let anyone stand in the way of bringing home the prize to his son CJ. One thing pretty much everyone can agree on is no one wants to see him in a final. Even 18 seasons of The Challenge in, he is still a massive threat to win it all.

Spies, Lies & Allies[]

Retrieved from MTV.com

The reigning Challenge champion and one of the all-time greats, CT returns to the game to defend his crown. His showing on last season's The Challenge: Double Agents was a master class in physical domination, sneaky game-play and doing whatever it took to win. Of course, CT's utter dominance in the Final may have signaled to his fellow Challengers his "old man" act is a total ruse and he still remains one of the greatest threats in the game. As a result, he's sure to have plenty of targets on him and may need to devise a new political strategy to survive. Nevertheless, with his legacy on the line, CT won't let anything stand in the way of another victory.

Battle for a New Champion[]

Retrieved from MTV.com

Perhaps one of the greatest Challengers to ever play the game, the five-time Challenge Champion is back. After a bumpy early road in his Challenger career, he found wins in The Challenge: Rivals II (Season 24), The Challenge: Invasion (Season 29) and The Challenge: War of the Worlds 2 (Season 34). With recent back-to-back wins on The Challenge: Double Agents (Season 36) and The Challenge: Spies, Lies and Allies (Season 37), the GOAT is ready to see if the new bloods have what it takes to compete with the best the game has to offer.
