Biography[]
Dirty 30[]Retrieved from MTV.com After her stints on Are You the One? and Are You the One: Second Chances, Tori has shown she is a genuine, well-rounded player who's not only sexy but smart too. Although this is her first Challenge appearance, the newbie has the skills to take down even the best manipulators -- namely, her enemy Devin. Will she be able to use her politicking skills and avoid the Rookie layup curse?
Champs vs. Stars 2[]Retrieved from MTV.com After making the Final in her Rookie season of Dirty 30 and joining Champs vs. Stars as a replacement player last season, Tori is back and ready to leave it all on the table this time around. With a combination of athleticism, determination and a fiery personality, the former Are You the One? alum clearly has what it takes to compete alongside some of The Challenge's most notorious and proven Vets. Nicknamed "the Tornado," look for Tori to use her good looks and flirtatious spirit as she is sure to shake up the game by charming the guys and becoming fast friends with the girls. The charity she'll be playing for is PANCAN.
Final Reckoning[]Retrieved from MTV.com These Are You the One? alums met while filming Are You the One?: Second Chances and came onto The Challenge: Dirty 30 as a couple, attached at the hip. Tori was a strong competitor out of the gate and made it her mission to not only win, but to do it alongside her boyfriend. However, following Derrick's early exit after an embarrassing elimination, Tori cheated on him with Challenge champ Jordan. Derrick was left both heartbroken and angry, leaving them both on bad terms.
War of the Worlds 2[]Retrieved from MTV.com One-time Rookie of the Year Tori returns to the game looking to build off her impressive third-place showing from her debut season -- and this time, walk away a Challenge champion. A well-rounded player with a laid-back personality, she undoubtedly is a major asset for Team U.S. Tori and beau Jordan are two formidable competitors who could emerge as a dominant power couple; however, their daunting reputations could put early targets on their backs. Regardless, Tori will have to dig deep and play her own game if she hopes to make her way back to glory.
Total Madness[]Retrieved from MTV.com One of the most fearsome all-around Challenge competitors, Tori made it all the way to the Finals of War of the Worlds 2 only to walk away empty-handed after losing in a puzzle purge. Fortunately for Tori, those empty hands had a shiny new ring, as she surprisingly got engaged to Jordan. Now, she's back and hungry for her first Challenge victory -- hopefully one she can enjoy beside her soon-to-be husband. While entering the game as a power couple has its advantages, Tori will have to make sure Jordan's hostile tendencies don't reflect onto her. If she can stay focused on her own game, Tori has a fantastic chance to take home the W.
Double Agents[]Retrieved from MTV.com Tori has established a reputation as one of the most respected and well-liked competitors in the game. Unfortunately, that reputation hasn't exactly guaranteed her success, and she is still searching for her first Challenge win. This season, Tori enters the game with a new mindset, looking to play a ruthless power game and muscle her way to a Final. She will need to maintain her focus and avoid letting her guard down, as the knives are most definitely out for Tori, but no one ever makes it to a million dollars without making some enemies along the way, so don't be surprised if Tori ruffles some feathers.
Spies, Lies & Allies[]Retrieved from MTV.com After two straight disappointing competition losses, Tori returns looking to regroup, tamp down her bravado and continue to hunt her first Challenge championship. Now, entering the game with a clean slate, Tori finds herself single and ready to make moves using her physical, social and political strengths. With best friend, Aneesa, at her side, Tori hopes to navigate a path between competitiveness and fun. If she's able to do so, this could definitely be the season she breaks through to the top.
Ride or Dies[]Retrieved from MTV.com Despite a few tumultuous years, Tori is coming off her silver-medal season in a good place. On her seventh Challenge, Tori is not only ready physically but mentally, as she has taken time to work on herself. While her partnership with Devin has faced its ups and downs over the years, they both have one goal in mind: to make this season "lucky number seven." However, Tori will be rocked by a twist that she never saw coming...
The Challenge: USA 2[]Retrieved from Parade.com Tori came out swinging in her rookie season, making the finale against some stiff competition. Over her time in The Challenge, we have seen her fall in and out of love (and then have to play alongside that love later) and make dear friends, as well as sworn enemies. This past season, Tori was finally able to get her first win alongside her "ride-or-die" Devin.
Battle for a New Champion[]Retrieved from MTV.com A social and physical threat, Tori finally found success after three Finals appearances, taking home the win in The Challenge: Ride or Dies (Season 38) alongside close friend Devin. Tori is known to be feared amongst everyone as she is beast in all types of competition. She's eager to take on the contenders and show them how a Champion plays the game. |
