Battle of the EX-iled: It Takes Two to Tangle
Similar to the "Knot So Fast" elimination from Battle of the Seasons (2012), teams will be harnessed and connected together with a 200-foot rope. On TJ's signal, both teams will weave their way in and out of a giant metal structure with the intention of making their rope as tangled and tight as possible. At the end of 20 minutes teams will switch structures now with the goal of untangling their opponents' rope. The first team to untangle their opponents' rope and return it to the center of the Dome will win and return to the competition. The losing team will be permanently eliminated from the game.

Location: Pedasí, Panama
Challenge: Wrecking Ball
Teams will start on a structure suspended 30 feet above the water. On TJ's signal players must do whatever it takes to knock their opponents off the structure. To do so they may either use the swinging heavy bag or throw dodgeballs at their opponents. Once a player falls from the structure they are out, and if both players from a team fall then they are eliminated from the challenge. The team to remain on the structure the longest will win and nominate another team for the Dome. The team to fall off first will be sent into the Dome.
