War of the Worlds[]

Accurately nicknamed "Turbo," this MMA fighter/dancer made a name for himself as a dominating force on Survivor Turkey, which he won twice. Turbo is certain to be one of the most intimidating physical performers The Challenge has ever seen and will let nothing stand in the way of him taking home top prize. On the flip side, his relentless commitment to victory may impact his ability to work alongside even the most competitive Veteran partner. Can anyone manage to live up to Turbo's intensity, or will it be his downfall?

War of the Worlds 2[]

Turbo makes his immediate return to wreak havoc as a Reinforcement after becoming the first solo Rookie winner on War of the Worlds. The two-time Survivor Turkey champion proved himself to be an intimidating presence from the start, and his physical domination helped him breeze through the game and overcome the most grueling Final The Challenge has ever seen. Known for his utter fearlessness and devotion to competition, Turbo's Achilles heel may be his notorious stubbornness and temper. Regardless of his team, Turbo will have to contend with being a massive target as he looks to lock down unprecedented back-to-back titles.

Ride or Dies[]

Turbo was set to be one of the greatest Challengers to ever play after being the first solo rookie winner, but he lost the chance to play again after a tumultuous second season resulted in his disqualification. Now the two-time Survivor Turkey champion rides again, bringing along his Ride or Die Tamara. Turbo hopes that together with Tamara he will be able to make the final and take it all the way, just as he has once before.
