'Challenge Total Madness' Elimination Order: How Each Cast Member Was Sent Home Through Episode 12

“The Challenge: Total Madness” is headed toward the finish line. Half of the initial cast has been eliminated and we’re already 12 episodes into the Season 35 of the hit MTV reality-TV series.

Time is running out for the remaining contestants, who don’t know when the Final is set to begin. Nine of the 14 players have earned a red skull in Purgatory (elimination), which is required to compete for a share of the $1 million grand prize.

Here’s a quick look at all the “Total Madness” contestants that have been eliminated and the order in which they were sent home.

1) Asaf Goren

The “Big Brother (Israel)” and “So You Think You Can Dance” alum didn’t make it past the season premiere. After a brief romance with Nany Gonzalez in episode 1, Asaf was eliminated by Jay.

2) Jenn Lee

The first female sent home was also a rookie. Jenn Lee was taken out by Jenny West in the most one-sided elimination of the season.

3) Chris “CT” Tamburello

Sending himself into Purgatory as a member of the Tribunal proved to be a mistake for CT. He was eliminated by Jay in the biggest upset of “Total Madness.”

4) Ashley Mitchell

With a little help from Wes, Dee Nguyen defeated Ashley in Purgatory. Ashley still holds the record for most money won in “Challenge” history.

5) Justin “Jay” Starrett

Jay’s luck ran out with a third straight trip to Purgatory. Rogan O’Connor sent him packing after a collision left Jay medically disqualified with a possible head injury.

6) Tori Deal

Tori’s elimination was similar to that of CT. Arguably the best female competitor on “Total Madness,” Tori volunteered to go into Purgatory, only to be eliminated by Jenna.

7) Stephen Bear, Jordan Wiseley

In a double elimination, Nelson Thomas defeated Bear and Faysal Shawn “Fessy” Shafaat beat Jordan in Pole Wrestle. Fessy made quick work of Jordan, who had won each of the last three seasons in which he competed.

8) Kailah Casillas, Jenna Compono

Three women actually left the show in one episode because Tula “Big T” Fazakerley was sent home with a toe injury. Rookie Kaycee Clark proved to be a tough competitor by eliminating Kailah, and Aneesa Ferreira beat Jenna in an extremely close elimination.

9) Wes Bergmann

The unholy alliance between Wes and Johnny “Bananas” Devenanzio lasted until episode 10 when the two “Challenge” legends did battle in Purgatory. Wes used his spot in the Tribunal to face Bananas in one of the most memorable eliminations in recent years.

10) Mattie Lynn Breaux

Frustrated that she didn’t have a red skull, Mattie asked to be the house vote for Purgatory. The decision backfired when Dee, who was blindsided by Bananas and Josh Martinez in the Tribunal, made quick work of Mattie in elimination.

11) Christopher “Swaggy C” Williams

With the help of Bayleigh Dayton and Fessy, Swaggy was sent into Purgatory in pursuit of his red skull. The rookie lost his first-ever elimination against Cory Wharton, who’s now eligible to run the Final.
