Classic Bananas shining the light back on himself but can we really say he’s wrong about the technicality?
Laurel didn't lose ninja, she got beat by a technicality 😏 @laurelstucky #TheChallenge34
— Johnny Bananas (@johnnybananas) September 19, 2019
I don't think there's any coincidence that the most entertaining episode of the season was heavy on the Bananas. Love me or hate me… Either way I'm on your mind 🤴 #Thechallenge34

Wes is grinning ear to ear thinking about how little people will remember his loss to Bear now.
You know this is a cast full of assholes when the world is starting to become a fan of Paulie and Cara.
— Wes Bergmann (@WestonBergmann) September 19, 2019
This is easily the most embarrassing moment in Challenge history. Congrats Ninja! We don’t deserve you.
If she would like to see how it’s done, I executed the “Suck It” dance seven years ago! But I did it properly. After I won. https://t.co/8bTU24cEMG

Derrick pointing out the irony in throwing a Challenge only to be sent into elimination.
So about that throwing the challenge and getting a strong hold on the game thing…#TheChallenge34 pic.twitter.com/6iPqinwCKd

4. Kam Williams
Kam accuses Laurel of cheating and props up Ninja for good sportsmanship.
Cheating is the most EMBARRASSING way to lose smh
— Kam I Am (@iamkamiam_) September 19, 2019
The most LEGENDARY elimination I’ve ever seen!!!! Having good sportsmanship and being humble goes a longgggg way 😭😂🔑👑

5. Marie Roda
Marie and the Petty Pod squad were out in full force backing up Laurel last night. She also drops quite the nugget of intel “Kam and Kayleigh … had to reset 6 times when going against Kyle and Brad bc they rang the bell too soon.”
Ninja got smoked. Period. #TheChallenge34
— Marie_TBD (@Marie_TBD) September 19, 2019
Talk to kam and Kayleigh who had to reset 6 times when going against Kyle and Brad bc they rang the bell too soon.

6. Jemmye Carroll
Jemmye makes a good case for why team UK should have kept a chaotic team member on Team USA.
These UK players are DUMB.. why vote in laurel when she’s the one causing chaos amongst her team. They should have went with another strong player and left the “traitor” as they call her on the team to cause internal havoc. I HATE when people don’t play a strategic game.

7. Joss Mooney
Poor Joss has been scarred for life and he wasn’t the only Challenger to comment on the “suck it” move.
That’s 5 seconds I won’t get back! Terrifying…😳 https://t.co/6kGU8qVm5d

The other half of Jogan seemed to enjoy the site.
Oh my god 😂😂😂
I almost forgot how amazing this was https://t.co/iJmCeN4PcU

Laurel’s ex-girlfriend Nicole deemed the gesture unattractive.
Most unattractive gesture ever https://t.co/JlQR1Eq3wa

Getting a lot of dms! It is what it is I made the right decision! PERIOD #thechallenge34

11. Dee Nguyen
Pretty apparent Dee was pleased with her choice as well.
Yo did they not watch last season? Y'all know that I'm in the Tribunal and @Ninja_Natalie is my girl right?! 😂#TheChallenge34 @ChallengeMTV
— Dee Nguyen (@msdeenguyen) September 19, 2019
If she wants to go against the best, let her. It's great fucking TV #TheChallenge34 @ChallengeMTV

12. Josh Martinez
Josh being incredibly amicable.
Watching tonight’s elimination was one of the hardest it was so close the whole time. All alliances and friends aside Respect to both ninja and laurel that shit was intense and showed a lot of heart 👏🏽 #TheChallenge34
— Josh Martinez (@JOSHMBB19) September 19, 2019
13. Theo Campbell
It was Theo who told Ninja where the hole was.
I accidentally snitched when I laughed at @Ninja_Natalie when I said ha there’s the hole you missed 🤪.. not knowing @laurelstucky missed the same one on the other side. So Ninja you owe me one really
— Theo Campbell (@theo_campbell91) September 19, 2019
14. Ashley Mitchell
Ashley responding to the photo that has been circulating clearly depicting a hole for Laurel to put her final peg into.
Ummmm that’s a pretty BIGGGG production screw up here. There is clearly a hole at the top there. And BOTH of them missed the one where the GoPros were blocking it. Will have a lot of takes about this on @TheRightReality this week @laurelstucky if you’d like to join #challenge34 pic.twitter.com/fcwCEtb9pQ
— Stephen LeFranc (@Hugesnlfan) September 19, 2019
It wasn't a hole to honest. It was part of the soft trust connected to skeleton of the apparatus. The actual holes were metal and different two different sizes that the peg fit snugly in…just saying what actually happened is all.
— ashley brooke (@MTVASHLEYBROOKE) September 19, 2019
Now for the main event. Laurel and Ninja were busy tweeting last night and the results leave us all wondering. Was Ninja’s win legitimate?
15. Laurel Stucky
Did they show them blowing the horn after I rang my bell? That's a pretty big detail if they didn't show that. And that's why I celebrated. And stopped…
— Laurel Stucky (@laurelstucky) September 19, 2019
This was the trickiest and weirdest experience I've ever had in a game on this show. They never make mistakes like that when it comes to game play. They checked my post and blew the horn to end game play. If anything, I believe this called for a reset.
— Laurel Stucky (@laurelstucky) September 19, 2019
Love your tweets, love your support. Thanks for expressing to me how you feel on here!
— Laurel Stucky (@laurelstucky) September 19, 2019
I must mention the reason I celebrated so hard was bc b4 we went into this elimination Ninja was loud on the bus saying she was going to "do flips up there" & that she had a world record. Well, I basically beat u up there Ninja…do I have a world record now too?
— Laurel Stucky (@laurelstucky) September 19, 2019
So, quite a boring elimination tonight, do you agree? 😂
— Laurel Stucky (@laurelstucky) September 19, 2019
isn't that just so funny? https://t.co/UnakpfAWJ7
— Laurel Stucky (@laurelstucky) September 19, 2019
Somebody could probably find me that gif of Natalie Ninja whining and crying like a baby on that one challenge where they had to carry the junkyard pieces. Yet, here she is – high horse – pretending like she's the golden standard of sportsmanship. I can't stop laughing.

UM my BFF is in the tribunal…@msdeenguyen
So like 💁🏻♀️, what is logic?#TheChallenge34— Natalie Duran (@Ninja_Natalie) September 19, 2019
ILL BE HONEST.
War of the Worlds 1 was based on camaraderie, pure strength & skill. Where winners got rewarded and protected.
HOWEVER this fun format of WOW2 let the power of politics reign. And this was the moment the curtain was shed from my eyes 👀
This is @ChallengeMTV. Yay.— Natalie Duran (@Ninja_Natalie) September 19, 2019

Sometimes it’s better not to throw the 🖕 and tell “SUCK IT B*TCH” in ANY scenario…
Because #Karma bites back HARD#TheChallenge34— Natalie Duran (@Ninja_Natalie) September 19, 2019
It’s ok @MTVASHLEYBROOKE I’ll do the dirty work for you 😉#TheChallenge34
— Natalie Duran (@Ninja_Natalie) September 19, 2019
No one ever wants to go into elimination… BUT I will tell you the joy coming out of winning one is something out of this WORLD ✨ https://t.co/UqkxParlqV
— Natalie Duran (@Ninja_Natalie) September 19, 2019
Doesn’t matter I made it to the top first anyways 😉 and people actually there will vouch
Knew what the rules were *place all piles at the FACE of the tree*, and just didn’t cheat 💁🏻♀️— Natalie Duran (@Ninja_Natalie) September 19, 2019
Technically or not, throwing a 🖕 doesn’t look good on ANYONE pic.twitter.com/nUSA6dN8Fs

Y’all killing me with the multiple “Well deserved loss” for Laurel 😂🙌🏼☠️#TheChallenge34
— Natalie Duran (@Ninja_Natalie) September 19, 2019
The last time I used the *suck it* move was like hmmm…. 5th grade?
How bout y’all? 🤔— Natalie Duran (@Ninja_Natalie) September 19, 2019
Karma is a dish best served immediately ✨

The exact moment where Karma was like… aight’ we need to get this shiz on lockdown NOW 💥 https://t.co/rmScq7zWsf

Camaraderie and supportive athletes is what was the biggest cultural shock coming from American Ninja Warrior to The Challenge.
But that's not saying game of The Challenge is something so much more dynamic, and you do feel like you come out stronger. But fight the negativity. https://t.co/9h2mKuaaoZ— Natalie Duran (@Ninja_Natalie) September 19, 2019
BONUS: Jordan Wisely
Jordan confirming what Laurel stating in one of her tweets. They did in fact take time to verify her win before having TJ blow the horn. What do you think production should have done? A reset or let Ninja have the win?
