Spoiler Warning: Details on the Feb. 1 episode of “The Challenge: Ride or Dies” are below.
For a moment, Olivia Kaiser thought her life was over.
The reality star was one half of the only rookie pair to make it to the 100-hour finale of MTV’s “The Challenge: Ride or Dies”. While she didn’t end up making it to the finish line, a freak accident on the show may have changed her life forever.
During the bola-throwing competition the karabiner connecting the rope to the balls accidentally cut her finger open.
“My finger slid under the clip and as I threw it, it dug into my finger and ripped the top of my finger off. The nerve was coming out and hanging — a little, white nerve. I thought I broke it because it hit my bone,” she told Variety.

Teen Mom Og alum Taylor Selfridge shared an emotional post about her and Cory Wharton’s infant daughter Maya’s upcoming open heart surgery.
As Monsters and Critics previously reported, Taylor and Cory’s second daughter, Maya, was born with a congenital birth defect called Tricuspid Atresia.
The newborn underwent her first surgery in June 2022 when she was just six days old and will require two more surgeries. After another open heart surgery next month, Maya will have to undergo yet another one when she’s four years old.
Already battling Covid-19 at just three months old, Maya has proven that she’s a trooper.
However, Taylor admitted that although her daughter has proven her strength, she’s still dealing with “intrusive thoughts” about all of the what-ifs involving Maya’s next surgery in October.

On Saturday night, Cory Wharton participated in the Social Gloves 2 celebrity boxing event at Banc of California Stadium in Los Angeles.
Cory, a multi-time finalist on MTV’s The Challenge, battled fellow reality TV star Chase DeMoor from Too Hot to Handle in a five-round exhibition match.

Saturday gave them a chance to settle things in the ring, although some fans, and possibly the competitors, may not have been fully satisfied with the outcome.

Siesta Key will return to MTV for a fourth season.
The hit reality series has officially been picked up for a new batch of episodes, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
However, the series is leaving the titular Siesta Key behind.
The outlet is reporting that Juliette Potter, Madisson Hausburg, Kelsey Owens, Chloe Trautman, Brandon Gomes, Amanda Miller, and Garrett Miller are all set to return for the first season produced in a Covid-19 world.
The cast and crew will take over a private resort in Sarasota, keeping everyone in a quarantine bubble, in similar vein to how The Bachelorette and the forthcoming season of Jersey Shore: Family Vacation were filmed.
The series will follow strict Covid-19 protocols, which is unsurprising. In order to be allowed to produce TV, these protocols have to be followed.
Siesta Key Season 3 was not affected by the pandemic, but it was affected by the firing of series lead Alex Kompothecras.

Siesta Key's Juliette Porter has opened up about MTV firing her ex-boyfriend, and it's clear she thinks the cable network made the right call.
If you watch Siesta Key online, you know Alex Kompothecras was the lead of the show, with all the storylines revolving around his circle of friends.
Alex was given the pink slip last week after it was discovered that he allegedly retweeted racist and white supremacist comments and memes in the past.
Kompotecras was fired just ahead of the show's midseason return, and MTV responded by cutting most of his scenes, effectively making a two-hour episode less than an hour in length.
Fans were vocal about the decision, but not all of them agreed with it, with Porter condemning these supposed fans via social media.

MTV is parting ways with another controversial reality TV star.
Alex Kompothecras, who has appeared on the first three seasons of the cabler's The Hills wannabe, Siesta Key, has been fired from the series due to an alleged history of racially-charged and insensitive messages.
The news broke Tuesday just minutes before Siesta Key Season 3 returned to the air after a midseason hiatus.
"We’ve made the decision to cut ties with Alex and are editing the current season to minimize his presence," an MTV spokesperson said last night on the show's official Twitter account, adding:
"He will not be in future seasons of Siesta Key."
Kompothecras was edited out of what was supposed to be a two-hour premiere, but MTV aired an episode that spanned just 54 minutes.
If you watch Siesta Key online, you there was a severe lack of context on the new episode, with arguments seemingly popping up out of nowhere.
Alex Kompothecras, who has appeared on the first three seasons of the cabler's The Hills wannabe, Siesta Key, has been fired from the series due to an alleged history of racially-charged and insensitive messages.
The news broke Tuesday just minutes before Siesta Key Season 3 returned to the air after a midseason hiatus.
"We’ve made the decision to cut ties with Alex and are editing the current season to minimize his presence," an MTV spokesperson said last night on the show's official Twitter account, adding:
"He will not be in future seasons of Siesta Key."
Kompothecras was edited out of what was supposed to be a two-hour premiere, but MTV aired an episode that spanned just 54 minutes.
