Meet Ed Eason from The Challenge

The Challenge isn’t Ed’s first game show. He is known for appearing on Netflix’s The Circle Season 1, which premiered in January 2020.

The 25-year-old hails from Philadelphia and wants to create “chaos” on the MTV show, or at least that’s what he says to his fellow contestants.

Ed could be a tough competition considering he’s an athlete and an extreme sports junkie. He also has an Ivy League degree in engineering. Talking about Ed’s taste in music, he says he listens to “all of it”.

Furthermore, he believes people have an incorrect image of him.

“Just because I am not the tallest dude out there, people are going to underestimate me. But I am a powerhouse. Don’t get me wrong, “ Ed explains.

Who is he paired with?

Ed will partner Andreea Emilia “Emy” Alupie for the mission Heli Heist in Episode 2 of The Challenge.

Emy was paired with Corey L in the first episode of The Challenge for the mission, “compromised”. She is a Romanian rapper known for her appearances on X Factor Romania and Survivor Romania.

Meanwhile, Ed’s entry followed Nam’s elimination prior to Back Me Up. He was disqualified from the game last week after he tested positive for COVID-19.

Reportedly, all the contestants entered a 10-day quarantine following Nam’s diagnosis, but it was unaired.
