‘The Challenge All Stars: Rivals’: Dario Medrano responds to Devin’s claims he could ‘beat the living s–t out of his mouth’
Dario Medrano made a memorable return to The Challenge franchise this year in The Challenge All Stars: Rivals. Eight years after he competed on Dirty 30, the 32-year-old was cast to compete alongside his ex-girlfriend, Ashley Kelsey, whom he hadn't spoken to in six years.
"I didn't think I was going to be able to return to The Challenge," he tells Gold Derby (watch the interview above). "I wasn't thrilled with how I left off a few years ago. As the years go on, you start to think you'll never get an opportunity again. The stars aligned and here we are." He elaborates, "My overall effort on the last season or two — my head wasn't in it. There wasn't a lot of joy around filming and being in the house. When I went into this season, I was there. I was present. I was vested. I really wanted to make an impact and win.
