The cast of THE CHALLENGE: USA. Season 2 kicks off with a two-part premiere

Bergmann, 39, saw the expansion to CBS and Paramount+, whereThe Challenge: All StarsandThe Challenge: World Championship, has aired, as a positive.

“To buildThe Challengebrand on CBS and Paramount+, we will be the literal global threat for competition shows,” he continued. “And the fact that we were the ones that kind of originated it and therefore we’ve got the biggest brand, it’s almost like we are still the sharks. It’s just now, we’re the sharks in a big ocean. I think it’s pretty darn cool.”
