It can never be called a world championship

These Legends have been in over 100 challenges,

elimination king.
They started using the word Legend to refer to me.

I won The UK Challenge, but now I'm here.
I need another win, and it is so important
how well we do in this qualifier.
Maybe we're gonna have to pick our partners.

Yeah! Let's go!
Round two! Let's get it!

Go, Keeks!
You got this, Kiki.
♪ ♪
Claudia, she's a lioness.
She's a mother, you know?
And so I believe she can do great against Kiki.
Of course, I want my girl to go over there and do her best.
[cheers and applause]
Go with it, Keeks. Go with it.
- That's it, Keeks. - Oh, wow.
What a strategy. Wow.
[air horn blares] - Let's go!
Come on, let's go. This is it.
- Wow. - That was a good move.
Never seen that one before.
She used her foot and turned it into, like, a leg exercise.
I'm the one who made Pole Wrestle famous,
and I'm even seeing moves that I have never seen before.
Who does the splits in the middle of a Pole Wrestle?
That would be Kiki, my new fan favorite.
I don't know what to say.
The score is 2 to nothing, Kiki.
First one to three wins tonight's elimination round.
Claudia, you gotta win this one to stay in the game.
[air horn blares]
[all shouting indistinctly]
I grew up with an older brother
that loved WWE wrestling,
so I'm gonna try and dig back into that
and take Claudia out.
♪ ♪
Pull it out, Keeks!
[air horn blares]
[cheers and applause]
Yes, Keeks.
Kiki, you thought all these people underestimated you.
I guarantee they're looking at you different now.
You are a [indistinct] beast, Kiki.
If I gotta be partnered with anybody, I want her.
Yes! [laughter]
- Good job, ladies. - Good job.
Great battle, great battle.
That was entirely an out-of-body experience.
I don't even feel like that was me in the arena just now.
First elimination win on my own.
Team Australia, I hope that proves to the other countries,
don't come for us again because it might be you next.
Great battle. Wow.
Wow.
Bravo, Kiki. Bravo.
[cheers and applause]
Both of you did your countries proud.
Yeah, that was tough. Yeah.
Unfortunately, there's gotta be a loser in this situation.
- Yeah. - And--
And this is me. [laughs]
Claudia--Claudia--
I know.
Argentina still loves you.
Yeah, I know.
We love you, Claudia.
Here are my Argentines to represent us.
They are the beasts.
I were the lion in Argentina, but she's the lion
in the World Championship.
Congrats.
Good luck for everybody.
[applause]
Good luck, guys.
I feel very proud of me to be here
in the World Championship.
My family and my kids is gonna be very proud of me.
Rodri, Benda, and Jujuy...
Whoo!
Ciao.
It's really hard to see an Argentinian go home.
It kind of, like, weakens a little bit Argentina's team.
So we're gonna have to struggle and fight for that.
- Kiki? - Yes?
Absolute savage.
Go ahead and rejoin the group.
You're still in the game. - Thank you.
[cheers and applause]
The thing that I learnt tonight
was that we have no idea what to expect in this game.
And I feel like that was a stupid, silly mistake.
I want us Aussies to stick together.
I want us four to be really strong in this game.
All right, now it's gonna get interesting.
On this side of the stage, we have the Legends of the game.
I think it's time we get them involved.
The first-ever Challenge World Championship
is going to be played in pairs.
And we're picking them tonight.
Oh!
[all exclaiming]
The feeling of being a fan and playing with them
is just a real weird one at the moment
'cause it's like, you're a bit starstruck.
This is gonna be a tough one.
Global MVPs, I told you all how you do in the qualifier
would have a significant impact on your game, and I meant it.
You are going to pick these teams
in the order in which you finished that qualifier.
So it can make or break your entire $500,000 season
right here.
I'm very fortunate that I get to pick
whoever out of the female Legends that I want.
But I'm sort of stressing and sweating bullets at the minute
because it's so important to pick the right person.
♪ ♪
I know that Kaz and Zara finished ahead of me,
but I'm just like, please don't be
Wes and Jordan, please, because those are literally
my first two options.
You ready to get this party started?

[cheers and applause]
We all know why we're here.
We're all here to rip one bag of money
out of each other's hands by any means necessary.
We're about to start playing this game,

This Challenge, it's a war.
You never know who's stirring the pot in this place.
Tori is always gonna pick Jordan,
so I need to take away her number one
so I can be number one.
You literally hate me.
Like, I wish you never picked me as a partner.
You could have had a way easier game if you didn't.
We're letting certain people run the house,
so I hope you start playing smarter.
I'm just worried about KellyAnne
lighting a match and then blowing this whole house up.
