The next season of The Challenge All Stars should be Real World vs Road Rules and I won't hear otherwise! With All Stars Rivals being such a hit, and with Mark Long himself tweeting about it, my longtime desire for All Stars to do a Real World vs Road Rules team season resurfaced in a big way. It was the theme that started it all, and the options for casting are vast (and realistic)!

Today, I'm breaking down why I want RW vs RR so bad as the next All Stars theme, what the best case format would look like, and then doing not one, not two, not three, but FOUR different fantasy casts of RW vs RR teams that are all highly realistic to make happen.
