MTV's 'The Challenge: Total Madness' saw double elimination this week. Jenna Compono and Kailah Casillas lost the final challenge to Aneesa Ferreira and Kaycee Clark.

To come this far and lose out on the finals would hurt anyone but the ladies seem to have taken their failures positively. They displayed a solid sportsman spirit when they appreciated their opponents' efforts and admitted to have not performed up to the mark. Jenna thought her strategies during the game was off, whereas Kailah shared she had a lot on her mind as she navigated through the task at hand. "I definitely feel that my mind was not in the right place this entire season and it definitely came into play tonight while I was in elimination," she said and added that there's a lot of "stuff" going on back at home. 

Kailah has been close with Stephen Bear, one of the former contestants, despite having a steady boyfriend, Nelson Thomas. At the beginning of the season, she did try to keep her distance from Bear but he was extremely persuasive. She gave in. They made out despite being committed to partners back home. Although Bear made it clear that he was interested in Kailah no matter the situation back home, she was second-guessing her decision to hang out with Bear most of the time. 

Speaking during her elimination interview, Kailah mentioned how all that went down in the season and equations back home weakened her mental strength and that's why she lost.  Did Kailah imply that it was Bear's fault that she is out of the show? Because these past few weeks they have spent time together and seemed to share a good friendship. When Bear was eliminated, Kailah was visibly upset, which was indicative of his importance in her life. And this was further cemented when he left her with a good luck ring. 

Meanwhile, fans think it was not so much a good luck ring since it took her out the week after Bear left. "Maybe that "good luck ring" Bear gave Kailah wasn't such a good luck charm since they both lost their eliminations," a viewer shared, while another commented: "This is kind of a wack elimination for it to be a double elimination. Well there goes Kailah. It was Bear’s good luck ring AHAHAHAHAH."

"It looks like the good luck ring Kailah received from Bear was actually a bad luck ring," a user tweeted. "Damn Kailah! Bear's ring was good luck, right?" a fan asked.
