The Challenge All Stars: Rivals' Beth Stolarczyk opens up about her elimination and more

In her interview, Beth Stolarczyk stated that even after her elimination, she has the "competition bug" in herself. Despite the odds against her, she said she would never give up. The female cast member said she had planned to "keep going" and hoped there would be a day when she would be in the final.

"I'm just going to keep trying and hoping that someday I'm going to get to run that final. Maybe they'll team me up with a powerhouse or maybe it'll be like true old-school people, and I will make it to the end. I see it. It's on my vision board. I can smell it. I can taste it. It's there," she shared.

Fans must remember how Beth quit during the All Stars Season 3. When asked about that, she stated she was "super upset" that MJ was working with Jonna. She recalled how he suggested to Jonna how to beat her in the game. Mentioning the daily challenge where she decided to quit, she referred to that as "just stupid."

The The Challenge All Stars: Rivals' female cast member shared more:

"So I blew up and I was like, well, "Forget it. I'm out. You guys are cheaters. If the only way you can beat me is to cheat, then take it. I'm not a cheater. You want to compete against me and not cheat, I'm there." I can't stand cheaters, so that's what happened."

Further in her interview, Beth star recalled her recent elimination from The Challenge All Stars: Rivals. Beth stated that she fears heights, and many participants felt the same.

However, she mentioned that she did not trust Jonna. She thought of letting Jonna solve the "math problem," which was going for the "keys" in the task. She also mentioned not feeling "trust" in her partner during the game and how it affected her performance in the task.

Later on, she discussed The Challenge 40 and All Stars Season 6.
