"Special Episode"

[DeAndre]

Hi all,

DeAndre here. I'm not sure whether this has or has not been discussed previously on this forum but I've heard rumors of a "special episode" being filmed in between qualis and semis. Here's the source.

This is when Rachael Goldstein broke her finger/injured herself (which is also the reason that Jeri d'Aurelio made it into Semis and concurrently into finals). I also believe a few other people have mentioned this but not entirely sure who...?? This is between qualis and semis btw.

Does anyone have details that they'd be willing to share from other sources? I mean, I reckon given Drew was at the top of his game last year they woulda probably featured him in it and so cut out the special, but again, the fact that neither ANWNation nor ninjawarrior on Insta have said anything means it's likely not happening imo. Gimme your thoughts

Yes that's the other one i was talking about but forgot!

It was a female only championship. I believe it ends on the power tower as well and the winner takes home $50,000. I heard that it may air around January when USA vs World would usually air

I mean... I actually see why they did this.

Obviously neither USA vs. or the All Star special could go ahead given COVID and their limited resources, so this is a great way of having a special while still keeping it in line with the main season.
