Tbh Johnny gets no respect. Yea he’s done 20+ challenges but put it in this perspective. If a professional team won 6 out of 20 seasons, they’d be looked out as a dynasty. But all I hear about Johnny is excuses, etc. I’d argue that winning that many times in a pro sport is easier than what he has to go through. At least in a pro sport they control their own destiny while he’s public enemy #1 more times than not.

His 6 out of 20 wins hold weight there and definitely pin him as a dynasty... But in an all-time competitor conversation, Johnny doesn’t crack top 10 and you can even make a solid argument he doesn’t crack top 15. Those 14 elimination losses themselves is all the evidence you need to back that argument up.

You compete 20 times, you're going to lose that many lol. And how many of those eliminations were luck based comps? for example, the light comp with Devin is a toss up comp for anyone who competes in it.

CT - 5 elimination losses in 14 seasons Derrick - 4 elimination losses in 10 seasons Brad - 4 elimination losses in 10 seasons Darrell - 2 elimination losses in 8 seasons If those players reached 20 seasons, no way they would have 14 elimination losses.
