Tonight’s episode of The Challenge will see a showdown between MAFS’ Ryan Gallagher and Konrad Bien-Stephen from The Bachelor franchise.
A clip shows the two reality stars going head to head, despite the fact that no drama between the pair has been screened in previous episodes of The Challenge.
A preview clip that was released to news.com.au shows Ryan calling Konrad a “grub”.
Konrad angrily responds, “You look like a dopey idiot and I can’t wait to knock you out of the game.”
“You’ve never been in a fight in your life,” Ryan retorted before adding, “You act like you’re tough but you’re not. You’re not tough.”
“I’m not trying to be tough … Hey, you’re blowing kisses at me, telling me I’m wearing girl clothes, telling me you’ve been in fights where you’ve lost all your knuckles,” Konrad snapped back.
The camera then pans to a producer led interview with Ryan. “Konrad and the Bachie crew … We have nothing in common. I’m not afraid to ruffle a few feathers, and I bloody enjoy doing it. At the end of the day it’s a game,” he tells the camera.

Konrad aggresively follows Ryan while asking him “What would you do after that?” and referencing a punch to the face.
“Nothing mate, but what would you do, punch me in the face? Because you’re a tough c***?” Ryan responded. “I’d just laugh in your face”.
Konrad then tells the camera in a producer-led interview, “Ryan’s rubbed a few people up the wrong way and has a huge target on his head. It feels like right now Ryan is starting little spot fires, I’d rather him just not be here.”
The confrontation comes just a week after Brittany Hockley revealed that Ryan was her “most disliked” co-star on The Challenge.
“There was one person, one that I clashed with… I wanna start by saying it’s very hard to upset me or make me dislike someone. I, I’m a lover. I love everyone,” she revealed on The Kyle and Jackie 0 Show where she is currently filling in as a temporary host.
She added, “There’s one person that was just so rude to me who was that? And I dunno if they’ll play it. It was Ryan from Married at First Sight,” she said.
“He was so mean to me,” Brittany added. “Just constantly having to go at me, yelling at me, talking over me, telling me I’m an idiot, calling me drunk.”
“You could ask any member of that whole show…They all, they all felt the pain,” she said. “He just wasn’t nice to me.”
