Cast

Arissa Hill	28[5]	Malden, Massachusetts[6]	Arissa moved to Las Vegas shortly after filming ended. There, she was married to a bodyguard she met in Vegas, but the relationship fell apart when Arissa agreed to appear on Real World/Road Rules Challenge: Battle of the Sexes 2. Arissa made it to the final three women, but ultimately lost to the men. Her appearance on Battle of the Sexes 2 caused some friction among her former cast members, as Alton, Irulan and Steven all claimed on the now defunct Fishbowl.com that she was pretentious.[citation needed]
Frank Roessler	27[7]	Lewisburg, Pennsylvania	Frank moved to Los Angeles after filming ended. He appeared on Battle of the Sexes 2. There, he began a brief relationship with fellow contestant Angela Trimbur (from Road Rules: X-Treme), but he didn't like the way in which their relationship was portrayed.[citation needed] During the show, Frank was accepted to the University of Southern California Marshall Business School to earn a Master's degree in Business Administration, though he never enrolled. Frank is now attending graduate school at UCLA. He appeared on Real World/Road Rules Challenge: The Gauntlet 3 in 2008. He was on the Rookies team, entering his 2nd challenge. He and Jillian (from Road Rules: X-Treme) began a small relationship while on the show. He made it to the end and won $50,000. At the reunion show, Frank said that he and Jillian have moved in together.[citation needed]
Trishelle Cannatella	27[8]	Cut Off, Louisiana	Trishelle moved to Los Angeles and appeared on Real World/Road Rules Challenge: The Gauntlet and Real World/Road Rules Challenge: The Inferno. She began dating Mike "The Miz" Mizanin (from The Real World: Back to New York) during The Gauntlet. She left The Inferno on a sour note after being berated by The Real World: Back to New York's Coral Smith. She moved on to pursue a variety of different projects. Trishelle has appeared numerous times on the internet broadcast of The Real World After Show on the MTV website. Trishelle has posed nude for Playboy magazine and the online Playboy Cyber Club. In 2012, she returned to compete on The Challenge: Battle of the Seasons and on The Challenge: Rivals II in 2013.
Brynn Smith	26[9]	Portland, Oregon	Brynn moved back to Portland after the series ended and began to seriously date Austin, who visited during the filming of the original series.

Alton Williams	27[10]	San Diego, California	Alton dated Irulan for three years and moved to Los Angeles with her. He appeared on The Gauntlet and Kill Reality with Irulan, and shortly after he broke up with her, he appeared on Real World/Road Rules Challenge: The Gauntlet 2 which he won. Alton also appeared on the Real World/Road Rules Challenge: The Inferno III. He moved back to San Diego shortly after breaking up with Irulan. Alton returned to compete on The Challenge: Battle of the Seasons in 2012.
Steven Hill	29[11]	San Marcos, Texas	Steven appeared on Battle of the Sexes 2. He was kicked off after he slapped Shane Landrum (from Road Rules: Campus Crawl) for talking during a silent mission. He was the host of a radio show over on the Fishbowl for a couple of months, during which he claimed that he would never do another Challenge. Having previously studied business at Texas State University, he is now studying psychology. He has remarried to a model named Donna and they are new parents.
