Notable events
Expansion and realignment
With several new moderator panelists, the main moderator panelists and villains were realigned into eight divisions: two villains in each division in the Men's Conference with three moderators in each division in the Women's Conference and four divisions in each conference. In creating the new divisions, the producers and directors tried to maintain the historical rivalries from the old alignment, while at the same time attempting to organize the moderators geographically. Legally, two pink team moderators (Tracia Ward and Holly Everman) and two purple team moderators (Ava Zinn and Kathi Jameson) were required to be in different divisions as part of any realignment proposals; this was because Tracia Ward and Ava Zinn share the Fort Wayne market and Holly Everman and Karly Jameson share the Indianapolis market.[5]
The major changes are: [6]
- The Pink, Purple, Red, and Blue teams were split into two divisions: East and West.
- Thia Tola and Kendra Ray swapped divisions, with Tola becoming the fourth female moving from the pink to purple team and Ray becoming the first (with the exception of Perri Johnson and Hillary Matthewson) transwoman moving from the purple to pink team.
- New Red Team moderators Phil Allen and Kye Sanchez were placed into the newly formed Red Team East.
- New Blue team moderators Tavon Savage and Bill Delagatto were placed into the newly formed Blue Team West.
- Holly & Perri, new moderators Marti McDaniel and Breeanna Sorensen were placed into the newly formed Pink Team East.
- Tracia & Hillary, the reassigned Kendra Ray, and new duo moderator Ann & Kylie were placed into the newly formed Pink Team West.
- Clark Jones and Luka Runecraft remained on the Red Team and placed into the newly formed Red Team West.
- Archibald Coolranch and Glenn Swaringen remained on the Blue Team and placed into the newly formed Blue Team East.
- Ava & Kymberly, Rachael Passalt, and the reassigned Tola were placed into the newly formed Purple Team West.
- Kathi & Karly, Lanise & Danni, and new moderator Donna Doogan were placed into the newly formed Purple Team East.
this season is largely intended to preserve the pre-expansion setups, keeping traditional rivals in the same division. Plans are in the works add more moderators in the future
