CT is clearly the alpha male of the "The Challenge: Rivals" house--the guys are intimidated by his hot temper (and biceps) and the girls all want to jump his bones. Since no one ever likes the top dog, it's only a matter of time before the players band together and start strategizing ways to break him down (or, in the case of the ladies, break into his pants).
Check out this bonus clip of the premiere, where Robin, Jenn and Camila take a dip in the pool, then decide to take their chlorine-soaked selves into CT's room. Waking a sleeping beast isn't typically a good idea, but this isn't an attempt to manipulate him out of his power position--they're just bored.
