Over the course of 15 seasons, we've have a lot of teams on the amazing race. Some teams had their hearts broken out. Some teams fought, then cried. However at the end some accomplished the goal, which was to win. Today, we have 12 teams that completed the challenge of winning, to compete and ultimately become the Grand Champions. These 12 teams will have to face the hardest season to date, with various twists and turns. Will any of them have what it takes? We will see! The twelve teams are..."
Micky & Abe, winners of season 1!
Abe: "Me and Micky are the original winners of the race and are the most dominate winners in history."
Micky: "We won the first time but, we know we didn't win originally for nothing. We are here for a reason and it's time for us to prove it. We are going to win."
Abe: "I also won season 9 but winning twice isn't enough for me. I want to win three times."
Micky: "I know we can do it and prove we are the best team of all time."
Asia & Jojo, the winners of season 12!
Asia: "Jojo and I were never considered the favorites."
Jojo: "We fought with other teams, made enemies, made people cry, annoyed them and psych them out to win the race."
Asia: "I know what it takes to win and I will not hesitate to say what I want to say. I will do whatever it takes and don't care what others think."
Jojo: "We are here to be the grand champions. So watch out!"
Briana & Amy, the winners of season 5!
Briana: "Amy and I got randomly paired up during season 4 and unlike other teams, we had no idea who we really were when racing."
Amy: "Despite this we defied the odds by winning season 5. It was an amazing experience."
Briana: "Our mojo is to enjoy ourselves because what are you doing here if you are not having fun."
Amy: "Sometimes that fire has to come out and we will burn the competition if that's what it takes to win so grab your water!"
Clara & Nemo, the winners of season 10!
Clara: "Nemo and I are quite different. I am loud and bossy. Are differing personalities helped us win and I could not be more happy about that."
Nemo: "The skills it takes to win are grit and not giving up and we have both of those things."
Clara: "I won Haiti, and I am here to prove why I did."
Nemo: "Wrong season Clara, but hey lets win it."
Mega & Cloud, the winners of season 4!
Cloud: "Our first season was good with establishing a bond and we ended up winning but the last 3 seasons have honestly been a bit of disappointments with us as a team."
Mega: "We won the first time using great teamwork but the past three seasons we went out pretty early. We both have done well with other teams so it's about bringing that back."
Cloud: "We went from last to 1st in one leg so we know how to make comebacks. I am one of only three people to win twice and it's time for people to know why"
Mega: "We are gonna hurt ourselves hard and put ourselves in pain to win so watch out."
Cloud: "That doesn't sound quite right but you get the picture right, lol."
War & Coolguy, the winners of season 8!
Coolguy: "We are the first team to win after leg 11 was a non elimination."
War: "We have raced many times and done well every time and we are the best."

War: "Goodbye we will see you again when we get our money."
Halcy & Ashley, the winners of season 14!
Ashey: "Halcy and I are two of the strongest racers. We have more final legs combined than any other team, and we know we are the threats."
Halcy: "Ashley is a little more under the radar, I am much more the leader and it helped us."
Ashley: "This race has been so addicting and I would love to win again."
Halcy: "We got this, woo!"
Jenn & Etollie, winners of season 6!
Jenn: "We made it to final 5 last time and won our first season with a very dominant performance."
Etollie: "The goal is for me to help Jenn control her emotions because when not distracted we dominate those challenges easily."
Jenn: "I will fight with whoever I want because I am the best."
Etollie: "Lets prove that we can do this."
Alex & Wilted, the winners of season 7!
Wilted: "Alex and I are not best friends. We are two rivals who worked together to win the hardest season with more leg wins then any other team."
Alex: "Last season really didn't go well for us but why do you think we won the first time?"
Wilted: "This season, drama might not be avoidable but we know we can do both."
Alex: "We got this, hey it's not about getting along it's about doing the challenges and getting to the locations and we are good at that!"
Wilted: "You're right!
Iconic & Brittnee, the winners of season 15!
Iconic: "Winning the race was amazing, and we really were dominant and did our own thing."
Brittnee: "It took a lot of tries but I did it and we are now where to show why we can do it."

White: "We won because we are the best, plain and simple."
Candy: "White is a very impulsive racer, I am a bit calmer but I know what it takes to win."

Candy: "Soccer where are you because we made the cut and not you so have fun."
White: "Lets win this!"
Getsome & Sarah, the winners of season 13!

Sarah: "The pot has been against us for a while and we want to win."
Getsome: "We have had rough patches but we put up a good match and I think the other teams know this."
Sarah: "It's gonna be a big fight but we are here to prove we got this!"
Phil: "Welcome back everyone! You are all here because you all have one thing in common. You are all champions! You all say you're the best winners? Well it's time to prove it. This is the grand championship! Now what's at stake? The honor of being the first physical team to win twice! The title of grand champions! And, get ready for it, 4 million dollars! The biggest cash prize in race history! Now because you're returning champions, you may think you know how this race will go. Well, think again because, starting now, this race will be very different. You must be ready for anything at all times. The action begins as soon as I say go. Standing between you and your first clue is a ten story rappel off this bridge. Once you've read your clue, you can get behind the wheel of an all new Ford Escape and be on your way. Oh, and be quick because the last team to complete the rappel will receive a penalty called a Hazard, a task that only your team has to complete at some point in this leg. And the team who wins this leg will receive an advantage on the next leg. What it is, you'll find out. Alright, enough talk, let's get the grand championship started. The world is waiting for you. Goodluck! Travel safe! GO!"
