Rob Rausch is not here for the doubters. After winning The Traitors season 4 as the sole champion and taking home a cool $220,800, the Love Island USA alum found himself in an unexpected feud with Survivor host Jeff Probst. Probst publicly said that Rausch’s casual interest in the show wouldn’t be enough to land him a spot on Survivor, but Rausch wasn’t about to let that slide. He fired back, reminding everyone that he just won one of the most cutthroat competition shows on TV.
But the win came with a cost. Rausch opened up about how emotionally draining the game was, especially when it required betraying allies like Eric Nam and Maura Higgins. To show his appreciation for Maura, he used part of his winnings to buy her a Birkin bag. We love a generous king. And if that wasn’t enough, Rausch is already looking ahead, predicting that JaNa Craig will win the next season of The Traitors.
So what do you think? Should Survivor give Rob Rausch a shot, or should he stick to dominating Traitors? Sound off in the comments and let us know if you’d tune in to see him take on Probst’s challenge.
