Like I have done for the past few seasons, we’re going to take a look at the prior performances of the Battle of the Bloodlines cast so you’ll know who to look out for and who should be taking the early flight home. This list only focuses on the alumni, so if you’re looking for info on the bloodlines, you’ll need to watch the show.
