When Cory Wharton got to video call his best friend Nelson Thomas two episodes ago on The Challenge season 40, it gave him the "perspective" he needed at a crucial point of the game. But the way in which their conversation was shown onscreen received a lot of backlash from fans due to MTV's portrayal of Nelson's drunk driving accident that led to his leg getting amputated a year later — specifically because the words "drunk driving" were omitted from the segment entirely.
"I don't get to pick what the network puts on there," Cory tells Entertainment Weekly. "I don't have any say in any of that."
