He won the reality show three times, namely in Real World/Road Rules Challenge: The Duel (2006), The Challenge: Rivals II (2013), and The Challenge: All Stars 3 (2022).
Speaking with TV Insider, Bergmann explained why he joined House of Villains Season 2, noting that he is already in the "weaning-off period" from his time in The Challenge:
"You know, I’m in the weaning-off period of kind of retiring from 'The Challenge,' but I’ve still got a television and game addiction, and so I feel like 'House of Villains' is a nice way to wean off a little bit, right? Like, if I was trying to stop drinking so much espresso, take a few less shots every day until eventually I was done. And 'House of Villains' is shorter and easier than 'The Challenge,' so it felt like scratching a lot of the itch that I still have without it being too large of an obligation."
Teresa Giudice

The Real Housewives of New Jersey star Teresa Giudice is ready to risk it all in House of Villains Season 2.
Giudice spoke to People about her strategy in the competition, noting that she wanted to threaten her fellow castmates:

Giudice already has beef with one of her fellow contestants, namely I Love New York star Tiffany Pollard.

In an interview with Parade, Hatch teased that "there were big surprises" when he went up against some of his fellow contestants in Season 2:
"There were big surprises on a couple of different levels for me. Individually and personally, there were some surprises about who some people really were in person. On another level, I was blown away by how generally un-self-aware we are as humans, and I'm not."
