In the upcoming round of the game show, Randall Rayford, a solar project developer from Houston, Texas, will face off against Michael Cavaliere, a consultant from New York, New York, and Matt Harvey, a healthcare administrator from Providence, Rhode Island. All three contestants have proven their worth in the game show before and it should be another great matchup between the three in the upcoming round.

The game show has made its name a global brand, thanks to its offbeat format and engaging nature, things that are now as iconic as the show itself. Moreover, the game show also boasts a tremendously interesting final round.
