'Big Brother 18' Spoilers: Who Should Return, Da'Vonne, Zakiyah, Bridgette, Paulie Or Juror 5? [POLL, VIDEO]
The Round Trip ticket may have been a bust, but that won't stop Big Brother from bringing back a houseguest anyway.
Houseguests: Corey Brooks, James Huling, Michelle Meyer, Natalie Negrotti, Nicole Franzel and Victor Arroyo
Jury Members: Da'Vonne Rogers, Zakiyah Everette, Bridgette Dunning and Paulie Calafiore
None of the last five evicted houseguests had the Round Trip ticket to get back into the Big Brother house, and the twist ended without much fanfare last Thursday. However, host Julie Chen announced at the end of the episode that the first five jury members would get to compete to get back into the game on Thursday, Aug. 25.
This means that Da'Vonne, Zakiyah, Bridgette, Paulie and Thursday's evicted houseguest will be competing for one spot to return back to the house. So who do you think would be the best person to return at this point?
Da'Vonne is far removed from the game at this point, so her returning would certainly throw things for a loop. Outside of Michelle, everyone in the house either put her up on the block or voted to evict her, so at the very least, Michelle would probably be safe if Da'Vonne were to win HOH. With a wildcard like Da'Vonne there's no telling what she would do, though she did express concerns about the couples in the house, so she might go against Nicole and Corey and James and Natalie.
Zakiyah would probably impact the game the least out of any returning jurors. She never won any competitions while in the house so she never got to truly get blood on her hands, but she seemed to leave on good terms with Nicole and Corey at least. She would probably team up with them again, and it may be interesting to see her in the game without Paulie.
Bridgette left the house just as she was finding her stride, having helped successfully flip the house against Paulie, Nicole and Corey. However, she doesn't know yet that James and Natalie have split up with Paul and Victor, so there's no telling who she might side with in the end.
Paulie is a huge physical threat who has great potential to win his way back if the competition is in his wheelhouse. It's no secret that getting Paulie out was a huge move, and it might be difficult to get him out again, especially if he just teams up with Nicole and Corey again and by extension, James and Natalie.
***Spoilers through this week's Veto ceremony ahead***
With Paul winning the Power of Veto, he took himself down Monday at the Veto ceremony, which forced Michelle to nominate someone in his place. She chose to nominate Corey, which means either he or Victor will be evicted on Thursday. Right now, the majority is leaning towards evicting Victor, which would give him his second opportunity to win his way back into the house. And if he does make it back, there's no telling who he might target, considering just about everyone will have turned against him at that point. Of course, it's always possible that things will change and Corey will be evicted, but him returning probably wouldn't impact the game as much as if Victor was evicted and returned (again).
Big Brother 18 returns for a new episode Wednesday at 8 p.m. ET/PT on CBS.
