Bartender Nick and hairstylist Vicki were among the most unlikable and combative racers in season 17. Nick, in particular, painted himself as a true villain by berating his girlfriend Vicki repeatedly when she failed to keep up with his endurance. Worse yet, Vicki's asthma gave her a genuine reason to fall behind. Yet Nick harassed them during every leg with a fevered temper and cruel attitude while finishing in the bottom half of their first six races. His terrible temperament made him a real villain, and poor Vicki was along for the ride.
While Scott did his best to remain pleasant at best and neutral at worst, his partner Brooke is one of the most villainous racers in series history. Brooke faced severe online ire over the aggressive, in-your-face approach to riling herself up before each challenge. The snarky attitude of the Director of Business Development for a U.S. law firm radiates an air of stuck-up superiority, which leads to constant bickering with her estranged partner, Scott. Although they won the season, Brooke threw a tantrum during the Ladle Making Roadblock.
Cocky, cunning, and vindictive, Joe and Bill (aka Team Guido) still reign as the original villains introduced during the inaugural season of the series. However, after returning in season 11, they showed signs of evolving for the better. Following a monumental blowup in a Tunisian airport, Joe and Bill continued to be a cutthroat team loathed by the other racers. In their All-Stars appearance, they feuded multiple times with Eric and Danielle before being eliminated in Poland in 6th place.
While Zach redeemed himself, Flo epitomized quarrelsome behavior on The Amazing Race with her consistent poor attitude, naysaying, and negative nastiness. 23-year-old Flo spent much of her time screaming at Zach for no good reason. In the race's second half, she began flirting with Drew with little regard for his twin brother, Derek. Flo became the first woman to win the race, making her an enviable villain for ages.
