* Season 18 competitor Raquel Pennington would lose in the semi finals of TUF and go on to be a long time staple in the rankings of the women's bantamweight division. She would fight champion Amanda Nunes in 2018, losing it in a one sided beating, and continue to be a staple of the division. A win streak of 5 wins, combined with Amanda Nunes retiring in 2023 would open up the opportunity for Pennington to fight for the vacant belt in 2024 against contender Mayra Buena Silva, and win a decision and also the belt.

* Season 18 winner Julianna Peña was the first woman to win a season of TUF and would go on to have a delayed career due to injuries and a hiatus from pregnancy. She would have a middling return with 2 wins and 1 loss before being given a title shot against Amanda Nunes. In one of the biggest upsets in the UFC, Peña beat Nunes by second round submission to become the woman's bantamweight champion. She lost the belt in the rematch in a brutal one sided beatdown.

* Season 24 has the distinction of producing two champions. Competitor Brandon Moreno, eliminated in the ''very first fight'' of the season against competitor Alexandre Pantoja, would enjoy a 3-2 record in the promotion before being released when the UFC started downsizing the Men's Flyweight division, with his final fight being against Pantoja again. He was re-signed a year later, starting an unbeaten streak which culminated in a Flyweight championship victory at UFC 263. After a series of fights with Deivison Figueiredo where he would lose, then win the title back, he would fight Pantoja for a 3rd time at UFC 290, and once again lose a close fight with him, making Pantoja the Flyweight champion.

** As above, Sonnen and Silva were the first coaches to fully go at it on the show (Shamrock and Ortiz came close, as well as Ortiz and Liddell) in ''TUF Brazil 3'', which resulted in a full on dogpile brawl, in which one of Silva's assistant coaches sucker punched Sonnen and ripped off his jersey. Dana immediately fired him and warned Sonnen and Silva that if they wanted to fight for free, he'd be happy to not pay them.
