The reality show El Rancho de Destino continues to stir conversations following the expulsion of Bryan "El Vaquero" and Dominican contestant Atuedad, who were at the center of the viral cake incident on social media. Although both were removed from the competition, the buzz hasn't died down, especially after Destino Positivo, the show's creator, addressed the situation with a controversial piece of advice.

During a discussion on set, Destino offered an analysis of the spat from a business angle, noting that Atuedad had managed to turn the controversy to his advantage. "The cake incident went viral and changed his content. He's now promoting everything with a cake and making money," Destino remarked. Conversely, he criticized Bryan for not seizing the opportunity: "He's got the same street cred, but he's stayed locked in. Dude, make some money out of it. I would've walked out with cake on my face looking for business."

These comments soon reached Bryan, who decided to hit back at Destino through his social media platforms. "I earn more than Atuedad without having to make a fool of myself," he posted on his stories, along with a clip of Destino discussing the topic on set.

The Cuban also affirmed that he remains committed to his personal projects and doesn't need to resort to controversies to shine: "I'll show you later why I'm in my corner focused," he added, making it clear that his attention is on his own endeavors.
