  • New Details On The Format & Plans For The New WWE Tough Enough

    The format of the returning WWE Tough Enough reality show is going to be completely revamped compared to past seasons.

    There will be training and in-house footage shot during the week, which will air on the Tuesday show. So when you watch an episode, the training and drama in the house we see will be from the previous week, very similar to The Ultimate Fighter season that they tried to do semi-live, as well as the UFC Primetime and “Embedded” specials which they try to keep up-to-date.

    The television show will air each Tuesday, with footage shot during the week as well as a live show in front of a studio audience.

    While Chris Jericho is scheduled to be the host of the show, it’s said that he will have somewhat of a “Ryan Seacrest role,” and won’t be hosting the show in the style that WWE had “Stone Cold” Steve Austin do several years ago.

    As far as the rest of the cast, Hulk Hogan, Paige and Daniel Bryan will serve as panelists, mentors and judges, while Booker T, Billy Gunn and Lita will serve as the actual trainers for the contestants. Each week on the show there will be a judges vote and an audience vote to decide who goes home.

    WWE has reportedly gone out of their way to recruit certain people to be cast members on the show, including Tessa Blanchard, daughter of WWE Hall Of Famer Tully Blanchard. It’s also said that they badly wanted Moose on the show.

    Apparently WWE is telling people that they are recruiting to be on the program that they will be guaranteed a spot on the show, however the actual winner of the season will not be pre-determined and will be completely legitimate based on the fan voting.

  • Naomi’s Heel Turn Came As Result Of AJ Lee Retiring From WWE

    It turns out there was a legitimate reason for Naomi turning heel at this past Monday’s edition of WWE RAW.

    Naomi, who attacked Paige after Paige won the number one Divas contender battle royal at the RAW show taped in London, England on Monday afternoon, was actually filling the role that was originally set up for AJ Lee.

    Prior to announcing her retirement, AJ Lee was scheduled to turn heel on Paige in the very near future on WWE television.

    It’s worth noting that despite the coincidental circumstance, Naomi was actually scheduled to turn heel at one point in the WWE storylines as well. When Jimmy Uso and The Miz were feuding a few weeks back, Naomi was originally scheduled to turn heel on her real-life husband Uso, and align herself with The Miz and Damien Mizdow act. For whatever reason, however, WWE ultimately nixed those plans.
