The third time is the charm. WWE certainly hopes that is true, as the wresting promotion is bringing back its reality show Tough Enough on USA Network. McCumber cited the recent multi-year agreement that Universal Television Networks reached to continue broadcasting Raw and SmackDown as a reason to bring back Tough Enough as a way to "capitalize on the enormous audience appeal of sports-entertainment."
WWE had a season of Tough Enough in development last year that was slated to air on the WWE Network, but Dave Meltzer of WrestlingObserver.com, via WrestlingInc.com, reported that filming got pushed back due to budget cuts.
Despite McCumber talking about the audience for the show, Tough Enough has never produced a top-notch WWE star. There have been a few key players over the years like John Morrison, but no one who has been elevated to a main event level.
Finding the right balance between talent in the ring and charisma on the microphone is not easy. WWE has the ability to make stars under the right circumstances, but it needs help. Hopefully, this new season of Tough Enough provides the kind of talent necessary to become a true WWE superstar.
