The USA Network is reportedly not impressed with the performance of WWE Tough Enough in terms of the ratings the show is getting and the overall format of the show.

According to one USA Network rep, the combination of taped and live isn’t working and doesn’t give the judges enough time to make a fair decision. It also gives the fans watching only given a few minutes to vote as opposed to a day or week.
The Network also feels that Steve Austin was a dynamic presence with charisma that carried the previous season of Tough Enough compared to Chris Jericho, who is more of a game show host. It should be noted that the network is blaming the format because it feels more like a game show than a reality show.
