– Yesterday was media day at the WWE Tough Enough house with newspapers, magazines and other media outlets present. IGN’s Matt Fowler noted on Twitter that yoga was being used in the Tough Enough warm up sessions, something that’s probably came from Trish Stratus.
– Here’s what we know about the cast of Tough Enough so far. WWE’s original press release announcing Tough Enough’s return stated that there would be 12 competitors on the show but new commercials on the USA Network say that there will be 14. Here are 7 of those:
* Matt Cross – known on the independents as M-Dogg 20 and has worked for years on the independents for Ring of Honor and others. Debuted in 2001 and worked a tag team match against Vance Archer and Curt Hawkins on a 2010 episode of WWE Superstars.
* Christina Crawford – former FCW Diva and sister to RAW Diva Alicia Fox.
* Bobby Robinson – known on the Maine independent scene as Golden Boy. Word is that he can be seen in the Tough Enough commercial saying he will do whatever it takes to get the contract.
* Rima Fakih – Current Miss USA and WWE fan who has hosted RAW.
* Erik Watts – a California independent wrestler with the nickname Big Nasty.
* Juliet The Huntress – 22 year old independent wrestler of Puerto Rican descent based out of Chicago, debuted in 2005.
* Ryan Howe – known as “The Rock ‘n Rebel” Diamond Steel. Apparently he is the blonde in the Tough Enough commercial where Steve Austin says he doesn’t like his hair.
