Opening Segment
We get told again that John Cena will be appearing on tonight’s episode of Tough Enough. They tease he will have something in store for the competitors.
Chris Jericho and Renee Young welcome us to the show with the final six competitors on stage.
Daniel Bryan says he likes Amanda being embraced by the competitors. Paige says Josh has been shining. Miz says GiGi needs to find a way to connect.
Bryan says Tanner needs to show more. Paige says Sara needs to show how that he can step up. Miz reminds us that ZZ is out of shape but entertaining.
Back in the barracks, the competitors are surprised by Chris Jericho and pizzas. Jericho asks Amanda and GiGi about their near-eliminations.
GiGi brings up ZZ, which he takes offense to.
Jericho talks about people having the “It Factor.” He talks about stories of his career and asks some of the competitors what their favorite match was. Thankfully no one said one as outlandish as Cameron.
Jericho says wrestling is about telling stories. He says everyone needs to know ring psychology, which is like story-telling. He then breaks out some alcohol and it affected some more than others (Tanner).
We are then welcomed to the next challenge in the Performance Center. The competitors have to do some of their story-telling in the match.
We see the competitors locking up but Sara was seemingly struggling.
The competitors have to pair up and get one hour to create a match. ZZ and Josh, Amanda and Sara, and GiGi and Tanner team up. The coaches came around and helped out some of the competitors putting this together.
Billy Gunn welcomes in a live audience, which is the NXT Superstars and Divas.
Rob’s Note: Seeing them finally wrestle a match will show what they’ve been doing for two months behind the scenes. Let’s see who steps up.
