WWE Tough Enough/YMMV: Difference between revisions

{{work}}

* [[Big Lipped Alligator Moment]]: Some of the weekly challenges really have absolutely nothing to do with being a WWE superstar. Highlights include cheerleading, waiting on tables wearing rollerskates, getting chased by attack dogs and playing basketball against a team of midgets.

** [[Rule of Funny]]: They are, however, very, very entertaining and some, such as the attack dog and obstacle course, are used to help determine the physical condition of the contestants. Others, such as the waiting tables and midget basketball, are done simply for the coaches entertainment as the contestants tend to fail ''miserably'' and hilariously at them.

* [[Fan Nickname]]: ''Diva Dirt'' liked to give Rima a new nickname every week. They included "Miss Ghetto USA" and "Miss Late USA"

* [[Hilarious in Hindsight]]: Stone Cold and Bill DeMott working together; Austin famously ripped apart DeMott's Hugh Morris moniker during his heel run in 2001, which was also the first time he did the WHAT? phrase.

** Not to mention Austin's feud with Booker T, which involved the infamous supermarket brawl.

* [[Narm]]/TastesLikeDiabetes: Ariane's crocodile tears saying she'd given up her job and home to be on the show. Stone Cold had a similar reaction to the fans'.

* [[Tear Jerker]]: Definitely Martin's elimination. He came in on crutches saying that the doctors wouldn't allow him to continue. He would have gone through the show with a fractured ankle if the doctors had let him. Stone Cold gave him the distinction of hanging his own belt up, rather than taking it from him.

* [[The Scrappy]]: Rima, Mickael and Luke are notable.

** Christina as well due to perceived coddling from the part of the trainers and preferential treatment from trainers despite not doing all that well in anything (Ivelisse being told to "suck it up" and tough it out through a sprained knee while Christina's sprained ankle was treated as a big deal is probably the biggest example). Her timing always seemed off which would often result in botched moves that tended to get blamed on who she was with (usually AJ) instead of her and in at least one instance (Ivelisse) actively led to injuring someone else which later caused that person to be eliminated while Christina herself suffered no backlash.

*** Except Christina was punished for the injury and sent to the bottom three that week. Ivelisse had also been given preferential treatment before her injury (i.e. Martin helping her carry a bag during the obstacle course). Christina upped her game for the next two weeks and became a lot more competent in the competition, being the only one to show actual personality during the skills challenge. And the week of her injury she didn't step up and so was eliminated. Bill DeMott showed blatant favouritism amongst all the contestants, which is why he blamed AJ.
