Winners of WWE Tough Enough have finally been revealed on Tuesday. Who were crowned as the new WWE superstars? We have the lowdown of what happened in the finale.
Tuesday night saw the final episode of the reality wrestling competition, WWE Tough Enough. After 10 weeks and 14 finals, it went down to the final four contestants - Josh, ZZ, Sara and Amanda. Only two were crowned winners of the sixth season of "Tough Enough" - one male and one female - and the lucky winners were Josh and Sara Lee.
The two bested hundreds, even thousands, of others who have auditioned for the reality show. Josh and Sara Lee each won a one-year, $250,000 WWE contract.
The final challenge for the finalists was the hardest. They were given a real taste of the WWE experience by fighting Cesaro and Alicia Fox, "to see if they could last a few minutes in a real match," Bleacher Report noted. All four lost to their opponents.
However, in the end Josh and Sara Lee had the most votes to be the WWE Tough Enough winners.
Josh Bredl from Thornton, Colorado was a former Green Bay Packers defensive end, The Wrap noted. According to the new WWE superstar, the toughest part of his transition from the NFL to the WWE was "getting lean".
"I was 310 pounds and I knew I needed to lose weight," Bredl told The Wrap.
"I'm now 271, so that was crucial to me...I started losing the weight and I flourished. I got my flow again."
As for his co-winner, Sara Lee, she didn't let haters get her down but used the hate to motivate and fuel her.
"I didn't let it get to me. You just have to put it aside and it refuels you more and more," she said.
