According to sources, a recent clip that was released online for Tough Enough as a digital extra was to try and get contestant ZZ eliminated from the competition. The clip features coach Billy Gunn critiquing the contestants and going off on ZZ in particular on his in-ring performance.
Sources believe WWE had tried to set things up so ZZ would be eliminated last week, but fans were not manipulated into voting him off. As a result, ZZ stayed on another week, and it seems the clip is part of the latest effort for ZZ to be eliminated from the competition. In addition, WWE officials see Josh as the favorite to win, and Josh is seen has been seen as the favorite by Vince McMahon since the new season started.
