We have some new details on the upcoming return of WWE Tough Enough. The new season will reportedly debut after WrestleMania 31.
WWE is currently in talks to film the show at the WWE Performance Center. There were previously plans to have all the NXT Superstars and developmental talent work on the show. However, per a source, the new season might have a mix of those talents plus whoever answers the casting call, or none of the existing developmental talent for WWE.
As previously reported, the new season will feature a new format for the show. It will include some live and interactive elements. Bill DeMott’s name has been brought up for the show, but he is not yet confirmed to be a trainer. DeMott previously posted on Twitter that he is preparing for the new season. It is unknown if Stone Cold Steve Austin will return as the host of the show.
