Triple H recently spoke with USA Today’s Brian Truitt about the return of Tough Enough. Here are the highlights…
On taking the show to the next level: “Our athletes and performers make what we do look very easy because they’re very, very good at it. People lose perspective of how difficult it is. You ostensibly have the opportunity to see an icon 20 years from now at WrestleMania where you can say, ‘I remember seeing the day that they walked into the Performance Center and ran drills and threw up in the garbage can.’”
On the importance of charisma: “It’s the hardest thing to teach. It’s that guy who walks in the door and everybody stops and says, ‘Who’s that?’ It’s the girl who walks in and doesn’t have to be the hottest chick, but there’s something about her that you’re just like, ‘Wow, look at her.’ ”
