WWE Tough Enough Report - June 6th, 2011 Posted by Steve Carrier on 06/06/2011 at 06:57 PM
We start off with a look back at what we saw on Season One of Tough Enough. We see some of the highlights and lowlights. We see them show the contrast between Jeremiah and Luke on one side and Andy on the other side. We see the rises of Andy and Martin while Luke stagnated a bit until he returned to the top. Martins run ended due to an ankle injury which gave Luke and Andy a clearer path to the finals. Austin lights the fire under Andy and it helped him get to the finals with Luke.
Will it be the cocky Luke who was on top at the start of the competition or will it be Andy who came on strong at the end who becomes Tough Enough?
We go to Tampa, which is Andys home town. He is home with his family and he talks about doing the regular tasks around the house. Andy talks about missing his daughters first steps as he is playing with her. He talks about his son who is on the way. His wife asks Andy about Luke and Andy says that Luke is not in the same league as him.
Andy does some work outs with his wife and he talks about how she has a background in physical training.
Andy says that there is no comparison between him and Luke. We see Andy pushing over large tires in a yard.
Andy talks about the excitement that he feels about seeing the trainers again. He says goodbye to his family and he takes that long drive from Tampa to Tampa.
We go to Maine, where Luke lives. He is shown partying on the water with some friends. He talks about the rock and roll lifestyle. He talks about being a redneck rock star. He says that he is going to kick ass in the ring and then come back to party with his friends.
Luke says that his workouts have not diminished one bit. He calls his workouts caveman training. He talks about how he has a ring set up to do some work. Luke says that this contract is his. He does not care how big Andy is because he sees him as a little rabbit and the big bad wolf is going to take it.
Luke says that Andy is big and he has some talent. Luke says that he is the perfect storm and he is ready to go.
Luke says that people mistake his passion for arrogance. He says that so many people have sacrificed things for him. He talks about his journey with his mom and then he drives off to Tampa. He says that he just has to be Luke and the contract is his.
We go to commercial.
We are in Tampa and we see the FCW Arena as Andy and Luke go to the ring. They see Bill Demott and Ricky Steamboat in the ring.

He has Andy and Luke do some work in the ring and that allows Steamboat to figure out the way to do things.

Luke knows that he is going to face bigger opponents, but he feels that he will always be the best.
