Épisode 1 - Are You Tough Enough?

17 octobre 2002

Who will be the next Maven, Nidia, Linda or Jackie? The road to name the next Tough Enough Champions began Thursday night when WWE Superstars Al Snow, Ivory and Bill DeMott, alongside Big, narrowed the field of 75 hopefuls down to 13 cast members. This year, rather than throwing the extravagant casting gala, Tough Enough chose to make the Casting Special more intimate. Judges spent more time evaluating the hopefuls as people. Once they saw what they liked, they selected 25 finalists to go through a torturous several days of training, both in and out of the ring. Some of the 25 didn't make it to the end. The ones who did were there to hear the final 13 names called: Chad - Jamie - Nick - Jill - John - Jonah - Eric - Justin - Kelly Matt - Lisa - Scott - Rebekah

Épisode 2 - This is Not a Game Show

24 octobre 2002

Last week on Tough Enough, the 13 members of the cast were chosen after a long and strenuous tryout process. As this week's show kicked off, Big told the cast members that their challenges were not done yet. He then pointed to a gigantic mountain-side house and told them they had to run to it because it was where they would be living. Even before everybody settled in, the drama of season three began. Apparently, Scott rubbed everybody the wrong way right from the start, especially his roommate Jamie. Before Jamie was even unpacked, Scott asked her if she was a lesbian. Jamie was clearly not excited about the question. Scott's insane comments intensified as the show went on. His most offensive comment to the house members came when he asked if there were a lot of fags in a certain location. In addition to being a nuisance in the house, Scott wasn't all that well like in the ring. Of the 13 cast members, he was the only that could not nail the back bump. This especially upset WWE Superst

Épisode 3 - Jonah Makes Impression

31 octobre 2002

Like last week, Scott managed to annoy everybody in the house on this week's episode of Tough Enough. His biggest target was Jamie. On top of calling her and a few of the guys in the house faggots, he also asked her a very personal question -- ""have you ever used a female condom?"" It was later learned that Jamie's dislike for Scott comes from when he saw her naked. Apparently, Scott just barged into the bathroom without knocking when Jamie was getting into the shower. Scott also managed to get on Eric and Jonah's nerves. The two guys made a bet with him, stating that if he was able to score a girl's phone number while out on the town, they would go to the beach the next day in bikinis. If he failed, however, Scott would have to do the act. Unfortunately for Eric and Jonah, Scott was able to pull two phone numbers. Eric and Jonah tried to talk their way out of the bet, but Scott wasn't budging. Later in the show, Scott tore a ligament in his hand. The injury should keep him out of actio

Épisode 4 - The Meat of Competition

7 novembre 2002

For the first time this season, Al Snow, Bill DeMott, Ivory and Big made a cut, sending the 6' 10"" Chad back home to Wisconsin. According to the trainers, as well as some of the cast members, Chad just wasn't picking up the in-ring work. Plus, his charisma was lacking. As a result, Chad was cut, leaving only 10 Tough Enough contestants. As usual, Scott found himself getting into some trouble this week on Tough Enough. In addition to engaging in an ethnic/religious war with Rebekah, he also had a few too many drinks during the cast's night out. In fact, Scott had so many drinks, that an ambulance was called. Near lifeless, Scott rested in a puddle of his own urine as EMTs attempted to help him. Luckily while at the hospital, Scott received the attention he needed. Embarrassed, he returned to the house the next morning. Rebekah's Christianity was also a large focus of the show this past week. The pretty WWE hopeful was heard several times saying that she does not have the Christian fello

Épisode 5 - Fight for Your Dreams

14 novembre 2002

This week on Tough Enough, both Tommy Dreamer and Rey Mysterio made surprise appearances. Dreamer was the first to show, making an emotional speech right from the start. His words were so moving that many of the cast members were brought to tears. In fact, Dreamer himself was choked up, as well. According to Dreamer, his father is suffering from Parkinson's Disease. Unfortunately, the disease has taken his father's eyesight. An operation restored his eyesight, however, only for two weeks. It was during those two weeks that Tommy Dreamer debuted on WWE television. Having his father witness his debut meant the world to Tommy. Not long after, his father once again lost his sight. Rey Mysterio's appearance was a lot less emotional, but equally informative. Rey talked to the cast about his training and coming up in Mexico City. He told them how important masks were to the people in Mexico. Then, in the ultimate sign of respect, Mysterio removed his mask, showing his face to the cast. Bef

Épisode 6 - Learning to Adapt

21 novembre 2002

The Tough Enough 3 cast grew smaller this week while a few of the competitors expressed their desire to become more than just friends with their housemates. Jamie loves flirting with the guys in the house, especially John. She admits to having a crush on him, but there's just one problem. John has a girlfriend and has no desire to cheat on her. Kelly, meanwhile, began to buddy up to Nick. But Nick was clear that he had no intention of getting at all involved with his housemate. To make things even more interesting, Big said that he would draw two names at random and allow the winners to fly in a guest for the weekend. John and Jonah were selected and each chose to fly in their girlfriends. Scott thought he found a great opportunity to land himself some female action. He offered to purchase the visitation rights from one of the guys so he could see a former high school classmate of his. The fact that Scott hadn't talk to this girl in four years caused the cast to shake their heads and r

Épisode 7 - Jonah Pulls a Fast One

28 novembre 2002

This week's Tough Enough had to be seen to be believed, as the greatest rib in the show's history was pulled off perfectly. Complaining of an injured neck, Jonah was sent to a nearby hospital. Initially, the injury looked bad, which frightened Jonah's cast mates. While at the hospital, however, it was learned that Jonah's injuries were not as severe as first thought and that he would be alright with a little medication. Being the opportunist that he is, Jonah decided that this was the perfect opportunity to play a rib on his cast mates. Wrapped in head bandages and secured by a neck brace, Jonah walked into Trax West and asked everybody to sit around him. He began to cry as he told them that his injury was forcing him out of the competition. As Jonah began to cry, so did all of the other cast mates. This truly was an emotional moment. Before leaving, Jonah asked that everybody say something nice about him. Each member of the cast choked back tears as they spoke kind words about Jonah.

Épisode 8 - A Trip to Iceland

5 décembre 2002

This week's episode of Tough Enough was highlighted by a trip to Iceland, but prior to leaving for the trip, the cast decided it was payback time for Jonah. Upset with rib he pulled on them last week, the cast poured laxative into his protein shake. Unknowing, Jonah swallowed the whole drink down. The cast and trainers then sat back and watched as Jonah was doubled over in pain. Finally, he had reached the boiling point. After getting to the bathroom just in time, he realized that there was no toilet paper. In an attempt to continue the rib, Al Snow unraveled an entire roll of paper and passed Jonah three sheets. Finally when Jonah came out of the bathroom, the cast let him in on the rib. Everybody had a good laugh at his expense. The entire crew then set off for Iceland. While there, they trained outside in the cold. But inside, where it was warm, was where all the action was... at least that was the case for Eric. He found a girl at a local night club. After they swapped spit on the

Kurt has a contest with them to see who could do the most (Kurt wasn't in the contest, see more on the contest in the recap). Chris Nawrocki won. The prize was to have a match with Kurt Angle. Angle quickly takes him down and wins. Then he asks if any other Tough Enough guys want to face Kurt. None raise their hand accept Daniel Puder. Puder goes into the ring and gets some cheers.
