10 Reasons Why Tough Enough Will Create A Main-Event WWE Star
8. Chris Jericho, Super-DUPER-star
There's never been a better time to be Chris Jericho. He's an ex-Unified World Championship holding, podcast-hosting, stars-dancing, movie-acting and rock band lead-singing mega star. Thus, the winner of Tough Enough is going to get one helluva rub from being next to him. Jericho's also a former Hart trainee and one of the most skilled grapplers of his generation. While some people were very seriously wanting Steve Austin to be the host, it's arguable that for the purposes of both the trainees level of interest in having a "contemporary" legend providing advice and for WWE's need to have a performer that can garner them relevant (and not timeless) mainstream coverage, Jericho is the best host insofar as "making" a new star from the show.
