The latest season of WWE's 'Tough Enough' show is over. The winners were revealed to be Josh and Sara Lee, and each will receive a $250,000 contract with the company. Previous winners of the show haven't exactly went on to experience the most success in the promotion, and that's something legendary announcer Jim Ross has picked up on over the years. Since the show's run came to a close, Ross has been outspoken about everything that's wrong with the concept. On his podcast, the ex-commentator even outright said that he wasn't interested in Tough Enough at all. A quick scan of the diminishing ratings for each episode tells the real story, WWE didn't do a great job in getting viewers to connect with the men and women they were seeing onscreen. For Jim Ross, this was a major problem. Throughout the actual series, the man was supportive and positive that WWE could make it worthwhile come the end. Now that it's over, he doesn't feel the company achieved that. According to a lot of fans online, they agree with Ross, and feel it's time WWE did away with a tired concept.
