The Miz Replaces Hulk Hogan As WWE Tough Enough Judge

Current WWE superstar The Miz was chosen to replace Hulk Hogan as a Tough Enough judge last night. There was no mention of Hogan or why he is off the show but it looks like Miz is now the permanent third panelist after Bryan Saxton replaced him on the post-show Network special Tough Talk. There were rumours in the last week that WWE Hall of Famers like Ric Flair and Bret Hart could be chosen to replace Hogan, but WWE went the safer route by going with Miz. It's possible that the legends weren't as familiar with the show, so it makes sense to go with Miz since he was around the cast since the beginning and he was also a Tough Enough runner up in 2004. This week's show saw Miz nominate big man Mada, Daniel Bryan nominated Amanda and Paige nominated ZZ, who is a popular guy that isn't keeping up that well with the other guys. When the judges were asked if they wanted to save anybody, Miz spoke up and saved Amanda because he thought she's a very attractive woman, which she is. That led to Paige freaking out on him because she thinks Amanda doesn't have it. https://twitter.com/WWEToughEnough/status/626195204123439105 Amanda ended up having the least amount of votes to stay, but since Miz saved her, Mada was the one eliminated due to having the second lowest vote total. There are three men and four women left on the show with one man and one woman getting WWE developmental deals as the winners of the season. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E7xjJ9Xv6tk
