WWE Tough Enough 2015: Ranking Every Contestant's Prospects

3. Chelsea Green

Eliminated: Episode seven. Chelsea wasn't originally on the show, but they used her as a replacement when Dianna quit. Fans might remember her from last summer's storyline as Daniel Bryan's physical therapist. She had blonde hair on this show to differentiate herself although that was mentioned. She had the advantage of being the only woman on Tough Enough that had experience in the ring. She was trained by Lance Storm and has been wrestling for a few years, but she was unable to get a connection with the audience. Perhaps it's because she wasn't on the show since the start, so that was a disadvantage for her. In terms of her future, if WWE was willing to put her on the show as a replacement then they are probably willing to look at her as a wrestler in the future. She may be back one day.

2. Sara Lee

Female Winner The winning female was Sara Lee, who earned $250,000 plus a one year contract with WWE. It's a lot of money as well as a lot of pressure. After she won, multiple people on the show like Paige, Lita and Booker T openly said that they didn't think she should have won. It wasn't up to them, though, because the fans loved her and voted her to win. One of the complaints about her was how she would smile when she was in the ring even though it's supposed to be this serious competition. Sure, she liked being in the ring, but you have to play a character and after ten weeks of training she really didn't understand that. She didn't really stand out in any competition and she was weak in nearly everything they did to develop her character. In ring she was very average. Why did she win? She has a "girl next door" kind of look about her that younger viewers probably liked while guys likely thought she was cute. She has a WWE deal, so at least for the next year she'll be there. Whether it's her long term future, I have my doubts about that. It's up to her to put in the work to show that she deserves it.
