WWE Tough Enough

The WWE had a reality TV series called Tough Enough. It was a professional wrestling training camp where participants competed for a contract with the WWE. Each season two winners were selected.

Sara Lee won the Tough Enough competition in 2015 and scored a $250,000 wrestling contract for 1 year with the WWE.

Lee worked with current WWE wrestlers at the camp for coaching, training, and tips on how to make it in professional wrestling.
