We are back, and footage from the 1,000,000 Tough Enough casting special was shown. 50 men participated in some grueling tests in Venice Beach, Ca, in order to knock the list down to 8. At one point, Brian Danovich injured his arm, but continued doing the tests. While he was cut, he did recieve a developmental contract anyway, due to the heart and spirit he showed. After it was all said and done, the final 8 were chosen: Daniel Puter, Ryan Reeves, Nick Mitchell, Mike Mizanin (from The Real World), Justice Smith, John Meyer, Chris N., and Dan Rodimer. If I misspelled any names, I apologize.

Up now is a video package, detailing the situation regarding the Six man tag team main event, from this past Thurday. Booker T was put in the match, teaming with Rey Mysterio and RVD against the Tag Champs Kenzo and Rene, and the WWE Champ JBL (called a Champions Showcase match). Leading into the main event, nobody knew whose side Booker would be on. He told RVD and Rey that he would be doing his thing by himself, and congratulated JBL on his recent success. When it came time for the match, RVD and Rey pretty much took care of things by themselves, using innovative manuevers. Nearing the end, RVD was knocked out on the outside, so Rey was forced to tag in Booker. JBL looked worried, but Booker smiled. Booker held Rey, as JBL went for the Clothesline from Hell. Booker tossed Rey out of the way, and hit the champ with a side kick! Booker took out the Tag Champs, and eventually hit the Scissors Kick to pin the champion! What does this mean for the Champ? Tune in next week to find out!
