By Richard Trionfo on 2015-06-30 21:25:25
It is time for Miz to take over for Chris Jericho and Renee Young to host Tough Talk on the WWE Network as we look back at this week’s episode of Tough Enough and talk to the contestants.

Miz responds to the calls that he is Jericho Junior by Chris Jericho himself.

Miz introduces the judges again.

Miz mentions that one dream ended tonight and he brings up Alex to talk first.

Miz asks Alex how he feels. He says it was tough. He did not exert all of his abilities. Miz asks Alex why he didn’t do all he could do. Alex says his cardio was not where it should have been. He did not show his potential. It is what it is. He says that he cannot swim. Miz asks if wrestling could be a career for him. He says he would love to continue this. He told Lita that this was hard, but he loves challenges in his life. He is asked if knowledge means nothing.

Alex says he knows who the superstars are. He does not know the wrestlers from 1985. He does not have to know everyone, he just has to know about the people who made it. He says his family is probably disappointed since they didn’t expect that he would be eliminated so soon.

Hogan says it took courage to go into the water without knowing how to swim. Paige says she understands Alex. Daniel says he felt bad putting Alex up for elimination. Paige brings up what everyone had to give up to get here. Daniel talks about being thrown into the swamp without knowing how to swim.

Miz mentions he got cut and look where he is now.

Miz brings up Dianna. Miz says that Dianna seemed a bit nervous. She says it got frustrating and you have to hope for the best. Dianna thought she was going to be going home. Miz points out that she did well at everything except in the ring. She thanks the people for standing up for her and she thanks Vince, Hunter, and Stephanie.

Miz asks why everyone wants her to go. Miz says Hogan was right about locker room etiquette.

Dianna says she shows respect for a majority of things, but to have to talk so bad about someone and then be their friend when the cameras are off, it is tough. Miz asks Dianna how her family thinks she is doing. They know she is a hard worker and belongs here. Dianna points out her fiancée in the crowd.

Miz mentions that he saw Dianna looking at her fiancée all night. We see the ring and Paige calls him whipped. Miz asks if she made him wear the ring. He says that she proposed to him. Miz asks Dianna how did she propose to him. She says she bought a ring for her and he told her to mimic his proposal.

Miz asks her fiancée how is she doing and he says she is doing great. Hogan asks him about the switch she turns on and off. Dianna says she has had some trouble getting along with the people.

Daria is brought up and we have a debate over the way to pronounce her name. We are told that it is not the way the cartoon character’s name is pronounced. Daria points out that her enemy knows how to pronounce her name.

Miz asks Daria what her problem is with Dianna. She says Dianna does not show the respect in the barracks. Dianna says she does not respect Daria.

Hogan asks why Daria is called the Jersey Devil. Daria mentions it is a fictional creature that haunts little kids. Miz says that you don’t want to be throwing that around. Daria says she is representing New Jersey and she is a devil in the ring.

Daniel asks Dianna why does she hate being called ‘princess’. She says it just got to her. If she gets nagged, she will fight back.

Hogan tells Dianna that they are going to call her ‘princess’ all the time.

Daria points how Gabi changed over the last week.

Miz has something to talk to Daria about. He brings up how emotional Daria got about losing the title belt. She says that she is the most passionate. Tanner asks why didn’t you go get the belt if you were so passionate.

Daria mentions that she was drowning and that she cannot swim that well. She was swimming for her life.

Daria asks Tanner if he cheated in the contest. Miz asks Tanner and he says that he did not cheat. He says there was a misconception about the rules.

Miz asks Tanner if he has his belt and he says it is in his bag. He asks if everyone has their belt with them.

Miz is given the belt that was recovered from the bottom of the swamp and Miz is asked if he should give it to her. There is a battle of yeses and nos.

Miz says when and if you ever get an opportunity to go for a championship in the WWE, you guard it with your life. You do not lose the belt because so many people have held a title. Miz says that he is going to give it to Paige.

Paige says she will give it to Daria when she deserves it.

Daniel says that Mada got a title and he did not complete the challenge. Daria did complete the challenge and the belt fell into the swamp. There are alligators in there.

Paige says the challenge is to get the belt. Daniel says you cannot see in the water. Daniel says the diver who went to get the belt got scared. He felt something move in the water.

Miz brings up ZZ as a Gator Expert. Miz asks if the diver should have been scared. ZZ says ‘yeah’ and Daniel’s point is proven.

Miz has a ‘but’ for ZZ. ZZ says he is laid back since he is from Louisiana. ZZ says that he was going to go back for the belt but the coaches thought that he was playing around so they told him to leave the water.

ZZ asks Miz if he is not entertained.

Josh is called forward and Miz tells Josh not to put his arm around him. He is asked about calling people ‘babe’. He asks if Tanner cheated. He says that there was a gray area and he abided by the rules, but some did not. Josh says that he would have won. Miz points out that Josh pushed Tanner in a playful way but Tanner was more serious with his push. Miz wonders if Josh is afraid of Tanner.

Miz says it was like a bully being beaten up. Josh says he is not afraid of Tanner, as he takes the mic from Miz. Miz adds another thing to the list of things that Josh has done to irk him. Josh says it was a ‘love tap’ and Tanner gave it back. They were in the zone where they are competing. Hogan wants to know who could kick each other’s ass. Daniel asks Josh if he could beat Tanner in a fight and Josh says he could.

Paige wants some jelly thrown on them if they fight and Tanner is up for it.

Miz points out that Tanner lost in the ring and arm wrestling. Tanner says he is not here for the biceps. He doesn’t have the biggest biceps. He can run and perform. Miz points out that the first time in the ring, he did not win.

Tanner points out that Patrick has in ring experience and he was surprised that Patrick didn’t tell Roman.

Tanner says that he was surprised about Alex being eliminated.

Miz brings up Gabi, who was excited to see Roman in the ring. Miz asks if Gabi’s husband is here and he goes to ask him his thoughts about Roman. They point out that Gabi said that Roman ‘made her wet’. Daniel makes sure to repeat what Gabi said. Her husband says if that is the way she feels, Gabi is with her. Miz points out that Gabi will be on the road 250 days a year, surrounded by guys like Roman all the time. He says they are committed to her success.

Miz asks Gabi if she wishes she had the filter. She is asked about Roman. Gabi says he knows it was a joke. She talked to her husband about that.

Daniel says that he doesn’t get wet around Roman. He wondered how many times Gabi has been married and she tells him three times. Daniel points out that this is a tough business. Gabi says that she can be funny or aggressive. She says that this was her funny side.

Miz asks Gabi about her back bump and he explains to her that was the move in the ring. She says she was afraid of heights, but the bump did not hurt until the next day. Gabi says that they got to see NXT on the road and she is looking forward to going to more shows.

Mada is wished a happy birthday and he mentions that his son stood up on his own when he talked to him. Mada talks about how it is tough to not be with his son, but he is looking forward to being able to perform in front of him.

Amanda is called up and she says that she is doing fine. She thinks that she is standing out a little more. She was standing out more at the start of the episode. She is not going to jump into fights when she is not involved.

Paige says that you need to stand out.

Miz brings out Giorgia. She says she is feeling amazing. Miz points out that she is around the fights, but not involved. She is asked who the weakest girl is and she takes some time to say something. She says the other girls have weaknesses. She says Sara Lee is the weakest.

Sara Lee points out that she finished second.

Giorgia says that Sara Lee looks the most awkward in the ring.

Miz points out that if you blink, you miss seeing Sara.

Miz brings up Patrick. Miz says that Patrick seems passionate about the WWE and how he got angry at Alex. Miz says that not everyone is going to be like him. He asks if anyone else is like Alex. Patrick says everyone else has been watching the network and they have been trying to learn.
