Owens Remembers Owen Hart
Kevin Owens remembered the late Owen Hart:
Owen Hart was a huge influence on me. As a kid, the fact that we share a birthday blew my mind…and it still does now! One of the best ever!

As we noted earlier, WWE is finally working on a documentary featuring the life and career of Owen Hart, with more information coming soon.
Renee Young on Tough Enough!
As we already knew, the return of WWE Tough Enough on the USA Network later this year is expected to have a different format to the last “Stone Cold” Steve Austin series that ran on the network. It was already announced that Chris Jericho will act as the host for the show, and that an all-star panel of Daniel Bryan, Hulk Hogan and Paige would be present as well. Booker T, Billy Gunn and Lita will act as coaches.
During the Steve Austin run, he played host and made the ultimate decisions as to which contestants would be cut from the show. Bill DeMott, Booker T and Trish Stratus were the coaches. It’s unclear what role the “panel” of stars will play in the show, but they are advertising a combination of “live television” and lots of fan participation, so it will be interesting to see how this version of Tough Enough differs from the more traditional format.
Renee Young announced on Twitter that she would be Chris Jericho’s co-host.
So stoked to be @IAmJericho‘s cohost for #ToughEnough!! I’ll be the Paula Abdul to his Ryan Seacrest!! @WWEToughEnough
