Rock may have had a jump start with his dad being in the business, and a lot of second or third generation wrestlers may as well, but even then, they grew up in the business.

If you look at all great champions of the past, none of them started out as big superstars.

Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels, Undertaker, Steve Austin, Hulk Hogan, Mick Foley, Triple H, even Rock, who I mentioned, had to take it slow.

There aren't many other areas in life where I agree with people just being handed things either. In my opinion, where most people have to claw their way to the top, everyone should, and Tough Enough, to me, is like a handout.
So because it worked in the past, it shouldn't be changed?

I direct you, once more, to the effectiveness of the slave trade.
