The WWE revealed the plans for Tough Enough and part of it included Chris Jericho hosting the revamped version of the show while Hulk Hogan, Paige and Daniel Bryan will serve as judges on the panel.
Jericho recently spoke to AfterBuzz about the new version of Tough Enough and what fans can expect.
"It's a whole new Tough Enough, it's not like you've seen before," Jericho said. "I think from what I understand it's gonna be more like The Voice where there's mentors you know like if you had Christina Aguilera and Blake Nelson? Shelton or whatever cats are on there. And that's what Hogan and Paige and Daniel Bryan will do. I'll be the host."
Jericho also spoke about the King of the Ring tournament being resurrected recently and WWE CEO Vince McMahon's uneasiness with tournaments.
"Vince McMahon does not like tournaments," Jericho said. "I think because WrestleMania IV was a tournament for the title and it didn't do a good PPV number and the show wasn't very good. And ever since then he does not like tournaments."
Jericho, who recently announced that he'll be touring with the WWE on the house show circuit this summer, also said he recently discovered who was slated to be behind the infamous GTV storyline during the Attitude Era.
The storyline involved hidden cameras would spy on various Superstars, but the angle never led to any sort of reveal, though Jericho said Tom Green was supposed to be behind it.
"When I did the Live with Chris Jericho with Stephanie at the Titan Studios WWE Studios," Jericho said of when he found out. "GTV was supposed to be Tom Green. Yes. And I just found out about it the other day. I didn't know! GTV. And remember doesn't it fit because remember Tom Green used to film stuff you know, pranks, stuff and all that s--t and then what happened was they started planting the seeds for GTV and then Vince actually saw Tom Green's stuff and said this guy is not funny. Done."
Lastly, the first ever WWE Undisputed Champion spoke about his Talk is Jericho podcast and how much he enjoys talking to people on it.
"It's all just interactive man it's fun just to talk," he said. "I enjoy doing the podcast because I don't consider it to be interview it's a conversation. A great podcast a great interview isn't a history lesson it's just talking. We don't have questions, we've been talking for the last 20-40 whatever it is. I enjoy that and my mission is that when people leave the show they go like, 'that is one of my favorite interviews I ever had'. And that's kinda the feedback that I get. So I'm Johnny Carson I'm not Barbara Walters so if you want hard hitting questions and that sort of thing that's not my style and it never will be. I like having people come on and have fun, tell some funny stories, have a few laughs and go, 'ya I want to do that again next time'."
