Former Tough Enough competitor Mada Abdelhamid comments on his time on the show

Former WWE Tough Enough Competitor Mada Abdelhamid recently spoke with Bleacher Report about why he tried out for the show and his time on the show. Down below are the highlights.

What inspired you to try out for Tough Enough?

My whole life, I always wanted to be in WWE but never knew how. I grew up watching all the greats. I enjoyed playing basketball, but it was always in the back of my head, and when the opportunity came up for Tough Enough, it was meant to be. It was the perfect situation for me to get my name out there and try out for WWE.

Describe your experience on the show. Did you enjoy your time in the barracks?

It was an amazing, life-changing experience. I loved everything about it. Living at the barracks was tough. It was more military style because it was in a big warehouse and there weren’t any windows. It got you in the zone and kept you more focused. And being around all these greats and coaches like Lita, Booker T and Billy Gunn was a surreal experience.

Those were my childhood heroes, and being around them motivated me to a higher level. The whole show was a lot more mental than it was physical. You can always push yourself physically, but mentally, it gets grueling after a while because you’re away from everybody.
