WWE RELEASES TOUGH ENOUGH WINNER

World Wrestling Entertainment has released the winner of the most recent Tough Enough season Andy Leavine, who was working in WWE developmental as Kevin Hackman.

Leavine was named the Tough Enough winner for the series' return to cable TV in April 2011. Leavine, who was a standout football player in college, had been signed to WWE developmental before being cast for the series.

After winning the Tough Enough season, Leavine was only seen in vignettes about his training to become a WWE star and was never utilized again on the main roster. At one point, he was suspended for a violation of the company's Wellness Policy.
