Last night was the fifth week of Tough Enough and you can really see the separation now. The elimination surprised me just a bit. Let's get right to breaking down the show...

Rey Mysterio.: I enjoy these special appearances and I'm sure they are really helpful for the contestants. My only complaint is that I wish they would show more of the visit on TV and I wish we would see the visiting star do some work in the ring, similar to what they did in the original seasons. By the way, seeing Rey on a motorcycle made me laugh. I couldn't picture him riding a motorcycle that's bigger than him.

Martin.: Martin is really continuing to impress on this show. He has really gone from being an afterthought to being the favorite in this competition. Last night's episode marked the third straight week Martin won the skills challenge, and the trainers won't forget that.

Jeremiah.: This guy is ugly as hell but he is super talented. At the beginning of the competition he said that he was a quick learner. I thought that was just some generic thing he was saying to cover for not having experience. He proved me wrong. He really is a quick learner, and he is in fantastic shape. I see him going really far in this competition.

Luke.: He really surprised me in this episode. He seems to be becoming unglued very quickly. It seemed like as soon as Martin started winning challenges, Luke started to crack. His biggest issue continues to be that he can't recognize his shortcomings and refuses to accept that others are outperforming him. Austin made a great point to him in the elimination segment that he has taken Jeremiah under his wing, and Jeremiah has surpassed him.

Erik and AJ.: I'm putting them together because the same thing applies to both. They both are continuing to just exist. They aren't breaking out but they haven't exactly been bad enough to be eliminated. One thing that really bothers me about Erik is that every time he takes a bump, he hits his head. I see AJ lasting longer than Erik, but I don't see either winning.

Andy.: Andy continues to impress me, especially with his size. He's a really big guy, but he moves like an average sized guy. In the future, this is going to help him progress. Although he has been impressive, I'm still not convinced he will win. Martin is too good right now, and Luke can always bounce back if he gets his head on straight.

Christina.: I think Christina is cute and she has some athletic ability, but she really needs to step it up. At first, she was flying under the radar, but now that the pool is thinning out, her flaws are really starting to show. Also, whenever she talks, she sounds like she's high. Bill's "pretty bird" impression of her last night was spot on.

Ivelisse.: At first, I thought she looked really impressive, and I expected her to go really far. But in recent weeks, the more I see her, the less I like her. She is starting to become a complainer, and it seems like she is looking for sympathy from everyone. I'm surprised she wasn't eliminated this week, especially with her injury, which she will clearly use to try gaining sympathy.

Ryan.: I'm kind of glad he's gone, although I'm surprised he was eliminated rather than Ivelisse or Christina. In the skills challenge, he did better than Luke. I thought that alone would save him, but he continued to just be a total goof. It didn't help that he disrespected Booker T. I think his attitude got him eliminated in the end.

Next week's episode looks pretty interesting, with John Morrison visiting, and that crazy rope thing. In the commercial, I already saw Ivelisse complaining about her injury. I see her being eliminated next. Until next time...
