I have two, somewhat related, thoughts on this. First, it's probably better to have experienced wrestlers look worse than they really are for the purposes of the show than try to have complete noobs try to look good. Second, in order to capitalise on their Tough Enough win they need to be on tv fairly quickly, if they have no prior experience it will take too long to get them ready for real matches and the momentum will be lost.

your 2nd point i think sums it up, didnt think of it like that but i think that may be the case
