WWE "Tough Enough" winner Josh Bredl received a lot of heat for a tweet he posted calling the Social Outcasts stable the Social Jobbers. Bredl, who goes by the name Bronson Mathews in NXT, was called out by Kevin Owens and others on Twitter for what he said.

He's under contract for $250,000 for winning the reality show competition and things could get interesting for him on Sunday. There are rumors that Bredl could be used in the Rumble Match, and with people already mad at him, it could get ugly, according to Wrestlingheadlines.com.
