Steve Austin’s Broken Skull Challenge kicks off tonight on CMT

Stone Cold Steve Austin returns on national television tonight with CMT’s newest competition series titled Steve Austin’s Broken Skull Challenge.

The 10-episode series pits elite athletes against everyday men and women in the ultimate test of strength, stamina and wit. Each episode features eight contestants in head-to-head battles until the last man or woman standing earns the right to take on the toughest obstacle course in America created by Austin himself, the “Skullbuster,” for a chance to win cash.

In tonight’s first episode, there is no shortage of adrenaline as eight men battle for the win in Trench Warfare, The Pulverizer and The Junkyard. If they lose, they leave. Austin’s rules are fair, and competitors are quick to learn that even those with the most physical power may not be a match against pure determination. In the end, only one athlete will make it to the Skullbuster and even then, there are no guarantees he will complete it.

Steve Austin’s Broken Skull Challenge kicks off at 8PM EST.
