LOS ANGELES, CA -- A woman from Becker will appear on wrestling legend Stone Cold Steve Austin's reality TV show on CMT Sunday night.

Jen Callahan says a friend sent her a website link to apply to be on Steve Austin's Broken Skull Challenge, a show that features eight contestants competing in a series of physical challenges with a grand prize of $10,000.

"I [said] 'what the heck, I like a good competition'," Callahan says. "I didn't think there was a chance they would ever call me back and sure enough, they did."

Aside from the competition, Callahan says it was an enjoyable experience getting to meet Steve Austin and the other contestants.

Steve Austin's Broken Skull Challenge will air Sunday night at 7:00 p.m. on CMT.
