Default American Gladiators

Did anyone watch this tonight? It was on while I was at the gym, so I caught a bit of it. I mainly watched to see how Gina Carano did.

I was a bit disappointed to see her lose to one of the challengers in joust, but it was funny when she pulled guard on a different girl in the pyramid event.

I watched it. I was a bit disappointed but I'll proabably tune in next week.

The first girl totally blew her ACL. I felt really bad for her.

Pretty good stuff...brings back memories of 20-25 years ago when it was on late Saturday nights (I think)

I'd like to go TD's with the gladiators.

I think it's way cheesier than the old version. Especially with Hulk. It's not a great show, but yet I watched. Go figure.

I agree Pod. I think its even more fake than before- which is a bad thing for the show's chance to succeed.

A big, athletic college wrestler would own their Gladiators.

The one guy on there was like 5'7" 165lbs! The female Gladiators were bigger.

Gina Carano aka Crush looks like a big Kelly Clarkson (one of my favs, yes I love manly music, we all know that) to me.

I didn't see it Monday, but on Sunday the gladiator they had for the guy's joust, he was like 6'8" and almost 300 lb. Anyone else think he looked like Busta Rhymes?

Your confusing him with Justice - he's the black dude with the hair that comes to a point. He's 6'8", 290. Mayhem has the long dreads and he's 6'5", 230.

Hellga is 6'1" 205. That's one big bitch.

I watched it again Monday. It wasn't so bad but I liked the older show better. But hey I'm the guy who thinks wrestling in the 80s was better than today's so...
