Hahaha! He looks like they pulled him out of a WWF scrap yard! Can't wait to see him rolling around in "Powerball" wearing the shirtdress! I hope they keep the contests super cheesy like they were in the original. I always thought they'd have been great fodder for MST3K. ;D Don't know if you know, but they rerun the old shows of American Gladiators on ESPN Classic sometimes. I laugh my ass off everytime!

What I always thought was funny about the show was how they stacked the deck in the Gladiator's favor by only choosing contenders that were half their size. I'd love to see them deal with someone like Brian Urlacher or Michael Strahan so you could see them totally get abused. ;D

My brother and I both loved the show a lot as kids.
With all the reality stuff coming out, I'll never be surprised another athletic show is coming out, whether it is new or revived.

Nicely done Laz. Anybody ever watch "Rock'N'Roller Games" with the alligator pit in the middle?(I think that was the title or else theme song)
