LaParkaMarka 0 Report post Posted February 12, 2008 Wasn't their a female Gladiator called Stealth? She's still in the opening credits, but I can't recall ever seeing her. She was the worst gladiator on that power rankings blog...it was linked a few pages back. They might have dropped her for being so bad at the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blade2kxx 0 Report post Posted February 18, 2008 Evan doesn't NEED a 19 point lead... male side is done, Evan wins easily in the Eliminator no matter what happens later. Crush is deadly with Joust, she's crazy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
randomguy 0 Report post Posted February 18, 2008 They need to change the rules of Joust so that competitors lose if they get down on a knee. The best strategy is just to turtle up which is pretty lame. Edit: They should probably change it to be like football where your hands and feet can touch the ground but that's it. Knight Rider looks awesomely awful. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

starvenger 0 Report post Posted February 18, 2008 Evan won 3 of 5 events, then won the Eliminator in 1'19". Alex had no chance. MILF Monica won the women's Eliminator, which was close until the handbike. Other randoms: - Agree with the Joust. Gladiators get DQ'ed for two knees on the platform - it should be the same for contenders. Tainted draw for Gina. - Wolf totally used Alex's head to rip him off the rings. How is that not a DQ? - Retain Hogan or Laila. Having both on the show is a waste of time. - RIP Shelly. I remember someone (SI?) did an article featuring her when she was on an all-woman's team in the America's Cup series. Only 39 though? Geez. - Evan will be like Elektra on the Wall. You draw him, you might as well kiss your chances of getting points buh-bye. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spaceman Spiff 0 Report post Posted February 18, 2008 Was Siren used for Hang Tough during the prelim rounds? She was 4 for 4 these last 2 shows, so I think she may have found "her event" (much like Joust/Crush). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Black Lushus 0 Report post Posted February 18, 2008 I think Venom and Fury did the majority of the Hang Tough duty. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vigo 0 Report post Posted February 18, 2008 Honestly, I don't see both of the winners becoming Gladiators. Evan, I can see because he doesn't have kids and is a sales clerk so being on AG would be alright for him. Monica on the other hand will probably pass on it since it would involve moving and all.

Black Lushus 0 Report post Posted February 18, 2008 Evan's size is his problem...other than The Wall, he'll need to get jacked up to at least Militia levels to do any damage. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LaParkaMarka 0 Report post Posted February 18, 2008 He could also do assault, it's not like that takes a crazy amount of skill. They might introduce a new game to play to Evan's strengths as well...any from the original series that would work? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Black Lushus 0 Report post Posted February 18, 2008 shit, I forgot about Assault. He probably has enough total body strength to play Atlasphere. Maybe what's it called where they bounce on bungees to grab balls off the pole. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vigo 0 Report post Posted February 18, 2008 Evan's size is his problem...other than The Wall, he'll need to get jacked up to at least Militia levels to do any damage. Well, Hogan did tell him he'd show him how to hang and bang at the gym. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Black Lushus 0 Report post Posted February 18, 2008 ha! Watch out for those needles Evan! Family schedule aside, i can see Monica jacking up enough to be a tough Gladiator. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Conspiracy_Victim 0 Report post Posted February 18, 2008 Evan would do well on The Wall (of course), and he might do OK on Hang Tough with a little bit more mass. Throw in a few turns on Assault and Hit and Run and you've got a Gladiator. It'll be tough for him overall though because he doesn't have the size for the more physical events like Pyramid, Gauntlet, Earthquake, and Powerball.

Blade2kxx 0 Report post Posted February 19, 2008 Evan's name should be something speed-related... if Flash wasn't trademarked, it would be perfect. Maybe Lightning. He'll be perfect for The Wall and Assault, and maybe Pyramid because of his speed. He'd have to play it like Wolf and go balls out though. Monica I don't know enough about, but she seems like she could pull it off. Dunno about the name though. Stealth and Militia need to go though. I'm surprised they didn't go with the psycho-dream team of Wolf and Toa for Pyramid last night though. I love when they work together. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mik 0 Report post Posted February 19, 2008 Yeah but I think she only appeared on one event all season. They won't bring her back. At least we know Gina will be back for season 2. She said on Inside MMA on Friday. They should bring back mostly everyone. They could lose Hellga and Militia though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
