S10E16 American Gladiators (1989) (Fixed Audio)

Fixed Audio. This week, Who Put This On? steps into the arena. The original American Gladiators (1989, Prime Video) has everything you could want from late-80s syndicated television: hulking characters with names like Nitro and Gemini, foam jousting sticks, and an Eliminator that takes no prisoners. Are the gladiators wrestlers who were too good for wrestling? Does this hold up on its own merits, or is the group running purely on childhood fumes? Strap in and find out where American Gladiators lands on the WPTO scale.
