The American Gladiators reboot has a premiere date. Amazon announced that the series will premiere with three episodes on Friday, April 17, on Prime Video. Three additional episodes will be released on April 24, and the final four episodes will be available on May 1. For more details, check out Deadline.com.
Powell’s POV: Just in time for WrestleMania weekend. The series is hosted by WWE star Mike “The Miz” Mizanin. AEW wrestlers Wardlow and Kamille, former WWE wrestler Eric Bugenhagen (f/k/a Rick Boogs), former TNA and current OVW wrestler Jessie Godderz, and independent wrestler “J-Rod” Jessica Roden are among the sixteen gladiators. The original series launched in 1989 and ran in syndication until 1996. NBC aired its own reboot, hosted by Hulk Hogan and Laila Ali, that ran for two seasons in 2008-2009.
