Amazon Prime is getting ready to reboot the “American Gladiators” series and today, The Hollywood Reporter revealed the first 16 gladiators – eight women and weight man between the ages of 22-38. The group includes five pro wrestlers.
Hosted by WWE’s The Miz, the five wrestlers are: Eric Bugenhagen (former WWE star Rick Boogs), Michael Wardlow (AEW’s Wardlow), Jessie Godderz (OVW’s Mr. PEC-Tacular), Jessica Roden (OVW’s J-Rod) and Kailey Latimer (AEW’s Kamille). They will all get unique new names much like the original Gladiators. Chris Rose will be the play-by-play commentator and former BET 106 & Park co-host Rocsi Diaz will serve as a sideline interviewer.
