This week on "Who Put This On?" we are lacing up our sneakers and dodging oversized foam Q-tips as we dive into the American Gladiators revival on Amazon Prime. We compare this shiny new 2026 version to the 2008 Hulk Hogan era to see if the franchise has finally found its footing or if it is still stuck in the mud of the Eliminator. We break down the new roster of Gladiators, discuss whether The Miz is the host we deserved, and debate if the three-event format is enough to keep us coming back. Does this reboot land in the top tier of competitive reality or is it a bottom-level effort that should have stayed in the 90s?
