@@l-wolverine2211 i agree with you. We just don't live in a society where actual gladiators can be appreciated like they used to be because of all the sjw and other bleeding hearts who would bitch and complain about everything
@@frostywarrior4649 That’s not how I see it. It’s more because WWE is all about Fake Wrestling & Entertainment, which is contradictory to what AG was back in the 90’s. Imagine if there was a lot of Fake Material in the Events, Contenders, Hosts, Officials, and even the Gladiators themselves. That’s something that Fans like me would NEVER want to be a part of.
I'm from the UK, and Wesley Berry was still the most iconic contender I remember from when he came over for the international events. But this eliminator was definitely controversial. The travelator '3rd attempt' rule spoilt this because he was able to make barely a token effort on his second try before jogging up the side, and I swear the fact he finished the zipline first meant he should have taken the outside lane on the finish (which was probably the fault of the ref, or maybe 2 scoops was too quick for him to do anything!). Still, I'm glad he came through because the legend was born :D
Yes, Wesley actually beat Muse in the previous round because Muse mistakenly tried to take the outside lane, thinking he had landed first, and while the ref was redirecting him, "Two Scoops" was already on the travelator. If you notice, though, both Wesley and Kim took the inside lane, despite landing first, and the ref didn't correct either of them.
It literally took 5000% to beat Goodwin because he was really a great Contender. Surprising to see both Goodwin and 2 Scoops struggle on the treadmill.
2 Scoops is such a legend that I completely forgot he legitimately should have lost back to back shows. After that whole controversy the previous week with who got sent down which lane after the zip line, how does he not only go to the wrong lane but have a ref not jump in and block him like what happened to his opponent? This is so bizarre to rewatch. That treadmill rule absolutely ruined this season, and it was a disaster for the women going all the way back to season 3.
For the first one, 2 scoops landed first after the zip line thus was to go to the outside. Nothing weird there. For the second, they changed the rules and he landed first and the ref gestured for him to go to the inside, which he did. Again, nothing wrong there. He won legitimately both times.
@@enigmazero8624 I deduced that because you can see the ref point where the first person should go. You can see it more clear in the women's eliminator.
@@enigmazero8624 Totally! No idea why they'd do it. Last time Mike Adamle said the first to land after the zip line was "awarded" the outside lane. It must be based on a merit system. Like the leader gets the best lane, although I'm not sure what makes one lane better than the other.
when i watched this back in the day i always thought why they were allowed to run up the side of the travelator.after 2 trys of the travelator. yet u could not in our british one and i still dont know till this very day
2 Scoops climbed that Cargo net 👌 with technical prowess! I noticed that he used a vertical to pull himself up with his 👋 hands which made it less floppy and him able to seed up!
Hawk(RIP) was a lot smarter than what fans gave him credit for. He went to Cornell University, and had a degree in Business, and his somehow translated to being a Gladiator.
Agree. With that said, that was some quick thinking on Berry's part with his second "bonafide" attempt there. Calculated risk, for sure, but it paid off.
Was Episode 11 of Season Five on the American Gladiators feature the two Grand Champion contenders, Kimberly Tyler (women) and Wesley "Two Scoops" Berry (men) with the 100%?
Bring this show baaack. Loved it as a kid, more than WWE
There was a rumor that WWE was trying to reboot AG. If that happens, it’ll be 2008 all over again, a DISASTER

Rest in heaven both Siren and Hawk.
Even after all these years I still feel Sean Goodwin should have won.
After watching I disagree, Sean had his chance an he couldn't make it up treadmill 🤷♂️
Wes was ahead of him after the cargo net and they both fell down the treadmill twice so it was fair enough Wesley won when they got to go up the side
Nah fam… this was a dog fight but Wesley was the better man in this moment. I remember beefing with childhood friends over who was better😂
I'm honestly surprised Siren won both those whiplashes. That shit was close.
Both Sean Goodwin and Welsey Berry are amazing contenders in the 1st Half Final on American Gladiators.
The baddest male Gladiator competitors:
Craig Williams, Brian Hutson, Lincoln Simonds, Lucian Anderson, Coz Worthington, Darryl Gholar, Tim Goldrick, Joseph Mauro, Mark Ortega, Cliff Miller, Ted LePage, Spencer Street, Jayson Yao, Vince Grainger, Willie Cooley, Wesley "Two Scoops" Berry, Kyler Storm.

Kimberly Tyler had an amazing Performance in the Women's 1st Half Final on American Gladiators.
Classic case of the treadmill 2 attempts rule. Could have been different if they had to actually get up properly.
Could have would have should have does not go in the record books
I find Scoops small size inspirational. Talk about being as big as he needed to be.

@@c0mputer they changed the rules that were used all season right before the finals? Why? And how do you know that’s true?

@@c0mputer ok, but doesn’t that seem shady as hell to just decide to make that change for the last show of the season only?

I don’t no how they didn’t have 2 scoops on the netflix doc
He did the ESPN one
RIP Hawk
I didn't know he passed
Kim Tyler was a great game player

16:36 Siren’s strength and resilience is so impressive. Most would just give up
I'm guessing where the red line is (in front of where the Ref is standint) is the mark for Bonafide attempt. Still a good race.
Not the first time 2 Scoops barely beat a guy with a ponytail who had him for most of the Eliminator.
Such a eliminator being decided by allowing someone to run up the side is stupid.
Totally. I was shocked to see this. Completely ridiculous
2 Scoops climbed that Cargo net 👌 with technical prowess! I noticed that he used a vertical to pull himself up with his 👋 hands which made it less floppy and him able to seed up!
Wesley Berry should been American Gladiator he was tough guy for a small man
He said on 30 for 30 that he opted to be a contenders coach instead.
14:38
27:40 no pain no gain no fame
30:26
0:35 American Gladiators.
1:17 is still 🔥 👌 😍 💯 ❤ ♥ running 🏃♂️ 😑 😀 🤣 😄 🙄 high.
Im suprised sabre didnt crush wesley
I randomly thought how 2 Scoops 😂
2 scoops falls off the wall while being chased by Sabre again
Hawk(RIP) was a lot smarter than what fans gave him credit for. He went to Cornell University, and had a degree in Business, and his somehow translated to being a Gladiator.
I think his whole dumb jock shtick was his gimmick for the show. He played on it loads when he came for the International series.
Hawk is so flaccid. Just his grunts are flaccid.
This is why they got rid of that Treadmill Rule after Season 5.
You Finish the Eliminator by Completing the Treadmill.
Agree.
With that said, that was some quick thinking on Berry's part with his second "bonafide" attempt there. Calculated risk, for sure, but it paid off.
Don't be fooled, Wesley is one of the biggest jerks I've ever met.
That was the closest eliminator in that season.
Was Episode 11 of Season Five on the American Gladiators feature the two Grand Champion contenders, Kimberly Tyler (women) and Wesley "Two Scoops" Berry (men) with the 100%?
I don't think that Kimberly Tyler was Grand Champion that season.
Peggy Odita was Grand Champion which we will see in the near future in the second half of the fifth season
Every time I hear Wesley say more than 100%, I'm convinced he needs to study math some more.
No one ever beats 2 scoops
