For the first season of American Gladiators we know there will be two alternate Gladiators in case a regular one gets injured or has other obligations whatever they might be.  The male alternate Gladiator is ‘Hammer’ (Michael Briehler) and the female alternate is ‘Blast’ (Jenny Barry) according to Hardbody.com.  Male Gladiator Michael Briehler is a fresh face recently out of college from Rider University Business School where he earned a bachelor’s degree in Entrepreneurship studies.  Nothing is known about Jenny Barry just yet but we will keep digging and find something. Until then check out Michael’s biography page.
