Wow!!! That’s what you say when you are blown away by the amazing body of the newest gladiator, Phoenix. Our friends at MonstersandCritics.com got a chance to sit down with some of the Gladiators at a breakfast junket recently in stories part one and part two. Besides learning what has Hulk’s interest and what the Gladiators eat regularly, they got to snap a few pictures. And did they deliver! Part two of the story has several photos of Toa, Wolf and our new favorite Phoenix. You’ll notice she goes from the girl next door in the first photo to the smokin’ girl next door by the third picture. Enjoy! This season looks like the Gladiators have stepped up the beauty!

We have confirmed ‘Toa’ the last main male American Gladiator who has been unknown to this point as Tanoai Reed.  Tanoai is a professional actor, stuntman and personal body double to his cousin Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson.  Tanoai got his start in the movie biz with a stunt role in Kevin Costner’s Waterworld back in 1995.  Ever since he has been in over 20 films as a stuntman or stunt double.  Also Tanoai has appeared in several movies as an actor including Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle, Dark Justice, The Stepfod Wives, Constantine and Batman Legends.  Learn more about ‘Toa’ on his biography page.

The latest additions to the gladiator crew include Jesse Smith (Justice), Alex Castro (Militia), and William Romeo (Mayhem).  Not much is known at this point about Alex Castro or William Romeo but Jesse Smith whos real nickname is actually “Saint Justice” and  ”Justice” tall man at 6′ 8″ tall, weighing 230 lbs.  Justice is mainly a kick boxer by trade but has competed in the WWE “Tough Enough”.  He also has a few televison and movie roles to his name being in the film ‘Like Mike’ and Gilmore Girls.  For more info on Jesse Justice Smith check out his biography page.

These three gentlemen take us up to 5 of the 7 male gladiators with the exception of ‘Toa’ and the alternate gladiator Hammer who is not known.  Keep checking back for more American Gladiator information.

With the taping of the show already underway and a full studio audience on hand you knew some details were going to get out even though no cameras or phones are aloud into the studio.  The Gladiators names were picked up by some of the audience members and posted across the net, it looks like we are going to have 12 Gladiators.  The Gladiators names are Helga, Siren, Fury, Venom, Wolf, Justice, Toa, Titan, Stealth, Mayhem, Militia and Blast.  It’s really just a matter of time before all the details come out on who the Gladiators are and what names go with each.
