Lb.Stone, Ortmeyer, Knee, McClure and others:Become American Gladiators?

[Steve Kirit]

I was watching recently and this mainstream show seems tailor made for those who have withstood the test of strongman. I see Robin Coleman (ex WSM competitor) Mike O'Hearn (Bodybuilder, powerlifter) are the most formidable cast members from the episode I saw. I seriously think the producers would be awestruck at the strength , athleticism, and marketability of some of the top guys from Strongman of today, and the weekend warrior contestants on the show would truly taste FEAR.


I know there were tryouts last summer, I wonder if/when they will audition for new cast members.

I hear Gerard Benderoth was in for auditions...not sure of where it went from there.

Yeah it sounded like a great idea to me, there are gladiators on there that are like 220....All those Strongmen would make awesome gladiators!!

After the Fit-Expo I was contacted by the casting director and went through some of the application process for the show.......there is VERY LITTLE money in it.
