I thought it was a great final! Although did anyone else think there was something up with Phantom’s leg in Unleash?

Yep we’ve just watched the final and felt like the gladiators were fatigued and something was deffo wrong with phantom’s leg as he was quite “slow” on unleash.

Every time the commentator says a gladiator is undefeated on something they inevitably then lose. I’d really like to hope that the producers don’t get involved with much of the show ie I hope that it’s general bad luck rather than a glad being told they need to topple off to give x contender points.

that male final was incredible. Poor Tyler.

fingers crossed there are less injuries next season. I’ve missed diamond and I really want Athena to actually come good - I had high hopes for her!

He didn't look at his best, I think he was carrying an injury.

They work so hard for the three weeks or so of filming the show, they must be absolutely knackered by the end. They are supposedly adding 2 new gladiators for next year, but i think they need to add more rest days between recording blocks.

I have really enjoyed this series. It is really inspiring seeing how hard everyone works

Apparently he was injured. So many injuries this series. Legend, Diamond, Athena, Fury and Bionic. I think there might have been someone else as well.

But if he was injured, why not get one of the others to do the event?
From the looks of things they were all walking wounded by the end. No point getting Giant out there as he's slower than my nan driving. They should have got Nitro to run again, the guy never broke a sweat.

Apollo and Hammer can have a good run too I think?

slower than my nan driving though 😂

I think it would be a good idea to get a few new Glads in. Due to injuries, it does feel a bit like its just the same few doing all the events every week. Which obviously can't be helped.

However, any new Glads need to be more Cyclone and less Hammer. More bad ass, less cringe please!

I was thinking the other day that they should do a special where the gladiators go up against each other on the events and also have them all do the eliminator - that would be so entertaining.

My thoughts are that most of them are built for power and strength and would actually struggle with the eliminator!

I say this every week since the show was brought back. Initially I thought thats what the tour was.

Steel said the Gladiators can refuse to do certain events. He says he won’t do Unleashed as he has a bad ankle. Surprised Apollo didn’t do it. I get the feeling seeing as it’s always the same fee that do Unleashed it’s not a popular event for the Gladiators

Whichever male contender doesn’t get nitro in unleashed, has an advantage
I remember in the first series a contender saying about powerball or something that his strategy was to outrun Nitro. Nitro responded with "I'm an Olympic sprinter. You aren't outrunning me!" And some poor sod always gets him on unleashed.

It would have been fairer for both contestants to get Nitro in unleashed rather than make an injured Gladiator run.

I agree. Cyclone did the same event twice in one episode in the semi final so why couldn’t Nitro do unleashed twice?

Phantom was practically limping, it was in no way fair and left a sour taste in my mouth that Josh was given 10 points on a plate.
