00:00A cool breeze outside of the Gladiator Arena tonight,
00:04but inside, the heat is on.
00:15It's the last round of the American Gladiator Semifinals.
00:19I'm the one in the arena.
00:23I'm the one, remember my name.
00:27Gladiator Arena!
00:30Are you ready to see some more semifinals action?
00:38All right, here we go.
00:39Our events tonight are putting a big, buff, exclamation mark on your semifinals.
00:45Let's just go ahead and hand it over to Chris Rose to tell us all about tonight's point spread.
00:50Chris.
00:52Well, tonight, it all comes down to this.
00:55One final shot to make it to the finals.
00:58The points have never mattered more.
01:00Let's go to the bracket and see where we stand.
01:03Last night, we saw Ben move on in the men's heat, while Bailey moved on in the women's heat.
01:09Now, we're down to the final bracket of the semifinals.
01:12Austin and Kyle are set on the men's side.
01:15Austin Liu, the man who works in motion caps, he's doing this for his mom and his entire family.
01:20And Kyle Bernier told us he dreamed of this opportunity, and after an injury, he came in as an alternate,
01:26and it opened the door for one more chance to compete.
01:29And he says that 100 grand would help support his three-year-old son, Maverick.
01:34On the women's side, we have an update to the bracket.
01:38Rebecca Clemens, the circus performer who has made the most of her wild card opportunity, has a new opponent.
01:44Jordan, our baker from the state of Michigan, has to unfortunately withdraw from the competition due to injury.
01:51Under 20 to go.
01:53And that'll do it.
01:54Looks like she took it a little hard on that left arm.
01:57So, with the next fastest eliminator time, it's going to be Terry Bell, the Army veteran replacing her tonight against
02:05Rebecca Clemens.
02:06Here's what she had to say about it.
02:08I get another chance.
02:09This is my dream come true.
02:12There's no hesitation.
02:13I'm taking it all.
02:16Neither Terry Bell nor Rebecca Clemens were supposed to be here in a true twist of fate and luck.
02:22Both got the call after injuries opened the door, and suddenly, that enabled not one, but two semifinalists to get
02:28a second-chance showdown.
02:30Anything can happen in the Gladiator Arena.
02:33At stake, $100,000.
02:36A trophy.
02:37And the kind of glory only American Gladiators can deliver.
02:41They'll be joining Evan, Ayana, Ben, and Bailey, who have already locked in their spots.
02:47Two final openings, one last chance.
02:50It all happens tonight.
02:53All right, Gladiator Arena.
02:56Are you ready for your first event?
02:59Yeah!
02:59Roxy, tell us about this souped-up semifinals edition of Atlasphere's Crash Course.
03:05I got you, Mike.
03:07Atlasphere Crash Course.
03:09Two contenders race their spheres toward the finish line,
03:12with Gladiators ready to smash, bash, and derail their dreams.
03:18First, the cost gets 10 points.
03:20After that, the second contender has 10 seconds to finish for five points.
03:25Run out of time, you roll away with nothing.
03:29Kyle left his regular day job to start a business.
03:32It hasn't gone as well as he had hoped.
03:35So he said the $100,000 would be huge not only for his business, but help support his three-year
03:41-old son.
03:42This isn't just a game show for me.
03:45This is real.
03:46Would you win if you were on the show?
03:48You would win?
03:49I believe you would win, because you're super strong.
03:52I'm doing this for my son.
03:53I just want him to have a sense of pride in his father.
03:59And I heard a lot of people get emotional.
04:02I didn't think I would.
04:05And then for myself as well.
04:06I just want to prove to myself that I can do what I believe I'm capable of.
04:10My parents were both professional bodybuilders.
04:13My mom had more success in it, I think, than my dad.
04:16She actually had me, and then nine months later, competed.
04:19Very impressive.
04:20And so I decided to pursue a fitness business, and gave literally my life to it for 12 years.
04:25Working in restaurants at night to make money, and then training during the day.
04:29I fail a lot.
04:31I succeed a lot.
04:32But I'm committed to the process.
04:35It's been a season, to say the least.
04:39Being able to win this competition would mean the world, I know.
04:41This time when you reach your arms, reach way out in front of you.
04:44I want my son to see that you have to be willing to take risks.
04:47You have to be willing to bet on yourself.
04:48This is when hard work and opportunity collide.
04:54I'm here to win American Gladiators.
04:57Now for the Gladiators, about to turn this track into a battlefield.
05:02He's very, very frightening.
05:05It's lightning!
05:07Lightning!
05:08At 6'5", 250 pounds, this D1 athlete hits harder than your morning espresso.
05:14Let's go!
05:15Hey, we're going nowhere!
05:18He's man's best friend, but definitely not yours.
05:22Here's Frank!
05:25Oh!
05:27Bang's dreamed of this since he was a kid.
05:29And now, this pro wrestler's finally in the cage.
05:37And of course, we've got our head referee, Thomas Taylor, on the floor with Robin DiLorenzo and Mike Sidara.
05:44Thomas, take it away!
05:47Contenders win!
05:49Both Austin and Kyle did Atlas fear in the prelims, but not crash course.
05:54One of them is guaranteed 10 points.
05:58Gladiators win!
06:00Woo!
06:01Let's go!
06:02They're getting through me!
06:04Woo!
06:04Woo!
06:05Woo!
06:06Woo!
06:07Woo!
06:07Woo!
06:08Woo!
06:08Woo!
06:08Woo!
06:09The entire crowd is barking like fang.
06:13Three, two, one!
06:16Kyle has said he actually is going to give Austin the lead because he wants the first Gladiator
06:21to hit him out of the gate.
06:24Lightning being patient, he has to stay in his zone.
06:27And actually, Kyle has the inside track.
06:29And Lightning connects on both, but Austin is going to get the outside edge and he'll
06:35have the early lead.
06:37Remember, it's two laps around the track.
06:39Whoever finishes first gets 10 points.
06:42Kyle trying to make it around the edge.
06:45Where you going?
06:47And fang nails him into the barrier.
06:49We're one lap in and all this is great for even Steven.
06:53Kyle continuing on.
06:55He's now got the lead over Austin, but he's got Lightning waiting for him.
06:59In his zone.
07:00Here comes Lightning.
07:02There's Kyle.
07:03Boom!
07:04Austin trailing by about 10 feet behind Kyle.
07:07Kyle trying to move in the inside.
07:09Austin going to the outside.
07:11Lightning and Austin.
07:13Double trouble.
07:14Fang is actually hanging out at the finish line.
07:17Saying, I am going to stop somebody's progress.
07:20Probably in many fewer words.
07:22Fang!
07:23Stops Kyle.
07:25Here comes Austin.
07:26Whoever crosses first gets 10 points.
07:30We got a three-car pileup.
07:35Kyle crosses first.
07:37He gets 10.
07:38Austin has 10 seconds to get across.
07:41And he does.
07:42He picks up five points.
07:46Great strategy used not only by both contenders, but fascinating developments out of the Gladiators as well.
07:53Who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who,
08:02who, who, who!
08:05Get this Kyle off of me!
08:08Crash Course was a tight one in the men's heat.
08:11Bang played defense right at the finish line,
08:14but Kyle squeezed through just a couple of ticks ahead of Austin.
08:19Both competitors getting points.
08:21Kyle takes it 10-5.
08:24Kyle Austin, come on over.
08:27Amazing.
08:28That looked exhausting.
08:30Can you describe how exhausting it actually is?
08:33Yeah.
08:35Yeah.
08:36Yeah.
08:37Enough said.
08:38It looked like when you went over on the second lap with Lightning,
08:41you actually pushed Lightning into Austin, which was a great move by you
08:45because it allowed you to get the lead and stay in the lead.
08:47Yeah, 100%.
08:48I mean, going into it, I had a couple different strategies,
08:51and that's the one I landed on.
08:52Ten points for you, five points for you, Austin.
08:55What was your strategy going in?
08:57Definitely to end up in first, but I realized when I was in first place,
09:00I knew I was going to come upon the Gladiators first,
09:03so I knew I was going to get blocked,
09:04and Kyle wasn't going to have an opportunity to pass,
09:06but, you know, when you're in there, it's so hard to think.
09:08You just got to keep it going,
09:09but the main thing is your legs start burning after one lap.
09:12What an amazing performance from one of our newest Gladiators, Lightning!
09:18I don't think I've ever seen a Gladiator make one sphere.
09:22look like two, because you were handling both of them basically at the same time.
09:27Once I seen both of them come around that corner,
09:28I just had to strike twice on them, and I don't miss the runner.
09:31That's the best part of the game.
09:32Love that.
09:34After Atlasphere, Kyle has ten points, Austin has five.
09:38That would be a meager two-and-a-half-second head start heading into the Eliminator,
09:42but there's still two more events to go.
09:44Plenty could change.
09:48All right!
09:49Get hyped for the contenders in our women's semifinal.
09:53Terry and Rebecca!
09:58Our circus performer, Rebecca Clemons, got that sweet scent of victory,
10:02and she's ready to feast.
10:05Surprise!
10:07I am incredibly grateful I got a second chance.
10:10I want to prove it to myself.
10:13I've played so many characters in performance world and in life world,
10:17and at this time, it feels like I'm playing myself,
10:19and that's really fun and refreshing.
10:21I would love to win.
10:22I would love to go as far as possible,
10:24but I've made some lifelong memories and done some really cool stuff,
10:28so I see a positive outcome no matter which way it goes.
10:33Who will take their second chance and run with it?
10:36Let's find out.
10:37Now meet the Gladiators looking to sideswipe them off course.
10:43It's Empire!
10:49This East Coast beast is 5'8 and 150 pounds of pure might,
10:54and with the bite she takes out of her opponents,
10:58maybe we should have called her the Big Apple.
11:01And making her American Gladiators debut.
11:06She does what her name says.
11:09She can't help it.
11:10Give our Gladiator Arena a welcome to Strikeout!
11:26Striker stands over 6'4 and ruled the hardwood with brute force.
11:31She knows what she wants and how to get it.
11:33Unfortunately for you, you're just in the way.
11:37Zero points.
11:39The thing is about to roll.
11:41Thomas, do your thing, sir.
11:45Contenders ready!
11:47Once again, with this new version of Atlasphere,
11:50one of these two is guaranteed 10 points.
11:55Gladiators ready!
11:58Empire will defend Zone 1 and Striker Zone 2.
12:02Ready to go!
12:03She's over 6'4.
12:05How the heck she fit in that thing, by the way?
12:073, 2, 1!
12:10Oh!
12:12Rebecca, the circus performer from San Diego, quick out of the gate.
12:18Empire's going to be the first Gladiator in Zone 1.
12:21Here she comes.
12:24Terry with a little problem.
12:25She connects with the barrier.
12:26Empire hits Rebecca.
12:29But Rebecca's got an opening to the side.
12:31And she's going to move forward.
12:34Here comes Striker.
12:36Boom!
12:38Rebecca's flying around in her sphere as she moves to the inside.
12:42Terry, now she's got an opening to the outside.
12:45The former homeless vet who grew up in Kalamazoo, Michigan,
12:48has drawn even with Rebecca.
12:50Rebecca trying to play a little defense there.
12:53One more lap to go.
12:55Whoever gets there first gets 10 points.
12:57If the next competitor gets here within the next 10 seconds,
13:01he'll pocket 5 points.
13:03Will Terry catch up to Rebecca?
13:05Will Rebecca hold her lead?
13:07Rebecca takes a shot from Empire.
13:11Terry holding the lead for the first time in the game.
13:13Can she take it home?
13:15Half a lap to go.
13:17Here comes Striker.
13:18Hello Terry, have a seat.
13:25Terry falling could cost her the game as Rebecca pulls ahead.
13:29First one past the finish line gets 10 points.
13:35Rebecca splinches the win.
13:37And Terry, she finishes 3 seconds back.
13:41She will pocket 5 points.
13:44It looks fun rolling around in those steel spheres.
13:47But my goodness, imagine their legs burning after two vicious laps
13:54and dealing with the gladiators.
13:56Good job.
13:56You did it. You did it.
14:00Good job, girl.
14:02Wow.
14:03Terry, Rebecca, come on over.
14:06Wow.
14:08I got to tell you, it was back and forth.
14:10When you guys were done, you both just flopped in your atlaspheres.
14:15How exhausting is Crash Course?
14:17Last time I did this, I had a hard time getting off that mat.
14:20And so this time I was like, Jerry, you got to kick it down.
14:24And so I was asking for that mat, but she got off before me,
14:27and it was like rumbling and tumbling up in there.
14:30Rebecca, did you feel like you were tumbling in your atlasphere?
14:33Yes, and I did. I absolutely did.
14:36So circus performer translates to Crash Course.
14:39Yeah, you know, as long as I'm contained in the ball, I'm good.
14:42I can roll like a hamster and come out real quick.
14:44We got a brand new gladiator in the building.
14:47Everybody show some love to Stryker.
14:52You are so tall.
14:53I thought that you were gonna have to hunch over in the sphere,
14:56but how does your height take advantage when it comes to working Crash Course?
15:01Using my body weight against somebody else's is just a huge advantage.
15:04Again, I weigh 192 pounds compared to most of these contenders at like 140, 130.
15:10So again, that's just a huge advantage that I have.
15:12I love it. And you know, I have to say, Empire, you were hitting hard out there,
15:17like trying to get a taxi during rush hour in New York City.
15:20It was almost impossible.
15:22It was more like smashing rats on the subway, but you know, they were good.
15:26They did what they had to do, but you know, I just did it better.
15:28I love it.
15:29Give it up for Terry and Rebecca.
15:33After Atlasphere, it's Rebecca leading Terry 10 to 5.
15:37That would be a two and a half second head start going into the eliminator.
15:40But of course, plenty could change with two events still to come.
15:45Are you fired up for our next game?
15:49It's the wall. Roxy, tell everybody how it goes.
15:53You know this one. With 60 seconds on the clock, contenders jet their way to the top of a climbing
15:59wall as a gladiator chases them.
16:01We're not monsters. They get a six-second head start.
16:06First place earns 10 points, and second earns 5 points. A caught contender gets none. It's the wall.
16:15Austin trying to take care of the special ladies in his life if he's able to get his hands on
16:20the 100 grand.
16:21His mom who's here, his girlfriend, and their two daughters.
16:26It felt amazing to win in front of, you know, all of my family that came out to support me.
16:31Let's go!
16:33I want to financially take care of, you know, my whole family.
16:36It would make my girls at home so happy for their daddy to bring home some money for all of
16:40them.
16:40Do you think I can win it?
16:41Yeah.
16:42I think so, too. Thank you, baby.
16:44You're welcome.
16:45I'm excited for everyone to learn a little bit more about me and, you know, support me on this journey.
16:50Being so close to victory, there's no way I'm gonna let this slip through my fingertips.
16:54I'll fight till the end. They can definitely count on that.
16:58Austin! Austin! Austin! Austin! Austin!
17:01Coming after Austin, it's the second time he's facing him, and this time, it's personal.
17:08He's the flirt that brings the hurt. I'm talking about Ace!
17:13At 6'3", 210 pounds, Ace is the Hercules of the arena.
17:18Soccer, football, and the wall are no match.
17:25And coming behind Kyle, the chaos-causing, rabble-rousing, mad scientist, it's Mayhem!
17:346'5", 240 pounds, his height makes him lethal. Mayhem is the reigning king of the wall, and he's not
17:41giving up the crown.
17:44This is my wall, Kyle.
17:47Buffery.
17:48All right, Thomas! Let's go!
17:52Contenders, ready!
17:54Both Austin and Kyle led going into their respective eliminators. They both know how valuable these points are.
18:02Gladiators, ready!
18:03Mayhem!
18:05Mayhem!
18:07Mayhem's undefeated on the wall, so Kyle better climb like his life depends on it.
18:12And Ace is locked in on Austin. No room for hesitation tonight.
18:173, 2, 1!
18:19And the semi-finalists are off and running. Gladiators, gonna be released after 6 seconds.
18:27Oh, whoa! Did you see the leap that Mayhem had?
18:31Austin's climbing to the side, trying to avoid Mayhem.
18:34Austin, Ace, they're entangled as well. And Kyle's showing tremendous strength.
18:40But he eventually gets dragged down by Mayhem. Austin trying to shake him loose.
18:45Get off me! Get off me!
18:46Kind of like that postal carrier when that little dog bothers him in the neighborhood.
18:51Look at the grip strength of Austin, but eventually he is gone.
18:57Meener contender lasted 30 seconds.
19:02Let's go, Ace!
19:06Gladiators flexing their muscles.
19:08Small ball, boy. Fastest and all the way up.
19:12Why not? Mayhem remains undefeated on the wall.
19:16They had a 6-second head start!
19:18They're 40 pounds right in there! Come on!
19:20This is what I do, man!
19:23Well, baby.
19:24What do we do, bruh?
19:26After the wall, things remain unchanged.
19:29Kyle stays at 10 points. Austin is at 5.
19:32That would still be a 2.5-second head start for Kyle going into the eliminator.
19:36Let's send things back down to The Miz and Roxy.
19:40All right!
19:42Moving it over to the female semifinalists.
19:45Rebecca and Terry look ready to play.
19:47Terry Bell, former homeless vet, still carries with her that military mindset.
19:53I am really proud of the work that I did in the military.
19:57And it has inspired me to become a missionary.
20:01My first mission trip was to Haiti.
20:03I was able to teach in a school that we had built.
20:07I got to speak to 2,000 youth about believing in themselves.
20:12Health and wellness changed my life, and I want to be able to recreate that in somebody else.
20:18It's your mindset. It's your mindset.
20:22Winning American Gladiators, getting the $100,000 would be such an amazing thing for me.
20:28Going to be able to help so many people around the world have access to health and wellness centers.
20:33That's my heart's desire.
20:35Going up against the Gladiators, they better watch out and make sure that they stay on their feet.
20:41Because I'm coming straight at you.
20:48As for the Gladiators that will be chasing them, on Rebecca, one of the arena's most celebrated and feared Gladiators.
20:55She'll leave you breathless, and not in a good way.
20:58It's Crush!
20:59The people love her at 5'6'' and 170 pounds of solid muscle.
21:06Crush is as cuddly as a boulder and just as hard to move.
21:12All over Terry, returning to wreak havoc, it's Stryker!
21:20This team of female Gladiators ain't playing around, especially Crush.
21:26Oh, Bailey's got a crush on her!
21:29She's been untouchable all season long on the wall.
21:34No one's even made a dent.
21:37Oh, you like that? You guys like that?
21:41What?
21:42It's Crush climbing after Rebecca, and Stryker climbing after Terry.
21:47Contenders, ready!
21:49First time on the wall for Rebecca and Terry, who remember, has replaced an injured Jordan Sheffs in the semifinals.
21:57Ready, Anders, ready!
22:00Crush trying to improve to 4-0 on the wall this season.
22:053, 2, 1!
22:09Terry, sincere military.
22:11I want you on that wall!
22:12I need you on that wall!
22:14Rebecca off to a nice start.
22:16The Gladiators have been released.
22:18Stryker, her 6'3'' frame, misstep for her.
22:22And that'll give Terry a little breathing room.
22:24Rebecca, two-thirds of the way up the wall!
22:27She can smell the 10 points!
22:29In the meantime, Stryker!
22:35She strikes back, brings down our former homeless vet.
22:39Let's go, baby!
22:42How about the job?
22:43Over by Rebecca, celebrating the big top, and she smashes the button for 10 points.
22:49She's the first contender to defeat Crush this season!
22:54And looks down and says, I am the one!
22:58That's all right, guys!
23:00Rebecca!
23:04Congratulations!
23:05By the way, Crush is undefeated on the wall.
23:08That's the first time that she did not catch a contender.
23:10How do you feel?
23:11I am grateful for her being my competitor, because it put a fire under my butt to get up as
23:15fast as I could.
23:15Do you feel like the circus translates to the wall?
23:19Yeah, I like things where I can use my hands and grab on.
23:21So, that felt good.
23:22You sped up this thing.
23:24Yeah, I've got to get every single point I can.
23:26Well, great job.
23:27Let's send it down to Roxy Diaz, who's with Terry and Stryker.
23:32What a performance.
23:34I feel like you hesitated a little bit before jumping onto the wall.
23:38What was going through your mind?
23:39It goes as far right as possible, because I knew that she was definitely very tall,
23:43and I wanted to get up as far as I could, but it played out a little bit different than
23:48I intended.
23:49Hi, Stryker.
23:51Hey, how you doing?
23:51I told her, if she wasn't a gladiator, she's a model, because she's that beautiful.
23:55How was the wall for you?
23:57I did think she had me for a second.
23:59Once I slipped, I thought she was going to run up, and I was out of it, but we came
24:03back.
24:03Phenomenal job, Stryker.
24:05Give it up for Rebecca, Terry, Stryker, and Crush!
24:11After Rebecca's impressive performance on the wall, she has a 20-5 lead over Terry.
24:17That would be a seven-and-a-half-second head start for Rebecca heading into the Eliminator.
24:29I'm so fired up for this event that I didn't even get any sleep last night.
24:34Also, because you can hear the bull snoring from, like, five miles away.
24:38Very much so.
24:39It's the event that has everyone on the edge of their seat.
24:42Roxy, give us a lowdown on the edge.
24:46The edge is a sky-high balancing act against the gladiators,
24:51where contenders have 60 seconds to run over a web of narrow beams.
24:5730 feet off the ground.
24:59Now, each time you cross the other side, you get two points.
25:03Reach 10, that's a perfect score.
25:06But if you miss your footing, you go down.
25:11First up on the edge, it's Austin.
25:14Hoping to add 10 precious points to his total.
25:17In the prelims, he faced this gladiator on collision.
25:20Now he's back, and sharper than ever, it's Steele!
25:24At 5'10", 205 pounds, this pro wrestler and bodybuilder turns muscle into dominance.
25:31Steele's tear-down tackle is legendary on the edge.
25:42All right, Thomas! Let's see how this plays out!
25:49Contender, ready!
25:51Austin thinks his skill set is perfect for the edge.
25:54He's all about quickness, agility, and balance.
25:57Come on up, let's do that!
26:00Hey!
26:01Gladiator, ready!
26:03Steele looking for a reprieve.
26:05He gave up the max 10 points on the edge in the prelims to Michael Moraglia.
26:103, 2, 1!
26:13Last chance for Austin to score points before the Eliminator.
26:17He's going straight up the middle.
26:18Let's check out that quickness.
26:20The guy who works in motion caps.
26:22A little stutter step.
26:23He's going back left!
26:24He's got some space!
26:25And he's going to make it for two points!
26:28He had Steele's back turned!
26:30Oh no!
26:31Steele!
26:31Whoa!
26:37What a tackle by Steele!
26:43It looked like Austin had a breakaway.
26:46Instead he got slammed into the side pillar and the 152 pounder got wrapped up in a steel cage.
26:54Oh my goodness!
26:56How many fingers am I holding up?
26:57I almost got split in half right there, but you know I'm durable.
26:59I can take it.
27:00Dude!
27:01You nearly knocked his head off steel.
27:09I couldn't have been gentler than what I did up there.
27:13Some people are saying hit of the season.
27:15I don't know.
27:17But just know the only thing that's hitting harder than those moves is this jawline.
27:22Ooh!
27:23Roxy, look at that.
27:25I can't.
27:26Give it up!
27:27Give it up!
27:29For Steele and Austin.
27:32Now stepping onto the edge, it's Kyle.
27:35And right on his tracks when his light's on.
27:39It's lights out for you.
27:40It's Neon!
27:42Neon's 6'2", 220 pounds of star power.
27:46And last time on the edge, he put his D1 football skills on full display.
27:51He brings the heat every single snap.
27:55Light work, baby. Light work.
27:57Neon, the author of the best hit of the prelims when he sent Bobby Levine flying off the edge.
28:08Rennie to Rennie!
28:14Contender Rennie!
28:16Kyle has told us how much winning the $100,000 would mean to him as he is a single father
28:23of three-year-old Maverick.
28:25Three!
28:26Two!
28:27One!
28:28Kyle Bernier came off the bench during the prelims as an injury replacement.
28:33Oh, beautiful fake and spin move for two against Neon!
28:38He bursts off the left side for two more!
28:41Does he have two more?
28:46Oh!
28:49Just before he nets six, Neon stopped him right before the goal line.
28:54In a touchdown saving tackle, Kyle finishes with four points, but he darn near had his mustache knocked off his.
29:05Kyle!
29:07Man, if you could have just stayed on and Neon fell off, you could have had max points.
29:13Was there any chance of you staying on after that push?
29:15I don't know, he's a big dude. Once he gets a hold of you, everything's gotta be perfect up there.
29:21That spin move you put on Neon up there was actually quite impressive, and you played football.
29:26I know that got under your skin just a little bit.
29:30Hey, listen, hats off to Kyle, man. He gave me some work in Powerball, but I live by my own
29:34set of rules, okay?
29:35And rule number three, style is non-negotiable.
29:37You had the juice for a second there, but I got the sauce.
29:42Give it up for Neon and Kyle!
29:48After three events, Kyle finishes with 14 points, Austin has seven.
29:54That means Kyle the Daddyator has just a three and a half second head start going into the Eliminator.
30:01Rebecca is up first on the edge as we continue our women's semifinals.
30:06She's hoping to put a tenth spot up here.
30:09Gonna be tough with this Gladiator picking up her scent.
30:12You can run, but that just makes it more fun.
30:16It's Huntress!
30:18Now feast your eyes on Huntress.
30:21Five, six, 140 pounds of raw speed and power, this track star can outsmart and outrun the best of them.
30:32Contender Riddick!
30:34You would think a circus star like Rebecca would have the upper hand here.
30:38Well, let's see if she flies through the air with the greatest of ease.
30:42Gladiator Riddick!
30:45Three, two, one!
30:49Rebecca just embarrassed Crush on the wall.
30:53Oh, slow, deliberate.
30:55Hey, this ain't an afternoon walk.
30:57Gotta get going, Rebecca.
30:58She, it looks like she, Huntress, what are you doing?
31:02That was like a free two.
31:05Remember, if she wins the 100 grand, might buy into a circus.
31:10She's got that 25 foot bus that she lives on in San Diego.
31:13She's gotta get Busting now.
31:17Oh, she's got a way around.
31:20She makes a break for it, and she gets two more points.
31:24She's got four.
31:25Rebecca, very measured, but running out of time.
31:28Remember, she's had five knee surgeries, a hip surgery.
31:31Her doctor suggested having brain surgery down the road.
31:35I have no idea what that was at the end.
31:37Maybe she's just trying to alleviate any sort of physicality with Huntress.
31:42Can't wait to hear her strategy when she talks to Miz and Roxy.
31:48Rebecca, I'm trying to understand your mindset,
31:51because you were really taking your time.
31:54What was going on up there?
31:55I've had a lot of surgeries, so that was staying safe,
31:58but still trying to play the edge a little bit.
32:00So, you were scared up there.
32:02I would think, as a circus performer, you used to heights.
32:05Uh, heights is not an issue.
32:07The issue is having an incredible athlete tackle you off of a ledge.
32:11So, the heights were not the issue.
32:13Huntress, you had a dancer, because I'd be scared of you, too, up there.
32:17For a second, I was like, does she know there's only 60 seconds?
32:21But, hey, her strategy, and I just was there to play the game.
32:25Give it up for Rebecca and Huntress!
32:30Terry is up next on the edge.
32:32Oh! Gotta get this, let's go!
32:35And if the 30-foot drop wasn't intimidating enough,
32:38she's facing her Powerball nemesis from the prelims.
32:43It's Hurricane!
32:45Hurricane is a force on the edge.
32:48Relentless, unshakable.
32:49With a 225-pound deadlift and a fierce competitive streak on the edge,
32:54she's barely let anyone score on her the last two times out.
33:03Thomas!
33:04Let's go!
33:05Contender Riddos!
33:07One last chance for Terry, this former homeless vet,
33:11to notch more points before the Eliminator.
33:15Gladiator Riddos!
33:17Hurricane has earned her PhD in the edge.
33:20Two previous times, no points allowed.
33:25Three, two, one!
33:28Last event before the Eliminator for Terry.
33:32Taking it slow and steady using her former military precision.
33:37Uh-oh, locking eyes with Hurricane.
33:39That doesn't sound fun.
33:40Now breaking to the right.
33:42Uh-oh, Hurricane's got her arms on her!
33:46See ya, Terry!
33:52Terry done with zero points.
33:55Terry's fake, uh-uh-uh.
33:58As Terry found out, Hurricane was built for the edge.
34:02Her streak of not allowing any points continued.
34:06Hurricane, another dub, and allowing zero points to a competitor.
34:10After the edge, Rebecca has a dominant 24-5 lead.
34:15That gives Rebecca a massive nine-and-a-half-second head start in the Eliminator.
34:20But do not count Terry out.
34:24It all comes down to this.
34:26Roxy, set the stage for...
34:28The Eliminator.
34:30The Eliminator.
34:32Eight, nine-part mega-challenge that's exhausting to watch, let alone run.
34:39It's hurdles, it's ropes, it's monkey bars, a trapeze, a pesky cargo net, a zipline, a tricky balance beam, and
34:48of course, a contender's worst nightmare.
34:51The Travelator.
34:53If you get through all that, then it's a rope swing to the finish and into the finals.
35:03This one has it all.
35:06An Eliminator rematch between two incredible redemption stories who's battled back from elimination to get here.
35:14And it's Rebecca's third eliminated.
35:17No second chances now.
35:19This is it.
35:20Only one moves on to the finals.
35:23Thomas, take it away.
35:25Contenders ready!
35:28A lifelong dream for both of these women.
35:31Rebecca Clemons, Terry Bell, the circus star against the military vet, who will take their second chance and run with
35:41it all the way to the final.
35:43Three, two, one!
35:47Rebecca Clemons, very, very good in the early part of the Eliminator.
35:53Her circus background, she is wonderful with ropes and obviously on the trapeze.
35:58After nine and a half seconds, here goes Terry Bell.
36:00Ouch! She hit her head!
36:02A little frantic out of the gate, but she knows she's gotta make up some time.
36:06Look at Rebecca.
36:08Poetry in motion on the monkey bars and the trapeze.
36:11And now the cargo net where she was the best out of all women and men in the prelims.
36:18Terry Bell just getting across the monkey bars and now unlocks the trapeze.
36:23She's gotta get going to make up some ground.
36:25Rebecca getting to the top as Terry just hits the cargo net.
36:29Nice jump!
36:31Feels like she's making up some distance.
36:34Here goes Rebecca down the zip line, but still ahead the balance beam and the travelator.
36:41Rebecca eyes the balance beam, can't use her hands, and she falls off.
36:47Does that open the door for Terry Bell, who's just getting to the top of the cargo net.
36:52Rebecca taking her time.
36:56Gets across.
36:57Now just the travelator.
36:59Her first time in the eliminator, she fell three times before finally getting up.
37:04Here's cry number one.
37:06Pushing. Pushing.
37:08The woman who has had five knee surgeries.
37:10A hip surgery.
37:13She is off to the finals.
37:15The dream for a hundred grand still alive.
37:18How are you feeling?
37:20I'm so happy.
37:21You're so happy? Yeah, you should be.
37:23You're going to the finals.
37:25I wanted that so bad.
37:26And in the meantime, Terry Bell.
37:29Pushing.
37:31Pushing.
37:33The arena goes nuts.
37:38And Terry Bell's season will end.
37:41But not before she says,
37:43Eliminator, I beat you.
37:47That's what I'm talking about.
37:48Never give up.
37:50How you feeling?
37:51Tired.
37:54I definitely came here to win.
37:57That didn't happen.
37:59But I'm blessed to be a child of God.
38:03And I love this country.
38:05And I'm just glad I can represent.
38:08Rebecca, you were eliminated.
38:10And now you're going to the finals.
38:13What does this say about second chances?
38:15This was not only for me and for everyone I love, but for everyone who needs inspiration of if you
38:21have an opportunity, seize it.
38:23Give it up for Rebecca.
38:25And give it up for Terry.
38:31Rebecca Clemons is headed to the finals and she has earned a shot at the $100,000.
38:37Now let's shift gears to our men's semifinals.
38:39Here comes Austin and Kyle.
38:45Kyle enters with 14.
38:47Austin enters the Eliminator with seven points.
38:50That means Kyle gets a three and a half second head start in the Eliminator.
38:54It's a modest lead, but when the stakes are this high, you'll take any advantage you can get.
39:00Let's send it on over to The Miz and Roxy.
39:02Will Kyle's Dad of the Year energy power him through to the finals?
39:07Or will Austin win this one for Mama?
39:10Let's find out.
39:12Austin Luna will be facing a three and a half second starting deficit.
39:17100 grand very much on his mind.
39:20And what a remarkable story.
39:23Kyle Vernier started this tournament as an alternate and has continued to impress here in the semifinals.
39:30Austin's got his work cut out for it.
39:33Contenders ready!
39:423, 2, 1!
39:45Kyle's three and a half second head lead starts now, quickly through the hurdles.
39:49Here comes Austin, the man who works in the world of motion.
39:53Cats, he's quick and has gotten up to the rope.
39:56But Kyle already on the monkey bars.
39:58Look at the stretch!
40:00Going two at a time!
40:01Now on over to the trapeze.
40:03Austin, he's got to cut into this time.
40:06To the cargo net.
40:07This could be a great equalizer.
40:09But Kyle, working it.
40:11This is the part where really it caught Austin in the preliminary.
40:16He's doing it two at a time, but Kyle, first up, and he hits the zip line.
40:21Just the balance beam and the travelator standing in between the former alternate and a berth in the final.
40:29Look at this.
40:30Man, that was easy.
40:33Oh, he has to get sent back.
40:35He didn't quite complete the balance beam.
40:38Has that opened the door for Austin Liu?
40:41Austin falls down.
40:44Here goes Kyle.
40:46Off the travelator.
40:47And he is...
40:52Off to the finals!
40:54Welcome to the finals, Kyle!
40:57$100,000 is up for GLAMS!
41:01You could be an American Gladiator legend!
41:05How do you feel?
41:07Man, I really, I really wanted that.
41:10I could tell.
41:11Yeah.
41:12That really needed an opportunity.
41:15Getting called in was nothing short of a miracle.
41:18So yeah, I'm taking this pretty serious.
41:21That's all I gotta say.
41:23I would just like to say, as a fellow father, Kyle, all the best in the competition.
41:27Everyone's a tough competitor, but if anybody can do it, it's definitely you.
41:33The bracket is set!
41:35It took blood, sweat, and serious grit to get here, but our finalists are locked loaded and ready for battle.
41:43Who will rise to glory, take home $100,000, and become the first American Gladiators champion in nearly two decades?
41:54Join us next time to find out. Until then, I'm Roxy Diaz.
41:59And for Chris Rose, I'm The Miz. See you next time for the American Gladiators finale!
42:05Good Eē Animation!
42:15Its Queen for the Day!
42:16Can you give me a performance by Daniel Martin.
42:28He asked her as his wife for the day.
42:30What a notable difference between your parents and your parents and
42:34then was the only discipline and step in the course of the cake.
42:34What is the tale of Laura?
42:35There ain't no quit in me.
42:37I put the thunder in the throne.
42:44I'm the one in the arena.
42:48You'll remember the name.
42:52I'm on the rise up.
42:54I'm putting it all in, all in, all.
42:57I'm the one in the arena.
43:01I'm the one remembering my name.
43:06I'm the one in the arena.
