Prime Video reveals American Gladiators trailer<\/h2>\n

The new trailer offers a better look at the rebooted competition series, including the updated Arena, returning events, and the new lineup of Gladiators.<\/p>\n

Prime Video is mixing old and new with the format. Classic events such as Joust, Powerball, Hang Tough, and The Wall are all part of the reboot. The series also introduces new events including The Ring and Collision.<\/p>\n

The setup remains familiar. Amateur male and female contenders from across the country enter the Arena to take on 16 Gladiators. At the end of the competition, one man and one woman will each win $100,000 and the title of American Gladiator Champion.<\/p>\n

Jelly Roll provides the theme song<\/h2>\n

One of the bigger additions is the music.<\/p>\n

The trailer features \u201cRise Up,\u201d the official theme song for the series from Jelly Roll. Prime Video says the track is an Amazon Music Original tied to the launch of the reboot.<\/p>\n

That gives the show another big promotional push as Prime Video leans on both nostalgia and a recognizable current name to help sell the return of American Gladiators.<\/p>\n
