If you love a gore fest and are a fan of historical warriors, this may be the show for you. Deadliest Warrior is Spike TV’s latest attempt at reality television. In this series, two of history’s most dangerous and notorious warriors are pitted against each other in computer generated one on one combat.

Experts from each art who have backgrounds in the weaponry and history of these warriors are selected to help run various tests using multiple forms of the latest cutting edge technology. At the end of these tests, the data collected is inputted in a computer where a simulated battle takes place and the winner of the contest is decided based on 1000 computer generated fights.

So far, Spike has released two episodes successful episodes. The first pitted the Apache versus Gladiator while the second pitted the Samurai versus Viking. So far, my predictions have been perfect with both the Apache and Samurai beating their respective competition. I’m on the verge of going 3-0 today if my pick takes out his latest rival.

Tonight’s episode features the spartan versus the ninja. Growing up I was a huge fan of the ninja, but against a spartan, I don’t think he’ll stand a chance. As much as I love my Asian ancestry, I have to go with the Spartan to win this one. The ninja is definitely more stealthy and deceptive, but in one and one combat, I think the spartan will just overwhelm a ninja with his strength and selection of weapons. Who do you think is the deadliest warrior? I guess we’ll just have to wait and see!

Showtime: Tuesdays at 10pm. On Guam: Wednesdays at 10pm.
