The American Gladiator: Wesley “2 Scoops” Berry
Sunday brought a wonderful set of circumstance for me – long story short I was reminded about someone I should have never forgotten about, that man being Mr. Wesley “2 Scoops” Berry. It wasn’t WWE or UFC or boxing that made American Gladiators obsolete, it was 2 Scoops – the man who put every single one of them to shame, set records and saved babies from burning buildings along the way (that third fact has yet to be fact checked). But hold up – it’s time to stop being polite and start being real – yes, a few years after his peak the ol’ scooper was sentenced for 10-20 for his contribution in a robbery, but that’s like bringing up James Brown’s later years when remembering the man’s entire life…it just sours the soup, y’know.
So take a few moments for 2 Scoops and watch the man do what he did best. And as 2 Scoops would have wanted, you had best give 11..120% when watching these videos! And for those interested, I’ve transcribed his celebration rap which he performed after annihilating both Great Britain’s contestant and The Eliminator record.
The 2 Scoops Celebration Rap
“Faith is strong but I came a long way / I represent the all of the USA / I’d like to thank Phil because he’s a great guy / and he will always be on the US side.” (it should be noted that Phil was in fact not on the US side…he was from Great Britain…and he probably wasn’t that great of a guy)

YES! 2 scoops is a god among men, it makes me wonder what extraordinarily insance circumstances he must have been in for him to have actually been caught by the police in that robbery. Because I’m pretty sure he’s made out of magic.
The legendary saga of 2 scoops continues…I am part of a ministry where I go to San Quentin prison monthly and play basketball with a select few of the inmates. I had heard a rumor that one of the guys on the inmate team, who introduced himself to me as “Preacher” or “2 Scoops” was an American Gladiator. So just for fun, I tried to find him on the internet which led me to your site. All this to say that Wesley “2 Scoops” Berry is alive and well and still displaying his crazy atheletic ability for others to enjoy. He is now called Preacher as he has fully given his life over to Jesus Christ and misisters to other troubled inmates while serving out his remaining sentence. Thanks for posting these videos – I told him about them today and he was quite excited!
Jimmy Chitwood! you are the man for finding these!!!!!!!
i think he’s an absolute cock, typical arrogant american!
oh my life i can’t believe 2 scoops is a criminal, i’m watching him on tv right now, he was a legend
