Overkill is an Aethran.
In the 2099 handbook they hype the coming of the incredible Overkill in 2100. It says on the 2nd page of the 2100 handbook in Overkill's bio, that he was given a cleansing before entering the GWF. It also states he has the highest Aethran virtues a fighter can have.
The reason he went 10 years before another Cleansing is because Spike, Brute and Massacre were punishing him for beating them in the Civil War (GWF Files 2)
Nothing about not being from Aethra.

Thunder and Overkill are the best Aethrans, I also liked Vengeance as well.
I can't wait to get Disaster by the way all of you are talking ...

Vengeance is the Best. Aethran. Ever.
I'm convinced that, as someone said ages ago, that the only crime Vengeance ever committed was not being a muscle-bound freak. Seriously, he's owned Disaster ever with his downgrade. He's dominated nearly every feud he was in, even giving Paragon psychological scars during the GWF vs CPC war.
Vengeance is it for me, EASY.
Though I like Thunder and Spike more.

Why's it even a debate. He may not of been a P1 or whatever like Disaster...or maybe he was..I don't know to be honest. But Spike is clearly the greatest headbanger of all time.

Spike in his prime was one of the three or four most dominant wrestlers I ever had in my fed. Disaster has a hell of a card, but Spike was able to be the man in the era of Star Warrior, Wolf, Thantos, Chaos, Alpha Force, and the Matador of M83. Those were dominant wrestlers before everyone had loaded up stats, and Spike managed to do more than hold his own. However, for the sake of sheer domination over peers, no one can touch Brute and Massacre's domination of tag team wrestling.

Yeah, that is mainly why i asked. I saw he was lnot listed in the post you made on the old board.
What I would like to know is: why aren't more P1's sent our way?

I don't know if there is a "BEST" Aethran...they are all very good at what they do...Tom has made it so that each one, even though they are basically "head banging power guys" is unique in their own way. Massacre and Brute were the orginals and were so far past every other team in the early years it isn't funny. At one point I had them wreslting singles and Massacre put on the best set of matches versus Wolf and Thantos that I can remeber. Spike was destined to be awesome and ifyou ask me he was the 1st "stacked" card...he was awesome compared to anyone else from that time period. Bring in Mayhem, who I think may have been the most underrated of the bunch. He was the most controversial for a time and he ALWAYS found his way into my title picture. I loved his "psycho" attitude and the way he absolutely abused his body to win. I absolutely loved him. Vengeance was a shock to the system, but he was still a head banger...just in a difference sense, but he kicked but too. Thunder might be the best all-around tallented Gladiator because he didn't rely on overpowering opponents...he was stronger then most, but he is also faster then most...a deadly combination, especially for a Gladiator. Overkill...a machine in the mold of Brute...pure tag team BRAUN! Malice was Spike's first protege and it showed...he was well on his way to singles stardom, when he took over the tag team division with Overkill...Disaster, he is trouble...another in the mold of Spike but he has a mean streak that Spike didn't have...almost a bit on the sadistic side like Vengeance. I really want to see if the Transevolution has any long term affects on him...or did his cleansing "cure" him of any? So who is best? I don't know...I think they are all awesome...if you put them in a tournament, you would likely get a differnt winner each time. The question is...are you ready for the next generation of Gladiator? They are coming and how much do you want to bet they rule the Tag division...People are going to fear the Gladiators again in 2119...  |

It would be really cool if the Transevolver and the Cleansing had some multiplying power effect, similar to what happened with Wolf. It would be evne coller to have Disaster develop a psychosis due to this......
I was thinking that the new Glad tag team could be more balanced in the mold of Thunder.
But I sure would miss a "true" headbanger team.
