Steve Austin's Broken Skull Challenge (2014– ) User Reviews

Positive review

[KingMushCharva · 9/10 · 29 August 2019]

Watched most of the episodes and can honestly say it is one of the best game shows that runs at such a high caliber of contestants.

Some of the contestants such as Hunter are just straight up savage, their cockyness is immense and is always good to see it crushed by a quiet yet confident opponent. However for Hunter, he knows he's the best and acts it.

Shame there hasn't been any new episodes for a while.

The nature of the show is kind of inspiring just to get up from your back side and exercise.

I believe it's better than the ninja warrior as it's real tough men and women going head to head.

Surprisingly good

A reality show pitting people against each other in feats of strength, often allowing wrestling the opponent to win. This combat stance is one I've yet to see on a show like this. I like it. I saw a guy get thrown to the ground and he landed wrong on his arm causing his elbow to bend the wrong way. I've only seen a few episodes but so far they've had different challenges on each one.

Great Entertainment

Here in the UK,we get lots of trashy American TV shows and upon seeing that Steve Austin was hosting,i assumed it would be a comedy as WWF/American wrestling over here is a joke/novelty......watching all those male/female contestants take on the Skull Buster is a joy.considering some of the egos that grace the BS ranch,its a wonder anything else can squeeze in....when someone wins without being a muscle/meat head and is humble,its a pleasure to watch,its also a pleasure to watch the others get the thumbs down-despite their arrogance.

Stone Cold Steve Austin and some mean Sumb*tches

It's reality TV without the BS. No sad sob story. No videos of the families and all that nonsense. For half an hour, some self-declared tough guys (women included) go head to head to decide which one among them is the strongest, the fastest, the craziest... Winner get 10,000 dollars and then some.

It's fun. The people are from a wide selection - police, army, navy, marines... cross-fitters, gym owners, fitness trainers, MMA fighters, wrestlers, footballers, housewives and accountants, and some other jacked up peeps - and they all give it there all, for pride and money.

And then there's Steve Austin hosting it all in his gloriously redneck way on his ranch with broken skulls lying around for decoration. This is at least 50% of the fun.

Great show but matching very poor.

I watch this show all the time. It is usually great but when they make "The best of the best" episodes it is not so good. Matching contestants in pairs is very poor. It looks like they match them so certain people go through. You can tell straight away who will win. For example Hunter always competes against somebody much smaller and not good and then they match 2 best ones Tommy and Ian so one of them gets eliminated and Hunter has less competition. It spoils all the fun and makes you angry... But maybe that is what they want with the show and Hunter HAS to win... It looks set up more and more with each episode. And from experience - if you dont know y - its for the money. I'm losing respect for the show.

Good competition - clean up the language a little

Love the show. Have not missed an episode. Steve left season 5 with a hint of what 6 might bring. Well, here it is the end of August and I'm still anxiously waiting for a new episode. Absolutely love, love, Hunter's confidence. Think he'll be reigning champion for a long, long time (at least if Steve can keep the show active). Too bad there's not a second place prize. I like Steve, but as a christian, I wish he'd clean up his language just a little. I watch some of the other competitions which use fancy equipment, bright lights, audiences, fancy interviews, etc. Steve's show is just down and dirty hard work. So keep his show on!!
