Entertainment Weekly is reporting that former WWE star Chris Jericho has signed on to host a new Syfy series called “Robot Combat League.” The show will debut next year on 2/26.
“The action resembles a real-life version of last year’s hit movie Real Steel, with large menacing robots pounding away at each other in a satisfying shower of sparks and gushing hydraulic fluid. And just like in the film, the ‘bots will be controlled by shadow-boxing operators whose movements are translated into metal-on-metal punches.”
