Les champions extraterrestres ont depuis belle lurette damé le pion aux humains, trop tendres pour leur résister. Steve Armstrong, un jeune colosse amoureux fermement décidé à devenir un valeureux gladiateur, accepte, pour les beaux yeux d'une organisatrice, de se mesurer à toutes sortes de monstres. Il entend ainsi mettre un terme à sa paisible existence, passée en compagnie de Shorty, un humanoïde doté de quatre bras qui s'ennuie ferme, loin de sa femme et de ses trente-huit enfants.
