The depth of this year's U.S. women's figure skating team is one of the reasons the Americans could dominate the podium at the Milan-Cortina Olympics.

United States figure skating trio of Amber Glenn, Alysa Liu and Isabeau Levito don't take the ice for a few hours.

Enter the “Blade Angels,” the American trio of Glenn, Liu and Levito. They are aiming to put an American on the podium for the first time since 2006, when Sasha Cohen won silver. If one of them wins gold, it’ll be the first for the Americans since Sarah Hughes won in 2002 in Salt Lake City.

The "Life of a Showgirl" artist is behind a brand new video highlighting the figure skating women of Team USA, set to take the ice Tuesday.

No American woman has won an individual figure skating medal since Sasha Cohen’s silver in 2006. Sarah Hughes won gold and Michelle Kwan claimed bronze four years before that. The Blade Angels have only one combined Olympic appearance between them — Liu in 2022 — but together, they’ve amassed an impressive array of world and national championships.

While it doesn't seem like we'll ever see the "Blade" reboot on the screen, there are tantalizing clues around that make what Marvel had in store sound amazing.

CORTINA D'AMPEZZO, Italy (AP) — Ami Nakai and Japanese teammate Kaori Sakamoto upstaged Alysa Liu and the rest of the “Blade Angels” from the U.S. to take the lead after the short program in the women’s figure skating competition at the Milan Cortina Olympics on Tuesday.
