Um, no point running Gladiator's with this build, energy management really isn't an issue.
Otherwise, good, solid DPS.
Maybe consider swapping Agonizing Chop out for Disrupting Chop for a more effective interrupt. Okay, you lose some damage, but you gain an unconditional interrupt that has the added benefit of disabling a skill for a considerable length of time.

I give it an 8 out of 10
I would go:
[card]enraging charge[/card][card]flail[/card][card]cleave[/card][card]dismember[/card][card]agonizing chop[/card][card]executioner's strike[/card][card]healing signet[/card][card]rebirth[/card]
16 axe
11 tact
9 strength
HS for keeping pressure of the monks and heals between bouts. Good DPS build. (and switch the armour to +hp or armour)

Cleave is crap, go get eviscerate. You now have a deep wound, drop dismember for something else. Flail is garbage on an axe, use a different IAS.

Why wouldn't flail be even better on an axe, as axes rely more on energy than, say, swords, and can thus be maintained more easily?

several changes id make are (1st being most important-last the least)
1. (a.) replace cleave with eviscerate, then (b.) dismember with axe rake (if that's the one that cripples) - especialy if u use flail, no point using enraging charge if they can just run off as soon as theyv been caught
((b) could be changed if it's pve)
2. replace flail with beserker stance - gives u a gd adrenaline pool if used correctly
3. replace rebirth with res sig if ur gona use this in pvp, although rebirth may be better for use in pve depending on circumstances and team strategy
self-heal if thers no monk or if monk's likely to run low on energy
Some changes i would make, might not be something for everyone though.

im pretty sure theres more sword skills using energy than there are axe skills
most e.skills-swords
then-hammers
least-axes
could be wrong about last two tho since i hardly ever use a hammer

Never! Berserker Stance fails miserably.
You can't use it to fire off attacks (no spiking for j00!)
And it can't give you 100% IAS coverage.
I'd even recommend Flurry over Berserker...
Oh, and Enraging Charge gives you adrenaline without completely sucking balls.
OP: Decent build, though I'd probably drop an attack skill or two for utility, condition removal etc.
Cleave vs Eviscerate is really personal preference IMO, I'm an Eviscerate man meself, as it allows me to condense my bar and bring other skills.
Whatever
