Answer: ESKIMO NEBULA

Teams spun the decidedly non-random Wheel of Death to enter various virtual regions of space, each with its own preferred form of fatality. This Wheel of Death matched the one that came in the board game. Each Wheel space contained a symbol, some of which matched puzzles. These puzzles' answers matched as follows:
Each space on the Wheel is a phrase that contains all five vowels (AEIOU), exactly once. Each puzzle answer is a word or phrase that contains all five vowels once, plus one extra vowel. Per the "breathe" instructions in the center of the Wheel, for each space on the wheel, find the vowel repeated in the answer phrase and take the next letter. So for example, in PORE JUD IS DAID, the extra vowel is I. The next letter in PUFFERFISH ORGANS is S.
Starting with that space, you'll get S_P_RM_NS_DV_RS_R__L_MP. This is the phrase SUPERMAN'S ADVERSARIAL IMP, without vowels. So the villain's name is MR. MXYLPTLK. Saying his name backwards doesn't work (Harold already tried that). However, every space on the Wheel of Death that did not have a puzzle associated with it lines up with a vowel in "Superman's Adversarial Imp". Applying the same process as before (e.g., "Souvenir Flag" lines up with the U in SUPERMAN, and the letter after U is V) starting at Rabid Tongue gets BUY A VOWEL.

So teams could call in the name MR. MXYZPTLK and ask to buy a vowel. This cost them 250 play-dollarbucks, as would be expected from the 3009 version of Wheel of Fortune. In return, they get a big O, which highly resembled the Wheel of Fortune wheel.

Overlaying the Wheel of Fortune wheel and the Wheel of Death showed that:

Spaces on the wheel are in one of the 7 rainbow colors. Using that as an index into the answers for each space on the wheel of death reveals the location of Harold, the ESKIMO NEBULA.
