## Events

In addition to all of the events from the previous series (Duel, Gauntlet, Hang Tough, Collision, The Ring, Powerball, The Wall, The Edge and The Eliminator), some new events are introduced on the second series of Gladiators.
Following events were added to the roster:
* Atlaspheres, which returns from the 1990s version. In the event, the contenders are inside large metal cages, or "spheres" and try to gain points by crossing different score pods on the arena floor, while two Gladiators try to prevent this inside their own spheres.
* Crash Course is a modification of Atlaspheres, where the contenders must race around the arena while simultaneously being pursuit by the Gladiators, trying to catch the contenders in their own spheres, before these reach the finish line.
* Unleash is a new game of tag, where the contender must make it around the arena floor, and grab a "G" flag from the top of a podium, while a Gladiator is "Unleashed" and starts a pursuit behind them.
As the result of fan feedback from the previous series, the Gauntlet received some major upgrades for this series. An additional fifth zone/Gladiator was added, and a new "shield" weapon resembling the shape of a claw or bucket was introduced.

| Second of the heats. The contenders for the heat are: Joe and Aman; and Nikki and Keeva. New female Gladiator, Cyclone, debuts in this episode. Events for this heat include the classics Duel and The Wall, in addition to the renewed Gauntlet. During the event The Edge, female contender Nikki suffered an injury upon falling from the edge with Gladiator Dynamite. She was subsequently dispatched from the competition by the medical team, and was not able to do the Eliminator – therefore putting Keeva straight through to the Quarter Finals. This marks the first time in the show's history where only one Eliminator is played. Event 1: Duel Male contenders Joe  vs. Bionic (0–0) (0–0)  Aman vs. Steel Aman forfieted the event after falling onto Steel's podium.

Event 3: The Wall Male contenders Joe  vs. Legend (5–10) (11–20)  Aman vs. Apollo Before trying to eliminate his contender from the Wall, Legend played with this, and bypassed this to the top of the Wall. However, the Gladiator had not enough time left to dispatch the contender from the Wall, hence the game ending with a draw; earning the contender 5 points. Female contenders Nikki  vs. Comet (10–0) (18–10)  Keeva vs. Diamond Event 4: Collision Male contenders Joe  vs. Viper, Giant, Legend, and Phantom (8–6) (19–26)  Aman vs. Viper, Giant, Legend, and Phantom Female contenders Nikki  vs. Comet, Diamond, Fire, and Electro (0–10) (18–18)  Keeva vs. Comet, Diamond, Fire, and Electro The scores above reflect Keeva's scores on the scoreboard during the event and the aggregate score.

Event 5: The Edge Male contenders Joe  vs. Steel (2–2) (21–28)  Aman vs. Legend Female contenders Nikki  vs. Dynamite (2–2) (20–20)  Keeva vs. Fury Nikki suffered an unspecified injury after she fell from The Edge.
