* During Series 2 Rowan Duxbury, who had won her heat, was forced to pull out of the show before her Quarter Final after contracting food poisoning the day of filming. Three weeks before Series 3's final heat was to be filmed, they called her and invited her back onto the show to try again.

** Speaking of the International events, during the first event, at the top you'd see Mike Adamle and John Fashanu emerge; right before they walked out, they did a little handshake/fistbump kinda thing. They probably hadn't had that much interaction before this, but seeing them do that right before hosting a giant, awesome event full of badasses is just something. Not to mention that fact that Gladiating transcends international boundaries.

* On top of that, the contestant she was competing against at the time of the accident actually stopped as soon as she could see Panther fall and rushed to her side in a show of support.

Zodiac stepped in for the second round and after the game she paused on her way out of the arena to ask the crowd to cheer for Panther.

* Gladiator Panther, who made her return in a Celebrity Special after suffering a nasty injury on Tilt [[note]]([[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Chgk3l-LybI She landed head first on the mat, with her feet over her back.]])[[/note]], thanking those who sent her "get well" wishes during her recovery...and the flowers.

* In the Eliminator of the second International Gladiators grand final, the Gladiators of the contenders' respective countries can be seen in the audience showing their support.
* The final montage provided on the last ever episode of the original UK show. It really is heartwarming, bordering on tear-jerking, seeing all of the great moments the show has provided, with insights from Urika Johnson and John Fashanu on the show as a whole. It especially heartwarming seeing Wolf, of all the Glads, break character to give his thanks to the fans and genuinely express his sadness of the show ending but also his happiness for the great memories the show provided.
