See how Hercules overpowers Masterson in a contest of strength and then recovers before him after that amped lightning after taking more hammer shots than Gladiator?
Regarding the Masterson/Gladiator fight. Gladiator just finished humiliating Wonder Man then had Masterson Thor dead to rights but just stood there doing nothing while MT set up a sucker attack using Living Lightening.
Regarding the Ares-Thor/Hercules fight, it was a contest Ares was having with his step mother in order to see who could cause Hercules more pain. Ares' plan was to enrage Hercules enough that he would wind up killing his best friend. He didn't want Hercules dead, he wanted him to kill Eric.
The Gladiator/Hulk fight was filled with just as much PIS as the Firelord/Spiderman fight.

Exactly. Gladiator was destroying Masterson...don't know why he just stood there when he could have finished him off. Masterson even said that Glads was too much and lets not forget, Gladiator dazed him twice in that fight.
The Hulk fight, Herc almost died in.that fight. Blood was everywhere. Don't know why ABHI is celebrating that showing.
Gladiator actually beat BOTH Wonderman AND MT but just stood around their and waiting for him to sucker attack him using Living Lightening.
That's not a bad showing for Gladiator at all.
But that wasn't clearly his intention. It was to goad him to kill Eric and thus destroy Hercules emotionally. That was Hera's plan too, to destroy him emotionally. They knew if they outright killed him, Zeus would pummel their a$$e$.
PS Two questions for you Abhi :
a) where was it stated that Hulk's durability was lowered during the fight with Gladiator?
b) where was it stated that Hercules was at half power during his fight with Hulk?

Hulk was dying when he fought both Herc and Glads. The difference is, Hulk was more powerful when he faced Glads vs when he faced Herc.
Herc was a mere blood stain when he fought Hulk and the crazy thing about it is, Hulk didn't want to fight Herc...whereas he was set for the kill vs Gladiator.
Also, ABHI knows that the Hulk was more powerful than ever (I think he knows) during that instance. Hulk was going into a complete transformation. A couple of issues later, he went World Breaker...had green energy circling his body and was melting humans just by standing close to him.
It's been a while, but I'm pretty certain Ares was specifically trying NOT to kill Hercules and was goading Hercules into killing Eric Masterson by endangering others. Even at the very end, he literally waits for Hercules to recover and tells him that Masterson has to die to stop innocent deaths.
And just like Gladiator, Hercules was knocked out by the Mjolnir shots. IIRC, once from a sucker shot from behind. The second time it took 3 to 4 hits to the face. Not sure how Hercules outperformed Gladiator in this regard either who took just as many blows and recovered as well. If Ares was going for the kill and hammered away at the Lion of Olympus, he could have beaten Hercules to death too.
I agree that Hercules would get the edge in hand to hand (With no flight/speed etc.) but Gladiator didn't fair any worse against Masterson.
Edit: Not sure how he overpowered Masterson in a contest of strength either. He tackled Masterson from the side who was waiting for Hercules to get lethal.

Herc has went h2h with the likes of Wonderman, thing and thor and got knocked around and hurt. Gladiator has went h2h with them also and barring an enchanted hammer, glads has koed or beat the hell out of them. Gladiator destroys herc.
This is a PISLESS fight though.
That means Herc would be Glads plaything for amusement. He would toy with him until he gets tired, then he will end him quickly.
How did Hercules overpower Thor during Blood Oath? It was made so explicitly clear that what he did was because of a skill edge that you would legit need dyslexia or something to come to the conclusion that Hercules was physically stronger.
No PIS doesn't mean Gladz speedblitz and eye beams continuously. Herc will rock Kall here and there without a doubt hes fought beings with similar powersets and stats and wasnt a plaything. If Gladz wins its barely a W
