Lol...Gladiator is my favorite character and he has a sig of him getting choked and getting his wrist broke, and put it up right after our debate about Glads. Kinda like his Hulk sig with the puppies. We had a discussion before hand about Hulk vs Mystique and her turning into a puppy. Moments later he put as sig up with Hulk and the puppies all around him. I see what Dark is doing. Evil.

Shut yo face, that Hulk sig was universally loved.

But it's not pertinent to this fight. He's not going to lose confidence in his own powers because he snaps a dudes neck.
And yes, the above is a lot of conjecture/ PIS etc. but, so is the Story oriented OP, bringing in the characters' feelings/motivations/mental states is the point of this exercise.

Wanted to elaborate, on my "your opinion" response.
Your opinion of Cap being "some dude" is as accurate as the opinion that Gladiator is "just another Superman rip off".
In story context Cap's the most honorable of heroes, used by Gods as a measuring stick.
Gladiator's a Noble Warrior, not a traditional hero, but not an assassin, either. People like that dont betray each other without deep moral qualms.And yes, the above is a lot of conjecture/ PIS etc. but, so is the Story oriented OP, bringing in the characters' feelings/motivations/mental states is the point of this exercise.

Okay but nothing you just said as any relevance. Even if he felt bad over snapping his neck it WOULD NOT erode his confidence. Why? Why would it? Show me when he has ever had his confidence eroded by the mere act of killing someone. Give me an example from a comic. Whenever he has had issues with his confidence it is because something happened to make him doubt his own power. Explain why snapping the neck of anyone would make him doubt his POWER. Why would he think the act of snapping any mans neck would erode his strength?
He might not be super happy to snap Cap's neck, but he's not going to be crying himself to sleep at night. You really think Gladiator cares about any of the heroics Cap has done? Also any scenario that feats him snapping Cap's neck..he wouldn't do it unless he had a decent enough reason to do it.
