Can Superman match this Gladiator strength feat?
Gladiator destroying a planet in a few hits, current Superman can do this without any problem but this is post crisis Superman, Byrnes version after COIE up until just before the N52 Supes, can this much weaker Superman match the feat?

Before New 52? Ridiculously exceeds it.

When did he fly through that planet several times? Where is it stated that he weakened that planet?
The third panel in the first scan he shown flying into the planet. I presumed at the very least
Second scan last panel we see him finally emerging outside of the planet. With other planets visible. The panel before the last panel suggest “Causes him to finally surface” the first panel in the next page suggest he “returns to the void of space” it implies he was burrowing through the planet. That would therefore be weakening it.
3rd scan fourth panel we see lines driven through the planet. Maybe the planet is strangely designed like that but I assumed it was Gladiator flying through it multiple times.
He even turns back towards the planet blast it with his heat vision before landing on it and hitting it.

Superman broke the chains that can haul stars between galaxies (more than trillions of time more than Gladiator's feat)
Superman benched the Earth (multiple times greater than Glad's feat).
Just so you know. The planet was smaller than Mars (it had no atmosphere). Think of one of Jupiter's largest moons with a slight atmosphere.

You're asking if Superman could fly through a star (lol) and then use his power to punch a planet to bits?
Of course he could.

This was Lar Gand, early post crisis Mon-El.
Superman matched him several times, including when amped by Eclipso:

The way you worded it left it unclear, but I took it as Superman at any point up to New 52.

Well..
Later on, yes before DOS, Superman would be thrown in the Sun, after Eradicator had turned it red, twice, and wasn't seriously hurt.
