You can't just assume that because Thor beat Gladiator and Hercules matched Thor, that Namor competing with Hercules means he could take Gladiator. That's ABC logic, and isn't allowed.
I'd consider Namor a level or two below Thor too, tbh.
Gladiator wouldn't wreck Namor, not a chance. He has too good of a record. If they were to fight, I'd wager a hydrated Namor would give as good as he got until Kallark used his heat vision to edge it out. I'm sure some people would cry PIS though.
The last time I saw Namor losing against a big gun, it was a Void influenced Sentry. And even then, he held his own. Not exactly a bad showing.

But unlike saying that Flash spams IMPs from the get go, Gladiator almost always busts out the heat vision as soon as he fights. Especially when he knows he's up against Namor.
Gladiator's heat vision should give him the win on average, never denied that. Some people are pretending as if he'd be getting manhandled or something.
its not ABC logic its indication, i am pointing out the things namor acomplished and how it compares to gladiator, as i pointed out gladiator may be slightly very very slightly stronger than namor BUT namor makes up forthat with his fighting abilities, namor always held his own and even knocked out the hulk with a punch and went toe 2 toe with hercules, gladiator never held his own he always got trashed up by either hulk or thor or even masterson he is a very lame fighter
of course namor is a league or 2 below thor , thor is the top of the herald chain no herald can match him in marvel universe but it has nothing to do with gladiator who is a crapy fighter
Even at his strongest , Namor is a tier or so below Gladiator, who should still have the powerset of a pre-crisis Superman, from when he was created.
However, Gladiator is a fringe character who is more plot device than person; a deliberate analogue brought in just to make another character look good by losing to them. So of course, Namor has a shot.
