Sadly, it can't be bought back due to Political Correctness, as it was deemed to be too "dangerous" after new Health and Safethy guidelines were announced.
Off the top of your head, how many Gladiator names can you remember (without searching!).
I can recall :
Jet - Simply cause she was so HOT
Wolf - As he appeared in an advert for Barbarian if I remember correctly.

Lightning - Am just guessing here, but I'm pretty sure there was a contestant (female) with that moniker.
Wow, what a poor memory.
All in all it was the PG eqivalent of The Running Man.
