I agree with Martin.
Samnite may have been what they called all Gladiators , and dont forget that the first recorded showing was in 264BC and that the reforms came in under Augustus 31BC to AD14.
My guess would be that early gladiators would look very similar to Samnite warriors and that as time progressed they may have looked more like the Roman military.
