And now for something a bit more serious, Nightmare!
Stats:
Human Theatrics Gladiator
84 Strength
63 Intellect
66 Agility
77 Stamina
87 Size
78 Presence
56 Chi
He's level 9 and has 502 Health and 77 Endurance
Gear:
His gear is a bit odd, he wears a white Medium Armor Chest, an epic Light Armor head, a blue Light Armor Weapon Arm, white Light Armor Shield Arm and white legs.
He wields a single, blue, one handed axe.
Fighting Style:
He's a very defensive fighter, most likely set to Parry-Bash. Strikes hard, but not often, however, he's hard to hit as he kinda spams Create Distance.
Beating him:
Personally, I find this guy to be a very tough nut to crack for many of my gladiators. I've had the best results trying to hit his back leg or shield arm, as those have the lowest armor.
While Two-Handed war and rage gladiators have a slightly easier time, fast attacking rage or theatrics will definitely have issues with Nightmare. Another option would be to try and wear him down
with a defensive gladiator, since his Endurance isn't gigantic.
Edit: Updated with the new changes. This guy hasn't changed much, he remains the same pain in the butthole.

Let's carry on to Skull Reaver! (I know I've skipped Panzer, I'll post his stats when I can :D)
Stats:
Human Rage Gladiator
76 Strength
65 Intellect
70 Agility
73 Stamina
65 Size
57 Presence
54 Chi
He's level 11 and has 474 Health and 73 Endurance
Gear:
He wields a single, blue, One-Handed Morning Star, wears a green Helm, a blue Chest and white legs and hands, all Light Armor, of course.
Fighting Style:
Likely just bashing around. He uses Barreling Attack and Feint.
Beating Him:
Personally I've found him to be pretty easy, only encountered issues on a couple of Two Hand gladiators. You can mostly outswing him with any fast attacking gladiator. Create Distance will definitely help Two Hand war gladiators. Two Hand rage also has a decent chance to just murder him with pure damage.
Edit: Updated with the new changes. He now attacks a lot more and uses Sunder Armour. He also seems a bit harder to hit.

Now for another nasty opponent, General Kain!
Stats:
Human War Gladiator
81 Strength
63 Intellect
67 Agility
84 Stamina
85 Size
72 Presence
70 Chi
He's level 12 and has 577 Health and 84 Endurance.
Gear:
He wears full green heavy armor, roughly the same armor everywhere and wields a blue One-Handed Sword and an epic Dagger in his off-hand
Fighting Style:
Although I've seen him deflect quite a few hits, I don't think he's set to parry, but rather, Slash. He uses a lot of Create Distance and Feint
Beating him:
This guy can be pretty tough, especially for Theatrics glads, as far as I'm concerned. Rage has a pretty easy time with him, just go nuts and berserk his sorry ass. Kill shot might work too. War glads can get there with Create Distance. As for Theatrics, try Create Distance out as well, it'd definitely help.
Edit: Updated with the new changes. He uses Death From Above now.

Today's info is on Axe Murderer!
Stats:
Human Theatrics Gladiator
88 Strength
64 Intellect
93 Agility
86 Stamina
90 Size
59 Presence
67 Chi
He's level 13 and has 649 Health and 86 Endurance.
Gear:
He dual wields a pair of blue One-Handed Axes and wears full Light Armor, he has a white Helm, blue Chest, blue Shield Arm, green Weapon Arm and white legs.
Fighting Style:
He strikes hard and fast with his axes and he may be set to some kind of defensive tactic as I noticed a lot of parried attacks on his side.
Beating him:
He's nothing special, just go for his head or legs and swing away.
Edit: Updated with the new changes. He's a bit stronger now. He uses the new sig move and his bleeds are really sick.

And now for the final boss of Tier 1, The Butcher!
Stats:
Human War Gladiator
85 Strength
56 Intellect
70 Agility
82 Stamina
80 Size
70 Presence
90 Chi
He's level 14 and has 655 Health and 82 Endurance.
Gear:
He wields a blue Two-Handed Axe, wears full green heavy armour, except for his helm, which is epic.
Fighting Style:
This guy is certainly not a defensive gladiator, likely set to bash. He uses Create Distance and Feint.
Beating him:
The butcher is actually not all that hard, compared to some other challenges, but he can still be a pain. For best results, aim for arms or legs, since he's less likely to be defending those, although he still wears heavy armor on them, and just smack away at him. Sunder Armor, Brute Force and Gratuitous Violence are all skills that definitely make him an easier fight.
Edit: Updated with the new changes. He still uses Feint, he may be set to tanking or a fail-parry, because the crowd started throwing things at him at a certain point.

And for the last T1 challenge I haven't covered yet, Panzer!
Stats:
Human War Gladiator
82 Strength
69 Intellect
56 Agility
80 Stamina
85 Size
51 Presence
50 Chi
He's level 10 and has 524 Health and 80 Endurance
Gear:
He wields a green one-handed Hammer and a blue Tower-Shield. He wears a green Heavy Armor Helm, a green Medium Armor Chest, white Medium armor weapon arm, white light armor shield arm and white light legs.
Fighting Style:
He's set to parry-bash and uses Feint and Create Distance.
Beating him:
This guy's really tough, he's a very defensive gladiator. For best results, go for his shield arm or legs and rack up attack power or brute force. Otherwise, one can try to outlast him with a low activity setting.
Edit: Updated with the new changes. He now uses Death From Above, he's also slightly harder to hit :P
-
All of t1 is also updated :D

Updated with all available info at this point in time.

I still can't get past Panzer with a 2H War. :/
