TheWoWDBThis was the mount that was awarded to the original gladiators of Arena Season 1 back when arenas first came out. Since this is the S1 mount, this was officially the first Gladiator mount in the game and is no longer obtainable as of now.
Gladiator mounts are only obtainable to the Gladiators of the current season, and are then discontinued and replaced with a new Gladiator mount for the following season.

NOT true. My 5v5 (Blackout EU) was probably 30th-40th, and we got one. It completely depends on your battlegroup. Btw, am I the only one thinking 300 riding skill on this thing is stupid? Sure, it looks cool and is the fastest mount in the game (310%), but I think people with this mount really have earned it. Ah well, off to farm 4k gold.
