They did change. The first use of gladiators was at funerals, but it became so popular that it eventually became larger with a wider audience. Large arenas were built to hold games, there were training schools, and men who were taken alive in wars became gladiators. It was a big business for the wealthy of Rome to own or have an investment in a school. At it's peak gladiators had sea battles and fought wild animals as well as each other. Bets were made on who would win and some gladiators won fame and freedom ( though not many).
