Marcus Aurelius wasn't killed by Commodus. That is a false theory which has no factual evidence in real life. In fact, Commodus was more of a gladiator himself and was strong and very skilled at fighting. He had already been co-Caesar for three years when his father died and did not care to handle the administration. Throughout his reign he entrusted the management of affairs to his palace chamberlain and Praetorian prefects named Saoterus, Perennis, and Cleander so he could focus on gladiator games and fighting.
