It depends on the arena. Most arenas or amphitheatres had nothing under them. There were separate holding areas under the seats for the gladiators, animals, prisoners, etc. However the Colosseum in Rome, had a "basement" under the wooden floor, and down there were the holding cells for the prisoners, gladiators and animals. It also had an elevator system and a storage area for plants and scenery that enhanced the events on the main floor.
