HYPE: OG Howell & Murdoink Must Earn Stripes!

At January's Supercard 1: Battle Royale 2011; a surprising feud presented itself when Murdoink took the fight to Scott-Howell in reprisal of a previous encounter during eliminations of Tournament 1! At Pre-Show 2: Champion's Revenge, Murdoink finally got the better of his rival, but out of this clash came a newfound respect that led the pair to become The Great Arena's first official duo!

At Supercard 3: The Long Hard Road "Sugar" Scott-Howell & Murdoink debuted as a tandem in the first ever team battle, facing-off against the high quality makeshift combo of Hokey & Ninja_Mime. Against the spontaneous chemistry of the two highly ranked individuals, Howell & Murdoink came up short, but their status as the affectionately referred "original" team was canonized.

Hokey & Mime's success will now garner the interests of new challengers [namely; DeathScepter & DaMo] -- making Supercard 4 a must-win opportunity for Scott-Howell & Murdoink to earn their stripes on the biggest stage of them all, without the benefit of a rematch.

Howell & Murdoink will be at the disadvantage, however. Despite their teaming experience, they will know nothing of their opponents coming in to the biggest show of them all, set to face a mystery combination who will reveal themselves on April 3! This will be the ultimate test for a team that has the sentimental vote, but will need to start backing that up to survive the harsh conditions of The Great Arena floor!

With the addition of this mystery encounter, the card now has some serious heft! There'll be three big team fights come April 3:
1. ElJobber versus Toryn (c) for the Championship! [Preview]
2. Cr0w & Kron versus Famine & Pestilence in a frontline clash!
3. TonyTheTiger versus Mimik in a top ten rankings battle!
4. Thirty-Person Grand Prix Battle Royal featuring: Ken, m0s, STEROLIZER, Porygonix, Chromatose, onryo, Vultyrex, Celeste, Tyrant-Cenobite, Menas, AlexanderLuthorJr, unixpunk, Buster, ThirtyThr33, as well as winners of Tournament 4 and a special tag bout at Pre-Show 4!
5. DeathScepter & DaMo versus Hokey & Ninja_Mime
6. Scott-Howell & Murdoink versus Mystery Opponents

It's the show so big, it's going to take two days to fit it all in!
April 2 marks the official launch of the big weekend, starting with Pre-Show 4: Grand Prix Warm-Up -- where Tournament 4 will decide a final entrant into the Thirty-Person Grand Prix Battle Royal, and Ken & Ratt team in the main event against m0s & STEROLIZER in a preview of that match. PLUS! The Supreme Warrior debuts with an open challenge, and the Grand Prix Battle Royal is shaped further when xtactics and Celeste defend their qualifying spot!

Then, Sunday is the biggest event to ever occur in the history of The Great Arena! Supercard 4: 2011 Ultimate Grand Prix - The Arena Spectacular will bring together the best and brightest in a showcase of the hottest feuds and most skilled competitors! An all-star blockbuster cast includes the championship decider between ElJobber and Toryn; an unlikely team-up between legends of the fight, Cr0w and Kron, who want to End Famine and Pestilence in The Great Arena; a massive Thirty-Person Grand Prix Battle Royal, and so much more! All the action will be in The Great Arena thanks to #MicksDesk, April 3!

Stay tuned right here for daily updates on all of the developing feuds and match-ups for this weekend! Updates stretch back more than a week, so you can know exactly how it all came together on the day fighters became legends!
