HYPE: Three More Join Grand Prix Thirty!

Supercard 4: 2011 Ultimate Grand Prix - The Arena Spectacular is just two weeks away, which means there's a lot of action to pack-in before April 3 sees the best of the best spill into The Great Arena for the biggest show in history!

A special Thirty-Man Battle Royal is one of only two known matches for the major event, which will give its winner a chance at immortality, and a boost in the unofficial rankings heading into the future! While eighteen fighters will attempt to earn their way into the match at Pre-Show 3: The Road to Redemption -- intertwined rivals, Ken, m0s, and STEROLIZER, were announced yesterday for instant entry into the match!

Today; unixpunk, Buster, and ThirtyThr33 will be added to the list, bringing with them the experience of a total seven previous Battle Royal eliminations! The trio are part of an elite group of eliminators from Supercard 1's forty-person 2011 Battle Royale, which was won by Grand Prix Championship contender, ElJobber! While they weren't ultimately victorious, these three entrants will surely be influential figures in the match, bringing a unique familiarity to a competition that is set to include some new faces as a result of qualifiers.

This newest announcement brings the confirmed field up to fifteen, leaving only half of the available slots open to as yet unknown competitors. The complete list is as follows:

  • unixpunk (2-5-0), Buster (2-3-0), ThirtyThr33 (1-4-0)
  • Ken (2-5-0), m0s (2-2-0), STEROLIZER (0-4-0)
  • Winner of: xtactics versus rxvt
  • Winner of: Jax versus Porygonix
  • Winner of: Jammer2Omega versus onryo
  • Winner of: Politics versus Chromatose
  • Winner of: NovaStarr versus Vultyrex
  • Winner of: Celeste versus Mark
  • Winner of: SlumDunk versus Tyrant-Cenobite
  • Winner of: Shadaloo versus Menas
  • Winner of: GreenLantern versus AlexanderLuthorJr

Supercard 4 will also play host to an eagerly anticipated championship match when 2011 Battle Royale winner and long standing #1 contender, ElJobber, challenges the surprise new champion from Supercard 3, Toryn, in the main event of April 3!

UP NEXT: Pre-Show 3: The Road to Redemption where eighteen fighters will contend guaranteed qualification into the Supercard 4 thirty-person Battle Royal. PLUS! Fan-favourite Ratt issues an open challenge, hoping to draw out the dishonored deadman who beat him at Supercard 3, Revenant Genku! March 20 will be the last chance for redemption before the lights shine bright at Supercard 4: 2011 Ultimate Grand Prix - The Arena Spectacular!
