As a stalwart of competition, DaMo has enjoyed a long and memorable career in The Great Arena, particularly as one of the top shelf talents in the Duo Division. It was during Battle Royale 2012, however, that DaMo declared a bold new era for himself, starting with a dominant performance in the second annual forty-man battle royal. This proclamation of the Year of the DaMo came at the expense of several other Battle Royale hopefuls, including an uncharacteristically unlucky Hokey!
Matched up at Pre-Show 20: The Ground Floor; Hokey had the opportunity to even the score for his abrupt elimination, going one-on-one with Year of the DaMo. The pair delivered an instant classic in the calibre of their Duo battle at All-Star Summer Showdown, even more exceptionally well matched as individuals! Despite DaMo's best efforts, however, the blockbuster encounter would go Hokey's way.
After reteaming with DeathScepter in a dominant Tower of Power IV performance; DaMo returned to solo competition to challenge Hokey's former Championship partner, Ninja_Mime, to a clash at Pre-Show 21: Tower Fallout. Motivated by the disappointment of Hokey & Ninja_Mime not contesting the Supercard 20 Duo Tower; DaMo still failed to exact any payback, defeated swiftly by Ninja_Mime, while Hokey did away with DeathScepter in another match.
The mounting grudge saw an inevitable rematch between the actual foes at Supercard 21: The Long Hard Road. All roads led Year of the DaMo to a conclusive victory over "The Charmed" Hokey, but rather than put the feud to rest, the turning tables provoked a greater mutual resentment! As if brought together by the sheer magnetism of their rivalry; Hokey and DaMo met once again, this time in the Fourth Round of Tournament 12: Grand Prix Warm-Up! Having made his name as one of the league's top tournament competitors, Hokey did not disappoint, charming his way to the T12 finals in a reversal of fates played out in Battle Royale 2012! Hokey failed to win, finding himself a surprise elimination in the Quarter Finals, but the Grand Prix Warm-Up did its job.
More incensed than before, Year of the DaMo will look to have the final say in his compelling feud with "The Charmed" Hokey in another fierce grudge bout! It will truly be a Test of the Best, the final battle to immortalize both, and deliver one contender a step closer to the ultimate solo prize!
PLUS! While DaMo and Hokey duke it out mano-a-mano -- Ninja_Mime and DeathScepter will join the massive mystery line-up of a hotly anticipated Grand Prix Battle Royal! Even with only five matches confirmed, Ultimate Grand Prix 2012 - Test of the Best is living up to every claim that it will be the biggest event The Great Arena has ever seen!
