This weekend at Supercard 85: Tower of Power XVII - the reigning tandem of Marz & Violent`J will attempt to make history by successfully defending their Duo Division Championship for an uninterrupted 364th day! Victory will all but assure the pair the unprecedented feat of reigning for a full calendar year - but the story of their success stretches over a far greater period than 365 days!
The Canadian pairing were already established as a team when they exploded onto the scene in ICWW. Cynical toward the new promotion at first, they missed key seminal events, but quickly made up for lost time with individual and tag team triumphs. It wasn't long before they inevitably won the ICWW Tag Team Championship, and began a dynasty as two of the most important figures in the organizations epoch-making run!
Surviving records show Team Xtreme always had a head-to-head edge over rivals "The Pacific Connection" Oozaru & Banging, but their rivalry over the years helped the argument that they were the greatest Tag Team of all-time. They were 3-time Tag Team Champions, yet the heights of their career came as individuals fighting for the International and Heavyweight Championships!
At times, the complicated relationship between Marz and Violent`J saw them competing as rivals. Marz broke away first as the ring technician, while Violent`J courted fan support with his exciting style and big personality! They were at odds at the close of ICWW, but when Violent`J entered The Great Arena in 2012, Marz and a reunion wasn't far behind!
The "Silent Invasion" by ICWW Immortals began a second era in the Team Xtreme career, elevating their status with domination over The Great Arena! In August 2012, Marz & Violent`J earned an Olympic Gold Medal for Canada. They then won the subsequent first Grand Slam [Doubles] event in an incredible undefeated streak! Violent`J's reign as an Undisputed Champion and the loyalties of ICWW alum took them away from the Duo Division, but in 2015 Team Xtreme were back to fight for themselves! They suffered their first defeat at All-Star Summer Showdown, but avenged that loss by taking the Duo Division Championship from Ratt & NightHawk! The rest is history!
For fifteen Duo Division Championship defenses and 360 days - "Team Xtreme" Marz & Violent`J have reigned undefeated as a tandem! They are already an unprecedented success, Hall of Famers whose legacy has been cemented. Win, lose, or draw - they are a part of The Great Arena legend.
This Sunday they attempt to do something no one has ever done. At Supercard 85: Tower of Power XVII - the best in the league will sharpen themselves in pursuit of the gold! It will be the 364th day of Marz & Violent`J as champions. If they win, they will reach one full year! Can they do it? Revisit their legendary career together below and then be here Sunday to get all the results!
