Arslan Ash just became a 6 time EVO champion. The Tekken 8 grand final started as a quick reset, as Atif climbed out of the losers bracket, and then quickly asserted himself. They both chose Anna Williams, much to the chagrin of the live crowd, and it proved deadly for Arslan. And after the reset, Arslan found the answer. Anna's in game sister, Nina Williams. It was on from there, and after a very wonderful effort, Arslan pulled it out.
This was a runback from last year, so let's see if we can get some new challengers for this 2026! When asked who would win if we were to see an Arslan Atif III, Arslan didn't hesitate. Humbly, he responded, "It will be me."
