By Xtreme Lyfe Media | November 1, 2025 | Aberdeen, Scotland

If Day 1 at the 2025 Rogue Invitational was the storm rolling in, Day 2 was the lightning strike. The P&J Live Arena in Aberdeen pulsed with energy as the world’s strongest and fittest athletes went head-to-head through another slate of brutal events. The day delivered everything fans could hope for—epic comebacks, surprise leaders, and moments that will be replayed for months to come.

💪 Strongman: Hooper’s Ruthless Rise to the Top

The story of the day belonged to Mitchell Hooper. After finishing Day 1 just behind Trey Mitchell, Hooper turned on the afterburners—reminding everyone why he’s considered the most complete strongman on the planet.

  • Power Drive: Momentum shifted—Hooper capitalized on Trey’s slip, taking second while Trey slid to seventh.

  • Mons Megs Stones: Hooper closed the show with a flawless run, locking up the 2025 Rogue Invitational Strongman title.
