[edit] Story

Super Phoenix was born Phoenixman, in the same hospital and on the same day as Kinnikuman and four other boys. A fire broke out in the wing of the hospital where they were being kept and in the chaos they may have been mixed up leading to confusion over the identity of the true heir to the throne of planet Kinniku. Phoenixman grew up poor and alone, hoping that he could prove himself to be the heir and be taken away from his misery. He had planned on entering a tournament to become the next successor to the throne, but was unable to gain sponsorship by the death of his father (King Tone, the pig that was mistaken for the real Kinnikuman, is believed to have won this tournament). Phoenixman's misery only increased when Kinnikuman was revealed as the prince of planet Kinniku, as he was (in Phoenixman's eyes) an idiot who got money and recognition without working for them, while Phoenixman was intelligent and had to struggle to survive. He hated Kinnikuman with a passion.

When Kinnikuman had proven to his family that he was worthy to become the next king because of his various championships and victories over Akuma Choujin, five evil gods began to fear his interference in their plans. They decided to seek out the five other possible heirs and have them present their claims to the throne as well, resulting in a survivor series to determine the most worthy successor. Phoenixman was chosen by the God of Intelligence to be his champion against Kinnikuman's ascension, and he relished the chance to get revenge on Kinnikuman and claim the throne he believed was rightfully his. He became Kinnikuman Super Phoenix and gathered a team of powerful, ruthless choujin to assist him.

In the first round of the tournament, Super Phoenix's team was pitted against Kinnikuman Big Body and his team. Phoenix's ally Mammothman tore through Big Body's teammates before intentionally tying with the last one to allow Super Phoenix to battle Big Body. Phoenix quickly defeated Big Body with the Muscle Revenger, an attack supposedly only usable by members of the royal Kinniku bloodline.

Team Super Phoenix's next round was against Kinnikuman Soldier (really Kinnikuman's brother Ataru Kinniku). Satan Cross fought and killed The Ninja and Ashuraman, and Super Phoenix, Mammothman and Prisman took on the remainder in a six-man match. Mammothman and Prisman were ultimately taken out of the fight at the cost of the lives of Buffaloman and Brocken Jr., leaving Ataru and Super Phoenix to finish it. Ataru put Super Phoenix into a Muscle Spark, more to show his brother a technique powerful enough to defeat Super Phoenix than to beat the challenger to the throne himself. Super Phoenix gained the upper hand and killed Ataru with a Muscle Revenger, then burned his page from the Muscle Prophecy Book, erasing Ataru from existence in the process.
