We've had ideas for the lore behind this idea for a while even with the old team, they saw this as something that would happen sooner rather than later.
Now the title is more clickbait than anything because I can imagine why we don't have it. They're focusing on the elements already established. Trying to give us a better core game. I still think this idea could be added on sooner than later.
Imagine, a wealthy Caldari blood sport fanatic buys out a few districts for a fresh idea: Immortal Deathmatch. All the dark fun of a blood sport mixed in with the comfort of knowing that these are only immortal mercenaries killing each other. Instead of corporations, we would have small scale teams, like what we once had in the old school corp battles or tourney matches, in these battles. These teams would face each other for a large pot of ISK with the winning side claiming it all. This would end up making a competitive side to Dust 514 outside of corporate politics. Tight nit players who don't want to get into squads would have a place to go as well as the players who are only in the game for the dynamics of combat.
Simple, right?
Then things would get interesting for the EVE and Dust connection. Far as meta goes, EVE players would be able to make bets with their large wads of ISK and Dust players would gain attention around the Universe for fighting in these matches, essentially the same as basketball stars. Not only would EVE players take notice of the players, they would also start to pay attention to the meta of Dust and the lore due to both curiosity and trying to predict the outcome of matches or how well a team will fair in the future.
It sounds like something extremely desirable, right?
So why don't we ask the developers for this? Or at least to highlight it for future conception on their Roadmap?

Isn't there a game mode just like this called skirmish? Unless "arena mode" was for 1v1 or squad v squad. Then you might have something. I would definitely be down for some 1v1

Arena isn't a simple game mode, it's a whole new mechanic altogether.

Not from what you wrote earlier. I do like the idea of betting and involving EvE, though
