make it any difficulty and give the player a non-violent push ability and it could be done

Everyman Bronze: Get to level 12 in AoHu.
Everyman Silver: Win AoHu.
Everyman Gold: Win AoHu on HMP.
Everyman Platinum: AoHu on Nightmare!
Everyman Diamond: AoHu on N! without Badass (or without TaN, but I don't want yet another impossible diamond badge)

Soldier's Medal: Clear the wall on AoHu. (I almost did it on my first try, not too bad)
Army Distinguished Service Cross: Clear Spiders' Lair on AoHu. (I'm laughing just thinking about how hard this is)
Medal of Honor: Win AoHu as a conqueror. (Almost certainly impossible)

Am I forgetting my acronyms or is AoHu from the beta?
From what I see here it looks like no armor.

Instead of "Everyman", how about "Patriot" for the badge names - it seems to fit with the medal themes you propose as well as the name of the challenge itself

Why would you promote cheating with a medal? Don't you mean '133+ |-|4><><0r' anyway?

Medals do not necessarily promote anything -- they are an oblique way of tracking achievements.  So in a sense, if there are cheaters, they will be remembered for all time with their l33t h4xx0r medal.

And no, t hat way of writing it is more obnoxious than what I intended.

Hellraiser Bronze: Locate the Arena Master
Hellraiser Silver: Defeat the Arena Master
Hellraiser Gold: Defeat the Arena Master UV/AoSh
Hellraiser Platinum: Defeat the Arena Master on Nightmare!
Hellraiser Diamond: Defeat the Arena Master N!/AoSh

Since this new development in the game as occurred, it seems right to add a new badge series for it.

Alternatively AoSh could be replaced with AoP(u) so as to remove much of the zerking potential. (If I'm not mistaken by the mortems, you haven't "defeated" the Arena Master until everything in the level is destroyed, so this is harder than it sounds.)

Hellraiser Diamond: Defeat the Arena Master N!/AoSh

how about UV/AoHu for more variety in the Diamonds?  should still be pretty insane yet possible.

Arena Master on UV/AoHu would be the easiest diamond by a long shot. WINNING UV/AoHu would be the easiest diamond. It's just not possible to make a badge that's diamond-hard without it being on Nightmare! difficulty.
(Except for UV with fists, because that's just ridiculous and is probably the HARDEST diamond.)

EDIT: Oh hey, there's also UV/AoRA/100%. UV/AoHu/90%+ would be diamond-difficulty, then.

I'm not sure about AoSh, though. AoSh is the easiest challenge for everything but beating the Arena Master, so I guess I can see where you're coming from.

Angel of Purity is another possibility (as mentioned), but I think even HAVING rockets could make this a lot easier than not, especially with the respawning otherwise. AoSh forces you to knockback practically everything into the lava, no easy feat whatsoever, and is among the most fair ways to beat N! HArena so that this can at least be practiced on multiple occasions.

Speaking of UV Diamonds, There's also Gatekeeper Diamond (UV Hellgate clear w/o damage) but it's probably the easiest Diamond...
