Munny, undefeated in 2022 up to today, was given the herculean task of defeating PROGRESS World Champion Jonathan Gresham in order to rubber-stamp his qualification. Against all the odds, win he did and that means he will finally take his place in a tournament he has long campaigned to be a part of. You can read full details of the circumstances of his win, and other wide-reaching consequences of that match right here.
Another man who confirmed his SSS16 participation mid-ring was Germany’s Maggot, one of the most highly regarded breakthrough wrestlers in Europe. Qualification came after he defeated three other stars of WXW in a four-way qualification match. Axel Tischer, Jurn Simmons and Bobby Gunns provided huge competition but in the end, Maggot was victorious on his PROGRESS debut and will be back at The Electric Ballroom on June 3rd to take his place in the first round of the three day tournament.
