PROGRESS Men’s World Championship Match
 Luke Jacobs (C) vs Man Like Dereiss 

Luke Jacobs has been carving out his place as a dominant force in PROGRESS. After breaking out as part of the Young Guns alongside Ethan Allen, Jacobs quickly rose to prominence as one of the hardest-hitting competitors in British wrestling. His reign as PROGRESS World Champion has been marked by gritty, no-nonsense defences, and he’s earned a reputation for his sheer toughness. On the other side of the ring is Man Like DeReiss, a high-energy competitor who’s been on a hot streak himself. DeReiss has been steadily climbing the ranks in PROGRESS, capturing the hearts of fans with his athleticism and charisma. A win here could catapult him to the top tier of British wrestling, making this title match must-watch – especially with the added bite of what Jacobs said in Oberhausen!

DEFY Men’s World Championship Match
 KENTA (C) vs Cara Noir

The DEFY World Champion KENTA, a global wrestling icon known for his time in NJPW and WWE, makes a rare appearance on UK soil to defend his championship. He’s bringing his ferocious strikes and world-renowned intensity to PROGRESS, but standing in his way is the enigmatic Black Swan, Cara Noir. A former PROGRESS World Champion, Cara Noir is no stranger to high-stakes matches, where his unique blend of theatricality and technical brilliance has made him one of our most beloved stars. After a lengthy reign atop PROGRESS, he’s now set his sights on international gold, and KENTA’s DEFY title could be his next prize.

 

PROGRESS Tag Team Street Fight Championship Match
Smokin’ Aces (C) vs The Experience

The Smokin’ Aces—Charlie Sterling and Nick Riley— are fresh off becoming three time tag team champions in PROGRESS. They played Sunshine Machine and SAnitY and now they hold the gold after a miscommunication between Chuck Mambo and Big Damo. But now, they face a new threat in The Experience, a formidable team of LA Taylor and Skye Smitson. Known for their physical dominance, they are relatively new as a unit in the tag team division, but both women bring an impressive pedigree and a rousing support. Can they make history and become the first ever all-female PROGRESS Tag Team Champions?

 

 

PROGRESS Women’s Championship Match
Rhio (C) vs Lizzy Evo

 

Rhio has proven to be a force in the PROGRESS women’s division, with her impressive technical ability and resilience leading her to the top for almost a year. As the current PROGRESS Women’s Champion, she has faced and defeated some of the best in the UK scene. But Lizzy Evo showed at Chapter 171 she is ready to step up and become the new face of the division. Evo has been making waves across the UK with her no-nonsense style and aggressive approach, making her a genuine threat to Rhio’s reign. Both women have strong histories in PROGRESS, and this match could be a turning point in the division.

 

 

PROTEUS Title Match
 Robbo vs Simon Miller

Robbo, a longtime staple of the British independent wrestling scene, holds the prestigious Proteus Title—a championship that comes with unique stipulations set by the reigning champion. Known for his vicious, hard-hitting style and his reputation as a dangerous competitor, Robinson has been a dominant Proteus Champion under his knockout or tap out rules. His challenger, Simon Miller, is no stranger to PROGRESS fans. Known for his larger-than-life persona and his resilience in the ring, Miller has steadily built a following, but taking on Robbo for the Proteus Title will be his toughest and biggest challenge yet. Can the fan-favourite Miller dethrone the ruthless Robinson?

 

 

Tag Team Match
Subculture vs Tate Mayfairs & Eddie Dennis

The build for Tate Mayfairs & Eddie Dennis vs. Subculture at Chapter 172 is rooted in betrayal and shifting alliances. Eddie Dennis and Tate Mayfairs, friends outside of the ring but seemingly not inside it, have faced eachother twice this year. During this feud, Mayfairs expressed deep resentment toward Dennis, accusing him of manipulation and using him as a stepping stone in his career. After weeks of tension, it appeared Mayfairs’ frustrations ended when he tried to help Eddie win before sympathetically throwing in the towel for Dennis during his PROGRESS World Championship match against Luke Jacobs at Chapter 171, signalling an unexpected shift in their relationship.

Despite this rocky history, the two have now formed a team, and Tate concocted this match for them taking on Subculture (the returning Flash Morgan Webster & Mark Andrews), former tag partners and current friends of Eddie Dennis. This match has become a must-watch, as fans are eager to see how the volatile team of Dennis and Mayfairs can co-exist and whether they can overcome the chemistry and experience of Subculture.

 

 

Tag Team Match
Sunshine Machine vs Gene Munny & Session Moth Martina

TK Cooper and Chuck Mambo, collectively known as Sunshine Machine, have been a cornerstone of the PROGRESS tag team division for years, bringing an infectious energy and innovative offense to every match they enter. Facing them are the unorthodox pairing of Session Moth Martina, one of the most entertaining and unpredictable personalities in wrestling, and Gene Munny, a charismatic, comedic wrestler who has also shown his disdain for the way he and Session moth have been treated and seen by the PROGRESS fans. Who will come out on top in this one and can Chuck Mambo stay focussed after his mishap last chapter?
