Simon Miller, Ups and Downs

As one of the most loved and recognisable faces in the online wrestling community, it was a no brainer for PROGRESS Wrestling to bring in Simon Miller as the host of their chapter shows.

His personality and charisma is perfect for making fans feel at ease and positive going into each and every PROGRESS Wrestling chapter, but he has always had detractors as an outsider in the business coming into the squared circle.

No more so than Tate Mayfairs…

Notable matches in Simon Miller’s history include:

Simon Miller vs Tate Mayfairs

Team Miller vs Team Mayfairs

Simon Miller vs Rob Drake

Simon Miller vs Robbo

Simon Miller is now officially part of the PROGRESS Wrestling roster and made his dream reality by becoming the Proteus Champion!

Rhio, North West Strong.

After debuting during the Reveleations of Divine Love tournament of 2021, Rhio proved herself by winning the whole thing, defeating three of the best PROGRESS Wrestling had to offer.

Notable matches in Rhio’s history include:

Rhio in the Thunderbastard match
Rhio vs Mercedes Blaze
Rhio vs Trish Adora
Rhio v Gisele Shaw

Rhio is the current PROGRESS Women’s champion after unlocking her opportunity to pin Lana Austin at Chapter 158. She has said she wants to be a champion the PROGRESS Wrestling fans can be proud of and someone they know will handle anything or anyone.

So far she is more than doing that as she defeats competitor after competitor, always showing great fight and great respect.

Luke Jacobs, North West Strong.

After debuting in PROGRESS in 2019 in a dark match, Luke Jacobs really burst onto the scene in 2021 during the Peckham era winning the Natural Progression series and a title shot for the PROGRESS Men’s World Championship.

Since then he has had over 50 matches in PROGRESS Wrestling, won the ATLAS Championship, won the 2024 Super Strong Style 16 Tournament and had many memorable, hard hitting matches that get talked about to this day.

Notable matches in Luke Jacobs’ history include:

Luke Jacobs vs Spike Trivet
Luke Jacobs vs Axel Tischer
Luke Jacobs vs Kid Lykos
Alexxis Falcon v Ricky Knight Jr

Luke Jacobs has won the ATLAS Championship and after five years in the company, he became the PROGRESS Men’s World Champion by defeating the man he betrayed, Kid Lykos.

Kid Lykos

With seven years of service to PROGRESS Wrestling behind him, the fans saw a change of heart for Kid Lykos which saw him garner the #foreveryone movement and win the 2023 Super Strong Style 16 tournament.

Notable matches in Kid Lykos’ history include:

Kid Lykos vs Spike Trivet
Kid Lykos vs Chris Brookes
CCK vs Ringkampf
CCK vs British Strong Style

After his successful Super Strong Style 16, Kid Lykos named Chapter 157 as the time to cash in his shot at the Men’s PROGRESS Champion, Spike Trivet. His efforts fell short thanks to the Sovereign Lord ripping Lykos’ mask off and rolling him up. The Lykos Gym member vowed that it was not over… and went on to defeat the Vulture and win the Men’s PROGRESS World Championship in a heated, bloody steel cage match.

A five-month reign which cost him friendships with Connor Mills and then Luke Jacobs came to an end when the latter defeated him for the gold at Chapter 169: The Devil On My Shoulder.
