PROGRESS World Champion Travis Banks is one of the 8 men that will be heading to the Royal Albert Hall next Monday 18th hoping to advance to the finals of the WWE United Kingdom Championship Tournament. The shows on Monday and Tuesday are being taped to appear on the WWE Network the following week.
Banks defeated UK veteran El Ligero to advance to a bout against Ashton Smith in the Quarter Finals and he has his sights set on challenging Pete Dunne on the second night of the Royal Albert Hall tapings for the UK Championship. You can hear Banks’ thoughts in the short video below.
Opinion: Banks originally won his PROGRESS World Title against Pete Dunne after an incredible match at Alexandra Palace in London, England. To see these two in the ring again would be a treat but it is highly likely that Zack Gibson or ‘Flash’ Morgan Webster are going to the final and taking home the trophy before meeting Dunne on day 2. With the way that the brackets have been laid out Banks would avoid both men until the final so there is a very good chance that he makes it all the way and gets beaten at the final hurdle.
