Simon Miller may be best known for his popular wrestling-related YouTube videos, but now, the 39-year-old has captured gold of his own in the ring.
Miller captured the Proteus Championship at PROGRESS Wrestling Chapter 172: Werewolves of London on October 27, 2024. The match saw Miller defeat Paul Robinson in the Electric Ballroom in Camden, London, ending Miller’s reign that had been built on the grueling “knockout or tap-out” stipulation.
Following the win, Miller took to X to thank his supporters.
This win marks a major milestone for Miller, who has steadily transitioned from content creator and commentator to a respected competitor within the wrestling scene. While best known for his content-creating work, Miller has competed for PROGRESS, Alpha-1, Defiant Wrestling, and TNA, where he was part of the promotion’s Turning Point show in October 2023.
Miller’s success in the ring highlights that there’s never been one set path for wrestlers to follow to succeed in the squared circle. His success in wrestling is mirrored by the likes of Logan Paul and Bad Bunny, who similarly have seen victories in the ring despite not initially starting off as a wrestler.
