2017 has been quite an incredible calendar year for Pete Dunne. The WWE UK Champion made his RAW debut last night defeating WWE Cruiserweight Champion Enzo Amore in front of his countrymen in Manchester, England.

Dunne is regarded as one of the hardest working performers in the UK and he isn’t making his way to the WWE full time just yet…

Top UK promotion Lucha Forever has announced that Dunne will be taking on PROGRESS World Champion Travis Banks this Saturday as part of their ‘Fire In The Booth’ event from Birmingham. Banks beat Dunne for the coveted PROGRESS Title at their Chapter 55 event back in September and now Dunne has his shot at retribution.

You can watch the bout in the coming weeks via the Lucha Forever On Demand service.
