Moustache Mountain (Trent Seven & Tyler Bate) will be taking on the Grizzled Young Veterans, comprised of Zack Gibson and James Drake.

Another massive tag team bout has been announced and will see the new team of Jimmy Havoc & Mark Haskins take on Jack Sexsmith and a mystery partner. Sexsmith has been teasing a number of names to appear alongside him, including ‘The Game’ Triple H (although this obviously isn’t likely…).

The winners of the two bouts will be deciding the stipulation for their eventual Tag Team Title match at ‘Ally Pally.’

OTT Release Hilarious Free Match involving Tyler Bate & Pete Dunne

Not too long ago we posted some GIFs from an Attack! Pro Wrestling show involving a gimmick switch match between Pete Dunne & Tyler Bate.

If you were a fan of that bout then the match below if definitely worth taking a look at. Over the Top Wrestling (OTT) has released a ‘six’ man tag team match featuring British Strong Style (Tyler Bate, Trent Seven and Pete Dunne).

This is a completely different look at some of the top performers in WWE’s UK Division, particularly Pete Dunne, enjoy.

PROGRESS Announce First Two Matches for Chapter 50 feat. WWE UK Stars

PROGRESS has announced the first two matches for their Chapter 50 event ‘I Give it Six Months.’

First up is a bout for the PROGRESS Tag Team Championships between current title holders British Strong Style (Tyler Bate & Trent Seven) and rising stars on the British scene #CCK. This will be #CCK’s official debut in PROGRESS and looks set to be a barnburner of a match.

Also confirmed is Toni Storm’s first defence of her PROGRESS Women’s Championship. Toni won the gold back at the Super Strong Style 16 event against Jinny and Laura Di Matteo. Her opponent Kay Lee Ray is one of the top performers in the ICW Women’s division so this match has the potential to be a show stealer.

Further Information on the WWE UK Championship Series

Ryan Satin of the Pro Wrestling Sheet has released further details on the WWE UK division and the brand’s upcoming bi-weekly events.

The current plan calls for tapings every six weeks and for live events to run every other week in the UK featuring the UK contracted talent. The time frame for the tapings has not yet been finalised and it may well be several more months until tapings for the series begin.

The top stars in the division, namely Pete Dunne, Trent Seven, Tyler Bate, Wolfgang and Mark Andrews have reportedly signed US contracts that will allow them to drop in on the Florida based Performance Center when needed. These top stars will likely remain in the United Kingdom to focus on building the UK brand rather than continue to work cameo appearances on NXT.

PROGRESS Featured Heavily at WWE UK Tapings, Historic Record Set

The tapings for the new WWE UK Championship show on the WWE Network took place this past weekend and featured a number of top UK Independent stars.

Several of the performers over the two days are regulars for top UK promotion PROGRESS, including WWE UK Champion Tyler Bate, Trent Seven, Mark Andrews, James Drake and PROGRESS Champion Pete Dunne.

The main event of Sunday’s tapings saw Trent Seven face Pete Dunne in a bout to determine the number 1 contender to Tyler Bate’s WWE UK Championship. When Dunne made his entrance he was seen ‘biting’ the PROGRESS Championship (which is part of his persona in the London based company). This sparked a huge reaction from the crowd inside Epic Studios and is possibly the first non-WWE Championship to be held inside a WWE ring since Tazz faced Triple H on Smackdown in April, 2000 with the ECW Championship around his waist.

PROGRESS Co-owner Jim Smallman also appeared in front of the live crowd to add to the surreal nature of these historic tapings.

Heavy ICW Influence on This Week’s NXT Show

This week’s episode of NXT featured a heavy UK presence, the UK Championship match between Tyler Bate & Jack Gallagher arguably stole the show and Scottish based promotion ICW heavily influenced the show.

Every bout from the show featured ICW alumni: Alesiter Black, Tyler Bate, Drew McIntyre and Nikki Cross have all performed for the company in prominent roles and it speaks volumes for the importance of the UK scene on worldwide wrestling right now.

Pete Dunne (who was seen at ringside) is challenging for the ICW World Heavyweight Championship this Sunday against current champion Joe Coffey. Coffey took the belt from WWE UK star Trent Seven.

South Pacific Power Trip (TK Cooper & Travis Banks) w/ Dahlia Black b. Shane Strickland & Sami Callihan – The SPPT continue their dominant form with an impressive win over Strickland/Callihan. Travis Banks looks set to have his biggest year ever and there is a good chance that he wins the Super Strong Style 16 tournament in July/August

PROGRESS Atlas Championship MatchMatt Riddle b. Trent Seven – Riddle applied the Bromission in something of an upset. Many were predicting that Trent take the ATLAS title as the British Strong Style stable look to dominate the PROGRESS title scenes.

WWE United Kingdom Championship MatchTyler Bate b. Mark Andrews – Bate records his first championship defence outside of a WWE/NXT ring against an impressive Mark Andrews, certainly one for the history books

PROGRESS Championship MatchPete Dunne b. Mark Haskins – Who is left for Pete Dunne to defeat? After this submission win against Mark Haskins the well has run pretty dry in the PROGRESS Championship scene, possibly a chance for a new main eventer to rise?

Fight Club: Pro Weekend Results, Pete Dunne’s Triple H Entrance, Nixon Newell Says Farewell

PROGRESS: More Chapter 45 Matches Announced

PROGRESS have announced two more bouts for their upcoming Chapter 45 event: ‘Galvanise.’

‘Flash’ Morgan Webster made his in-ring return at Chapter 44 when he teamed with Mark Haskins and Jimmy Havoc against British Strong Style. Although his team took the win it was Havoc that secured the winning pinfall, therefore Webster missed out on a PROGRESS title shot. His opponent for Chapter 44 will be Nathan Cruz, who himself lost at Chapter 44 against his former Origin stable mate El Ligero.

There is a lot at stake in this bout, the uncertain future of WWE contracted talents such as PROGRESS Champion Pete Dunne, Mark Andrews, Trent Seven and WWE UK Champion Tyler Bate opens the door for the next batch of possible main eventers to shine and there is certainly an opportunity for both of these performers to move up to that next level if necessary.

The next announced match is a Semi-Final bout in the Natural Progression Series tournament. This is the first Women’s tournament in company history and the winner will be crowned the first ever PROGRESS Women’s Champion.

Crowd favourite Nixon Newell will be taking on ‘heat magnet’ Jinny. This is Jinny’s first Chapter match in quite some time and she is likely to be win the entire tournament, a win for Nixon would be considered a huge upset but as PROGRESS are looking to establish their official Women’s division surprises could be in store.

PROGRESS Chapter 45 Main Event and Tag Title Matches Announced

One of the biggest matches in PROGRESS history took place this past Sunday at Chapter 44 ‘Old Man Yells at Cloud’ as Jimmy Havoc became the Number 1 Contender to Pete Dunne’s PROGRESS Championship.

As part of a 6-man tag team bout fan favourite Havoc pinned Dunne (a member of the stable British Strong Style) to earn himself a title match with a stipulation of his choosing. Havoc opted to cash in his title opportunity against the ‘Bruiserweight’ at Chapter 45: ‘Galvanise.’

It has also been confirmed that the match will be contested under ‘No DQ’ rules, which will suit Deathmatch specialist Jimmy Havoc. This match looks set to be an extremely bloody affair.

The second bout announced for Chapter 45 is for the PROGRESS Tag Team Championships. WWE UK Champion Tyler Bate and his British Strong Style teammate Trent Seven will be taking on the South Pacific Power Trip (TK Cooper and Travis Banks).

Travis Banks made his singles debut for PROGRESS at Chapter 44 in an excellent showing against fellow debutant Jordan Devlin, chances are that this may well be the breakup of the SPPT team as Banks looks set to be one of the breakout stars for PROGRESS in 2017.

PROGRESS Chapter 44 ‘Old Man Yells At Cloud’ Results

Here are the results from PROGRESS’ Chapter 44 event ‘Old Man Yells At Cloud.’ The show took place at a sold out Electric Ballroom in Camden, UK.

James Drake b. Damon Moser – This was a relatively shot match that saw WWE UK Tournament competitor James Drake won with the Mr Mayhem DDT. There are reports that Moser was injured during the bout thus the quick conclusion.

Dahlia Black (w/TK Cooper) b. Martina the Session Moth – This was a 1st round match in the Natural Progression Series to crown the first ever PROGRESS Women’s Champion as well as being Martina’s debut match for the company. Black took the win when TK Cooper interfered and cost Martina the bout

Travis Banks b. Jordan Devlin – Another PROGRESS debut here as WWE Tournament Competitor Jordan Devlin looked to beat tag team specialist Banks. Travis took the win after hitting a Buzzsaw Kick.

Pastor William Eaver b. Sebastian – Eaver took the win here after hitting the ‘Clothesline From Heaven’ in what was an extremely violent bout, definitely one worth watching on PROGRESS’ On Demand service.

Mark Andrews b. Shane Strickland – An absolutely fantastic match that saw Andrews win with the Shooting Star Press, after the match PROGRESS Co-Owner Jim Smallman asked Strickland to appear at the Orlando shows over Wrestlemania Weekend.

El Ligero b. Nathan Cruz – A hotly contested bout between two former Origin members saw Ligero take the win after reversing a Figure Four into an Inside Cradle. After the match Cruz removed Ligero’s mask.

Zack Gibson b. Jack Sexsmith – This match was all about Sexsmith proving himself as a viable championship  contender for the company and it certainly felt like his ‘coming out party.’ Gibson hit the Helter Skelter for the pinfall win.

Jimmy Havoc, Mark Haskins & Morgan Webster b. British Strong Style (Pete Dunne, Trent Seven & Tyler Bate) – The stakes for this match were extremely high. If Havoc, Haskins or Webster got a pinfall or submission victory then they would receive a title shot, however if one of them took a pinfall, countout or submission loss then they would ineligible to ANY title shot for 6 months. Havoc ended up taking the victory and title shot following an Acid Rainmaker on PROGRESS Champion Pete Dunne.

PROGRESS Announce Chapter 44 Main Event with HUGE Title Implications

PROGRESS’ last Chapter event saw the stunning return of ‘Flash’ Morgan Webster and former PROGRESS Champion Mark Haskins from injury. Their return during the British Strong Style beatdown of Jimmy Havoc was a huge hit with the PROGRESS faithful and it has lead to the main event for Chapter 44 – Old Man Yells at Cloud. Here is the press release for the event:

After the events at the end of Chapter 43, we have an enormous main event for Chapter 44 on 26th February in store.

British Strong Style (World Champion Pete Dunne and Tag Champions Trent Seven and Tyler Bate) will face the team of Jimmy Havoc, Mark Haskins and Flash Morgan Webster in a 6 man tag match that will, whatever happens, have implications for the coming months.
If Havoc, Haskins or Webster score a pin or submission on any member of British Strong Style, they’ll earn a title opportunity.

But, if any of those three get pinned or submit, they’ll be barred from any further title matches for 6 months.

High stakes. One man leaves Chapter 44 with a title shot, or heartbroken. Will the alliance of Havoc, Haskins and Webster be able to work together even though only one of them can potentially benefit? Or will the pack mentality of British Strong Style prevail, and eliminate one of the title contenders for the foreseeable future?

BRITISH STRONG STYLE vs HAVOC, HASKINS and WEBSTER headlines Chapter 44!
