Lucky Kid is unable to travel for both PROGRESS show so not only is there an 11th surprise spot open for the Proteus Rumble but Brookes and Gresham need a new partner for their 6 man street fight against Kingston and the soon to be former LAX.

Couple of big bits of news from the Natural Progression Series {Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler} Scotty Davis won the tournament, defeating the newest member of #DnR Danny Duggan in the final meaning he gets a guaranteed title match for whichever belt he chooses.
For the 6 man street fight, the person who came to the help of Brookes and Gresham was...Gresham’s wife Jordynne Grace! It didn’t help them get the win with Santana and Ortiz hitting the powerbomb/blockbuster combo onto Chris Brookes through chairs for the LAX/Kingston win.

There was an interesting chain of events at EVE last night... {Spoiler}Roxxy won the EVE Championship from Rhia O'Reilly, but the referee missed Jayla Dark running in and hitting O'Reilly with a Death Valley Driver to set it up. O'Reilly had the referee review the VAR, and the match was ruled void, and the title returned to O'Reilly. They had a rematch in the main event, where O'Reilly knocked Roxxy out with her knee brace.
Millie McKenzie qualified for SHE-1 in November, defeating Solo Darling. Charli Evans then came out, annoyed that her scheduled singles match with Holidead had been changed to a four way (Jetta and Trish Adora were added, Holidead won, pinning Adora), and demanded a singles match. When EVE wouldn't give her one, she put her SHE-1 spot on the line - Mercedes Martinez came out, and after about ten minutes, Martinez won to take Evans' SHE-1 spot away from her.

Breaking news from PROGRESS {Spoiler}{Spoiler}At the start of the tag title match...out comes Scotty Davis, Jordan Devlin in tow...he’s cashing in his guaranteed title shot on a tag title one. So we have a triple threat on our hands!
And in a repeat from last year’s ScrapperMania, Scotty makes Mark tap out and Davis goes from main show debutee to tag team champion in the space of one weekend

A very newsworthy PROGRESS show in addition to above... {Spoiler}We have a NEW PROGRESS Unified World Champion... but it's NOT David Starr. After Starr knocked WALTER out with the belt, Eddie Dennis emerged, returning after announcing he was leaving PROGRESS in July, and announced that his title contract from Wembley Arena last year still had two weeks remaining, and that he was cashing in to make it a three way... and three ways are no DQ, so a masked man entered and took Starr out with a steel chair - it was Mark Andrews! Eddie Dennis is the new PROGRESS Unified World Champion, and he and Mandrews as FSU are now heels together to F*** Shit Up!
Paul Robinson went the distance to become the first ever PROGRESS Proteus Champion, last eliminating newest Do Not Resuscitate member Danny Duggan in the Rumble. Other than former PROGRESS referee Chris Roberts returning to the biggest pop of the night, the biggest story here was NIWA and TK Cooper turning on Travis Banks and seemingly kicking him out of the South Pacific Power Trip.
In the most straightforward title change of the show, Meiko Satomura won the PROGRESS Women's Championship from Jordynne Grace in her first ever PROGRESS match.

{Spoiler}I’ll be honest, not being at the show so might seem different...there’s a massive WWE stink all over the finish for that.
And that’s sort of the trouble with this relationship and as it grows with Smallman probably moving to WWE and the like...every major decision is going to have that tint on it, decisions made for WWE’s best interests for NXT UK and nothing to do with the scene itself. Which is fine in itself but sort of hurts PROGRESS for me.

Lot of ICW news in the last couple of days, especially coming off that last episode recording but the one I somehow didn’t notice was that the first act confirmed for France 2000 is More Than Hype.

They haven’t outright said it’s the case but it looks like there’s going to be a double header of Schadenfreude shows in November.

JesusI think it'll be interesting with both companies reputations being in question for a variety of reasons who'd win out there because you can see a case where Rev Pro stack the card with big names and PROGRESS has the NXT UK connections in their back pocket.

PROGRESS beefed up their March show because it was up against a Cockpit show, but oddly didn't do so for Wrestle Queendom. Think they'll go all guns blazing against a Rev Pro York Hall show though.

I mean, I don't know how they could hurt have Queendom outside of WWE yanking Viper and KLR for some random reason, which I don't think they could do. {Spoiler}I could very easily see them doing a Dennis/Starr title match with Starr in kayfabe not being in Rev Pro anymore. And that's not even going to possible NXT draftees or whoever else could come in.
