I'll be at Fight Club PRO on Friday in Wolverhampton, where Toni Storm and Ilja Dragunov will be making their debuts with the promotion. Schadenfreude (Chris Brookes and Kyle Fletcher) will also challenge The Besties In The World for the Tag Team Titles. Also this week, PROGRESS hold their second non-canon throwback show, this one set in 1988, while ICW debut their two-day King of Hawners trios tournament on Sunday and Bank Holiday Monday. Also OTT holds their next Belfast event with Jack Atlas taking on Jordan Devlin for the OTT title, Valkyrie tries to take Raven Creed’s OTT Women’s title, The Besties in the World against Moustache Mountain for the tag titles and the first time match of WALTER vs. Tucker. STACKED weekend in British wrestling.

Notes from Fight Club PRO last night... {Spoiler}Schadenfreude won the Fight Club PRO Tag Team Titles back from the Besties In The World, declared that no-one could stop them... and then WALTER returned to wreck everyone. Think he may have killed Kid Lykos.
A slightly surprising result, though not if you're following trends with their booking, saw Dan Moloney beat Ilja Dragunov - clearly it's OK for Ilja to lose clean in his indie appearances. Toni Storm won though against Valkyrie, that wasn't really in doubt!

I don’t look at this thread nearly enough. OTT put up a promo from Tucker promoting his match against WALTER because it's genuinely really good. I never watched the original UK Championship Tournament, so my first exposure to Tucker was NXT:UK TV. I was a fan of his from that match against Ashton Smith — A match where I thought he made a better impression. My favorite NXT:UK TV match is Tucker Vs. Jordan Devlin, which I thought was just fantastic. I really hope he does well in the future. This promo made me want to see more of him.

They’ve fought one on one in promotions all over the world but for David Starr to get his OTT title shot against Jordan Devlin, he has to beat a man he’s never beaten...

As we all know, Darby Allin’s making his AEW debut on June 29th but it won’t be one of his first matches as an AEW talent. That comes at WrestleRama against one of Europe’s fastest rising stars, Scotty Davis.

What's happened to Great O-Kharn? I know he was sent to Europe by NJPW for his excursion but seems like he's disappeared since the New Japan US Shows in February.

I'd like to think New Japan took one look at his gimmick, and told him to come home.
I heavily recommend PAC vs. Michael Oku from yesterday's Rev Pro Cockpit show, a true star making performance for the man also known as The OJMO.

Couple more matches from PROGRESS and OTT
For the Newcastle show in July, PROGRESS announced that Do Not Resuscitate face the debuting More Than Hype in 6 man tag team action.
And for the WrestleRama event later this month, we have Jordan Devlin vs. Sean Guinness for the OTT belt and just announced today, Bandido vs. Rey Horus!

Meiko Satomura will be challenging for the PROGRESS Women's Championship at Chapter 95: Still Chasing at Alexandra Palace on September 15th. The title is currently held by Jordynne Grace, so that will be quite the match if Grace stays as the champion until then.

Sierra Loxton got injured today at the EVE show.
They also confirmed that Jordynne Grace vs. Laura di Matteo is happening at Queendom II.
I cannot wait for that show.
Edit: also, it is Session GOTH in the death match. Martina apparently went nuts in the forest and is now just Goth in EVE canon...

I know I did this as a thread but I might as well put this here too. This Friday, for the first time ever in Ireland, Jonathan Gresham takes on rising star Michael May in a match that was on Gresham’s list at the start of the year. I’m absolutely psyched for it.

Charlie Morgan announced her retirement at WrestleQueendom 2. It is ungodly sad.
At the same show, Wrestle Friends (Erin Angel and Jetta) were crowned the first EVE tag champions, Jamie Hayter won the International title, and Viper beat Kay Lee Ray for the EVE title only to lose it immediately to a heel turning Rhia O'Reilly.
It was an outstanding show.

I was there live. A really fun night and exciting throughout. The Charlie Morgan segment I felt I missed something, she's retiring right, but who retires from a leg/ankle injury? what's the story?
