The first of these matches will see Warren Banks return to a PROGRESS ring for the first time since coming so close to defeating Jonathan Gresham for the PROGRESS World Championship at The 10th Anniversary show in late March. He will face the German veteran Axel Tischer.

Joe Hendry, the Scottish superstar making waves across the world, will make his long-awaited PROGRESS Wrestling debut when he faces a man making his first PROGRESS appearance since 2019, Rickey Shane Page.

Rounding out the tournament bracket is another man making an eagerly-anticipated return to PROGRESS, Big Damo, facing the youngest competitor in the tournament, representing North West Strong, Luke Jacobs.
