Gallagher's a great British technical grapplefuck guy. He wrestled Johnny Kidd at one of the recent PROGRESS shows and it was really entertaining.

Jenkem Delivery posted:How long does it take to get PWG DVDs shipped when you purchase through the winter sale? I ordered almost two weeks ago and haven't gotten anything It is VERY variable. I got a set that I ordered in late December around January 7th last year. But I also ordered another set and straight up didn't receive them, even after they got back in touch with me to drop the Paypal dispute.

I Before E posted:Is that a War Boy? Basically, yeah. Robbo is like 5'4" and loves curb stomping dudes and then spitting on them. Though I'm kind of surprised that he's in a singles match on this show, since Chapter 41 ended with him and Ospreay reforming the Swords of Essex after Ospreay's heel turn.

Critical posted:Hi. If you're looking to get caught up quickly, Chapter 39 is a great place to start. Chapter 28 also has the beginnings of a lot of feuds, including Tommy End vs Marty Scurll and the start of what would eventually become British Strong Style. But if you have the time and inclination, I would definitely start with the Havoc storyline and work your way to the present. PROGRESS's long-term storytelling is second to none.

sportsgenius86 posted:Are the early shows worth watching? Oh, they are all totally worth watching, especially because they start building storylines in those early chapters (Havoc, Ospreay, Scurll et al.) that eventually pay off amazingly. The rise of Jimmy Havoc from deathmatch underdog to the most hated wrestler in Britain is probably the best story I've seen in indie wrestling. I just know it was daunting for me as a new fan to hammer through 50+ hours of wrestling to get caught up with what's going on at the moment. I started with Chapter 20 and kept going forward, but I would really love to go back and see those builds. They start running shows at the Electric Ballroom, their current London home, at Chapter 12 and go from one taped commentator to two live ones at Chapter 20 if you're a bit of a production snob like I am. If you watch this promo package on Havoc's turn and start with Chapter 12, you should be good to go storyline-wise.

Basic Chunnel posted:what's up with the Who Dars Wins tee and the wrist kissing, is there another Dar brother Grado, Sha Samuels and Noam Dar were in an ICW faction together called The Pinky Party that was formed to combat Red Lighting and HIS faction, the Black Label. And at Barramania, Grado and Joe Coffey both joined a NEW heel faction to align themselves with Red Lightning, the guy who's been making their lives hell for like 2 years. ICW is the swerviest promotion in the world.

Norwegian Rudo posted:Of the ones I've seen mentioned I'd put Travis Banks above the rest. He's the finished article. Top prospects I'd say Marius Al-Ani and TK Cooper. Yeah, the only reason I didn't mention Banks and Cooper by name is that they already worked those Axxess shows, so they've presumably been on WWE's radar. And one of the reasons I really love the U.K. scene is because of all of the varied body types. You get big lads like Mastiff and WALTER and lanky giants like Brookes and Eddie Dennis amongst the smaller cruiserweight guys. I wouldn't have been worried about WWE signing them, but then we got Owens, Killian Dain and Heavy Machinery.

Seeking match/show recommendations Sumerian Death Squad vs The Hunter Brothers (Chapter 20) Mark Haskins vs Tommaso Ciampa (Chapter 22) Chris Hero vs Mark Andrews (Chapter 30 Night One) Mark Haskins vs Johnny Gargano (Chapter 32) South Pacific Power Trip vs Ring Kampf (Chapter 43) If you're looking to catch up to the current storyline stuff, I'd start at Chapter 39. The entire show leads to a 7-man elimination match to crown a new champion.

tnimark posted:I have another Progress question. Does the commentary change at some point? As of Chapter 12 it’s just been this one guy and he has absolutely zero energy or enthusiasm. Chapter 20 is when they switch from one-man prerecorded to a two-man live booth and it makes all the difference in the world. It's where I started and, though I would like to go back and watch some of those earlier shows, I haven't regretted it.
