I LOVE THIS COMPANY!

I think Nixon is due in Orlando any time now, shame, her Wizard was so shiny

by Marky Sat 25 Mar 2017, 8:04 am

I actually think British Strong Style v South Pacific Power Trip was the best match, superb throughout. Travis and TK slowly turning face by association. Ringkampf v Hunter Brothers was also very good, Ringkampf are tremendous and although British Strong Style are defending against the Hunter Brothers on Sunday I think Walter and Dieter Jr will be the ones to take the Shields off of BSS.

Chapter 46 - I like to chill here & shoot dinosaurs Results :

by NickisBHAFC Mon 08 May 2017, 10:35 pm

Zac Gibson joins the growing list of people in super strong style.

I generally feel like a little kid at Christmas. So excited

by Fernando Mon 08 May 2017, 10:56 pm

Entrants so far - 6 to go
Travis Banks
Trent Seven
Zack Gibson
Jeff Cobb/Matanza Cueto
Jack Sexsmith
Flamita/Octagon Jr
Jimmy Havoc
Pastor William Eaver
Winner of Spud vs Nathan Cruz
Winner of Flash Morgan Webster vs James Drake

by Dr Gregory House MD Mon 08 May 2017, 11:11 pm

Just for the record Flamita isn't Octagon Jr anymore, he got sick of Octagon Sr hassling him in restaurants and sending thugs to beat him up

by Fernando Mon 08 May 2017, 11:16 pm

Lovely

Was just for people who weren't sure who he was anyway Smile

Would think Bate (since Trent is)/Riddle/Walter will be apart of it

Would be nice to see Shane Strickland/Matt Cross back & id guess the other 2 go to whoever doesn't leave Chapter 48 with the title

It's not a big deal, just wanted to an excuse to tell that story, only in Mexico Laugh

Riddle and Walter are a great shout, I've also heard David Starr is pretty much a lock, I think he may have announced it without realising how Progress like to slow roll these things

by Fernando Tue 09 May 2017, 9:07 pm

Zack Sabre Jr is entrant no.9

by Dr Gregory House MD Tue 09 May 2017, 9:49 pm

Interested to see who's missing out now

by Fernando Tue 09 May 2017, 10:05 pm

Yeah shall be a good tournament regardless Cool

People left out so far (5 spots left after Chapter 48)

David Starr
WALTER
Matt Riddle
Tyler Bate
Mark Andrews
Mark Haskins
Matt Cross
Shane Strickland
El Ligero
Dave Mastiff

by Dr Gregory House MD Tue 09 May 2017, 10:43 pm

I have a feeling Progress are trying to distance themselves from WoS guys and I don't see Strickland or Cross

I think Haskins, Andrews & Starr are locks

So that leaves Walter, Riddle & Bate for the remaing 2 spots

I agree though on paper this looks to be the best SSS16 yet and I think going to 3 days can only help things as it'll give the later tournament matches more room to breathe

by NickisBHAFC Tue 09 May 2017, 10:51 pm

Marty Scurll and Joe Coffey are the 2 I really want.

Buzzing that ZSJ is in there!

by Marky Tue 09 May 2017, 10:54 pm

Last year Day 2 was manic. A 10 man match followed by 4 quarter finals, 2 semi finals and the final Laugh

Guessing;
Day 1: 8 first round matches
Day 2: 4 quarter finals and Women's Championship Tournament Final
Day 3: Fraking chaos and the semis/final

Maybe Riddle won't be in it so he can defend the Atlas title instead...

Marty is in Best of Super Juniors this year with Ospreay so you'll have to get on New Japan to get your Marty Tournament fix Wink

by NickisBHAFC Tue 09 May 2017, 11:02 pm

I recon

Night 1 - first round plus the women's match.

Night 2 - Quarter finals, All the belts.

Night 3 - Semi Finals, 3 Random matches and the final

Meltzer is reporting Zack for the G1 as well which is excellent news

First round is 8 matches. Normal cards have 6 or 7. Doubt it'll be anything extra.

Night 2 - Quarter finals, All the belts.
Tag Champs are in the Tournament so that depends on how they do.

Night 3 - Semi Finals, 3 Random matches and the final

by NickisBHAFC Thu 11 May 2017, 3:44 pm

I hope bubblegum comes out and attacks James drake

by Fernando Thu 11 May 2017, 9:06 pm

3 to go then

by NickisBHAFC Thu 11 May 2017, 9:29 pm

He any good?

My mates are raving about him

by NickisBHAFC Thu 11 May 2017, 9:30 pm

Final 3

Haskins and Andrews.

Flash and Drake will be a no contest.

by Dr Gregory House MD Thu 11 May 2017, 10:09 pm

I like Starr, he's done great work with Walter in WXW

Smallman said that there will only be 4 repeat competitors in the tournament this year, Gibson & ZSJr make 2, and imagine Haskins & Andrews would be the final 2 which means no Walter unfortunately, though I'm still holding out hope for Riddle

by NickisBHAFC Fri 12 May 2017, 12:35 pm

Suspect Riddle will defend his belt one night. Maybe a rematch against Rampage.

by Dr Gregory House MD Mon 15 May 2017, 5:28 pm

Final 3 SSS16 entrants will be announced tonight

I'm guessing Andrews, Haskins & one other probably Riddle

by Dr Gregory House MD Mon 15 May 2017, 7:02 pm

Haskins is entrant No 14

by Fernando Mon 15 May 2017, 8:04 pm

Mandrews no.15

Id be surprised if Riddle isn't no.16.

by Dr Gregory House MD Mon 15 May 2017, 8:26 pm

It was fun seeing some people's predictions for the final 3 on the Facebook page, can't tell if they were serious or just wishful thinking

by Dr Gregory House MD Mon 15 May 2017, 8:29 pm

I think Riddle is probably favourite for No 16, otherwise is guess Strickland or Brookes, anything else would surprise me

by Dr Gregory House MD Mon 15 May 2017, 9:01 pm

It's Riddle

by Fernando Mon 15 May 2017, 9:18 pm

Well that's great would of better to have Flamita as last pick making it an actual surprise tbh.

by Dr Gregory House MD Mon 15 May 2017, 9:33 pm

So in summary

David Starr
Tyler Bate
ZSJ
Zack Gibson
Flamita
Jimmy Havoc
Jeff Cobb
Nathan Cruz
Jack Sexsmith
William Eaver
Travis Banks
Trent Seven
Flash Morgan Webster
Mark Haskins
Mark Andrews
Matt Riddle

Personally I fancy Banks to win, either beating Riddle or one of the Moustache boys in the final

by Marky Mon 15 May 2017, 10:54 pm

I'd narrow the list of potential winners down to;

Bate, ZSJ, Havoc, Banks, Haskins, Riddle

by Dr Gregory House MD Mon 15 May 2017, 11:00 pm

I think Sexsmith has an outside shot as the Progress booking team seem to be really high on his story, though I think he might go out to a BSS guy in the semis

My guess for now

Banks over Riddle and Trent over Sexsmith in the semis

Banks to beat Trent in the final

by Dr Gregory House MD Mon 15 May 2017, 11:00 pm

Flamita vs Andrews has to happen surely?

by Dr Gregory House MD Mon 15 May 2017, 11:03 pm

I don't think Sabre is a realistic winner, as Progress would realistically be his 4th highest priority at best

by Marky Mon 15 May 2017, 11:24 pm

ZSJ has done so much in Progress without actually winning the title ever. I think it would be apt while he's collecting Indy belts to finally get a reign, especially while he's not going to WWE anytime soon.

I agree he's not going to WWE but Ospreay just had to drop Progress from his schedule and he's arguably less busy that Sabre particularly with the G1 & BOLA coming up he's going to be booked out from July-September

If you've got a spare £3k you can name your own Progress chapter

by Fernando Wed 17 May 2017, 3:09 pm

That wouldn't stop Jim Cornette Progress - Page 4 3559488474

They are running a show in New York in August.

by NickisBHAFC Mon 22 May 2017, 8:52 pm

Annoying it's the week before Summer Slam really.
