Sounds like an interesting card. I’ve only seen a few Progress shows, but I’ve really enjoyed all of them - going to make a point to watch more in 2018.
I’m looking forward to seeing that hardcore match. Been wanting to watch Clint Margera and have only heard good things about Drew Parker. Those final 2 matches were likely fantastic and it’s always nice to see Rampage in Progress as that guy is forever over in that company.
I am on the progress website now. I am considering adding another subscription to my life. My question is how quickly do they get shows up. I see the unboxing event part one up from December. But I do not see the unboxing event part 2 that everyone is talking about up.
For whatever reason, ever since I started following PROGRESS and subscribing to their streaming service (which actually has a ton of other non-PROGRESS shows as well, including a lot of Smash Wrestling), I’ve kept myself from learning results of shows before I can watch them. Especially helpful for this show, which had a lot of good surprises. In addition to Ospreay returning and Gallagher coming in (making up for the WWE UK Title Match with Dunne not happening at their New York event, which I attended), TK Cooper popped up again, claiming he’ll be good to go next year and requesting a title shot at his buddy Banks.
Another really fun card, and Banks vs. Ospreay I thought was incredible.
That Dunne/Gallagher match had such a big fight feel to it as well. PROGRESS are really good at making matches feel important. It helped that Gallagher looked so serious from the second he came out.
I’ve had the service since August and they do what they can to have the events up within a week of the event. Unfortunately it doesn’t always work out that way for whatever reason. Jon does all the editing on his own so if the show is in another country or is over multiple days it can take longer to go up. The Cologne show took a couple of months, New York and Boston took a few weeks, Unboxing 2 went up seven days after the show itself… but I’ve seen shows go up quicker. It just depends on when Jon can get to it really. Overall though, it’s a great service and it’s relatively easy to stay spoiler free.
