Man Like DeReiss: A Standout Year in PROGRESS
Man Like DeReiss has been on a tear in 2024, delivering standout performances that have solidified his reputation as one of the brightest stars in PROGRESS Wrestling. DeReiss has dazzled fans with his ability to mix high-flying agility with hard-hitting offense in the ring and his charismatic persona outside the ring.
Whether in singles competition or as part of a team with Leon Slater as Boisterous Behaviour, DeReiss has consistently showcased his versatility and determination. His recent battles, including a stellar showing in the four-way match for the PROGRESS Men’s World Championship at Chapter 175, have left fans and critics alike singing his praises. Now, DeReiss has the opportunity to test his skills against an international star in one of the most intriguing matchups of Chapter 176.
Richard Holliday: A Global Star on the Rise
Richard Holliday arrives in PROGRESS Wrestling with an impressive résumé and a growing reputation as one of the most polished performers on the independent scene. Holliday has been making waves in Game Changer Wrestling (GCW) in 2024, where his mix of technical prowess, striking ability, and undeniable confidence has captured the attention of fans worldwide.
Before his GCW success, Holliday was a cornerstone of Major League Wrestling (MLW), where he rose to prominence as one-half of the MLW World Tag Team Champions alongside none other than former AEW World Champion MJF. As part of the Dynasty faction, Holliday demonstrated his knack for storytelling and character work, traits that have only grown stronger since his departure from MLW.
Holliday’s debut in PROGRESS Wrestling represents a significant moment for both him and the promotion, as he looks to establish himself as a force to be reckoned with on the UK wrestling scene.
Both men are riding high on their respective successes in 2024, and this match could serve as a defining moment for each competitor. For DeReiss, it’s a chance to prove he can hang with the best international talent. For Holliday, it’s an opportunity to make an immediate impact in PROGRESS Wrestling against one of its biggest stars.
