PROGRESS Wrestling announced one new match for the card of their The Odyssey Tour 2026 event on September 6 at the O2 Ritz in Manchester, England.
This new match announced was a PROGRESS Men’s World Championship match of Malakai Black vs. Cara Noir (c).
⛵ Match Announcement: Manchester ⛵
In 2016, Malakai Black (then known as Tommy End) would compete for the Progress World Championship both before and after winning Super Strong Style 16. He would never win the big one.
Now 10 years later, Cara Noir reigns as Champion and is taking on all those who will challenge him. He has never faced Malakai Black one on one…
In Manchester, a historic dream match takes place with the Progress title on the line.
Cara Noir defends against Malakai Black. Can Cara Noir make it to Manchester as Champion? Will he be ready for the challenge of Malakai Black?
