Mark Haskins Talks PROGRESS Bout with Matt Riddle

PROGRESS recently announced who new NXT Superstar Matt Riddle would be facing at Wembley Arena. The ‘King of Bros’ will be making his final independent appearance against Mark Haskins for Chapter 75 ‘Hello Wembley’ on September 30th.

Haskins is one of the most well respected veterans in the UK scene. The former PROGRESS World Champion had to relinquish his belt and has been seeking a chance to regain it since. Haskins lost to Tyler Bate in their Chapter 74 match which meant that he wouldn’t get a shot at WALTER for this upcoming Wembley Chapter.

Haskins has taken to Twitter to discuss what the Wembley show means for the UK scene. The ‘Underrated’ star stated “To think we’ve reached the peak of British Wrestling would be naive. This might only be the start of something HUGE. Don’t become content, keep working and pushing forward because we could be the generation that changes everything.”

Here’s the full announced card for the event:

• PROGRESS Women’s Champion Jinny vs Millie McKenzie
• PROGRESS World Champion WALTER vs Tyler Bate
• Eddie Dennis vs Mark Andrews
• Jimmy Havoc vs Paul Robinson
• Thunderb*stard Tag Team Title Match
• Ilja Dragunov vs Pete Dunne
• Mark Haskins vs. Matt Riddle
