PROGRESS World Champion Cara Noir will be defending his title against British pro wrestling legend Jody Fleisch this weekend at the Chapter 115: For The Hearts That Never Played In Tune show.

Noir has defended his title since the return of the company in 2021, defeating the likes of Dan Moloney, Natural Progression Series winner Luke Jacobs, Kid Lykos and ELIJAH.

Jody Fleisch has been a staple on the UK independent wrestling scene since the early 2000s, as well as being one of the top high-flyers in the world during his illustrious career.

Fleisch has appeared for the likes of GCW, Ring of Honor and PWG, where he appeared as part of the BOLA tournament in 2018.

Speaking to GiveMeSport, Jody Fleisch said that he is looking forward to facing the reigning Champion.

“I’m really looking forward to my match with Cara. I’m on a good run of form for progress. I know I’m faster. I know I’m stronger. He’s a strange cat and he uses that to his advantage when he gets the chance but there really isn’t much in wrestling that haven’t seen and dealt with. Bring it on.”
