THIS. IS. PROGRESS.
A documentary exploring the inner workings of the UK's leading, independent wrestling promotion, PROGRESS WRESTLING.

Told from the perspective of their promoters, wrestlers and fans, THIS.IS.PROGRESS charts the companies ascension to the heady heights of the UK wrestling scene whilst dissecting what makes their company stand out as one of the most exciting promotions not just in the UK, but the world.

It only just hit me that Chapter 46 'I like to chill out here and shoot some dinosaurs' is named after what Haskin's son said 8:18! Mind blown, that's really cool of progress to do that

[@prowrasslinfan3400]

when I heard jim smallman say that progress was everyone's home no matter where they were from cause they fucking love us during the introduction of the show almost cried.

[@WeeklyTubeShow2]

I don't understand why ROH can't have presentation like this.

[@CrystalFissure]

Excellent production and a great little story. Had the pleasure of being there at Chapter 32 during a trip to the UK from Adelaide, Australia, and it was the best wrestling show I'd ever been to.

[@jakobdelion2110]

I had the pleasure to witness PROGRESS Wrestling live at Chapter 39. There is nothing like it; the people, the wrestlers and the atmosphere, cannot be imitated or recreated. I watched this documentary with tears in my eyes knowing that I have met Paul (who made my experience so much more better) and now have experienced the magic of PROGRESS Wrestling. If you're reading this; do yourself a favour, go to an PROGRESS event.

[@spencerdonnelly4995]

I will man!! I need to get in there quick when the tickets are on sale. Everyone says it's awesome, I need to experience this!

[@marcgalllagher118]

You guys and ICW are making the British scene great, keep it up!

[@KBox1991]

Progress ICW RevPro and so far WCPW. we have 1 of the best markets for wrestling now

[@Craigstarspud]

Matt UK1 I really dont like WCPW but I like the rest WCPW is just a big import fest imo

[@AlexGledhill237]

Progress seems like it truly loves the fans and that is a special aspect for a promotion, something which a lot of companies lack. The brotherhood is here and it is here to stay

[@yeldarbfan]

The first progress wrestling show my missus ever watched was sss16 this year and she is not even a wrestling fan but since seeing progress she has became one and its done to how amazing the shows are and how awsome the entire progress family are at every show we go to

[@Kingjames17]

This convinced me to sign up for on demand. Good shit. I'm on chapter 1, Please don't push Loco mike manson.

[@conormurphy2120]

Progress should do a show in Dublin ,Ireland

[@ShakeHandsWithBeef9946]

All I have to say is THANK YOU PROGRESS

[@tayojones9460]

should have been longer, but still a great documentary. progress is British wrestling at its best.

[@AVgameplay89]

Progress is awesome that's for sure much support over here in the US plus... you can see the passion from everyone can't wait to see more in the future!! This is Progress!!!

[@savagemadness9705]

Amazing story. Amazing Promotion. Hope they continue to grow

[@dod6031]

I'm glad there's a new image for British wrestling coming from places like Progress, ICW, RevPro and WCPW.

[@chasser12345]

Had to miss the screening to catch my train, so glad I can see it now!

[@CrystalFissure]

Will you be doing more of these, guys? Would love to see additional detailed perspectives from guys like Ospreay, Scurll, Rampage, Mastiff, Gibson etc.

[@xTheMaxinho]

That's what you call Progress! (See what I did there😂) Loved every single chapter I've watched, much love from Germany.

[@EManFXW]

Fantastic documentary! You guys have a big fan here in the States. Pretty much every current major British talent in the business today I discovered through watching your shows. Progress gives me a certain vibe that reminds me of the days of attending shows from the original ECW. If & when I make a trip to the UK I must come out to a show. Keep it up!!

Awesome short documentary! I love it! Congrats and regards from Wrestling Portugal's Champion ;)

[@Na_Desportiva]

Luís Salvador a tentar ser bookado na PROGRESS? ahah.

Nah, estou bem em Portugal :)

[@pmartins9799]

Mas vamos ser sinceros Tu gostavas de ganhar o progress championship nao gostavas?

[@charliestephens2638]

I hope to go see a Progress Wrestling show soon as possible!! This. Is. Progress.

[@rubbertoe6384]

I've been watching pro wrestling for 13 years, and I've never seen something like progress

[@davidsewell3367]

Going to my first Progress show on Sunday ,don’t really know what to expect so have a mixture of excitement and nervousness

[@llbmoneyll304]

Fantastic mini documentary

[@wallyrosario654]

Excellent documentary, not the biggest fan of the promotion but getting a better look at it from the perspective of the trio and guys like Havoc and Haskins as well as fans especially the Super Fan (I love that guy) this is honestly one of my favorite shows promotions. From an American teenager from the northeast who loves wrestling I just wanna say I love everything you guys do, and I'll always respect everyone involved with Progress for making it what it's become today: one of if not the best wrestling promotion in all of Europe!

[@kristofercarter9470]

awesome show keep up the good work.

[@RamboAAK]

Gonna attend my first Progress in Birmingham, first show of 2017! Who else is gonna be there??

[@matthewjackson3408]

RamboAAK what date is the 1 in birmingham

[@RamboAAK]

Matthew Jackson It's already passed. It was on January 15th, unfortunately I couldn't make it, but apparently Finn Bàlor made an appearance. :O

[@matthewjackson3408]

Big thing them

[@TheViandox59]

Awsome documentary about the AWSOME thing that you have created !! THIS IS PROGRESS !!

[@izzey0729]

I hope the best for this company

[@alexcastillo98_]

This is fucking PROGRESS :')

[@JaimeD.]

Who's watching this documentary, which is still in *PROGRESS,* in 2019? Note: I want NXT & PROGRESS to clash. Just like how NXT clashes with EVOLVE the past months. 😊

[@thefrenchspy81]

Great doc. I just subbed to demand progress last week and have started from the beginning. Loving it so far and hope you come to Chicago one day.

[@jdixon390]

When you live in middlesbrough too and see the local scenery on a documentary

[@Na_Desportiva]

CM Punk should find his passional for Pro Wrestling again in PROGRESS.

[@GrownUpKid94]

Pedro Mateus Holy shit, never realized how bad I wanted this.

[@jbasti227]

Pedro Mateus That'd be amazing

[@ImmortalTekkerss]

That’d be great but progress is mainly about British talent, brining punk would elevate the company but a lot of new fans would only watch it for Punk, Progress would rather have 500 fans that watch the whole show than 5,000 who will just watch one match.

[@buddybarlow9604]

Paul, you're a really good dude man I'm from the states and i noticed all these talented wrestlers coming into the WWE/NXT from Progress...IMO..progress is churning out some of the best talent in the business right now and thats a huge thanks to you fellas across the pond.

[@quicktime3903]

I have watched this at least 10 times

[@unproffesionalwrestling9930]

11:01 bloody hell also I'm thinking about going to the projo at some point this year

[@mattcarman]

What’s happened in Brit wrestling recently, please don’t let that hinder what the people in this documentary have done. These people have spent years of sacrifice and you cannot dispute how much love they have for the industry. I cannot wait to see what is next. Jon, Jim, Glen. Thank You.

[@therandomer6261]

I share a birthday with progress and that's lovely

[@KBox1991]

[@jackbonzafanforlife194]

[@HeavyMetalBeliever]

I think the staff was based on the Eagle standard carried by Roman legions. But.... I dunno.

[@ShakeHandsWithBeef9946]
