the opportunity to take down the queen.\u00a0 Storm is, of course, the former champion and defeated Killer Kelly in her PROGRESS return.\u00a0 Laura Di Matteo has been on a roll since returning at Super Strong Style 16 and has won two matches on the bounce heading into this.\u00a0 Regardless of who wins both women have had issues with the House of Couture, and LDM has longstanding issues with\u00a0<strong>Jinny\u00a0<\/strong>so she would certainly\u00a0love to dethrone her arch rival.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Match 2: Anti Fun Police ( Los Federales Santos Jr. &amp; Damian Dunne) vs

be similar to the Anti-Fun-Police match with Havoc and Webster and Havoc and Haskins vs GYV where there will be cheating and attempts to outcheat each other.\u00a0 The fun police will be relying on Los Federales and his power game to get them the win against the crafty champions.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Match 3: PROGRESS Women&#8217;s Championship: Jinny (c) vs Millie Mckenzie<\/strong><\/h3>\n<figure

Mckenzie is almost the polar opposite to Jinny.\u00a0 She is a badass who just wants to get in a\u00a0 ring and Suplex her opponent all over the place.\u00a0 Mae Young Classic 2 competitor Jinny has finally arrived at her throne, thanks to the help she gets from the House of Couture.\u00a0 With the potential rematch with Storm or long-awaited\u00a0clash with Laura waiting, expect Jinny getting the win.\u00a0 But there is no doubt that Millie Mckenzie will one day hold this title.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Match 4: ATLAS Championship: Doug Williams (c) vs TK Cooper<\/strong><\/h3>\n<figure

retire Doug Williams.\u00a0 Williams has vowed to retire from wrestling when he loses the Atlas championship so Cooper will have to kill him to keep him down.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Match 5: PROGRESS World

two saw Banks run and get counted out, retaining his title in the process but losing what shred of respect he still had with the fans.\u00a0 Banks has nowhere to run or hide this time, as PROGRESS management has made the decision that this match will have NO COUNT-OUTS.\u00a0 Banks must beat WALTER at <em>Chapter 74\u00a0<\/em>to keep his championship and can&#8217;t run any
