Storylines

The event included matches that each resulted from scripted storylines, where wrestlers portrayed heroes, villains, or less distinguishable characters in scripted events that built tension and culminated in a wrestling match or series of matches. Results were predetermined by Progress' creative writers, [4] while storylines were produced on Progress' events airing on the Demand PROGRESS streaming service. [5]

On April 26, 2024, it was announced that ex-WWE superstar Shelton Benjamin was making his Progress Wrestling debut by being presented as a Super Strong Style 16 competitor.
