- Jim Smallman (Co-Founder and Co-Owner of PROGRESS Wrestling) announced he'll be leaving the company after being with it since its inception. Smallman has already been working behind the scenes creatively for WWE NXT UK, and will continue to do so going forward. According to this morning's Wrestler Observer Radio, Smallman will finish up with PROGRESS on December 30, also noting time was probably a big factor as he had to bounce back and forth between two companies.
