The Traitors star set to appear at PROGRESS Wrestling

Posted on by Jake Skudder

A star of The Traitors UK is set to make an appearance at the upcoming Wonderbrawl II event on June 7th. Faraaz Noor, who appeared on Season 4 of the show, will be appearing to back up Nathan Black as he takes on Simon Miller.

Several other matches have also been confirmed for the company’s Manchester return this weekend, including Gene Munny (w/Session Moth Martina) defending his PROGRESS ATLAS Title against Pro Wrestling NOAH name Kouga and the The Young Guns (Ethan Allen & Luke Jacobs) defending their PROGRESS Tag Team Titles against New Japan’s Drilla Moloney and UK standout Man Like Dereiss.

PROGRESS Wrestling was recently purchased by Big Damo and Nikki Cross for an undisclosed fee. Cross was released from WWE earlier this year and that prompted the couple to fast-track their plans for life beyond the ring.

WWE Hall of Famer Nikki Bella cast on ‘The Traitors’ reality show

Posted on by Joseph Currier

WWE Hall of Famer Nikki Garcia (Nikki Bella) is set to be featured on one of reality television’s hottest shows.

On Wednesday, it was revealed that Garcia is among the cast members for season three of “The Traitors,” a murder mystery-inspired reality series that airs on Peacock. The new season is listed as coming soon, but a premiere date has not been announced.

“The Traitors” is hosted by actor Alan Cumming and is filmed at a castle in Scotland. A group of cast members are designated as Traitors and must work to eliminate everyone else from the show. The rest are designated as Faithfuls and need to figure out who the Traitors are. Contestants are competing for a maximum grand prize of $250,000. They are also paid for being on the show.

Other members of the season three cast include “Survivor” winners Rob Mariano, Tony Vlachos & Jeremy Collins, “Big Brother” legends Danielle Reyes & Britney Haynes, and Tom Sandoval from “Vanderpump Rules.” There are 21 contestants in total.

Garcia and her twin sister Brie were inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame as part of the 2020 class. In March 2023, Nikki & Brie announced that they were no longer with WWE and would be going by Nikki Garcia & Brie Garcia going forward. The sisters host a podcast together.

The last time Nikki & Brie competed in the ring was as entrants in the 2022 women’s Royal Rumble. They haven’t ruled out returning in the future, though they don’t know which promotion they would wrestle for. Nikki has said that, if she does wrestle again, it would be when her son Matteo gets older.
