The Progress Tag Team Championship is a professional wrestling championship created and promoted by the British professional wrestling promotion Progress Wrestling. Introduced on 24 November 2013, the inaugural championship team was FSU (Mark Andrews and Eddie Dennis). The current champions are Smokin' Aces (Charlie Sterling and Nick Riley), who are in their second reign.

History

It was announced at Chapter 9 that beginning in November 2013 there would begin a series of matches to determine the first Progress Tag Team champions. The champions were crowned at Chapter 12, the second anniversary show, in March 2014. As with the Progress Championship not being a conventional championship belt, the Progress Tag Team Championship was originally represented by a shield with the Progress eagle on the front. The shield splits into two, one for each championship holder.

At Chapter 46 the Tag Team shields were replaced with traditional strap title belts, with the design on the front plate of each belt representing the defunct Tag shields.

Reigns

As of November 1, 2024, there have been 26 reigns between 18 teams composed of 36 individual champions. The inaugural champions were the FSU (Mark Andrews and Eddie Dennis).

The current champions are Smokin' Aces, who are in their second reign. They defeated previous champion Sunshine Machine (Chuck Mambo and TK Cooper) in a ladder match on 28 May 2023 on Chapter 153: Super Strong Style 16 Tournament in London, England.
