In this live and exclusive interview I speak with the man behind one of the most Iconic characters & performers on the UK and Worldwide Independent wrestling scene.... Cara Noir (Tom Dawkins). We start by discussing his feud with Spike Trivet and the amazing 'I Quit, Loser Leaves Progress' match at Super Strong Style 16 (2022) and the punishment Cara went through during that match, including thumbtacks to the feet...! We also look ahead to his next Chapter match with Spike at the Electric Ballroom on February 26th 2023. Tom tells us about his his recent tours of Japan and his experience of working with DDT, and the reaction of the Iconic character from the Japanese fans. Tom tells of his experience for 1PW and his match with Christopher Daniels at the Doncaster Dome 1st October 2022 and what's to come in 2023 with 1PW. We discuss the importance of The London School of Lucha Libre on his development and his journey with Lucha Britannia and how that group helped him and so many more in his early career. We also discuss the genesis of the Cara Noir character and the early concept for what the Iconic character would later become. Tom tells us about some of the amazing matches that helped to take him to the next level, before eventually appearing for Progress in the NPS 6 in September 2019. We speak about wrestling Pete Dunne the very next day and then his incredible series of matches with Ilja Dragunov, before becoming the Progress World Champion all within the space of 5 months Tom tells us about being the face of Progress and carrying that promotion during its darkest hour, especially defending the title 13 times during the Peckham Era tapings in front of Zero fans. Tom also tells us about his mindset during that time and how he adapted to that environment to put on the very best show possible under very difficult circumstances. We also discuss winning the wXw 16 Carot Gold Tournament just weeks after becoming the Progress World champion in early 2020.
