Chapter 153: Super Strong Style 16 Tournament Edition 2023, simply known as the 2023 Super Strong Style 16 was the seventh Super Strong Style 16 professional wrestling tournament produced by Progress Wrestling. It was a three-night event, which took place between May 27 and May 29, 2023. The first night of the event was held at The Dome in London, England, while the second two nights were held at the Electric Ballroom in London, England.[1]

Kid Lykos won the tournament by defeating Mark Haskins in the final, with Nigel McGuinness serving as the special guest referee.[2] The tournament was notable for featuring the return of Will Ospreay (of New Japan Pro-Wrestling fame) to Progress after a four-year absence.[3] Ospreay reunited with Paul Robinson as The Swords of Essex, with Robinson also returning to the promotion after a two-year absence. At the event, they teamed with Callum Newman to defeat CPF (Danny Black, Joe Lando and Maverick Mayhew).[4] Aside from that, Smokin' Aces (Charlie Sterling and Nick Riley) defeated Sunshine Machine (Chuck Mambo and TK Cooper) in a ladder match to win the Tag Team Championship, Lana Austin retained the World Women's Championship against Millie McKenzie and Alexxis Falcon defeated Nina Samuels in a Clock Strikes Midnight match.[5][6]
