Michael Elgin Update

According to Dave Meltzer, former ROH champion Michael Elgin’s situation has gotten worse. He was stranded in Canada after the last iPPV several weeks ago, because his papers for his new work visa hadn’t gone through yet. The original hope is that he would be back in the United States with his wife in 90 days, but apparently that’s now looking like a best case scensario. Elgin has started taking more indie bookings into the next few months, through various promotions while living with family. 

Ring of Honor/ACH Update

As we reported, ACH missed his flight for the All Star Extravaganza IPPV, and there was some heat backstage on him for missing what would have been the biggest match of his Ring of Honor run. It appears that ROH and several of the wrestlers tried to get a hold of him all day, but their calls all went straight to voicemail. The company even tried to book him a later flight, which still would have got him to the show in time for the match, but nobody could find him.
