if they're doing this with Ciampa I don't know why he didn't just beat Elgin for the belt in a couple months

I think the idea might be they want him to destroy a champion they don't care about as much? Maybe? I dunno. I expect he'll Lesnar someone at FB because ROH always seems to have a storyline brewing and then another company does it before it ends.

Knew about the title change in advance. Tried to make an illusion to it by asking about the internal strife in the Company in the main thread.

Essentially ROH thinks Elgin is a loving headcase over his talk about becoming a Baseball player. His Twitter timeline this past week has been something.

Further burying him by giving his gimmick to Ciampa.

As soon as I heard he lost the title the first thing that entered my head was "are they firing him?".

Meltzer confirms my REPORTS about Elgin on this morning's radio show. He was going to win up until Friday night/Saturday morning.

Meltzer said this interview is what did him in:

I mean, Elgin is plenty crazy, but that seems like a dumb reason to do this. The guy wants an MLB tryout, so what?

Hell, if he's any drat good, it might even bring attention to the company!

Having your world champ want to leave and do something else in his prime doesn't look good.

They were also angry at him *PWG SPOILER* losing to Trevor Lee.

Elgin was stopped at the border last night and was not allowed to reenter the United States to make his woes worse.

Wouldn't ROH have a say in the booking of their talent in other promotions?

Also spoiler that stuff please

PWG SpoilerROH Champions have always had to get approval for jobs.

This only a more minor thing in the big picture.

Elgin has a match for AIW today in Cleveland, Ohio.

Are you suggesting he didn't get approval from the office or are they mad he did something they signed off on?

I don't know. I assume he didn't ask or think to ask. Elgin isn't someone who seems to think about consequences - in a he's dumb way rather than a Davey Richards way.

Isn't he married to an American, which would make this a lot smaller of an issue than say how Seleziya always gets in trouble at the border?
