It looks like Michael Elgin’s time in Japan has been cut short.
As of September 16th, Michael Elgin is no longer on the Pro Wrestling NOAH roster page. This comes after Elgin was arrested in July for stealing protein powder as exclusively reported by Bodyslam.net. Elgin hasn’t wrestled for the promotion since early July, and denied the report. He was also involved in an incident at a gym around the same time also. His final match in NOAH was a loss. At the time of his arrest, NOAH put out the following tweet.
Time will tell what will be next for Elgin, but with a litany of controversies, including allegations during the Speaking Out Movement, it may be some time before we see Elgin back in the ring, if at all.
