It’s been a whirlwind week for Michael Elgin, following the public reveal on December 3rd<\/a> of private conversations with an alleged sexual assault victim revealed that Elgin had been aware of a former student and wrestler for his own Glory Pro<\/strong> Wrestling sexually assaulting a fan and sat on the news for nearly eight months before the wrestler was released. After getting caught in a Social Media crossfire, Elgin retreated from Twitter after announcing he was selling Glory Pro. He returned the next day to issue a “final statement”,<\/a> before returning focus to his current wrestling work in NJPW<\/strong>, where he’s teaming with Jeff Cobb<\/strong> in NJPW’s World Tag League tournament.<\/p>\n

But it didn’t take long for the mounting evidence presented on-line to sway promoters from many of Elgin’s regular indie promotions to start removing Elgin from upcoming appearances, starting on December 5th from Limitless Wrestling<\/strong> in Maine.<\/p>\n

\n

For two years, we've been striving to make Maine a wrestling destination by mixing some of the best locally with some of the best in the world. Most of all, we want to create a FUN & SAFE environment for fans and wrestlers.<\/p>\n

Michael Elgin has been pulled off of our event on 1\/19.<\/p>\n
