Michael Elgin has left New Japan Pro Wrestling.

Elgin debuted with NJPW during the 2015 G1 Climax and instantly impressed with his powerful, hard hitting offense. On March 3 2016 in Ota-ku, Elgin publicly announced that he had signed with NJPW, and went on to win the NEVER Openweight and IWGP Intercontinental Championships.

After careful consideration and dialogue, Elgin and NJPW have mutually decided to part ways after his contract expired on March 31, 2019.

We wish Michael Elgin nothing but the best in his future endeavors.
