Backstage Heat On Michael Elgin, ROH Locker Room Upset, GFW Announcement Coming Tuesday

Jeff Jarrett and Global Force Wrestling are set to make an announcement Tuesday morning at 10am ET. It is expected that Jarrett will announce that the January 4th New Japan Pro Wrestling show from the Tokyo Dome will air live in North America on pay-per-view.

We first reported last month that Jarrett met with Ring of Honor COO Joe Koff to apparently work out a deal that would allow ROH talents who are scheduled to appear on the show to remain on the card. ROH has a clause in their contracts prohibiting their talent from appearing on pay-per-views for another wrestling promotion.

It appears as if that fell through as we have learned that there are some major issues with ROH talent being pulled from the Tokyo dome show.

There is also apparently a lot of heat in the ROH locker room over Michael Elgin. One source stated that Elgin was "a huge d-ck" to the locker room at the last TV tapings in Florida. A lot of the boys are also upset and insulted because they feel that Hunter Johnston and Koff are working them.
