one of canada’s top international talents, elp has been a veteran of the west coast independent scene since the mid-2000s, primarily with elite canadian championship wrestling (eccw). in 2017, he integreated into the “brit wres” scene of the uk, working with the top promotions in great britain, before catching on with new japan pro wrestling (njpw) in 2019. a gifted aerialist, he immediately joined the bullet club faction, forming an dominating tag team with taiji ishimori in the junior heavyweight tag team ranks. he’s since split from the bullet club but continues to shine as one of the few canadians to compete in new japan with great success. he still continues to compete in the canadian independent scene, and has become a regular in maple leaf pro wrestling as a result.
