It’s never pleasant losing a match, not to mention losing a title. However, last night in Nashville was the largest gross in Fairgrounds history(topped the TNA “asylum” 02-04 run, HOFers Dream & Jeff somehow --) and I know a great deal of folks traveled far-and-wide to be there. That’s not missed on me. Southern rasslin’ and the cities that host it don’t often get that “buzz” like they should and it felt like the days of old last night. THANK YOU to all those who attended and watched live on FITE. THANK YOU to all those who attended the meet/greet(we earned several thousand dollars that I’ll be donating to The Breast Cancer Research Foundation! Still waiting on final numbers). As I begin a transition to a new role in pro-wrestling, I hope all the fans who’ve discovered the NWA recently...stay on board and continue to watch the likes of Nick Aldis, Avalon, Willie Mack, Jazz and many more. As I continue my remaining dates with the good folks at ROH, I’d like to thank them and The NWA for allowing me to cross imaginary lines and give the fans something special! -CR

The lines that stick out are "As I begin a transition to a new role in pro-wrestling" and "As I continue my remaining dates with the good folks at ROH."

Cody's contract with ROH is set to expire at the end of the year. He and other members of the Bullet Club Elite have teased going to WWE while also discussing the possibility of holding All In 2. Last week, it was reported that Cody, The Young Bucks, Hangman Page, and Marty Scurll were on-board with a yet-to-be-announced promotion headed by Jim Ross and Chris Jericho. 

The contract situation of Cody, the Bucks, Omega, Page, and Scurll has not only been turned into a storyline on Being The Elite, but has been a major topic on social media. The Elite recently announced their final Bullet-club style t-shirts and Tama Tonga has repeatedly hinted at the group jumping to WWE.

Cody is currently slated to appear at the ROH Global Wars tour from Nov. 7 to 11.
