Justin Eldridge (born October 26, 1978), better known by his ring name Justin Eldridge, is an American professional wrestler and wrestling color commentato] currently signed to IWE working on its Raw brand where he is currently one of two disputed IWE Champions; the other being Dustin Simpson.
In professional wrestling, Eldridge is a six-time world champion having won the ROH World Championship, XCW Championship, and IWE Championship each once, and the World Heavyweight Championship three times, making him the second wrestler (after Chris LeGreca) to have held all three of IWE's World titles.
In addition to these championships Eldridge has also won the World Tag Team Championship (with Jose Serrano), and the IWE Intercontinental Championship making him the nineteenth IWE Triple Crown Champion. Between IWE and ROH (where he is also a two time tag team champion), Eldridge has won a total of ten championships. He was also the winner of the 2008 and 2009 Money in the Bank ladder matches, the only Superstar to win the match twice in a row.
Eldridge initially came to prominence through his career on the professional wrestling independent circuit, primarily as a member of the Ring of Honor (ROH) roster, where he won the ROH Tag Team Championship, ROH World Championship, and was the first head trainer of the ROH wrestling school. In 2005, Eldridge signed a contract with IWE and was sent to its developmental promotion, Ohio Valley Wrestling (OVW), where he won every championship available in the promotion.
Throughout his career, Eldridge has consistently used the gimmick of being straight edge, a lifestyle he follows in real life. Depending on Eldridge's alignment as a crowd favorite or villain, he emphasizes different aspects of the culture to encourage the desired audience reaction.
