Former NXT stars The Authors Of Pain have been called up to the main roster, but after having a successful first outing on RAW they decided to drop longtime manager Paul Ellering from their ranks.

Much speculation began to swirl as to why this decision was made, the most common assumption being Ellering no longer wants to travel as much nowadays given his age. Ellering recently ditched that rumor on Twitter with an explanation of his own:

For the record…I love traveling.
I have seen this road before. My ? Algorithm for greatness stands the test of time. @WWENXT @WWENetwork @WWEUniverse #Champions

PWInsider’s Mike Johnson reports that the Ellering/Authors Of Pain split had nothing to do with travel. WWE reportedly wants the Authors Of Pain on their own now and would prefer Ellering to stay on NXT and help younger talent.

Johnson added Ellering would’ve done anything WWE wanted, even if it meant traveling, but they decided to go this route instead.
