One co-owner wants no restrictions on Elgin matches being shown while the other does not want it shown and has no problem with IWA MS keeping it as dark matches only.

Making things worse for Powerbomb TV is Elgin allegedly threatened the co-owner who wanted his matches yanked from live airing.

Other indies that run shows on the service are really worried this is going to get a lot more ugly. They are worried at a boycott happening, mass exodus in subscribers, and their rep getting damaged by association.
Ended up getting worse for Powerbomb TV as one of the co-owners got fired from the company. It was the one that wanted Elgin matches to not be aired on the service.

Supposedly Smart Mark Video played a big role in his firing since they help provide indie content for the service and Powerbomb TV didn't want to risk their deal with the company if they went ahead with the Elgin ban.
