Those theories are normally based on missing the point about the meaning of the word "reincarnation".
"Second physical body", remember.

Unless there is evidence for belief in people receiving a second physical body, there is no evidence for belief in reincarnation.

Not interested.
My source for Christian theology is the New Testament, which I am researching thoroughly enough.

Double-check the content of the OP.
The question under discussion is not "whether reincarnation occurs", but "whether Christianity believes in reincarnation".
I can tell you that belief in reincarnation is not part of the content of Christian theology, so that answers the question.

Elijah was supposed to be a special case anyway, because the Old Testament shows him taken straight up to heaven without dying, so in theory he could have returned in his original body.
