The SGM Super 30 Black Professional Wrestler #13

Elix Skipper

I don’t care how many tightrope huracanranas you can do from the top of a steel cage, when the timbre of your voice makes Jeff Jarrett sound like Barry White, you need a fucking manager to cut your promos, stat.

As one-half of the Triple X team, he, along with Christopher Daniels, was part of arguably one of the best tag teams by recent wrestling standards. Of course, when you’re stuck wrestling America’s Most Wanted over and over again, your team will look good in every match. There was actually a period where TNA tried a decent storyline in splitting the two teams and pairing them up with a member from the opposite team. So we had Chris Harris & Skipper vs. Daniels & James Storm. Problem was, the teams met each other too quick ... a decent angle could have spawned from that, which would still have built perfectly into the split of XXX and the recent Daniels/Skipper X Title match. But oh well.
