He received his biggest push in the dying days of World Championship Wrestling as part of Lance Storm ' s Canadian faction , Team Canada . For a brief period , he was WCW Cruiserweight Champion , and wore a modified belt as part of the Team Canada gimmick . He was also the first co - holder ( with Kid Romeo ) of the short - lived WCW Cruiserweight Tag Team Championship . The duo lost the belts to Billy Kidman and Rey Mysterio Jr . on the final edition of Monday Nitro . The theme music he used in WCW was sung by Skipper himself and was based on DMX ' s " Party Up ( Up In Here ) . " After WCW ( 2002 ) . After WCW was purchased by the World Wrestling Federation in March 2001 , Skipper was signed to a developmental contract by the WWF . He was released by the WWF in December 2001 without having appeared on WWF television . Skipper toured Japan with All Japan Pro Wrestling as Extreme Blade . Total Nonstop Action Wrestling ( 2002 - Present ) . Skipper joined Total Nonstop Action Wrestling upon its formation in 2002 , where he was named " Primetime " Elix Skipper . He formed a three - man tag team with Low - Ki and Christopher Daniels called Triple X , and the trio embarked on a long feud with America ' s Most Wanted . All three won the NWA World Tag Team Championship together twice ( they were initially stripped of the belts , but won them right back ) , and Skipper would help Daniels defend the titles when Daniels won them single - handedly in a handicap match on May 7 , 2003 . Low - Ki eventually left Triple X , and Daniels and Skipper were forced to split after a Six Sides of Steel match with America ' s Most Wanted at " Turning Point " on December 5 , 2004 . During the match , Skipper pulled off what many consider the single greatest spot in TNA history : With Chris Harris sitting at the top of the cage fighting Daniels , Skipper climbed up , walked across the top of the cage and hit Harris with a hurricarana that sent both men off the cage and to the mat . The move gained a huge ovation from the crowd and has been featured in numerous TNA montages ever since . Since the Triple X split , both Skipper and Daniels have competed in the X Division , with Skipper turning face after Daniels fully turned on him during Ultimate X7 at " Destination X 2005 " . Since receiving a shot at Daniels for the TNA X Division Championship at " Lockdown " , Skipper has not received as strong a push as Daniels . In August 2005 , a jealous Skipper turned heel and joined the Diamonds in the Rough with Simon Diamond & David Young . From mid - 2005 onwards he has remained as a lower card performer alongside David Young managed by Simon Diamond , the team is rarely ever used . The peek for the team was at the December pay per view TNA Turning Point 2005 , where the Diamonds faced Chris Sabin , Sonjay Dutt and former pro - wrestler and baseball player Dale Torborg , managed by Chicago White Sox cather AJ Pierzynski , and with colour commentary provided by Bobby " the Brain " Heenan in a " BaseBrawl " match . The lead up to the match which included Pierzynski being presented with a specially made TNA X Division championship belt , gained much media attention all over America and provided a great deal of publicity for TNA . Recently the team has started to detiriorate with ongoing shouting matches between Skipper and Young .
