Prime Time, baby!

If you're ever stuck for something to watch and want something a little different, then check out any of Elix Skipper's tag matches with Christopher Daniels in TNA. Specifically, watch his daredevil antics atop a steel cage at Turning Point 2004. That's some ahead-of-the-curve sh*t right there.

Before making a name for himself in TNA, Skipper was part of Lance Storm's 'Team Canada' faction in WCW, and he was a riot. It's also worth noting that things happened pretty fast for ol' Skip. He'd only been training for eight months when Power Plant heads told WCW he was ready for television.

Another thing worth mentioning is that Elix wasn't exactly a young buck when he debuted. He was already 32 years old when he started working on Nitro and Thunder. Still, fans at the time regarded him as part of the promotion's youth movement. That's probably because WCW enthusiasts were crying out for new talent as a rule.

Skipper, with his natural charisma and Cruiserweight-quality ring skills, was one of the best who didn't made the grade in WWE.
