I wasn't sure where to put this. "Entertainment", "Classic", or what. Please move if need to.
The lead singer of the DX band passed away at age 49. Such a shame and such an early age.
Unfortunate news hits the wrestling world, as news has emerged that Chris Warren, the lead singer of the "DX Band" has died at age 49.
Few details are known at this time, but Warren passed away on Sunday. A funeral service will be held this weekend.
Warren contributed vocals to several WWE themes, including the iconic D-Generation X "Break it Down" song. Warren also was featured in X-Pac's theme, as well as the intro do the late 1990's edition of WWF Superstars. Triple H's "My Time" was also performed by Warren.
Warren performed at WrestleMania 14, with a controversial rendition of America The Beautiful, in addition to playing Shawn Michaels to the ring for the main event. Warren would go on to lead the band Bro-Kin, and contribute several songs to TNA Wrestling events.
His obituary reads as follows:
Christopher P. Warren of Valley Cottage, NY, passed away suddenly on Sunday, June 12, 2016 at the age 49. Christopher was born in Huntington, Long Island, NY on May 27, 1967 to Christopher J. and Barbara Warren.
He was employed by Local 638 NYC as a Steam Fitter for many years. Music was his passion. He was very artistic and was a singer for the band Bro-kin.
Christopher is survived by his mother, Barbara Spector, his three brothers, Steven (Lena) Spector, Andrew (Jill) Spector and Danny (Margit) Spector and his sister, Laura Spector. He is also survived by many nieces and nephews, aunts, uncles and cousins.
"Christopher was very well liked and will be greatly missed by all that knew him".
He was predeceased by his father, Christopher J. Warren and step father, Paul Spector.

I thought the DX band singer was Triple H's brother?

Sad to hear he passed, if it weren't for him DX wouldn't be as popular as it is today.

DX, their song, and titantron are what got me to care about WWF. I was a WCW Nitro fan before that.

His voice is synonymous with the rise of The Game. Shame to hear he passed away so young.

I seriously know too many Chris Warren's in music. There's seriously like 8 Chris Warren's who are famous musicians.
Sad, probably the best theme ever. RIP.
