I figured I would post this in the classic section cause I knew nobody on the WWE board would know but Chris Champion, one half of the 80s tag team in JCP, The New Breed and also known as Yoshi Kwan in WCW died this morning. Saw it confirmed on twitter.

That's too bad!
He was a pretty good worker too. The Yoshi Kwan gimmick was different, but the same can be said about the New Breed gimmick.
R.I.P. Chris Champion!

I wish Yoshi Kwan would've lasted a little longer in WCW. I'll never forget those long fingernails digging into his opponent's skull!
RIP

RIP Chris. I knew him from his Memphis run.

I really liked the New Breed team. It was over the top but still entertaining. I also remember the Yoshi Kwan gimmick in WCW when he was a henchman for Harley Race.
RIP Chris Champion.

This is terrible. I really dug the New Breed, and I was hoping they would have at least gotten a run with the U.S. tag team titles. Then that damn car accident happened.
Never knew Champion was Yoshi Kwan until a few years ago.
Quite a talent, but the man did have his demons.
May he rest peacefully.
