Career

Sean Royal started wrestling in 1986 in Florida Championship Wrestling in a tag team with Chris Champion called The New Breed. They claimed to be from the year 2002 and came to the ring to the tune of the Beastie Boys' Fight For Your Right. They won the Florida Tag Team Titles and feuded with Steve Armstrong and Tracy Smothers.[1][2]

In 1987, they went to the NWA's Jim Crockett Promotions and started a feud with the Rock 'N Roll Express. The feud was cut short when they were injured in a car wreck and Champion was unable to return for quite some time. Royal came back right away as a singles wrestler. Jim Cornette approached Royal to join his stable. Royal refused, Champion came back and they feuded briefly with the Midnight Express.[2] Royal left wrestling not long after this to become a construction worker. He made brief tours in New Japan Pro Wrestling, starting in 1993.

He returned to wrestling in 2001 in NWA-Wildside to team with Rusty Riddle as "Total Destruction".
