Chris Ford is an American professional wrestler best known for the ring names Crowbar in World Championship Wrestling and Devon Storm in Extreme Championship Wrestling. He wrestled in a brief stint in World Wrestling Entertainment and also Total Nonstop Action Wrestling.
Career
Chris Ford was trained by Mike Sharpe. He wrestled for many years on the independent scene under the ring name Devon Storm, a name which Ford came up with many years earlier while dreaming to be a pro wrestler. He had many notable feuds on the indys, including having several matches with Sabu. After years working on the indys and a short stint with ECW, Storm signed a developmental deal with WCW.
In WWF he was a first round opponent of TAKA Michinoku for the WWF Light Heavyweight Championship tournament held in 1997.
Storm went to World Championship Wrestling where they sent him to the Power Plant, WCW's main training facility. After being trained as "Dangerous" Devon Storm, he was placed in a stable with David Flair and Daffney Unger, where was given the name Crowbar. In WCW, he held the WCW Cruiserweight Championship, WCW World Tag Team Championship and the WCW Hardcore Championship. He also had a memorable feud with Terry Funk that culminated at the last WCW Starrcade pay-per-view.
After WCW, he spent some time in the now defunct World Wrestling All-Stars where he and Sabu resumed their feud.
He has wrestled some dark matches for WWE on both WWE Velocity and WWE Sunday Night HEAT.
In 2003, he joined Total Nonstop Action Wrestling and was part of Father James Mitchell's stable, The New Church.
He has been a mainstay in such indy promotions as Jersey All Pro Wrestling [1] and Pro Wrestling Syndicate since his departure with TNA.
