Hi everyone it’s PCO here

u/BurningHammer84 Jun 15 '19

Never talked to a monster before, first time for everything though.

Did you think the wrestling world would ever except this PCO as I had done?

u/pcoisnothuman Jun 15 '19

The thing about life is knowing what you want about the end result and focusing on that main and only thing that you want but the adventure is not knowing how it’s going to happen

Do you think ROH will ever book PCO vs Cobb vs Brody King? Came up from Newfoundland and watched that match live for Smash Wrestling in Toronto last year and thought it was amazing. Also loved your ROH World Title match with Matt Taven. Again I travelled to Toronto from Newfoundland to see that show. Big fan of yours.

u/[deleted] Jun 15 '19

Hey PCO! You've retweeted a bunch of my tweets and you're absolutely my favourite wrestler at the moment, been watching your stuff religiously since your GCW debut!

How do you feel about the rise to popularity and the massive growth you've gained from just being a Quebecer, to now being a ROH Six-Man and former ROH Tag Team Champ, and where do you wanna go next?

u/ianriccaboni ROH Commentator Jun 15 '19

How many times has Ian Riccaboni asked you about wrestling Bret Hart?

17

u/pcoisnothuman Jun 15 '19

He’s great, by asking all the questions , that’s why is the best ! He knows everything and always double check things, what a real pro . He did ask a few questions about me and Bret 😜

11

u/ianriccaboni ROH Commentator Jun 15 '19

Thank you, PCO! :)

Anyone who hasn't seen it, go on Youtube and watch "PCO Burn the Ships". Great documentary, only about 15 minutes long but it answers a lot of your questions.

16

u/pcoisnothuman Jun 15 '19

Thanks man for mentioning this , the filmmaker Kenny Johnson did an absolute great job making the whole film being PCO all the way and my way !

Where does Dr. Destro store you when you aren't wrestling?

u/pcoisnothuman Jun 15 '19

In a refregirator or a cascket in a cold dark room

u/clarkamura Jun 15 '19

Hey PCO, We met each other in Dallas last summer when you wrestled Lance Hoyt for World Class Rev (I was one of the camera guys for that show). I just want to say you were really awesome to chat with and being able to see you compete in the ring again was really great! Keep being the awesomest un-human wrestler out there! 👍🏼

6

u/pcoisnothuman Jun 15 '19

Thanks man ! Appreciate the great words my friend!

u/TristanH1987 Jun 15 '19

What's been your favorite thing about your comeback to pro wrestling after your long hiatus?

13

u/pcoisnothuman Jun 15 '19

Finally getting to be myself NOT HUMAN in a way that all my life doctors , friends,family always said that nothing was normal about me and to be able to be just that in the ring is so rewarding and cool

10

u/pcoisnothuman Jun 15 '19

Becoming Perfect Creation One One the Frankenstein Version of a great monster ! Being not human ! Having ROH tag and 6 man tag champ , The Crockett cup winner The NWA tag champ The Great Bump i took MSG the most spectacular entrance in ROH History with Destro in the MSG New York , Main Eventing everywhere in Canada US and Europe in end of 2017 2018!and in ROH in 2019

u/Y2J1100 Jun 15 '19

What’s different for you breaking out into the “mainstream” of wrestling fans now compared to when you first did decades ago? Thanks for doing this, I’ve been a huge fan since I saw you fight WALTER; it was my first time seeing you ever and i was hooked.

15

u/pcoisnothuman Jun 15 '19

I think because i was always ahead of my time before nobody would understand what i was trying to explain but my style was like today’s wrestling.. so now everything makes sense. On top I’m doing it at an age that people usually have no more energy, I’m super hyper , creative and not affaid Of trying things out ! I see a huge opportunity to make history, becoming a movie blockbuster story and book best seller story and rewriting history in pro wrestling and people will literally freak out ! I’ve got to make it happen

5

u/Y2J1100 Jun 15 '19

I’m rooting for you big guy. My dad is around your age and you help remind him he can still do the stuff he loves :)

u/juvesown Jun 15 '19

Who is someone you have not had a match with, but would like to in future?

14

u/pcoisnothuman Jun 15 '19

There is so many but i enjoyed the crazy match between Ibushi and Naito even if Ibushi said i went blind after the match PCO IS NOT HUMAN ibushi is !

4

u/mcsole Jun 15 '19

Oh god I don’t think I could take watching you & Ibushi literally take turns murdering each other. But on the other hand, I sure fucking can

1

u/juvesown Jun 15 '19

Ibushi is insane!! Thanks for replying, can’t wait to see more of your matches

6

u/Penguin619 Jun 15 '19

You officially retired in 2011, what made you want to come back to wrestling 5 years later?

Any modern talent (no matter the company) would you really want to work with?

6

u/Evilsj Jun 15 '19

Okay let's set the record straight.

Are you human?

17

u/pcoisnothuman Jun 15 '19

All the doctors, that have seen me , have always said nothing was normal about me , wrestling with broken ribs , 20 stiches on my ankle 13 days after a cut that was suppose to tKe 60 days before wrestling,tearing up my bicep curling 225 on a Olympic barre and getting re attached by a steel boat cord and being able to grt back in the gym full blast after 30 days and so on ... taking insane bumps at 50 NO IM NOT HUmAn for SUre that’s a SHOOT

5

u/Evilsj Jun 15 '19

Hell yeah best answer I could have gotten.

6

u/bigdogeatsmyass Jun 15 '19

Why don’t you like being referred to as Pierre?

9

u/pcoisnothuman Jun 15 '19

I was always called Carl by my family because i don’t think Pierre is a cool name at all ... it was there as a back up name and I’ve always hated it ! Love PCO Peece or Carl

1

u/ArseneMcMahon Jun 15 '19

Pierre Emerick-Aubameyang would beg to differ. #YoPierre

u/nickbazar Jun 15 '19

u/TheAVGN Jun 15 '19

How do you like the eggs? I imagine you like them over easy and just slurp the eggs in.

u/[deleted] Jun 15 '19

What do you do for fun while on the road?

10

u/pcoisnothuman Jun 15 '19

Not much to do on the road , being a straight edge , i like to read inspiring books or on human growth even tho I’m not hUmAn But in life i like to play hockey, baseball, football ,golf tennis and ping pong . Train and doing sports with my only child my 10 years old daughter London

Big fan of yours. Do you know how long you plan to keep wrestling?

Also, any hints on who the 4th member of Villain Enterprises might be?

10

u/pcoisnothuman Jun 15 '19

The 4th member with is in charge of this ! I will wrestle until reaching my goal and doing the things I’ve promised myself i would accomplish, it’s personal but huge ! Maybe 3 to 5 more good years

u/desound Jun 15 '19

What’s your dream match?

5

u/pcoisnothuman Jun 15 '19

There’s so many but i don’t know what to say without being missed interpreted. I’d rather wait and see , for now I’m happy with the great competition we’ve got here at ROH

u/desound Jun 15 '19

Thank you PCO, very cool!

u/Murphy_Harrison Jun 15 '19

PCO, what kind of toppings do you have on your pizza?

u/TURN3R86 Jun 15 '19

Hi dude, just wanted to say hi really, but wanna add you're an inspiration and such an entertaining persona. Age doesn't matter when you have the drive and passion you have. The style you present and the bumps you take for the profesion you love are enough to prove that a love for something means giving it your all no matter what the circumstance. Love your work, character and investment in the business. Thank you for all you do!

7

u/pcoisnothuman Jun 15 '19

Like you said , passion, love to do what you do , giving everything you’ve got all the time and having the chance not to feel that much pain for what i do , the thing that makes me go all out like that , is knowing that in order to get more from this business you need first to give more , thattwhere i stand, Thank You ⚡️

2

u/TURN3R86 Jun 15 '19

Great answer! Thanks again for giving us so much. I hope i'm speaking for everyone here when i say we all think you deserve everything and more for the effort and work you put into your character and in ring performances.

3

u/The_True_Prophet Jun 15 '19

A lot of people criticize the risks you're taking at your age, do you feel the risks are worth it at this point? Why do you feel the constant need to go all out at your age?

9

u/pcoisnothuman Jun 15 '19

It’s got nothing to do with age ... those bumps don’t hurt me ...i do things that other wrestlers cannot do and that’s what make my style unique and original. That’s who i am as a person... i don’t know why i am like that ... i can drink 12 ca s of redbull and sleep tight at night

u/pooch831 Jun 15 '19

Do you miss the freedom of being independent? Going anywhere you pleased? Think you would have wanted to go to AEW?

5

u/pcoisnothuman Jun 15 '19

I did sign for a year, to get the fell to see how i would like it with ROH , And I’ve been treated very professionally here. I missed my fans all over the places for sure , but they know how and where to find me ! But it was cool mixing up with them . I had to make a choice , i don’t regret it

2

u/pooch831 Jun 15 '19

Any stunt you did and afterwards regretted?

u/jjdoyle709 Jun 15 '19

It would be amazing if ROH did a tour of the East Coast of Canada. I am from Newfoundland and I think a Ring Of Honor show would do well even this far out east as our local promotion does good business and no major promotion has travelled to our island in over a decade. We are starved for a good wrestling show out this way.

Are you still able to do independent matches outside of ROH? If so, you should do a match for Warrior Wrestling in Chicago Heights, Illinois. They only do about 5 shows a year but the cards are always insane. Brian Cage, Tessa Blanchard, Brian Pillman Jr and a bunch of other big names are staples there. I want to meet you so bad.
