Vinny Pacifico Credits Zack Sabre Jr For Always Giving Him Advice, Jokingly Calls Him A Wanker

Vinny Pacifico has a high-energy style fueled by G Fuel, a contract to Zack Sabre Jr’s more methodical technical prowess 

However, the two men have ties dating back to 2016 when they both wrestled at XWA events. 

Speaking to Jeremy Lambert & Joel Pearl on In The Weeds, Vinny explained how Zack helped him early in his career. 

“We rode to a show together years ago. I was working at ShopRite. I was working and I had a booking. I was very young, I was new to this, so it was ‘hey Vinny, we have an opportunity for you to wrestle at this company. You’re going to be riding with Zack Sabre Jr, so take advantage.’ I was like, ‘Of course.’ My boss said I couldn’t get out of work. That was the hardest thing because no one covered for me. No one was able to take the shift. So, I quit. I had another job lined up, but that was it. I had to quit. Zack was the coolest guy, watched my matches, gave me advice, watched my match at the show and he was awesome. For years on, he’s always been awesome to me, always cool to me. We always talk. He’s a dream match for me. His style of wrestling, his grit, I love it,” said Vinny. 

After being baited to trash-talk Zack a bit, Vinny said, “Zack, you’re a wanker. You’re a piece of shit. Let’s wrestle.” 

Pacifico will be in action at All Star Junior Festival when he takes on Goldy on the pre-show. Fans can check out the lineup for All Star Junior Festival by clicking here. Fightful will have coverage of the event as it unfolds on August 19.
