Vinny Pacifico Explains His Love Of Energy Drinks, Filming Skits With Wrestlers

Vinny Pacifico packs a punch. 

Vinny Pacifico is the king of the energy drinks, and not only does he use them as fuel for his matches, he tries to get other wrestlers involved in the love. Vinny has filmed various skits with wrestlers such as Gangrel, Tony Deppen, Rosemary, and more trying to get them to taste the power of the energy. 

Speaking to SP3 of Tru Heel Heat, Pacifico explained his love of energy drinks filming skits. 

“I just love them and I needed to add something to my wrestling repertoire. I wanted to add some spunk to my career or what I do so I said f**k it, sorry. What do I do, what do I love, what is there about me that people could relate to or what is there about me that I don’t show? I drink energy drinks a lot and I’m naturally very energetic, so why not bring this into my wrestling career, my character, why not. Why not showcase this side of me, you know. I’m fun, I’m very energetic, I could talk a mile a minute, you know, so it’s like why not. Ever since starting doing that, my career skyrocketed, my social media engagement skyrocketed.

“These promos I’ve been doing have been really fun. I love doing them, they’re just, they’re ways to get characters over not only myself, but the people I do them with. They’re ways to create depth and create layers to my character and other people’s, you know. And it’s like back in the day you still see Kurt Angle backstage with people like Edge and doing fun stuff and it’s like it creates deeper layers for professional wrestlers and fans and people to see inside their lives and see how they react with other people. And just really it adds a lot to a wrestling career or wrestling character, so I believe that this helps people grow. These promos are fun. They’re just content, it’s free content, but they just add layers to characters and they add, it helps publicity for both of us. It’s just not, it’s all positive all around, that’s what I want to be beneficial for me, people I do them with and they’re just ways to make people laugh and add happiness into people’s lives. I want to make people laugh, I want to make people go, ‘oh that’s a funny promo’ or ‘oh this promo sucks’. Okay well it’s not for you, it’s not for everybody, I understand that I know some promos might not be for everybody, that’s okay, but this is all just done with positivity. And I just want to be able to add more positivity in pro wrestling because that’s what we want in wrestling, you know. Positivity, happiness, growth and I believe that’s what I’m trying to do with all of this, with this character, with this wrestling, with all of this. I just want to leave wrestling better than what I found it, I think that’s what everyone’s real goal is to make wrestling better and that’s what I want to do.”
