PWINSIDER Q&A: RICO, HARDCORE HOMECOMING, K-FED'S FUTURE AND MORE

Answered on 12/21

Regarding your response to the question about TNA, ROH, WWE, etc... merging for a charity show. I think it is possible. My example would be the Brian Pillman Memorial Events promoted by Les Thatcher I do believe that featured WWF, WCW, ECW on one card. My question is do you see a common cause that the companies would put all differences aside for and who you could see (or would like to see) being a neutral promoter for said show.

For starters there is a major difference between promotions "merging" for a show and an event like the Pillman Memorials.  WWE, WCW and ECW had no involvement in the booking of those shows. It was simply a case of the companies giving permission to the talent to appear on the show. There certainly could be a charity show in the future that has talent from different organizations on it, but it won't be a case of TNA and WWE "working together".  There's a thousand worthy charities I'd love to see benefit from such a show, but I don't see it happening any time soon. 

Who is the person who does the artwork for the Big Vision releases like Hardcore Homecoming?  They are really great.

That's an artist named Scott Blair, based out of Tennessee.  He's done covers and T-Shirts for all of the Big Vision releases and does a really good job, in my opinion.

Do you think WWE will have any interest in Rebecca Knox?

I think Rebecca Knox is a great worker, and it would be really cool to have someone with an International background in WWE to work against Victoria.  However, the last I heard, Rebecca was recovering from a serious head injury and hadn't set a return date to wrestling yet. 

Please tell me that Kevin Federline (I can't believe I just typed that) will get squashed by John Cena on New Years Day and then disappear, and will not be a part of the WWE afterwards. PLEASE !!!!

I could tell you that, but I might not be telling you the truth.  I don't know what WWE's plans are in regards to Federline, but I would be very surprised if he came to WWE just so Cena could make fun of him and beat him up.  Unfortunately, I could see Federline making more appearances after the match. 

I was wondering, what ever happened to Rico, the manager for the Heartthrobs and a former WWE tag champ (with Charlie Haas no less)?  I always enjoyed his out-of-whack gimmick and he seemed to be somewhat over with the fans b/c of his outrageous antics.  Anyone that actually enjoyed a "stinkface" from Rikishi should be given some props!  Thanks!

Rico announced his retirement from Pro Wrestling in 2005, and went back into his previous career of law enforcement in Nevada.
