~The scene opens in a dark brick wallpapered studio at OCW TV. In the dark lit studio we see The HOT 11! host Adi Gold sitting across from her is her guest this week is the OCW Savage Champion and the highest paid OCW TV star, PIC. ~
Adi Gold: Well let's say this is one of my personal favorite guests I was looking forward to interview. I know my Japanese investors, The Yakuza certainly are looking for to it as well. The current OCW Savage Champion. Mr. OCW TV himself, the legendary PIC! Hey, where is that 'Mo-Mo' guy? Usually he's around lurking... anyway. How are you doing .Pic?
PIC: I'm fine Adi. Glad to be able to take part in this interview and let the world know a little more about myself.
Adi Gold: Let's get started. Question one. You have been wrestling around the world your entire life. What would be your favorite match of all time, PIC? In or out of OCW?
PIC: My favorite match of all time outside of OCW took place in ICWF in 2004. It was an Ultimate Survival match. We do something similar here in December. In the first round, I teamed with Jason Blood, Justin Taylor, and Graystone against Derek Mobley, Josh Allen, Casanova, and Stitch. I was the sole survivor of that round, eliminating both Derek Mobley and Casanova by myself to advance. In the finals, I faced off against Jack Sullivan, Lucius Pendragon, and Street Shark, eliminating Pendragon to capture the victory. So far in OCW, my favorite match has been defeating Jace Parker Davidson for the Savage Championship.
Adi Gold: Question 2. And your favorite rivals? Who would they be?
PIC: My greatest rivals of all time have been, and continue to be TLS and Killa Kali. Even though we may be on decent terms these days, I've been wrestling the two of them off an on since 1999 and Kali's got something I want, so the two of us squaring off once again is inevitable. My feud with JPD was one of the tops this company has seen in years as well.
Adi Gold: Question 3. Is PIC a fan of music? Your theme is some classic 80s rock. Who are your favorite artists and bands?
PIC: Yes, of course I like music, and 80s rock is pretty defining for me. I'm 42 years old now, so I grew up on Bon Jovi, Def Leppard, Guns N Roses, and the like. I don't like a whole lot of today's music scene, but Sarah has tried to get me into it. She's not been successful so far.
Adi Gold: Question 4. You seem to be the kind of guy with a good knowledge of film. Any favorite movies or TV shows you enjoy or love you'd like to share with our audience?
PIC: I'm a self-proclaimed cinofile. My summers at one point were spent watching TCM almost exclusively. I'm a HUGE Humphrey Bogart fan, so right away Casablanca, The Big Sleep, The Maltese Falcon, and To Have and Have Not are up there. Anything with Jimmy Stewart, James Cagney, and Gary Cooper. The 80s movies I grew up on always have a special place in my heart as well. If I started listing them we'd run out of time. But yes, I love watching movies and moreso than with music, try to stay up with the latest releases when my work schedule allows it.
Adi Gold: Question 5. Here's a new question for the show. If you weren't a wrestler in OCW. What job do you think you'd be doing right now, PIC?
PIC: If I weren't wrestling I'd still be in the Djibouti countryside teaching the locals about Jesus. My missions work is by far the greatest thing I've ever done in this life. Sure, part of my motivation was to atone for past mistakes, but honestly, helping those less fortunate has become my calling. I know some folks have been calling me out on social media over the big money OCW TV contract I just signed, but that money is going to be able to help a lot of people.
Adi Gold: Question 6. Are you a heavy drinker? Casual drinker? Or don't touch the stuff? A favorite drink of yours?
PIC: Not a drinker at all. Used to party when I was in high school and early college, but haven't touched the stuff since then. I know the cool kids like to call it "straight edge", but it's just a lifestyle choice. It's helped me stay in shape and probably helped to prolong my career. At 42 there are only so many more years I've got left in the tank so taking care of my body has to be a top priority.
Adi Gold: Question number 7. I am sure PIC has wrestled around the world. But anywhere you haven't performed that you would like to someday? Or return to?
PIC: 7. My favorite places on earth are Haiti and Djibouti, for obvious reasons. Any chance I get to go back to those places, whether it be wrestling or otherwise, I'll take it in a heartbeat.
Adi Gold: Question 8. What do you enjoy as your favorite meal, PIC? Anything special?
PIC: I'm typically a steak and potatoes guy. I love a good ribeye, filet, NY strip, doesn't really matter. Medium rare of course. I'm big on seafood... stuff like lobster, crab, shrimp, scallops. I also love trying different cuisines from around the world. Haitian food is my tops there, but I also enjoy Japanese, Chinese, Mexican, Filipino. Basically you cook it, I'll try it!
Adi Gold: Question number 9. A romance or crush? Does PIC have his eye on someone in the wrestling business or out of it at the moment? Or is it strictly business right now?
PIC: Romance? What's that? Haha. No, I'm as single as can be, and for now I think it will stay that way. I was married for a while, and I still love her dearly. Circumstances beyond her control that I brought about ended that relationship. I won't comment much more on that for her benefit. So yeah, long story short... that's it. I'm pretty focused on my career at the moment so not really looking for anything in that department.
Adi Gold: Question 10. Anyone on the OCW roster, past or present that you would love to face off with?
PIC: As I said before, TLS and Kali have been rivals of mine since before some of the OCW roster was even born. Getting to square off against them one more time, with title implications, is intriguing. I haven't had an opportunity to step into the ring with CJ O'Donnell or any of the Straders. I'd love to battle Crash Rodriguez at some point. And, even though we've already faced each other once and are soon to do so again, Easton Alexander has been someone I've had my eye on. Oh! And how can I forget Alice Knight. I was told when I came into the company that she was scared to face me. I don't know if I believe it or not, but any chance to beat a legit OCW Hall of Famer is something I'd jump at.
Adi Gold: And finally. Question 11. Any goals left for PIC to complete? Maybe a run with the OCW Championship?
PIC: That's the only goal. Win the Mix. Beat TLS. Beat Kali or whoever has the title at that time for the big belt. It's the reason I came back to wrestling and it's the only priority for me. Any other accolades or side projects are fine, but I want the OCW Championship to cement my legacy as one of the best to ever do this. I won't stop until that belt is around my waist.
Adi Gold: Very cool. Any final words of advice to the OCW roster or fans at home from yourself?
PIC: I appreciate the opportunity to let the fans get to know me a little better. They've been incredibly supportive during this run and I owe most of my success to them. For those watching, stay tuned! There are a lot of exciting OCW TV projects on the horizon, including some feature length film opportunities.
Adi Gold: This was fun, PIC. Really. It was awesome getting to know things about the man with the beautiful hair. Say hi to Willie Peterson for me. He'd like that. Thanks again. And I look forward to doing some OCW TV projects with you in the future. Thank you for joining us at home. Have a GOLDgeous day. Take care and see you next time.
