Pierre Carl Oulette has had something of a career resurgence in the last year.
Billed as simply PCO, the former WWF and WCW star, 50 years old, has recreated himself as an unstoppable beast who seemingly feels no pain, informed equally by classic pro wrestling brawling characters and the legend of the Frankenstein Monster. PCO has become a cult attraction on the independent scene, just as likely to hit a moonsault off the top to the floor as he is to brawl around ringside, and with good reason – the persona and act is extremely entertaining.
PCO's career resurgence has been so successful that it’s earned PCO his first contract in professional wrestling since his run in World Championship Wrestling, teaming with Jacques Rougeau.
It's been confirmed by many different outlets that PCO has signed a full time, exclusive contract with Ring of Honor and will be starting with the promotion immediately. In recent ROH TV episodes, a video featuring a heartbeat monitor has aired. It's not hard to surmise that is leading to an announcement that PCO is on his way. It is believed PCO officially signed within the last several days. He has begun pulling off independent dates and is finished with Major League Wrestling, where he had been appearing over the last year.
California star Brody King has signed with Ring of Honor, King is expected to start as soon as the 12/15 TV tapings in Philadelphia, PA. King is currently finishing up independent dates as his ROH deal is an exclusive with the company.
King, has gained a lot of attention over the last year with his work in Pro Wrestling Guerrilla, AAW and Major League Wrestling, among other promotions, bringing a brash, brawling style to the ring. He has pulled off his remaining MLW bookings and is already done there.
King joins Jeff Cobb and PCO as new signings for the company. Yesterday, broke word that former ROH TV Champion Silas Young has inked a three-year deal with ROH as well.
