Wrestler History: Not too much is known about Nicky
De Niro prior to his arrival in the AICW. It is often said that those
who did know about his past, "knew too much" and "disappeared." He
gained a reputation as a shrewd businessman and because he was so successful
came under a lot of scruntiny. He was found not guilty in a federal
racketeering case and
was pardoned by the government. He then went to wrestle in the
ASW. He spent only a short time there, and left due to unknown reasons.
He has arrived in the AICW and has already gained a controversial reputation.
Wrestler Profile: Nicky De Niro's philosophy is to never get attached to anything you are not willing to walk out on in 30 seconds flat if you feel the heat around the corner. That's all he'll ever tell you about himself. Just look at him in the ring, respect him and what he does, and most importantly, stay out of his way.
Theme Song: "God Moving Over the Face of the Waters" by Moby
What would you do if you met OJ Simpson in a dark alley? | I'd tell him what a big mistake it was to not call MY lawyers...or
to call me period. I could've gotten people to change their opinions
about him, because I've got a knack for that sort of thing, but TRUST me...you
REALLY don't want to know about that side of my personality. I really
don't know what to add...maybe the question should be: What would you do
if you met Nicky De Niro in a dark alley? Don't ask
anybody, because you'll probably scare a lot of people half-to-death. |
Who/what has been your biggest influence? | Ehhh....Marlon Brando. John Gotti was someone I once looked up to, but things went downhill for him a few years ago. That's about it. I've come up with my own influences. I truly am my own man. Nobody ever had to tell me what to do. |
What is the worst thing that happened to you in your youth? | I was on my way to school and the local hoods beat me up and took my lunch money. I learned a few holds, a few other things and took care of those bastards. |
What is the worst pain you ever felt in your life? (physical/emotional) | I really can't say, because all pain eventually goes away, and
after that, it's like it never happened. I guess I still haven't fully recovered from having to sit through "Scream". |
If you could meet one person, at any point in history, who would it be? What would you say to them? | Hitler. I wouldn't say anything. I'd just kill him. |
Boxers or briefs? | Silk boxers. |
What is the greatest thing you've ever achieved? | Building up a successful business empire from the streets. |
What are your favorite and least favorite foods? | Anything Italian. But I hate fish. Why? I dunno...maybe
it's
all those "sleep with the fishes" references people make. |
Favorite musicians/songs? | Ehh..Led Zeppelin, Billy Joel. I like any kind of rock-and-roll. I hate rap. I'm glad those 2Pac and Biggie BIG are gone. Good job Sergio. |
Favorite movie? | What the hell kind of joke are you people trying to pull? I think it's obvious what I like! I hate those damn teenybopper movies like "Scream". I appreciate GOOD acting. My favorite movie is "The Godfather", but I have a particular attachment to Part Two. I hate Humphrey Bogart though. He has no talent whatsoever! I swear to God, if I hear one more person say "here's lookin' at you kid", I'll smack 'em! |
If you had one wish, what would it be? | I don't like to wish for things...I make things happen. |
Where do you see yourself in 10/20/50 years? | 10: A shiny gold belt around my waist. 20: Same thing.
50:
Retired on my own private island. |
If you went to McDonalds and found a rat in your burger, what would you do? | Someone else will find the grill cook in their burger. |
What would you do if someone broke into your home? | Send them to a psychiatrist. I don't think anyone is that stupid. I'd slap 'em around a bit though. I'd do some bad things to them and the people they know, but if I tell you about that, I'd have to kill you too. |
If you weren't wrestling in the AICW, what would you be doing? | None of your business. |
Worst job you ever had? | Scrubbing barnacles off the sides of the docks when I was 12. |
Assuming there is a God, what will you say to him when you die? | Ask him for five minutes alone with Richard Nixon. He's the one who started the downhill spiral for people in my line of business. |
What do you always keep in your fridge? | Normal stuff. Don't even begin to ask what's in my freezer
though. Just feel lucky that's it's not you. |
What do you look for in a mate? | That's private. I don't like when people pry. When you pry into my life, you walk in a minefield. |
If you could freeze all time and motion, what three things would you do? | -1. I'd kick the hell out of the Knick Man.
-2. Rob a few banks, because I can't do that in real life or I'll get in trouble. -3. Other random things. Just hope that you aren't around in the area for me to do them. |
