Staten Island, New York – September 27, 2024 – Vinny “Power Punch” Pacifico’s journey from wrestling fan to world-traveled professional wrestler is a story of passion, perseverance, and hard-earned success. His career, marked by high-profile appearances across the globe, sponsorship deals with major energy drink brands, and a foray into acting, showcases his dedication to excelling in every facet of life. With the nickname “Energy Drink King,” Pacifico has electrified wrestling audiences worldwide, drawing fans not just from wrestling but also from gaming, anime, and energy drink communities.
Vinny’s love for professional wrestling started early. His fascination with the sport was sparked by the video game Smackdown vs. Raw 2007, which introduced him to legends like Rey Mysterio and John Cena. That passion grew after attending his first live event, SummerSlam 2007, igniting a dream to become a wrestler. Although football was his main focus in high school, Pacifico knew that stepping into the ring was his true calling. A fateful encounter with Bryan Danielson (WWE’s Daniel Bryan) at a New York meet-and-greet was the final push he needed to pursue his dream.
After training at the prestigious Ring of Honor dojo, Pacifico quickly gained attention, wrestling for renowned promotions like New Japan Pro Wrestling, Evolve, WWE, and All Elite Wrestling (AEW). His talent took him beyond the United States, with appearances in Japan, Canada, England, and more, and he’s set to debut in countries like the Netherlands and Germany in the coming months.

A major turning point came when Pacifico’s unique in-ring moment involving an energy drink went viral. The viral sensation led to a sponsorship with BANG Energy, later followed by an even bigger deal with G-Fuel Energy, which sent shockwaves through the wrestling community. These partnerships, combined with his charismatic personality and engaging social media presence, have helped him build a brand that transcends wrestling, appealing to energy drink lovers, gamers, and anime fans alike.
Pacifico’s success isn’t limited to the wrestling ring. He’s also ventured into acting, landing a lead role in an upcoming pro wrestling-themed horror movie. His dedication to his craft and his desire to continuously improve are evident in everything he does, from his time in the gym to his focus on social media, diet, and in-ring training. He’s driven by short-term goals that eventually build toward larger achievements, a strategy that has carried him from a childhood dream to international success.
Through his journey, Pacifico remains grounded and grateful. He credits his late grandfather, Bob Pacifico, for inspiring his work ethic and commitment to excellence. His wife and family are his biggest supporters, pushing him to achieve greatness in everything he does. And despite his growing success, Pacifico’s goal remains simple: to inspire others to chase their dreams, just as he did.
For aspiring wrestlers and dreamers alike, Vinny “Power Punch” Pacifico offers a powerful message: hard work, determination, and self-belief can break any barrier. As he continues to travel the world and build his brand, his story of resilience and ambition serves as a beacon of hope for anyone looking to take that first, scary step into the unknown.
