PCO Denies Using Replica Belt in Chaotic TNA Exit

PCO is not holding back as he shoots down reports surrounding his chaotic departure from TNA Wrestling. After reports surfaced that the belt he attempted to smash at The People vs. GCW was a replica, the former TNA star fired back with a no-nonsense response.

“Why would I had a replica, that the dumbest thing I heard from people wearing suits in office,” PCO wrote, clearly refuting claims from TNA sources who said the real Digital Media Championship belt remains in their possession.

This controversy adds another layer to PCO’s already dramatic exit from TNA. Wrestling Observer Radio previously revealed that PCO’s contract situation fell apart when the company reneged on a verbal agreement, offering him a lower deal amid cost-cutting measures. Despite agreeing to the reduced terms, TNA later decided not to renew his contract at all.

What followed was a shocking moment at The People vs. GCW, where PCO took the TNA Digital Media Championship and attempted to destroy it with a sledgehammer. The unscripted act stunned fans and GCW officials alike, with the show abruptly cutting away. Reports from TNA claimed he used a replica belt for the stunt, a claim PCO has now aggressively denied.

TNA reportedly asked PCO to drop the title at a San Antonio taping as part of his exit plan, but according to Dave Meltzer, communication broke down, and PCO never heard from the company again. This silence may have fueled the rogue stunt that has wrestling fans buzzing.

With TNA distancing itself from PCO and the former champion adamant about setting the record straight, the fallout from this saga is far from over. PCO’s next move remains uncertain, but his bold actions and unfiltered words ensure he won’t be forgotten anytime soon.
