Indie star Vinny Pacifico spoke with Jeremy Lambert and SP3 on Fightful Overbooked’s In The Weeds about various topics, including his tooth getting knocked out of his mouth after AEW star Katsuyori Shibata dropped kicked him during a match against The Opps on Dynamite and whether he owes Shibata any money.
Pacifico said, “I think I might have. That dropkick….two weeks ago, I had a match in the northeast and I got headbutted so hard my front tooth chipped. I went and got that filled in. Then, last Wednesday, I get dropkicked and I hear a crack. My back tooth just fell out. Thank God it was the back tooth. I got back and was like, ‘Yeah, it fell out.’”
On if he is going to get the tooth fixed:
“I’m gonna have to. I didn’t care at first, but when I drank it really stings. So I have to get it fixed.”
On not wanting to cause a scene:
“I didn’t want to cause a scene. ‘Ah, thank you very much.’ I shook his hand. I didn’t want to say anything. It’s not a big deal. I don’t think he knew. It sounded like a baseball bat.”
