The charismatic Superstar debuted in early 2002, as a stylist to the heel duo of Billy & Chuck. Soon, he made his in-ring debut in a 6-man tag team match by teaming up with Billy & Chuck, against Al Snow, Maven, and Rikishi in a winning effort.

He later switched to Monday Night Raw, becoming the manager of 3-Minute Warning, a heel tag team consisting of Rosey and Jamal. Rico was released by WWE in 2004.

Almost a year after his WWE release, Rico finished his law enforcement training in Nevada. He later bagged the job of a Sergeant Inspector for the Nevada Taxi Cab Authority. The job saw Rico lead a squad of 10 officers on a graveyard shift in Clark County.

If anything happens with a cab, I’m involved.

Rico will always be remembered for his 'over the top' and outlandish gimmicks which often witnessed him flaunting exotico style dresses. He would use unorthodox methods to win matches, much to his opponent's surprise and disgust.

He completed his MBA from the Symbiosis Institute of Telecom Management in 2016 and worked with multiple banking institutions, including Tech Mahindra. While he started writing WWE articles for Sportskeeda in 2019 as a hobby, it eventually became a significant part of his professional journey.

Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.

He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.

When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
