Could the French Frankenstein have one last WWE run?

Could PCO be set for a return to WWE? With Triple H now in charge, the former ROH World Champion believes that one more WWE run could be in his future.

Speaking to Wrestling Inc., PCO was asked whether a return to WWE is more likely now that Vince McMahon is out of the equation and Paul Levesque is steering the ship.

"Yeah, I think so. I don't think I had a bad relationship with Vince, but I think new blood and guys like Paul, Triple H... I mean, other than I had my altercation with his best buddies at the time, I remember when he come in the WWE from WCW, we rode together. We did a bunch of shows where we shared a car and we were on the road together for almost two, three weeks, almost a month."

PCO previously had two stints in the then-World Wrestling Federation, initially in 1993 as part of the Quebecers tag team with Jacques Rougeau. That partnership temporarily came to an end when Rougeau retired in '94, and PCO - as Jean-Pierre LaFitte - famously feuded with Bret Hart before troubles with the Kliq eventually saw him depart the company in 1995.

Pierre Carl Oullet would reteam with the out-of-retirement Rougeau in WCW as the Amazing French Canadians by the end of 1996, though that run lasted barely six months. The pair would return to McMahon's sports entertainment juggernaut in January 1998, with that forgettable run technically lasting until 2000. Elsewhere, the Canadian powerhouse would spend time in the likes of ECW and TNA before his career was reinvigorated in 2018 as the monstrous, near-invincible PCO character.

As PCO, the three-time WWE Tag Team Champion found major success in Ring of Honor and these days finds himself in IMPACT Wrestling as part of the promotion's ongoing on-screen rivalry with former ROH talents.
