After inking a deal with Nike, Aaron sat down with Takedown Wrestling for an interview. Check out what the champ had to say. 

Aaron, fighting at 145.5 pounds, won his first place match against Zain Retherford 7-0 at the U.S. Open Championships in Las Vegas, NV last week. You can track down the rest of Tony Rotundo's gallery of Aaron's win at wrestlersarewarriors.com. Congratulations to Aaron on his most recent step to the top!

Custom new Pico mouthpiece!

Recently Aaron Pico took a trip to Cuba for some training in preparation for the US National Championships. Despite his busy schedule he still found some time to take in some sites.

"There’s nothing or anything like winning. I mean the higher you go, the moment just gets better and better —  the things you do, the things you and your family do, all the sacrifices you make, leads up to that moment and it only lasts so long and in the heat of the moment you win and you know it only lasts so long and then its like, what’s next? It’s a short moment and you know you gotta enjoy for as long as you can."

Here at Dethrone, we celebrated the launch of the new website by introducing the rest of the world to Aaron Pico. As soon as we launched, the Twitter-verse went nuts with support! #RoadToRio #AaronPico
