D'Angelo 'The Pope' Dinero Responds To Internet Reports

"The Pope" wasn't born until TNA, kinda hard to say "The Black Pope" in 3rd person, 15min promo Toledo,OH? LMBO. Thanks 4 da publicity~ PHS"

Contrary to his statement, the "Pope" persona was cultivated before he joined TNA.

Shortly after his May 2008 disappearance from WWE airwaves, Dinero was repackaged with a gothic persona by the name of "Black Pope." He came out completely dressed in black and performed praying gestures during matches. However, the gimmick never made it to television as he was released by the organization in November 2008.
