Only reason he wasn't WWWF Champion for longer was all the riots he caused.

Being a proud Puerto Rican Wrestling fan I heard alot of stories of Pedro from my Parents who loved him to death along with Bruno. From what I was told he was truly as popular as Bruno during that era. I wished I got to see in his prime RIP Pedro.
