El Generico is a Canadian professional wrestler, with a gimmick of a luchador supposedly from Mexico. He is known for speaking in broken Spanish and only saying the word "Ole!" He is also a part of the former Pro Wrestling Guerrilla Tag Team "Two Skinny Black Guys" with Human Tornado as well as the team "Cape Fear" with Quicksilver, which currently hold the PWG World Tag Team Championship. His theme music is "Ole!" by the punk band Bouncing Souls.
On February 24, 2007, Generico defeated the PWG World Champion (and former tag team partner) Human Tornado to win the title. This makes him the first man in PWG history to hold both belts at once.
On March 10, 2007, the newly appointed PWG Commissioner of Foods and Beverages, Excalibur, stripped Cape Fear (Quicksilver and El Generico) of their PWG Tag Team Titles.
