| 1 | 15.04.2024 | Big R3d Mach1n3 | | Al Snow, the current owner of Ohio Valley Wrestling, was super over during his time in ECW and possess profound insight into the intricacies of the wrestling industry. What else can I say other than he's truly one of the Best |

| 5 | 05.03.2024 | ShaneSpear | | So i have to make a comment somewhere on the site in order to start rating things. So of all the wrestlers my brain could have come up with, Al Snow was the first one to pop in my hea--noggin. I can't rate him yet but if I could I'd probably give him about a 4. That's 1 for the mannequin head, 2 for pepper, 3 for teaming with Marty Jannetty, and 4 for being a part of the 2001 royal rumble, the hardcore one. |
| 6 | 29.02.2024 | Dirty Diego | 7.0 | Great mind for the Buisness , good trainer you can tell he has a great passion for the Buisness, his run in 98/99 with wcw and wwf was great the head gimmick was hilarious other than that he basically was lower mid card guy most of his long career but got to respect his hard work for the buisness |

| 9 | 26.01.2024 | cioran | 5.0 | Glorified enhancement talent and utterly insufferable human being who likes to hear himself talk. Always yammers on about "Tradition" and "the business", "integrity" whereas he's never had a memorable match, his best gimmick involved a sexual pun and a mannequin head, and most of his career consisted of hitting people with garbage can lids. Also being "that other guy" whose name no one knew in 6 man matches. People say he's a good worker in a lot of these comments but I think it's kind of like that big girl in high school people say has a pretty face. Only thing close to decent he wrestled was that match with Benoit, but Benoit could have carried a body pillow to a 3.5 star match. |

| 12 | 18.12.2023 | laddermatch | 5.0 | Al is a guy who was a great enhancement talent but that's all he was. He's the guy who made the stars look good and that was a good role for him to have. He's also a fairly decent trainer too. And, to his credit, he got an inanimate head over for a period of time. As far as he currently stands, I think he's a very bitter individual who has no grasp on what the modern wrestling fan is looking for. I think he's woefully out of touch just like Cornette and I think he sucks at running OVW. He thinks that Andre vs. Hogan was a better match than Savage vs. Steamboat because it drew more tickets, completely ignoring the artistic merit of the Savage/Steamboat classic. He's a guy whose opinion of modern wrestling should be discredited completely. |
| 13 | 11.12.2023 | greaterdale | 5.0 | I think Al is alright. He did a good job getting dumb sex shit over in an era with a sea of dumb sex shit gimmicks. I'll admit his head gimmick is so stupid it's actually entertaining, and his tag team with Steve Blackman with the nasty name I'll leave off this review is a good strange bedfellows tag team. He seems to be a pretty decent trainer and runs OVW now which is y'know a promotion that at least has weekly tv in the area. |
| 14 | 17.11.2023 | JediSaiyanMaster1203 | 4.0 | Never been an Al Snow fan, I always thought the "head" gimmick he did in ECW was ridiculously unfunny, gotta give it up to Paul Heyman knowing how to make chicken sh! t into chicken salad. Overall, a below average wrestler in the ring, not a good promo, no charisma, only got over because of Paul Heyman's booking, nothing more to see. |

| 16 | 02.11.2023 | InsertFunnyNameHere | 7.0 | Al Snow is an anomaly in the history of professional wrestling. Perennial job guy in WWF who becomes insanely popular off the back (or should I say head) of a bizarre gimmick in ECW. Then returns to WWF and resumes being a jobber. That being said, ECW Al Snow is something you just had to be there to witness. One of the most unique gimmicks in wrestling history. Also wish I could give him a 10 off using The Prodigy as entrance music alone, but a 7 seems like the most justifiable rating. |

Ein Bonuspunkt für seine heutigen Ansichten zum Wrestling Business, die er durchaus stark argumentiert (dabei aber nicht so unversöhnlich rüberkommt wie ein Jim Cornette) und mit denen er mir gar zu oft aus der Seele spricht. |

| 36 | 03.04.2023 | Leth99 | 7.0 | One of the many cases where a talented guy gets lost in the shuffle and never recovers. Not really that good as a commentator, okay wrestler and quite funny when talking. Not everyone is supposed to be a star, there are also those wrestlers (like him or Scotty 2 Hotty or Sami Zayn) who can make your day even if they're not given all the time in the world. And, quite frankly, I would take a 5 minute Al Snow match instead of a 30 minute modern Edge match anyday |
| 37 | 16.03.2023 | winston | 7.0 | People either forget the fact that Al Snow was good in the ring, or they view his in-ring work through a modern prism, forgetting that his largest period of main-stream exposure was in an era where you were lucky to get longer than five minutes in the ring (or they took Mick Foley's jokes about him as serious criticism rather than friendly banter). The truth is he was a talented performer who could work a variety of styles and, between the ropes, had relatively few weaknesses. What he lacked though was the ability to really make a connection with the audience, something that is true of 99% of workers; that undeniable "it factor" that a rare few possess. Having read his autobiography, I also felt that he came across as lacking somewhat in creativity and pro-activeness. He expressed frustration at the terrible gimmicks he was given, but for some reason he felt unable to (or discouraged from) pitching many ideas of his own, at least until Paul Heyman gave him a shot in ECW. Anyway, overall Snow was an underrated performer, but not one who could be classed in the uppermost echolon of performers. |

| 40 | 07.12.2022 | Conquistador37 | 6.0 | "Acceptable." Sometimes I wish cagematch allowed such brevity. Usually he was just another body, things ran smooth with everyone but nothing really sticks out either aside from certain hardcore affairs (great chemistry with Road Dogg here). The pairing with Jannetty was ok, but that gimmick, YIKES. Memorable gimmick with Head, not so memorable gimmick when he was in the midst of one of his many "floundering - but he trains on tough enough so, that's something! " runs. Fine enough promo, but he never mattered in the card so, meh. Absolutely definitely totally "acceptable" but little more. 6.25 rounded down. |

| 50 | 29.04.2022 | texasyosh | 5.0 | Al Snow is probably best remembered for being a comedy act. All in all he's a pretty okay wrestler, but it took him like a decade to reach his... potential? His potential was... being a job guy? Okay. His biggest accomplishment is probably being a pretty solid trainer, I dunno if he's as good as a booker though. |

| 60 | 09.11.2021 | OnlyHalfTheEffinShow | 8.0 | Al is a classic example of that age old wrestling adage of making chicken salad out of chicken shit. He was always a good worker, but much of the work he was given with pre-JOB squad sucked to put it mildly. His transition into the batshit insane king of the early Hardcore division following his stint in ECW where he invented his "Head" gimmick is what really got him over. |

Perfect example of a dude who did not have to give you much in the ring to make you appreciate his role and spot on the roster. He was mainly used as filler for live tv and , at least for me and my friends, we always looked forward to seeing al snow on raw and smackdown. More of a guilty pleasure than anything else. |

| 85 | 26.07.2019 | KyleEnjoysWrestling | 5.0 | With the head gimmick, Snow was only going to go so far. How long does the innuendo really last before it just gets tired & groan inducing? He was better in the ring than I think he gets credit for, but the jobber character just shown over everything else that the former Leif Cassidy had going for him. On second thought, knowing that Avatar & Cassidy were two of his other WWE gimmicks, I guess the head one was the best of the bunch. |
| 86 | 20.05.2019 | The Sick Lebowski | 7.0 | Fand ihn als kopfschwingenden Weirdo in der ECW saukultig. Bei der WWF/E in allen Gimmicks entweder gescheitert oder mehr oder minder belanglos behandelt. Im Ring kein ganz Großer, kann aber durchaus mithalten. Alles in allem wegen dem anfangs angesprochenem Kult sieben Punkte. |

| 88 | 08.11.2018 | RatingsMachine | 6.0 | Al Snow is the Attitude Era version of Joey Ryan; a guy who was fortunate enough to luck into a gimmick that got over, because he wasn't getting over through talent alone. |
| 89 | 08.11.2018 | JEK 1991 | 10.0 | Great wrestler. Excellent at in-ring psychology. He was always funny at promos and his gimmicks. Some of the gimmicks were horrible I must say. He is great on the mic. What does everybody want? What does everybody need? HEAD! Always exciting to watch. His interviewers are great! |

| 91 | 27.09.2018 | Oliver95x | 6.0 | Al Snow hatte echt Charisma, doch seine In-Ring-Abilitys waren leider nicht die besten. Trotzdem im allgemeinen war er ok. |
| 92 | 02.09.2018 | pappahouse | 7.0 | Mit Sicherheit fällt keinem der Name Al Snow oder Leif Cassidy als erstes ein, wenn man an Wrestling denkt, aber er war und ist ein Guter. Bestes Indiz dafür ist, seine Aufgabe als Trainer bei Tough Enough. |

| 94 | 11.05.2018 | InactiveGuru | 8.0 | What does everybody want? What does everybody need? if you followed his WWF/E run we all know the answer haha, seriously though Al Snow is an excellent in ring performer who had a zany character and was a staple on one of the most fun divisions in wrestling history (WWF's hardcore division) Also who remember's the job squad? |

| 97 | 05.02.2018 | A-Double | 7.0 | Ein Indie Darling der frühen 90er, konnte Al sein unbestreitbares Talent nie richtig auf der großen Bühne präsentieren. Erst in verschiedenen Gimmicks wie so viele in der WWF begraben erschuf er sich eine neue Identität in der ECW, welche ihm endlich auch in der WWF einen erfolgreichen Run als Midcarder verschaffte. Sehr guter Techniker und gute Promo. Aber noch wichtiger ist sein Einfluß als Trainer. Al Snow ist old school und hat ein Verständnis fürs Wrestling, wie wenige andere. So bleibt zu hoffen, dass er vielen Nachwuchstalenten auf den Weg hilft. |
| 98 | 01.02.2018 | CHN325 | 6.0 | Al Snow made a gimmick that shouldn't have worked, work. He was always solid in the ring and worked well when working in a secondary role. Great on the mic, good trainer as well. |
