with Mankind
Brought into the WWF in 1995, where he made a few televised
appearences as the masked, Avatar, who was portrayed of a person
who came to save the WWF.
Came back later on in early 1996 where he wrestled as a
ninja dubbed, Shinobi, where he lost to Shawn Michaels on an
episode of WWF Superstars, then lost to Ahmed Johnson the next
day on RAW, and we never saw him again.
Ironically, the same night Shinobi debuted, we also saw
the debut of Leif Cassidy. The tag titles we're stripped of the
Smoking Gunns(Billy Gunn & Bart Gunn), in February 1996 due to
Billy Gunn getting a neck injury. A tag team tournament was then
taking place on Superstars to crown new champs. Marty Jannetty
was going around saying he found a new partner, and out came,
Leif Cassidy, who portrayed a dorky 70's goofball. They lost that
night in the tournament to the Godwinns. They teamed on for the
rest of the year, and Marty dissappeared from the WWF around
December 1996. Snow still hanged around as Leif Cassidy until
Summer '97 where after he lost a match he yelled at JR, and
the WWF loaned Cassidy over to ECW.
There he developed the character of Al Snow, where he
claimed he solved the problems of his life after finding
a manequin "Head" and Snow started to write "Help Me" on his
forehead. Snow's tenure in ECW went pretty good and went back
to the WWF after finishing his last match on an ECW PPV in
April 1998.
Snow debuted the night after that ECW PPV, where Michael
Cole was giving a backstage update, and you heard a banging on
the behind garage door, it opened up and out appeared Al Snow
with Head.
Over the next few weeks in April and May, Snow went into
a feud with Jerry "The King" Lawler, because Lawler didn't give
Snow his meeting with Vince McMahon to see if he can get back in
the WWF, and argued with WWF officials, and kept on getting kicked
out of WWF events, until he got a tag team match where his partner
was Head faced the duo known as Too Much(now known as Too Cool)
which had Jerry Lawler's son, "Too Sexy" Brian Christopher and
"Too Hot" Scott Taylor(now they are known as Scotty Too Hotty and
Grandmaster Sexy). Anyways to make matter worse, Jerry Lawler was
the guest referee. In the match while Snow was buisy with Taylor,
Lawler a put a bottle of Head and Shoulders shampoo attached
Head, and Christopher covered Head "shoulders down" and Lawler
counted the three for the win. According to the stipulation,
if Snow lost, he would have to leave the WWF.
But Snow kept on interfering in matches, and got another
retirement match on a September episode of RAW against then
Commissioner, Sgt. Slaughter. He beat him and got a contract
into the WWF.
Snow started to team with Scorpio in the WWF and they
defeated Too Much at the September 1998 PPV, In Your House:
Breakdown.
Around October he formed the Job Squad with Scorpio,
and Bob Holly with the Blue Meanie and Duane Gill joining
later on.
In November at the Survivor Series, Snow was part of the
one-night 14 man tournament for the World Belt. In the first round
Snow defeated Goldust, but ended up losing to Mankind in the
quarter-finals.
Snow was starting to compete in the new, WWF Hardcore
division, where he dubbed himself, the "Crowned Prince of
Hardcore." He lost to the Road Dogg in a Hardcore Title
match in December, later on Road Dogg was suppose to face
Al Snow in a rematch for the Hardcore title at the February
1999 PPV, In Your House: St. Valentine's Day Massacre, but
Road Dogg got injured just day earlier, and was stripped of
the title. A couple days later on RAW, Snow went on a rampage
and was beating himself up in the ring, fellow Job Squad member,
Bob Holly came up to help Snow, but they instead started beating
each other up. They faced each other at Massacre where the winner
gets the vacant Hardcore Title, the fought all the way into the
Mississippi River, and Holly ended up pinning Snow on the
Riverbank after Holly trapped Snow in fencing. Bob Holly was then
dubbed Hardcore Holly.
Snow got another hardcore title shot in his first ever
Wrestlemania, in a triple threat Hardcore Title match against
Hardcore Holly and new champ, Billy Gunn. Snow got his signature
Snowplow finisher on Gunn and went for the pin, but Holly whacked
Snow with a chair and pinned Gunn to regain his championship.
Snow finally won the Hardcore title from Holly in the
April PPV, In You House: Backlash and held it for the longest
Hardcore title reign so far today, which was 3 months. He lost
the title to the Big Boss Man at the Fully Loaded PPV in July,
but regained it at a month later at Summerslam. He lost it 2
days later back to Big Boss Man. He won the belt back a month
later for his 3rd reign and lost it back to the Boss Man in
October, a month later. He won the tag titles from from Hardcore
Holly & Crash Holly in early November, but lost them 6 days later
on RAW to the New Age Outlaws. Hopefully the future holds more
title reigns for Snow, and he may one day win the WWF world belt.
