he sounds like a dick but he is doing it on purpose to show that these guys and alot of internet "nerds" dont know much either

Al Snow puts a nice Jim Cornette-like theatre in his voice.

The absolute worst thing psychology-wise is when a wrestler falls out of the ring, and his opponent gets out and THROWS HIM BACK IN. Even worse if it's a title match and it's the champion throwing the challenger back in. HBK had the right idea during his first WM match against Undertaker.

Actually the business was most on its ass in 1995, wwf was losing millions as was wcw, so if the top two companies were losing millions. That is a bad situation, today wwe is making millions, by definition it's not the lowest point ever. It's a lot lower than it used to be, but it's not at it's lowest point.

@tarison13 Finally someone commenting on Al Snow, who is using their brain. People don't like what Al Snow's comment, because it exposes the internet fans for being the "marks" that the Pro Wrestling companies have always known them to be. I;m glad that Al Snow shoots straight with the REAL fans, who know that it's a business, geared to get the fan's money. A show with a pre-determined outcome. An illusion, just like magic.

@LTopomcFly They should fix the product in stead of telling us how they'd fix it and how the problem is that the fans don't notice the product isn't as good as it could be. That's what I'm saying to all the wrestlers that blame the fans. Different people have different tastes but at least do what you do well.

Snow is a brilliant man when it comes to the wrestling business and, as condescending as his tone may have been, he is dead on the money here. If you need to see exactly what Al Snow is talking about watch the Miz/Cena "I quit" match from Over the Limit 2011 (aka the "passion of the Cena" match).

@CookieMangler But if you just accept crappy food than it IS your fault and not the good cooks who are trying to feed you better
