Exclusive: Al Snow on Mick Foley, Head, Marty Jannetty, WWE, and wrestling in the Mississippi River

Carmella

makes a good Al Snow!

You might be one of the best known trainers in the world - are there any current Superstars or wrestlers out there that you see some of yourself in?

I don't know. I don't know how other people view me, so I can never look at someone and be like, "Oh, that guy's like me." I don't know. I hope that there are... Those wrestlers up there have an even greater success than I ever had. I don't want them to just do what I did, I want them to outdo me and make the most of the opportunity they have, because they have an incredible opportunity with WWE.

They just need to know that, exploit that, take advantage of it as much as they possibly can. They need to know what it is they're focusing on and why, and what they're looking to do with that opportunity.

It's not about going there like, "I'm going to have a great wrestling match," and "I'm going to be a great wrestler." You can and you should but the real objective is to use that worldwide platform to make yourself an incredible attraction.

Make yourself the next Steve Austin, make yourself the next Rock, make yourself the next John Cena. Use that platform to create opportunities that extend well beyond and above anything you've done in wrestling. Don't try go out there just to have a five-star match. That's not going to parlay into making you a household name around the world.

One man who reminds me of Al Snow, mainly due to the facial expressions and the underlying, enigmatic components of the character is Bray Wyatt.

Oh! Well, I hope that he avoids the pitfalls that I had and capitalises more on what opportunities he has, and really takes advantage of it.

Similarities?
