I know the easy answer is "Show him to the door" and I have no problem agreeing with that. However, the company has been keeping him for 4 years and he only had one major storyline(albeit poorly recevied) to date with Kane.
Now, if they can release others who haven't(or even have) been used on TV, then he should be no different. But if they are going to keep this 300 pound hoss, AT LEAST do something with him. So this subject brings him to this thread. If you were forced to keep Snitsky on the payroll, how would you use him?
I'd give him a midcard push(hold your flamethrower) as a monster who would stop at nothing to succeed. Have him go all psycho on his opponents, and later have him team up with Umaga(wherever he is). Those two can run a muck through jobber tag teams and as they move up the card, they can go for the tag team titles, wheather they win it is another story, but at least make them look like a credible threat to the division. Snitsky can also be the hired gun for Vickie Guerrero knowing his size and all.
Any thoughts?

Release him. They already tried to push him as a midcard monster.

I'll take choice C: "Fire him and give his spot to someone who actually has a chance of getting over with the fans."
That said, I can't see how vince would ever be "forced" to keep him on the payroll. But I'll play along.......
They've already tried to push Snitsky on multiple occasions, and the guy simply has failed to get over. At this point, I wouldn't waste any more television time on the guy. He'd either get paid to sit home and sit out the remainder of his contract, or at the very best I'd have him jobbing in dark matches and house shows.

Let him do something besides be a boring bald hoss.
He was entertaining with Edge and Goldust. Then they turned him into the Undefeated Snitsky.... and it sucked.

Break Jesse and Festus up, with the story being that the bell ending his "rage" mode is getting less and less effective. Move Snitsky to Smackdown!, have him wrestle Festus and let him just how destructive he is. Snitsky takes him underneath his wing, teams up with him, and eventually have a feud with Yang and Jesse (dunno, I think that at least they could make a decent temporary team). Move Festsky to Raw if you 'd like, at some point, or eventually have them split.

Future Endeavour him, to be honest. Though I do like the Festus idea.

Let him grow out his hair until it's possible to cut it into a military hairstyle. Shave off any facial hair. Tattoo his entire back with a single tattoo. Give him the F-5 as his finish. Change his name to Bork Laser.

Tag him with Knox and give them the tag titles and a good run with the straps The Beard Brothers. And they could use Santino as a foreign object.

How do you solve a problem like Snitsky?

How about this.
Have him grow his hair out, put on a suit, and pair him with Zeke and Kendrick, then bring in a third big man as well. Make them Kendrick's buddies/bodygaurds; the small guy with big guys as backup.
Once again, just a stupid thought.

I like how the OP says "imagine you are forced to keep Snitsky on the roster" and everyone says "release him". Show some imagination! Sheeeezh.
In MY world, when Goldust returns he is of the creepy, non-comical variety. Snitsky is his manservant kinda guy. Have him dress like Riff Raff from Rocky Horror. He's still big, ugly and scary. Why would he be with Goldust? 'Cause. Snitsky is supposed to love pain or whatever so that's how Goldust pays him. With pain. Psychological, metal, whatever. Big. Scary. Gimp.

Stephanie McMahon in an attempt to win over the roster (and thus obtain their support when strives for total power) grants every susperstar one wish. Think of that scene in Who Shot Mr Burns where Skinner takes requests from the staff. Ricky Ortiz asks for his own t-shirt, HBK asks for a match with JBL, Dolph Ziggler asks for his own talk show, R-Truth asks for Steph to sing along with him, HHH asks if she can watch the baby tonight, etc, etc.
Snitsky, however, proclaims that he has always wished for his own sitcom. (It was an idea someone had on here A while back, it needs to happen.) So, basically, he and an unenthusiastic Val Venis have their own show on WWE.com with Dean Malenko as the grouchy neighbour. He can then focus all about that instead of wrestling, losing matches due to squabbles with agent over his portfolio, arguing with scriptwriters, etc, etc.

Turn him back to face, give him comedy roles.
