Al Snow was also a crazy guy who made friends with inanimate objects and who hit his head. Why no love for him?

Al Snow's crazy love for an inanimate object actually got over with some crowds. It's emphasis that the gimmick is a desired dud.
It might be because I didn't read the spoilers (and don't plan to), but I assumed the mannequin was a one-off thing. It first came about with Orlando Jordan talking to the mannequin on Xplosion, so it made some twisted sort of sense for Eric Young to bring it out.

I was wondering about the mannequin he was carrying to the ring. I thought it was rather odd. It seemed like he was making fun of Orlando Jordan, at least that it what I thought it was.

I like this gimmick it can go places Foley also had love for a sock so apparently if your in love with or talk to an inanimate object it can do wonders for your career look at track record
Mick Foley- Multiple Champion
Saturn- Multiple Champion
Snow- Multiple champion
The glass ceiling can be broken Eric can do it

Never. Perry actually made the gimmick work, mostly because he looked like an extremely tough guy so it was funnier.

Not at all. Saturn was a crazy badass, who would beat the hell out of you, and look like a monster doing it. Eric Young is just goofy.For the three days he was part of the band, I just couldn't take him seriously.

Young isn't nearly as talented. Saturn could make anything work somehow.

Until Young mysteriously goes missing for a long time, I don't think so.

Yeah, because Saturn's gimmick did wonders for his post-Moppy career.
It's not the actual "concussion/amnesia/wacky talk" gimmick that's the problem. It's creating good follow-up that doesn't boil down to "I wasn't myself" or just dropping the gimmick as if nothing happened. It's a delicate balance that well..has never been done properly in professional wrestling.

Al Snow was also a crazy guy who made friends with inanimate objects and who hit his head. Why no love for him? He was just crazy to begin with. He didn't start talking to inanimate objects as a direct result of serious head trauma. At least TNA decided to go the tasteful route and not make him pure evil from head trauma. Now if only real life would've done the same to a certain other person... |
