He's been real good for a few years now, especially in AAW in Chicago. Seen him live three times, he had standout matches with Colt Cabana and Davey Richards. Also had a hell of a series last year with Michael Elgin.

I've seen him quite a few times in Green Bay. He's very talented in the ring and pretty good on the mic. A great heel, but he has a lisp.

Silas never really got the breaks like others have. He signed a developmental deal with WWE. Moves to OVW on his own dime only for WWE to cut ties with OVW a few weeks later. He's one of the few wrestlers who don't get sent to FCW and loses his contract. Works in AAW for years. Bust his ass and carry the company on his back way before they got internet buzz. Finally earns recognition and bookings outside of AAW.

He's related to Stan Hansen IIRC.

Also saw him today for the first time. Gave me a little bit of that 'it factor' vibe. Want to see more.

Silas Young is the man. He's an incredible heel. I've gotten to see a lot of his work in AAW and the man has it. No question. He carried the AAW title for the better part of three years (including a 15 month reign) and it didn't get old. He gets heat just by looking at people. It's phenomenal. Being a heel and using "Don't Stop Believin" doesn't hurt, either.
He finished up a program with Michael Elgin (including an amazing hour iron man and an I quit match) that was out of this world. The lisp can get a little annoying, but I don't think it holds him back. He's an excellent promo.
I'm really happy he's getting more exposure. He deserve that and so much more. And you're right, he's Hansen's nephew.
