They weren\u2019t aligned with the National Wrestling Alliance or any one particular territory. One of the last hold outs at the time in 95 and the early part of the 90s was ECW of course and WCW was still in existence and then Smoky Mountain with Jim Cornette. I had known Cornette for quite a few years and he never really seemed to take notice of me because I didn\u2019t have a character or definable personality per-say but that\u2019s the one thing you have to figure out for yourself.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I was working with Dan Severn and I had broken him into professional wrestling. He wanted to do UFC, which back then was truly it\u2019s own style of mixed martial arts. We went to Oklahoma City for UFC 4 and I trained and worked with Dan to prepare him for that and I was in his corner. He had won two fights and was being interviewed and I could tell that the interviewer was trying to have Dan put over Royce Gracie as the star of the UFC and they were trying to lead him on into saying something and I just snapped and after another stupid question I said what do you think he was going to do? He is going to have sex in the locker room and they cut us off real quick and got us out of there.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Cornette was watching the pay-per-view and thought it was awesome and at the time I was working for ECW for Paul Heyman, and he brought me into Smoky Mountain to be this smart-alecky chicken heel and unfortunately Eddie Gilbert had been in that spot and had passed away. Cornette had brought me into be Unibomb\u2019s (Glen Jacobs\/Kane) partner and I was supposed to be the mouth and pick the fights and Kane would be the muscle. Jim Ross was doing the announcing there and Jim recommended me and suggested me to WWF.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><b>Why his enormously successful run in ECW ended after being on loan by the WWF and not beating Shane Douglas at Wrestlepalooza 98:<\/b> &#8220;Paul [Heyman] loved to do the opposite and alternate thing and I think because Paul was in communication with the WWE a lot. I was really happy in ECW and I was prepared to send a letter to ask for my full release (from WWE) because you had to do it 90 days in advance. I was prepared to stay in ECW. But Paul E. never really invested anything in me, other then he gave me the TV time and he took what I did and I never really beat anyone or I didn\u2019t get what you would call a &#8216;wrestling push&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I didn\u2019t beat Sabu, I didn\u2019t beat Rob Van Dam, I didn\u2019t beat Tommy Dreamer on my way up to Shane Douglas. I worked with all the underneath guys, which was fine. But I had gotten over to the point where Paul E and ECW would have to capitalize on it. His great plan according to him was that everybody knows you are going to win. It\u2019s not going to change that fact that I am going to still get myself over and that sounds kind of arrogant to say, but it\u2019s the truth so it didn\u2019t matter to me if I won or lost because the one thing that is fake about wrestling is the won or loss doesn\u2019t matter if it still gets you over. I didn\u2019t think it was the right thing to do business wise, personally, because I thought that people would not be happy about it and I felt that business wise it would have been better to let me win it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><b>Outside opinions on ECW\u2019s use of Al Snow and who suggested he rejoin WWF in &#8217;98:<\/b> &#8220;To prove that point, I had spoken to Terry Taylor when I first went to TNA and he said, &#8216;I\u2019ve got to tell you that was the biggest mistake I had ever seen because I so expected you to win and felt you should have. The minute you didn\u2019t that was it, I was done. I didn\u2019t care about ECW anymore.&#8217; That\u2019s an unsolicited opinion. So at that same time, I had just re-signed with WWE and the reason I had was because Vince Russo had contacted me about sending tapes on what I had been doing into the office. I was reluctant to do it and to go back. It wasn\u2019t about the money for me, I just enjoyed doing what I was doing. But then I saw a brand new opening to the (ECW) show that they had just redone it and I wasn\u2019t featured anywhere in the opening. Which told me I wasn\u2019t one of the acts that Paul E. had plans for. That made my mind up and I was going to send my stuff into Vince.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><i>Other topics include Vince Russo, ECW, WWE, Mick Foley, Vince McMahon, his ownership of OVW, SMW, training
