Al Snow and Bob Holly's Bizarre Grudge Feud

Inside Wrestling October 1999

By Harry Burkett

It sounds like a bizarre soap opera,yet this crazy plot cannot be found anywhere on daytime television.The story involves a schizophrenic who gets advice from a mannequin head,which happens to win a major wrestling championship.An ex-race car driver,insecure about his flaky image from a previous life,is determined to win the mannequin's championship at any cost.

The plot gets more convoluted when the schizophrenic introduces his new inspiration,a stuffed deer head.The ex-race car driver tricks the schizophrenic into thinking the mannequin head is champion.During a later match,the schizophrenic hits the mannequin head with the deer head and scores the pin,thinking the deer head is the new champion.The ex-race driver destroys the deer head and the schizophrenic holds a funeral........Whew!

The players are Al Snow,Bob Holly,and Head,with cameo appearances by Pierre.The scary part is that Snow and Holly know exactly what the other man is trying to do.Even scarier,Head and Pierre might be the only sane characters in this insane melodrama!

Forget all about Susan Lucci finally winning a daytime Emmy;we think the year's most significant acting Award should go to Pierre as Best Actor!After all it must have been tough for Pierre to train Al Snow to make convincing deer sounds-and the sight of Pierre playing strip poker with Al was a classic comedy bit.

All this would be funny if it weren't so sad.

"Hardcore Holly may have beaten the stuffings out of Pieere,but the spirit of the deer head lives on,"enthused Snow."I'm still the hardcore champion,and Head is back in my corner.Yes,I'll admit there was some jealousy between Head and Pierre.But I assured Head that Pierre and I did not finish that strip poker game."

Snow slumping in a corner and smiling giddly at Head has become a common sight in WWF locker rooms.But that doesn't explain why Bob Holly is caught up in the maddness.If his stint as Sparky Plugg didn't drive him into a mental health facility,it's difficult to imagine anything that could.

Reinvented and reinvigorated as Hardcore Holly,the Mobile Alabama native is fighting to gain respect.When it seemed that the hardcore title might do that for him,he lost the belt to Snow and was dragged into a crazy feud.

Any progress Holly had made in regainng his self-respect was destroyed when Head and Pierre entered the picture.The Snow drove that darn toy race car into the arena,making a mockery of Holly.That was it.Holly's repressed insecurities became full-blown phobias-and Holly is acting as nutty as Snow!

"If I've got to get loonier than a bedbug,I'm gonna do it,"spat Holly."Al Snow thinks he can psych me out,but he doesn't know what he's in for.I'v entered his demented world,and I'm destroying it from the inside.When Al wanted to think Head was hardcore champ,I arranged it so Head would lose the belt to Al.Then there's Pierre.I ripped those antlers right off his stinkin' head.Pierre should've never gotten involved."

What?! Perhaps Holly has gone a little too far into Snow's world....and hasn't quite found his way back out.

"I'll play Snow's game for as long as it takes,"said Holly."Maybe I'll get my race car and run a few laps in the kooksville 500. No,hold on, I'll bring my Richard Petty action figures from when I was a kid.Ol' number 43 is as hardcore as it gets."

The Longer this feud rolls on,the more dangerous it will become for both men.Their mental health will continue to deteriorate,and their hardcore matches will become more hazardous.Using tables,crates,and golf carts is one thing,but it's impossible to predict what other kinds of weapons these combatants will use on each other.It has to stop before someone is seriously hurt.

Besides,the Snow-Holly war is bad for the WWF overall.Other competiors are steering clear of the hardcore division in order to steer clear of the craziness.Once the Snow-Holly feud became ignited,top stars like Jesse James and Billy Gunn straight for the regulation ranks.WWF officials should consider scrapping the hardcore division and calling it the"insanity division"or as Jim Ross would refer to it,"pet coon division."

But Holly's strategy of acting as crazy as Snow might not work.Snow is getting a real thrill out of the whole affair."Me and Bob can play hopscotch,bash each other's brains out with trash cans,then play pattycake,"he said."Right here and now,I challenge Bob to a specialty match.The winner is the first guy who ties himself up in a straitjacket.I might be the prince of hardcore,but I'm also the King of crazy!"

It could have been failed gimmicks that sent these men to the mental stratosphere.Or it could have been too many chair shots taken in too short a time.Whatever it was,let's hope these wrestlers receive intensive therapy.....and quickly!
