Interview with Al Snow
We come back and Al Snow is making his way into WWF NY. Al is wearing a Santa hat. He really gives the fan a lot of love. He walks down in front of them hugging and slapping their hands. He gets up to one and puts his Santa hat on him and gives him a kiss on the cheek (forgive me if it wasn’t a little boy). ~It was extremely sweet. Al is the man!!!~ Tazz and Snow look like they are going to have a little heat. Tazz says it’s the Holidays and they should let bygones be bygones. Cole says speaking of the holidays; he knew Snow was on the WWF float. We are taken to clips of the Holiday parade in NYC. Ivory, Snow, Bob Holly, and a cast member from TE2 were on the float. Tazz asks how miserable Bob Holly was wearing a Santa hat? Al laughs and says he wanted it off the second he put it on. There are a few chuckles from all. Snow says he had a lot of fun on the float. Cole asks Snow about TEII. Snow says the Tough Enough II’s casting special airs on Feb 28th. Al says the show is going great, better than he could have expected. Snow tells Tazz that the gang is a lot bigger and a lot different than the first cast. Tazz said he heard that there was much less babying. Snow says that the cast is less friendly and huggy as the first cast. They are actually a little more intense about what they want to accomplish. Snow ends the interview by welcoming everyone to join in on the upcoming TE shows. He wants everyone to find out what it’s like to be a star in the WWF.
