In the seven years since leaving the WWE, Gene Snitsky has not strayed away from the competitive instinct that enabled him to be a success. From a football career that nearly landed him in the NFL to a wrestling career with WWE that gave him national exposure, Snitsky remains a passionate individual.

 Currently, the 6'8, near 300 pound Snitsky wrestles every weekend on the independent circuit. While the glamour of sold out arena's with over 10,000 fans is a distant memory, Snitsky now appreciates the smaller crowds that allow him to interact with the fans.
