OVW executive Al Snow is catching serious heat after posting a joke tweet just hours after a referee suffered a frightening brain injury during an Ohio Valley Wrestling event. On March 13, 2026, Snow took to Twitter and shared a joke about a visit to Waffle House but the timing immediately rubbed many fans the wrong way given the terrifying incident that happened during OVWs March 12 Rise taping in Louisville. The tweet quickly circulated through the wrestling community, and fans wasted no time blasting Snow for what they felt was a tone-deaf post. One fan pointed out that the OVW executive hadnt publicly addressed the situation involving referee Dallas Edwards. Another fan questioned why Snow was joking around while the referee was still recovering from a serious medical emergency: A referee just had a seizure in the ring and you post about a fly at Waffle House. Others reacted even more harshly to the tweet: Thats so funny I almost had a seizure and died of neglect. Another user criticized both Snow and the promotion itself: Not coolyou and your mudshow need to be stripped of your business license. The backlash comes after a frightening moment during the March 12 OVW Rise taping when referee Dallas Edwards suffered a serious head injury during the main event. The situation unfolded when OVW Rush Champion Brendan Balling attempted a top-rope flying forearm aimed at Tony Evans. Evans moved and pulled Edwards into the path of the dive, causing the referee to take the full impact and crash onto the mat. Edwards immediately appeared to lose consciousness, forcing the broadcast to stop as medical personnel rushed in. OVW later confirmed that Edwards suffered a brain injury but is now alert and showing signs of improvement while doctors continue to monitor his condition. While the wrestling community continues to send support to Edwards, Snows tweet has now become its own controversy with many fans questioning why the OVW executive chose humor instead of addressing the serious situation.
