Where I am, we don't get CW and won't get My Network TV so I haven't seen Smackdown in almost a year. Anyway, curiosity got me and I'm watching this weeks (last night's) Smackdown! and they are making Kozlov out to be a new age Ivan Drago. He doesn't strike me as anything special but the hype is decent. Is this guy a russian Lesnar or will it be another Snitsky push?

I don't know what to make of him yet tbh but i wish they would give him music, even "tradional" cliched Russian themed music would do.

I guess only time can tell, but I can see him getting a better push than Snitsky.

I've heard both good and bad things, but it's tough to tell. He's got good intensity, doesn't screw anything up during his squashes, and has a pretty interesting set of moves. We'll have to wait and see what he's like in real matches before we can judge.

He'll amount to nothing.

Well he is a Russian MMA fighter so he can wrestle, But it's up to the WWE to decide what to do with him. I personally hope they push him to at least a few title match's, And they don't make him a Russian Snitsky.

I really think he could be a big star if WWE pushed him right

He's horrendous in the ring. I'm really hoping that he'll get released soon.

Yep that's him. I think he's unique and hope he's around for awhile.

As somebody who's watched basically every match of his, I'd have to say I like him. I'm not a fan but that's mostly because he doesn't have much of an identity.
I think he's got an interesting set of moves, great intensity, a good look, and he's been booked pretty decently.
However, he needs to make a jump to better competition and he needs to do it NOW. I don't want to see more squahses again Moore, Yang, & Noble..

I almost feel as if you're naturally at a disadvantage with the IWC if you have an impressive physique or are a big man. From what I've seen of Kozlov he's pretty legit, but like most have said we've only seen squash matches so much is still desired to be seen.

If they use him right, he could make it far, I think.

They'll wait until Taker gets back and they'll feud. Taker will end up destroying him and that will be the last of him.
