Rick Steiner on him and Scott going to WWF & Why they left

[@NateNizzle]

I hate interviewers that just ask questions and don't listen to the answer. Rick said that his brother attacked Bill Watts! Instead of the interviewer asking more about that and going into more detail he was onto the next question.

[@TheUltimateWriterNZ]

Right? This could've been 2 hours long if he had listened and interacted with Rick!

[@kentbarger5021]

@@TheUltimateWriterNZ probably was longer but just gave us what they was allowed to share with us

Scott steiner was way ahead of his time and the originator of "suplex city" and a unique talent.. Rick was the ultimate underdog and very much underrated.

[@JRock-xv3sk]

I named my dog after this man. The puppy faced Gremlin is my dogs name. Loved the Steiner Bros

[@hockeyfan1988]

One of the legit badasses in wrestling, seems to be unanimously liked.

[@lozenmczapor4771]

Even by the old school legends .

[@firestorbucket]

Rick and Scott used to literally beat the crap out of guys out back for fun. The only guy both of them shut up and left alone was Meng and both said he was the one guy they would never fuck with. Everyone else, they fucked with regularly but yeah, they would duct tape guys to the table and stick shit like pencils and car keys up their asses in the locker room.

[@ATCRyderX]

Rick is a pretty damn "well off" individual down south with Real Estate & other smart decisions. I love to see any of "the boys" make it out alive.

[@ronniewatkins6465]

The Steiner Brothers , in their prime, were one of the 5 best tag teams of all time. They should be in the WWE HOF, but between Scott's history of trash talking (of the McMahon family) and what Rick is saying here, it just may take a while before they make it in...

[@vampir070]

You're not gonna believe this... 😂

That was really cool to see him light up when talking about Wrestling the Harts.

[@gillies9]

As a former college wrestler if I had a time machine I would love to see the Steiners in their prime wrestle a collegiate match vs guys like Mike Rotunda, Bob Backlund & Kurt Angle.

[@SRPC21]

I’m surprised he wasn’t given another wwe run; He was actively wresting in wcw until the very end and was a big name. Scott obviously had his run too. I wish they asked him if he was asked to work there.

[@SRPC21]

@GRap TheGOAT I disagree, I recently rewatched the last 3 months of Nitro and wcw PPVs and he had great matches against DDP & Booker T (amongst others). Nash was “lazy” but he still drew and was anticipated by fans, he also knew when he returned to wwe he wouldn’t get away with taking a backseat. Frankly almost all wcw stars were “past their peak”, as was The Undertaker in 1999. That didn’t make them bad or mean they were finished (look at Hogan!)

[@SMP1993]

@@SRPC21 I mean, if you’re saying the character of the Undertaker in its original iteration was past its peak in 1999, then I can see that argument (and apparently WWE felt similarly considering they went with the American badass angle not soon after). If you’re saying Mark Calaway was past his peak as a wrestler in 99, I’d have to pretty strongly disagree. I don’t think Taker really peaked as a performer until like, 2011 or so. He was pretty steady as a top guy who could go with anyone and at the very least carry his load in main event caliber matches for about 20 years. The Undertaker’s last years in WWE were, to me at least, so bad that they did what should have been impossible; they left a tarnish (albeit an extremely small one) on his legacy, but I think we’re selling him short if we say he had already peaked by 1999.

[@paulearl8203]

He was injured to shit in 99 and breaking down. Could hardly work. Hence all the ministry stuff and the tags with big show before taking months off. Think he's alluding to that.

[@garyballard4657]

Grew up in the Tri-City area of MI...Saginaw near Bay City so naturally The Steiners are home town favorites so to speak. Been a fan of them since grade school & IMO are right at the top of greatest tag team of all time side by side with the Road Warriors. I mean who is better or as great as the Steiners & Warriors?

[@walterclark3198]

The Steiner brothers when I was a kid they could wrestle anybody and have a great match. They could work and the had these wrestling backgrounds. So you know these guys were the real deal in the ring. Go back and look at their matches in Wcw and wwf. Just incredible.

[@shane49734]

Arn Anderson says the same thing about he and Tully’s time in WWE.

[@MrSmitty1074]

@Alex Kanyima Arn and Tully are one of the greatest teams ever.

[@emanuelmartinez7267]

@The Ninth Heart dude your tripping balls. The Steiners are definitely up there but theres a reason why Arn and Tully are considered the gold standard for tag wrestling.

[@emanuelmartinez7267]

@The Ninth Heart oooooh so we're going by drawing power as to measure how good a tag team is at tag team wrestling? By that logic wouldn't the road warriors be number 1 since they drew everywhere they went being THE only tag team to have higher placement on the marquee then the "main eventer" and wouldn't that mean Hulk Holgan is the greatest wrestler ever since he draw the biggest numbers? I can guarantee you that your opinion is in the minority, most fans will agree that the Brain busters are the far more superior team in terms of actual tag team WRESTLING. Theres a reason why the Revival is called the revival and its not cause of the steiners

[@Tony-fq5bn]

Sid also has the same reasons for leaving WWF after his first run

[@Tony-fq5bn]

@The Ninth Heart Sids mic skills are severely underrated, he flubbed sometimes but his intensity was unmatched, and he actually did cut some GREAT promos(patyicularly, pre-last WcW run) like the one when he returned as HBK's bodyguard. He was good enough for him to do all that shit you mentioned, and both the WWF, and WcW both took him back and made him the champ.

[@Jesse_Jessie_James]

They didn't leave WWF they was fired.

[@kingjaekob]

Scott was Supposed to Win The WWF World Title at Wrestlemania IX, but Vince Decided to go different direction! If you look at Scott Steiner Matches he had with Ludvig Vorga, and the promo's for the Match, looks like Scott was gonna get serious singles Push! I think Scott would have been excellent WWF Champion!
