10 Biggest "Jannettys" In Wrestling History
6. Rick Steiner - The Steiner Brothers
The Steiner Brothers were a no-nonsense tag team that won multiple championships in both WWF and WCW. They were also on the front lines of the war with the nWo, trading multiple tag team championships with Scott Hall and Kevin Nash. That was until Scott decided, “if you can’t beat them, join them.”
Enter the transformation of Scott Steiner into Big Poppa Pump. Say whatever you want about how crazy Scott Steiner was, or is, the gimmick change did wonders for his standing in the professional wrestling world, and ended up getting him more gigs than he probably deserved. Scott ended up as a mutli-time WCW Heavyweight Champion.
Rick, on the other hand, held a second banana role from the minute Scott turned on him. They reunited briefly as heels, and Rick even got a Big Poppa Pump-like makeover as well, but his singles career post-split didn’t hold a candle to his brother’s.
