10 Shocking On Air Wrestling Burials

2. Scott Steiner Lets Loose On Ric Flair And WCW

At one time in his career, Scott Steiner was an incredible athlete, tearing it up on a nightly basis with his brother Rick as The Steiner Brothers. Popular across the globe, the Steiners were undoubtedly one of the greatest tag-teams of the 90's. Towards the end of the decade, Scott would change his appearance entirely, blowing up with muscles and cutting his trademark long, black hair. Now dyed blonde and with a new aesthetic, Steiner slowly moved up the card, becoming a headliner as the new millennium dawned. It seemed like Scott could do anything he liked, and never was that more true than on an episode of Nitro in February, 2000, when Steiner would shoot on Ric Flair and WCW live on air. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lC09wIT9Flo Ripping into Flair, Steiner stated that every time The Nature Boy appeared on screen, millions turned channels to watch Steve Austin on Raw, and closed by saying that WCW sucked. It was quite the tirade, but there was little in the way of punishment for Steiner, who was quite the loose cannon around this period.
