15 Things We Learned From Scott Steiner: Live And Uncensored

2. Almost Causing A Riot In Switzerland

Former TNA star Nick 'Magnus' Aldis joined Steiner on stage for the 'TNA' and 'ask me anything' portions of the event. Aldis put over Steiner for being gracious with young, up-and-coming guys and being willing to do anything when other veterans were not. Steiner noted that he knew what his role in TNA was and was fine with it because he wanted to leave the company in better shape. The two men told a funny story about a match in Switzerland. Steiner was supposed to team with Booker T and Kurt Angle to take on Hernandez and Beer Money but a pre-match stunt caused it to be changed on the-the-fly. Steiner decided to wipe his backside with the Swiss flag, prompting the fans to pelt the ring with chairs and beer bottles. Booker, whose wife and manager Sharmell was at ringside, said 'f**k this' and left the match. Steiner went back to try and convince Booker to come back but the 5-time WCW Champion was having none of it. Steiner surveyed the Gorilla position and saw Magnus and Daivari standing there and, since Daivari wasn't wearing a shirt (but was wearing slacks) he was chosen to be the ringer. Not missing a beat, Daivari was thrown through the curtain and snapped straight into character and wrestled the match. Note to aspiring wrestlers: if you're in Switzerland, it's probably not the best idea to rip their flag up and use it as toilet paper.
