20 Most Overdue WWE Hall Of Fame Inductions

9. The Steiner Brothers

In WCW, tag teams didn't get any more impressive than Rick and Scott, the Steiner Brothers. You could maybe make an argument for the Road Warriors, but by the time the old NWA had become WCW, Hawk and Animal would only embarrass themselves competing with the amateur standouts from the University of Michigan. Aside from their stellar career in WCW, the Steiners also forayed into the WWF and Japan, wrecking everything in their path. Eventually, Scott would become a major singles star in WCW and a punchline in WWE and TNA, but none of that diminishes the legacy of dominance the Steiners left behind.

Why They're Not In: The famously volatile Scott doesn't like, uh, anyone, an arrangement that memorably led to an altercation with Hulk Hogan's wife and a WWE-enforced ban on the Big Bad Booty Daddy. Plus, that HOF mic is live. Let Scotty near that and watch that PG image - and all those hard-won sponsorships - slip away.
