Scott Steiner was a law unto himself during WCW's final years. The bleach-blonde muscle man also knew he could get away with pretty much anything, which is presumably why he went into business for himself on the 7 February 2000 edition of Nitro. It was an unbelievable rant (no TNA maths though, so y'know, that's a half star knocked off).

'Big Poppa Pump' called Ric Flair a "jealous old bastard", and told fans to flip channels to watch the WWF and Steve Austin instead. Why? Well, "because WCW sucks". Deary me - that would've had Turner execs all chuffed, if they were even watching. They probably/definitely weren't.

Literally telling your viewers to change channels is certainly a choice.
