Scott Steiner is one of the most outspoken figures in professional wrestling. As both a tag team general, along with his brother Rick, or as 'Big Poppa Pump', with a physique that even Rob Liefeld would find inhuman.

Steiner is known for his angry and rambling promos, which are often amusing, but when he spoke to Dave Penzer about the HOF, his rant was pure venom.

Scott fired off:-

“First off, where in the f*ck is the Hall Of Fame? How can you be in the Hall Of Fame if it doesn’t exist? It exists in Vince’s mind. Do I give a f*ck if I rent space in Vince’s mind? F*ck no, I don’t give a f*ck what he thinks. So, I don’t care if I’m in the Hall Of Fame because it’s a f*cking joke because it don’t exist."

In a later interview with Andy Malnoske, Steiner elaborated that he gets “so sick of talking about it because it is so stupid. People take it so seriously. Some guys really just mark out for themselves and think of how great it is. It is freaking fake”.
