9 Insane Real-Life Scott Steiner Stories
He only cares about his freaks and his peaks. And terrifying everyone in sight. Including midgets.
They don't make 'em like Scott Steiner anymore, do they? In a landscape dominated by colourful, off-the-wall characters, the 'Genetic Freak' stood out amongst the most colourful and off-the-wall. A legit badass with a hair-trigger temper and a penchant for doing whatever the hell he wanted, Steiner was one of the most feared men in the business, especially during the final few years of WCW. Steiner, revamped as 'Big Poppa Pump', was given a loose cannon character to portray. He would interrupt broadcasts, beat people up for next-to-nothing and 'shoot' on anyone he damn well pleased. Trouble was, most of this genuinely wasn't scripted, and was simply Scott Steiner just being Scott Steiner. The man was a menace but, damn, was he entertaining. It's said that the best, most successful wrestling characters are the ones that closely mimic the person whose portraying them, and it's fair to say that that is definitely the case with Steiner. He was genuinely dangerous both in the ring and backstage, and there are plenty stories to back that assertion up. The following are nine of the most insane Scott Steiner stories out there.
