9 Insane Real-Life Scott Steiner Stories

3. Messing With The Midgets

The Steiners were some of the most notorious ribbers in the business during their late 80s to mid-90s heyday. There are many a tale of Rick and Scott tying up guys backstage, kicking their feet together as they're walking down the hallway or, according to Kevin Nash, putting a pencil up their ass. Scott's wrath was not just limited to his fellow burly co-workers, however. He would also supposedly mess about with the midget wrestlers, too. According to Bret Hart's autobiography, Steiner would pick on one particular midget backstage at WWF shows. He'd ask the pint-sized grappler to take his hat off so he could hit him and, when the midget obliged, Steiner would wallop him ten times. The pro-wrestling locker rooms of the 1980s and 90s were completely mental, right? Where else would you see a guy as jacked as Steiner smacking a midget on the head 'for fun'?
