      He had to do that crap because of dumb executives that couldn’t run a pizza parlor and thought oh well I can run a professional wrestling organization. Yeah right, they disrespected Ric and put WCW out of business. Another thing that hurt wrestling back then was the territories went away and they started hiring Bodybuilders like Scott that could do amateur wrestling, but you put those big guys like Scott in the ring with Ric and 20 minutes later the big guy needed an oxygen tank to keep going. Ric use to wrestle 9 one hour matches a week and sometimes he would do that for a month straight and the arenas were sold out. Then Ric partied all night and had to run Space Mountain for several hours so all the young girls went home happy. Ric had a good physique when he was young, but he didn’t take PED’s everyday for a solid decade or two like those big guys did. Ric is still relevant today and his daughter is a huge success and neither of them are flipping burgers or working at Walmart.

Ric wasn’t a cartoon character like The Million Dollar Man and he was worth way more than a million dollars. I use to live near Ric and he really had all those fancy cars and he had the biggest house on the biggest side of town.

    Whether you believe what Scott Steiner said in that promo was true or not, it was way out of order of him and utterly unprofessional.
    I first saw the Steiner Brothers wrestle in WCW in the late 80s and have not seen a more technically sound tag team than them. They are certainly in the conversation for greatest tag team of all time. And this I was a fan of Scott Steiner pre 1998, after that he just seemed out of control and lost to me.
    This promo was yet another embarrassing step on the road in the destruction of WCW. The greatest wrestlers cutting promos don't need to cuss and just get angry. They capture the audience, they tell a story they have self control. And they also didn't get personal and disrespectful to legends, even heals like Jake the Snake didn't need to do that.
    Also you NEVER name the competition, absolute no-no! Vince and the WWF boys probably sat back and laughed their heads off. Ridiculous promo, and it was clear he embarrassed himself and WCW. Shameful.

    Just like Mike Tyson told Ali he would get revenge on Larry Holmes for Ali, Vince did the same for Flair. Thank you Vince .As a fan, Scott never came on my TV again. I turned away until he was through. As Kevin said Scott was not even working with Flair at the time.

      Professional wrestling is not amateur wrestling, it’s not the UFC, and it’s not bodybuilding. Ric was the greatest professional wrestler to ever wrestle and that means his work ethic, his skills in the ring, and most importantly his interview skills and his entertainment ability in the business. Ric is not an amateur wrestler, but Brock Lesnar is, so get Scott to jump on him and see what happens. Ric is not a bodybuilder and didn’t eat PED’s like they were candy, but Lex Luger, Sid Vicious, Rick Rude, and Brock had better physiques than Scott. Brock had UFC training and Haku had mix martial arts training and Scott didn’t jump on either of them. Finally, Ric was not a street fighter, but Dick Slater was and he would have destroyed Scott with one punch. Ric was perfect in the ring as a professional wrestler and he did basically the same match because it was perfect and it worked. Scott was a bully and was jealous of Ric’s success and Ric had nothing to do with Scott not being a great singles wrestler. You think Ric’s body looks bad, have you seen Scott’s chest, his body looks bad as well. Ric is the GOAT.
