    Chris Champion got off pretty easy, just eats a rough clothesline and gets put away, this could have been much worse. Like the time the acolytes beat up public enemy or perry saturn beat up that one dude.

    A Chris Champion knew when he kicked Steiner. He tought he could get away with this like he did with Jobbers. But Rick is no Jobber. So when Steiner just shruged it off, then cleaned his clock made Chris looked like a fool.

      If you watch the way both Garvin and Kevin Sullivan react, you can kinda tell they're wondering if some further shit might go down. I think Sullivan splits quickly to kind of signal to Steiner: "Let's get back to the dressing room".....he doesn't even go into the ring to celebrate the win with Steiner. Lol.

      he was a 4 time All American NCAA wrestler for Christ's sake, very few people on earth can claim the level of toughness of Dr Death, if you took him just after college and put him in a top MMA gym today he'd probably be heavyweight champion of the world or damn close and if he crawled out of his grave as a revenant he'd have more than enough left in him to have you eating your Christmas Dinner through a straw

      Being an all American wrestler is nothing special in mma terms.
      I've seen guys with less than a years training absolutely schooling all American level wrestlers in fight gyms.
      Dr Death definitely wasn't no fake tough guy but to put him into a real shootfighting scenario against proper fighters and he would have been torn apart.

      Dr. Death beat Dan Severn, Lou Banach and Jeff Blatnick in the NCAA's, two of them went onto be Olympic Gold Medalists and the other UFC World Heavyweight Champion. Williams in the 80's was one of the baddest pro wrestlers out there whether you like it or not. Black Bart has spoken about seeing Williams stretch Rick Steiner on several occasions as Rick always challenged him but could never beat him.
