January 25, 201312 yr Author comment_5530469 Scott Steiner cutting a promo shows just how *not* ready he was for a singles push, especially when contrasted with Ric Flair.
February 16, 201312 yr comment_5535590 Pretty bad promo from Scott. Flair is still talking about CNN and the Omni. When did they decide to scrap that for Gainesville, GA and what caused that decision? Flair is all riled up and cutting crazy Flair promos in 1991 and they are all pretty by the numbers for him with no real standouts so far.

The dreaded security concerns. No, that's not a jab at the WWF. I'm not sure if CNN Center was actually thought to be a target or if someone realized that in the midst of a war it needed to be utilized for other things. Steiner cuts an awful, blithering, marble-mouthed promo. Flair is Flair and is awesome.
March 8, 201312 yr comment_5538161 Scott Steiner points his finger the whole time during his promo. Nobody has ever got up from the Frankensteiner. Flair does his own finger pointing. He praises Ted Turner and Jane Fonda’s marriage. Okay. Ted must have fed him that line.
June 17, 201312 yr comment_5548187 Was Steiner EVER that good on the mic, even 10 years later? And I am a HUGE fan of the Big Poppa Pump 2000-2001 WCW Title run of destruction...but on the mic, not so much...unless he's calling someone names or meshing words together that dont make sense...
April 6, 201510 yr comment_5663667 Never mind if Scotty was as good as or better than Flair on the mic. The real question is, was he even as good as Rick, who was supposed to be punch drunk/mentally slow? I have my doubts about that. Personally, I'd have pushed Rick before Scotty for a singles career, if only because Rick was a former TV champ. As for Flair, that was a nice line about the Turner/Fonda marriage being the greatest romance of all time. Too bad it didn't last, like Flair's own marriages. Memo to Dusty: Please don't let wrestlers quote Shakespeare who probably think of something to drink (Shakes' Beer) when they hear the name, as evidence by Scotty's total butcher job on The Bard here. Michigan education or not, neither Steiner brother will be qualifying for Mensa any time soon.
