Posted February 23, 20205 yr comment_5911201 Steiner Brothers vs Fire & Ice - WCW Great American Bash 1996 I have been rewatching the Nitros from spring of 1996 and I got to see my first Ice Train match a couple weeks prior to this and really enjoyed him. Great power and good charisma. This is the Steiners' specialty: big, dumb meathead jock wrestling. I enjoyed their first Nitro match. I thought their second Nitro match was ok. This match was really fun at the beginning. Lots of throws, power and hard-hitting. The Rick Steiner-Scott Norton interactions were really good. Scotty played FIP because of a shoulder injury. Really good stuff throughout the heat segment. The highlight of the match was Norton hits a big Shoulderbreaker on the bad shoulder and immediately goes for the Fujiwara Amrbar. Rick Steiner comes into save and Norton does NOT let go. Steiner kicks and kicks and then finally STOMPS him and Norton lets go. It was awesome. Norton goes for another Shoulderbreaker but gets too close on Rick, who tags in. STEINERLINE! HOLY SHIT! THAT WAS AWESOME! The finish was a clusterfuck. It was all over the place. The Steiner Bulldog should have been the finish, but instead it was the worst Frankensteiner in history on Norton that was the finish. The body of the match was great power wrestling and makes this worth watching even if the finish was a shitshow. ***
