Scott Steiner recently returned to Impact Wrestling, and he’s set to team up with Josh Mathews to take on Jeremy Borash and Joseph Park at Slammiversary XV in just a few weeks.
Steiner has an interesting history with Impact, as he was at times a key player for the promotion during the TNA days before he left. The former WCW World Heavyweight Champion recently spoke to Ring Rust Radio, and he blamed a change in management for his original departure from the company.
“When I left nothing impressed me; that’s why I left. The change of management which was a problem because Dixie Carter is an idiot and then she brought in these other idiots like Hulk Hogan. I was just like damn; I got to get the hell out of here. I watched them from afar and their pockets kept getting run down and then thank God, someone else bought it, ran her out and now the right guy is back in charge being Jeff Jarrett. That’s basically who I started with before when Jeff started Impact Wrestling. I definitely wanted to come back and work for the organization again.”
Scott Steiner is a pretty well known name in the world of professional wrestling, but he’s not a WWE Hall of Famer. Steiner isn’t afraid to say negative things about WWE, and it doesn’t look likely that he’ll be inducted anytime soon, which is ok because he doesn’t seem to mind.
“I am already in a couple Hall of Fames like the Michigan Hall of Fame and the Dan Gable Professional Wrestling Hall of Fame so my accolades speak for themselves. Let’s just say I’m not losing any sleep over any Hall of Fame induction. The one Hall of Fame that I refuse to go in is the WWE Hall of Fame because do you know where it’s at? Where is it? Do you have an address? It’s a bunch of bulls—. If they called me up, I wouldn’t go because there’s no address; you can’t go see it, so, where is it? What do you think they do with that Ric Flair statue, the one he was jumping up and down over? Where do you think that statue is at right now? If you had to guess right now where do you think it’s at? I say it’s in Triple H’s bedroom. Let me ask you this, do you think they made a statue of Macho Man? If they made a statue of Macho Man where did you think it would be? It would be in Stephanie’s bedroom. It’s a freaking joke. If you can have a Hall of Fame, at least have an address. That’s the only Hall of Fame I laugh at. Come on man, give me a break.”
