Buff I can see not planning his retirement well. But Steiner? Does he really need chump change to wrestle in front of 40 people or so?
It's hard to watch. And Buff still wearing the nWo crap. It's like the 45 year old that can't stop telling people about his glory days in high school.

Buff is and always will be annoying never liked him

LOL this is both sad and funny
Scott Steiner and Buff Bagwell still a tagteam in their 70s... :D
-
Steiner looked like he didn’t have much spring in his step when he stepped up on to the rope.
-
"The Wrestler" was more a documentary than a movie.
-
Steiner was making good money in wcw of course that was 25 years ago
Wrestlers have no pensions or insurance many have gone broke over the years
-
How shit it must really feel wrestling in the kinda venue they would have started out in before reaching the heights they did.
-
Maybe he just misses entertaining people :'(
-
He had a restaraunt that went under during Covid believe it was a franchise he had only had it a couple years
-
I believe it applies to the entire entertainment industry. The skills don’t transfer over to anything else.
With pro sports like football, when you’re done you’re done but pro wrestlers can work Indy shows and eke out a few bucks.

That pisses me off. I hope that the people responsible for ruining small business during Covid lockdowns pay dearly (somehow, some way)

I saw an interview on youtube last year where Steiner was talking about the WWE wanting him back recently to work a program with Roman but they would not agree to the money he asked. He said (his words) "it was a two year deal, maining 3 PPVs, and transitioning into a one year deal mentoring new talent, for a total of three years. They offered to send a Brinks truck to my house for a signing bonus but didn't want to pay anything else other than a flat yearly salary. No merch, no card placement bonus, nothing else. So I said no"
I just had to pause it. Looking around my house for whatever disembodied voice was just talking. Hearing nothing else, I rewound the video and listened to him say it again. I was like "dude wtf you smoking to think people will believe what you just said?" There is no way in hell they want him back. And no organization out there would be stupid enough to think he could mentor new talent. ::)

Steiner was good in wcw, i think he caused alot of problems backstage at times. I saw him live at monday nitro and he spat at the audience, guy didn't give a fuck.
Could he mentor talent, maybe, why not, did vince ask him back, i doubt it, but did he just make all that up?

He didn’t main event WWE pay per views when he was a main event guy. Does anyone think they were bringing in broken down Scott to headline a show, 20 years after triple H buried him at the Royal Rumble ? There was no offer.
These guys are always “working” an angle .
-
I'm sure it was all in his head. There is no way he would be brought back in that condition.
-
steiner would have to look like 2002 version of steiner no way they would bring him back. brock lesnar can still perform at a high level steiner wrestled for almost 35 years that is a lot of wear and tear on the body, but man for about 7 years he was jacked as shit. very good athlete as well in his day.

Life imitates art
-
They do it for the love and the passion, they don't need the money

-
I believe he owns a Shoney’s. I didn’t even know that they still exist ???
After further research, he owned one from 2016-2020

Brock is 15 years younger.
Ironically Steiner’s nephew, Rick’s son, is a rising star basically doing Scott’s act.

Actually I think he looked best at the end of WCW before it folded.

Funny, steiner has no muscle left, looks stocky but no debelopment whatsoever, not even those biceps.

Scott Steiner is berating Chris Jericho and calling him fat

Yea i know, that's what I'm saying, steiner can hardly talk.

can't he get a commentator gig or be one of those "manager's in the ring for some wrestler? he's got the mouth for it, that's for sure...

No. He doesn’t have the necessary experience or educational requirements for that type of job.

He always was a liar or just delusional. Twenty years ago he claimed in interviews that he never used steroids. ::)

He went the Flex Wheeler route by covering his arms with all those tats so you can not see the deformed muscles hanging there.
