I heard a story years ago about when Scotty first got going in the business. There was an angle where he was supposed to go to ringside for a taping with a black eye, having been jumped outside the ring. The crew had makeup ready to go, but Scotty told Rick to hit him instead. Rick hammered him, and he earned a legit tough guy rep immediately. Also, I remember stories that if a wrestler botched a Steiner spot, notably the Frankensteiner, Scott and Rick would legit work him for a few minutes with potatoes to punish him for it. Fun guy to watch, to I'd give him a VERY wide berth.
