Hot take alert: Scott Steiner is the greatest mic skills wrestler of all time

He’s good but not in same class as Ric Flair or The Rock.

not even top 20

Late-90s WCW was the GOAT, but I do love this Big Poppa Pump promo...

Boo. His only gimmick was the 29” biceps that he stole from Hogan and his 26” pythons.

My girlfriend in 1990 dumped me to be his arm piece and frick buddy. She was a 1st year Falcons cheerleader and he was a WWE star. I was a 21 year old college student and Chili’s waiter. I had no chance.

Steiner was always good for a laugh but I thought that Chris Jericho was the best in the modern era. Smart dude.

Sid Vicious was better

Because he only has half the brain that everyone else has

Steiner isn't within a mile of Flair, Rhodes, The Rock or Austin.

He was a great promo. He wasn't in the league of Savage, Rock, Stone Cold, and Flair though.

One thing that even took away from his mic work was the sheer amount of botches that he had. I mean hell I don't care if you are a fricking mat technician if you can talk but Jesus at least complete the moves that you go for.

I'll say this I believe if the Steiner's would have stayed in the WWF and did their single's runs there....Scott would have been right on top with Stone Cold, The Rock, and Undertaker during the attitude era. He waould have been a bigger star if he would have done that than what he actually became....but hindsight is 20/20 because at the time they left WWF to go back to WCW/NWA the WWF was struggling mightily and no one knew what was going to happen with the steroid trial.
