Zitat:Scott Steiner:”It all depends. I think everybody has heard why I was suspended, because I did an interview on Ric Flair, and I didn't say anything that wasn't true, but since this company is run by a bunch of old men, his friends, they tried to give me the heaviest fine in the history of wrestling. Of course, that didn't hold up in a court of law cause it's a bunch of bull****. It just shows you that this company is run by the good ol' boy redneck from Charlotte, North Carolina. Everything I said was true. It all makes our company look more bush league that it already does. Nobody f*ckin watches our show anymore because it sucks so bad. I can't even watch it. So for me to go out there and say that Ric Flair is 50 years old and still "the man"... people turn the channel to the WWF, it was true. They draw a 1.9 rating on Monday and a 1.8 rating on Wednesday. I don't give a **** if my friends are drawing a 1.9 or 1.8, the writing is on the wall. I'm smarter to say that just because you're my friend, I'm going to put you on TV. I mean, the guy looks like **** , man. Everything I said about him - he has more loose skin than a shar-pei puppy - it's f*ckin' true, man. Look at him. It's embarrassing. He's embarrassing himself, and he's embarrassing WCW. I mean, we're trying to market towards young people so kids buy the toys, etc., then people see a 50 year old man on TV, all they're going to do is change the channel and go watch The Rock, DX, or watch something that's cool. What the f*ck, you think a 50 year old man is cool? I don't care how many times he says "whooo." **** , they only drew 1200 people in Charlotte, North Carolina for a Nitro. I mean that's embarrassing. Thank God I wasn't involved in that, thank God I was sitting at home, pickin up my paycheck still. They can kiss my ass. Let them try to fine me again. They can't f*cking fine me.”

Interviewer:”If you were to make changes in WCW, if you were in charge and not Ric Flair, what would they be?”
Scott Steiner:”I'd get rid of all the old guys, and push the talent that has waited to get the push. The things they are doing, it's back in the 1980s. It's just bad, man. Flair doesn't even deserve to be on the show. You've got to get rid of all the old guys. Like what Vince did, they started pushing guys. Nobody knew who The Rock was 2 years ago. He made The Rock. Now The Rock just did Saturday Night Live. You've got to start with the young talent, talent people can relate to. Who are we trying to relate to if we've got a 50 year old man out there? Are we trying to relate, so a 50 year people and above will go out and buy a f*cking little toy? That ain't gonna happen. It's a f*cking joke.”

Interview:”Would you go as far to say that Hulkamania is dead?”
Scott Steiner:”Hulkamania is dead.”

Interviewer:”Does Hulk Hogan know that?”
Scott Steiner: (lacht) “Does Flair know he's dead? No. You tell me, who in the history of life, has ever beaten Father Time. Nobody that I know of. F*ck, you've got to deal with reality. And we're not dealing in reality. It's obvious. We just **** the people off so bad, that's why the ratings are bad. You can't bull**** the people and expect them to tune in and watch something that's dead, stale. It's bad. I can't even watch the show.”

Interviewer:”Do you see the tag team reformation of the Steiner Brothers?”
Scott Steiner:”******* No. We've proved everything that we have to prove. We won the titles in WCW, the WWF, Japan, we've beaten everybody that there was to beat when we were together. Who are we gonna beat now? The Mamalukes? Who the F*ck are the Mamalukes? How fast do you think we could beat those guys?”
