During his recent interview with The Detroit News, WWE Hall Of Famer Scott Steiner discussed his past issues with WWE. Scott also his days as ‘Big Poppa Pump,' and so much more. Check out the highlights below.
On wrestling as a heel:
“I actually appreciated the boos more than I enjoyed the cheers. It was a lot more fun, and it just fit my personality then. It was a lot easier for me to piss people off.”
On his ‘Big Poppa Pump’ gimmick:
“I knew I had to go in a totally different direction. So I just totally flipped the switch. In amateur wrestling, you really didn’t talk too much trash. Wrestling is a humbling experience: if you get too big, you’ll get beat. So I had always had that mindset. But after awhile, once I saw everything in the business, the politics, I had a totally different mindset than when I broke in. I had a whole different attitude, it was more of a rage. And that’s what came out.”
On his past issues with WWE:
“You’ve gotta let it go, you can’t harbor all the bad feelings. You’ve gotta grow up.”
