WWE News: Scott Steiner rips WWE, Triple H and Stephanie McMahon
Wrestling veteran Scott Steiner, who is known for his stints on WWE, TNA, and various other promotions, had some rather strong words for WWE and its management in a recent interview, and went so far as to slam the product – reports wrestlezone.com.
Steiner, who criticized WWE’s model, labelling it as the key cause of Rey Mysterio and CM Punk’s exits, is quoted as saying: “WWE offered me a legends deal. My lawyer looked at it, and it’s basically illegal. It’s not worth the paper that it’s written on. So f–k them. That’s why a lot of guys are leaving like Rey Mysterio and CM Punk. It’s a monopoly and the product suffers because of it. You have two dumbasses running it in Stephanie and her f**kin’ husband Triple H.”
Steiner didn’t stop his rant there, and also reserved criticism for WWE’s writing team, saying that they diminished the role of wrestlers.
The wrestler further elaborated, saying: "Oh f--k, without a doubt. Back in the day when Macho Man and guys did their own interviews and everything. Now it's a bunch of cookie cutters. Now you have 2-3 writers writing interviews for everyone. You have Brian Gewirtz, a little midget who probably never got any (expletive) in his life and he's trying to tell people how to be cool. Give me a f--king break”
Steiner, who currently wrestles on the independent circuit, is well known for getting into controversies, with this being one of many.
