Match # 152: Booker T vs. Scott Steiner (WCW and US Title) (Nitro 3/26/01) The last chance at a great match on the set. I remember it fondly, on the phone with MFP (My Friend Paul) as I was living in Philly, we watched the final Nitro on the phone together still not believing what [...]
Match # 148: Booker T. vs. Scott Steiner vs. Mike Awesome (Nitro 10/30/00) A three way with the principles from our last match and the man who was on commentary, Booker T. I’ll bite on this, it could be decent.
Match # 147: Scott Steiner vs. Mike Awesome (Nitro 10/23/00) This starts out on two odd notes. First, they are commenting on the death of Yokozuna. Then Steiner comes down with a tiger. This is supposed to look cool, but it looks horrible, because the Tiger obviously doesn’t want to be there, looks annoyed, and [...]
Match # 144: Jeff Jarrett and Booker T vs. Scott Steiner and Sting (Nitro 10/2/00) An odd pairing of faces and heels, with the Jarrett/Booker team fighting against each other in a single later in the night. Seems Russo-rific to me. One question: Will anyone sell on the Steiner/Sting team given the other team is [...]
Match # 140: Scott Steiner vs. Goldberg (Nitro 7/18/00) Talk about having to lower my standards for this disk of wrestling. Steiner was the walking wounded at this point, and was more gimmick than wrestler as he gutted out a main event push here. TNA and the last year of WCW have A LOT in [...]
Match # 132: Hollywood Hogan/Sting/Goldberg vs. Kevin Nash/Sid/Scott Steiner (Nitro 8/9/99) Nash, Sid, and Steiner is the oddest team I’ve seen in some time. Why did Sid have a job, why did Nash bother to show up, and isn’t that the wrong Steiner for 1999 WCW? The faces all get separate entrances because they’re bigger [...]
Match # 94: Scott Steiner vs. Ray Traylor (Nitro 3/16/98) This is the Big Poppa Pump Steiner heel, version 1.0 as it’s very early in the run. He’s NOW for life apparently, because at one point weren’t they all? I know I was – for life that is. This is the always underrated Ray Traylor, [...]
Match # 36: Scott Steiner vs. The Giant (Nitro 6/17/96) Steiner is taped up at the ribs from a Harlem Heat attack, so that should factor in. The Giant was pretty bad ass in 1996, and he was the champ at this point too. The Giant is the WCW Champ too. If Steiner is motivated [...]
Match # 32: Scott Steiner vs. Sting (Nitro 5/27/96) This match has the distinction of taking place on the night Scott Hall walked out on Nitro and started what became the NOW angle. It’s mentioned in passing at the beginning. Here we have two pure WCW created talents going at it, and I’m expecting Scott [...]
Match # 122: Robert Fuller & Jimmy Golden vs. Jed Grundy & Scott Steiner (2/18/89) This is a CWA tag title match from the studio show. Dave Brown and Lance Russell on commentary. Grundy is just a fat hillbilly in overalls who plays babyface big man. The heels make it easy for him to look [...]
