WWE Hall of Famer Scott Steiner recently spoke with SHAK Wrestling about several topics, including an interesting moment when he turned down a proposal to fight his brother, Rick Steiner—also a WWE Hall of Famer—during a Royal Rumble match when both were competing.
Scott Steiner said, “I mean, I have heard that, especially with Bruce Prichard had said something like that on his podcast that I think about making me a world champion, but there was a thing where, in the Royal Rumble, they wanted us to go which against each other. At the time, one of the reasons why I got into wrestling was to wrestle with my brother, prove that we’re the best brothers, and wrestle the best tag teams in the world. So, I had no interest whatsoever to be a World Champion. The timing wasn’t right.”
