During a recent appearance on the “Insight With Chris Van Vliet” podcast, Scott Steiner commented on his infamous “Steiner Math” promo in TNA Wrestling, his son signing with WWE, and more.
You may try some highlights from the podcast below:
On Steiner Math: “No [I didn’t write it out], I just thought of it. I knew perhaps an hour before. I began eager about it, they told me I needed to do an interview. I come from a highly educated university, so it just made sense. All of the numbers made sense. And truly there’s a Harvard professor, I don’t know, because every thing you read on Twitter is 100% true, right? So he checked the numbers said, yeah, they added up. So I’ll take that Twitter feed. The numbers make sense, they add up. Nevertheless it don’t matter, it made sense in my mind.”
On if he thought it could be so memorable: “I had no idea. I’m appreciative of the fans that also remember it. So yeah, it turned out to be that individuals still speak about it to at the present time.”
On his son signing with WWE: “That got here about because they saw it on ESPN, he had two games. One he outran them for 85 yards and scored a touchdown and ESPN picked it up. In fact they’d a side-by-side of me and him, and yeah it took off. Then that’s once they begin to get interested.”
On if each of his sons may very well be in WWE sooner or later: “I’m unsure. They each loved it once they were kids and after I wrestled. All sudden when I ended they really didn’t listen to it an excessive amount of. So I don’t know. Well, the thing that got here about with Brock, because Brock, Brandon and Bronson [Bron Breakker], and there’s a pair other guys get in. Sometimes Brandon’s basketball friends or Bronson’s other guys at wrestling, they’ll play video games. So with Brock talking to Bronson on a regular basis, and naturally he’s on a trajectory that’s unbelievable. So he talks to Bronson, then one thing led to a different and he got the bug. He went out and he desired to do it. There’s not a greater time to be in wrestling, because there’s two [promotions]. WWE is doing phenomenal. Then you definately got AEW, so it’s at all times good to have competition. So I never really wanted them to go onto wrestling, but I allow them to do what they need to do.”
On Bron Breakker not using the Steiner name: “Well they never shied away from that because he introduced us on the Hall of Fame. So for whatever reason they used Bron Breakker, but they know he’s a Steiner, so I feel Brock would probably use a Steiner name. I’m unsure if it could be Brock, however it could be Steiner.”
On his body transformation: “Well, I didn’t get an entire lot greater. I just got cut. I mean, I got ripped. Once I first got in wrestling being big was what it was all about, like The Road Warriors. I remember Hawk was doing a wrestling match against Lex Luger. I remember the road he said, cuts are for youths, which is what everybody thought, being as big as you may. But after I changed into Big Poppa Pump I had back problems too. So I needed to get lighter, and I just got leaned out. Yeah I got more cut.”

“We’re incredibly excited to be partnering with Nattie to share her story,” said BenBella editor-in-chief Leah Wilson. “This book is a testament not only to who Nattie is as a wrestler, but in addition who she is as an individual: funny, relatable, hardworking, and someone who deeply loves the wrestling business.”

On this deeply personal memoir, Neidhart takes readers behind the tragedies and triumphs of not only one in all skilled wrestling’s most famous family dynasties, but in addition skilled wrestling’s most successful company, offering unprecedented insight into a few of wrestling’s biggest names and moments.
As the primary female wrestler from the legendary Hart family, Nattie shares her tumultuous journey from watching matches in her grandfather Stu Hart’s backyard, to being the one woman in her family to wrestle, to becoming a WWE Superstar and champion in her own right.
Because the daughter of Jim “The Anvil” Neidhart, she openly discusses her father’s struggles with addiction and a brain injury, which caused continuous turmoil and financial struggle inside her family.
And as an up-and-coming talent during WWE’s Diva era, she details her path through wrestling’s developmental system, where she needed to not only prove herself as a wrestler, but in addition work out the way to meet WWE’s evolving standards for female talent over the course of several difficult and incredibly different eras.
Neidhart also reveals the complex dynamics between the Hart family and WWE, including the aftermath of the Montreal Screwjob, Owen Hart’s tragic death, and her husband Tyson Kidd’s near-fatal in-ring incident that retired him far too young.
“Over the course of virtually 20 years in WWE, I even have given many interviews,” Neidhart said, “but as a naturally private person, I’ve kept the more personal details of my very own story private, until now. I can’t wait until October so I can share my full story for the primary time.”
Neidhart’s memoir—available now for pre-order—will likely be released in hardcover, e-book, and audiobook this October.
