New & improved tribute to the innovator of the Frankensteiner, Steiner Screwdriver, Standing Moonsault Slam, Tilt A Whirl Slam, Standing Double Underhook Powerbomb, Pump Handle Slam, T-Bone Suplex, Top Rope Overhead Belly To Back Suplex, Super Samoan Drop & various tag team manoeuvres such as the Electric Chair Top Rope DDT & Electric Chair Top Rope Diving Bulldog. During his tenure the Indianapolis-based World Wrestling Association in 1987, Scott Steiner also innovated the 450 splash which at the time was known as the “1 ½ Superfly”. Before Scott Steiner went pro he was a noted collegiate wrestler for the University of Michigan where he became a three-time BIG 10 runner-up & as a senior in 1986 he became an NCAA Division I All American placing sixth in the United States. Prior to becoming a genetic freak, Scott revolutionized & dominated tag team wrestling alongside his brother Rick. Scott innovated the sport & became a darling of the "workrate geeks" who marvelled at his great moves & matches. Injuries not steroids effected Scott's athletic prowess. When the wear & tear of wrestling for 12 years began to catch up, Scott in order to prolong his career SUCCESSFULLY reinvented himself by changing his look, persona & his ring style. Big Poppa Pump was born. Now boasting one of the most incredible larger than life physiques in the history of the business, Scott became one of the most believable, controversial, entertaining, imposing & memorable characters of his era & went on to attain TV, U.S. & World Championship success in singles competition. Scott was everything the "workrate geeks" wanted him to be & then he became everything they despise. He went from Chris Benoit to Hulk Hogan. In the rest of the world, changing to prolong your career & wealth is applauded. In the IWC...in Scott Steiner's case...it's often ignorantly ridiculed.
