During an interview with Chris Van Vliet, WWE Hall of Famer Scott Steiner commented on his famous promos and here are the highlights courtesy of ChrisVanVliet.com…

Math promo: “I just thought about it. I knew maybe an hour before I start thinking about it, they told me I had to do an interview. I come from a highly educated university, so it just made sense. All the numbers made sense. And actually, there’s a Harvard professor, I don’t know, because everything 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.”

“He’s Fat” promo: “Oh yeah, he’s fat, fat ass. I do cameos and, like a lot of times the guys will be like, ‘Can you please call my buddy a fat ass? He’s getting married and tell him you’re going to steal his wife.’ So the last one I did, he says, ‘Man, I’ve been working out. I think I’m in great shape, but I quit working out for a little bit. I need a pep talk. Can you call me a fat ass now?’ People still love that.”

Ric Flair shoot promo from WCW: “Well it was the bullsh*t that was going on. It was something I thought of and I did [have a live mic]. Yeah, they tried to fire me for that, J.J. Dillon. [How did you not get fired?] Because it was bullsh*t. nWo went out there and attacked anybody they wanted every night. So I was pretty much staying with the standard of what the nWo did and the stuff they were trying to say, it was so in touch with my character. But then I got a lawyer, so then they tried to suspend me, which they couldn’t suspend me either. So nothing happened.”
