Uncertain grounds
Speaking very generally on this but when Steiner was at his peak as an athlete and a worker it seemed like he could barely talk.

Then later in his career when he got the great persona and gimmick and did all the must-see promos, in the ring it seemed like he could barely move.

I have been a fan of Steiner, I ain't gonna lie. Funk is not for everybody and I do get it when people say they don't see what the big deal is. The charisma isn't necessarily obvious, he doesn't look like a polished star in any way, he doesn't look like a real athlete, he looks like a redneck, etc.

But the longevity of that career, giving 120% in every match, making every opponent look like a star and doing the unpredictable crazy act so well that you're convinced he's legit fukked up in real life. That dude probably loved the business too much for his own good.

Even if I wasn't a fan of Terry Funk I'd probably vote for him just based on respect. But yeah I'm a big fan, I found him entertaining as hell.

Good post, as usual.

I voted for steiner probably unfairly because i kinda blend his best talents together even though he was never at one point that blend.

If he steiner was the worker he used to be when he was big poppa pump then he wouldve been astronomical

Scott Steiner was ass at actual wrestling

I remember when he debuted on Raw and instantly got a title shot at HHH

Guess who won :mjlol:

As a kid in the 80s i only watched WWF and Funk was a mid card snorefest for me so my opinion of him isnt great...His promos during that time were flat and the most entertaining thing he ever did in the ring was throw himself over the top rope wildly...
