The most successful of tag teams must be completely in synch and possess an ability to almost read each otherās thoughts. Arguable no one can find thatĀ level of connection better than family. EnterĀ celebrated University of Michigan alumni Rick Steiner and Scott Steiner, sibling competitors who donnedĀ on the headgear (and/or mullet) and introducedĀ anĀ innovativeĀ in-ring style that helped them fight their way to the top of the mountain.
The Steiner Brothers first joined forces in 1989 and grew to become the face of tag team excellence as one of sports-entertainmentās most celebrated tag teams. Together, Rick and ScottĀ lit up NWA Mid-Atlantic and NWA/WCWĀ where they used their impressive mix of amateur and professional wrestling toĀ captureĀ the WCW Tag Team Titles seven times and the United States Tag Team Titles once. Their success was not entirely limited to the Atlanta-based organization, however. During their brief time in WWE in the early ā90s, the pair quickly made history by appearing on the first episode of Monday Night Raw in 1993, battling The Headshrinkers on The Grandest Stage of Them All at WrestleMania IX andĀ winning the WWE Tag Team Championship twice. Following a short tenure with ECW in 1995, The SteinersĀ then returned to WCW in 1996 and their impact was undeniableĀ as they battledĀ elite opposition like Harlem Heat and The Outsiders for the WCW Tag Team Titles.
Donāt miss when The Steiners take their place in sports-entertainment history during the 2022 WWE Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony this Friday, streaming live exclusively on Peacock in the U.S. and WWE Network everywhere else.
