Look who's sending congratulations.

But you can't readjust as you can in another piledriver as you're all bundled up, so a set up issue or slip during grips and you're screwed. Steen seems pretty safe using it sure.
Didn't Steen invent it? I've seen him credited with it.

As long as they don't make him use a proper burning hammer of Ganso bomb I'm fine with whatever finisher he gets.

Oh hell yeah. :win: He's gonna be great in WWE, his wrestling style surprisingly fits perfectly, all he has to do is clean his potty-mouth up a bit and he's a guaranteed star.

On an unrelated note, they really do need to get Adrian Neville off of NXT as soon as they can. With Devitt/Kenta/hopefully Steen/Kalisto/Gabriel/Zayn/etc all doing cool flippy shit on the developmental show, it'll be tough for him to continue to stand out on NXT. With Bryan gone and Rollins gone heel, now's the perfect time to bring them to Raw where there's nobody really like him on the main roster.

He never really gassed did he? He had a beer gut sure but that worked as the every man character.
He also never wrestled fast paced. Stunning Steve was amazing in ring. Stone Cold, not so much. It's been proven time and time again, you don't have to be an amazing in ring performer to be a successful wrestler. That being said I think Steen can hang with pretty much anyone. Just thought that tweet was an old case of the pot and kettle.

I think WWE see's the kind of money that can role in signing guys like Steen and keeping the name they've been using since entering the world of wrestling and getting popular with that name.

Marking.

Legit wonder about his move set though. Hope he gets special dispensation like Taker and Kane did with Tombstones to still Package Piledrive ppl.
Vince McMahon is not going to make allowances for Kevin Steen. Remember, Vince McMahon has probably never heard of Kevin Steen. To Vince, Steen is nobody.

He isn't going to get any special treatment. To WWE, he hasn't done anything and is nobody. His career starts when he shows up to work at WWE.

On another note, Jim Ross mentioned something about Steen needing to get his body in shape if he wants to be successful.

Ross doesn't work for WWE anymore, and sounds like he isn't very popular there. However, he spent many years making many talent related decisions there and has a lot of insight into what's expected there.

They did get over Rotundo's physique though. It took several years and lots of instructing him to get "in shape" though.

True about VKM, but is he really running the show or is it more HHH and co. now? As things seem to be changing for the better slowly.

It's good to see the Empire cooling down on the Randy Orton-looking cats and signing professional wrestlers instead.
It's an old chapter reinvented. The Lesnar/Lashley project didn't work, let's go back to signing Terry Funk-types who love professional wrestling.

Scott's so quiet and unassuming. Every interview he does is the portrait of absolute humility and grace.
I wonder how got a hold of the one interview, in the entire universe, where Scott Steiner insults another human being
