As we previously reported here on eWn, WWE Hall of Famers The Steiner Brothers (Rick and Scott Steiner) were in attendance at Saturday night’s SummerSlam 2024 pay-per-view event.
Bron Breakker, who defeated Sami Zayn to capture the WWE Intercontinental Championship, is the son of Rick and the nephew of Scott.
Some of you may recall that Rick Steiner made some transphobic comments towards Gisele Shaw during the WrestleCon 2023 convention in Los Angeles during WrestleMania 39 Weekend. The incident led to Steiner being removed from the convention.
Fightful Select is reporting that several WWE staff members noted that Rick Steiner previously fell out of the good graces with the company following his comments. With that being said, Steiner is said to have admitted his wrongdoing and insists that an incident of that nature will not happen again. It’s also said that Steiner offered an apology to Shaw, but it’s unknown if the two have spoken privately.
The Steiner Brothers were inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame Class of 2022.
