Their accolades, as a duo, span various companies. Not only are they former 2x WWF Tag Team Champions and 7x WCW Tag Team Champions, but they&#8217;ve held tag team gold in <strong>New Japan Pro-Wrestling<\/strong>, becoming 2x IWGP Tag Team Champions. During their time as a duo, they&#8217;ve implemented an impressive combination of technical wrestling techniques and powerhouse offense, becoming nothing short of dominant as they&#8217;ve moved from territory to territory.<\/p>\n<p>This isn&#8217;t to take away from the individual efforts of Scott or Rick Steiner, however. In the case of Rick, &#8220;The Dog-Faced Gremlin&#8221; is a former United States Heavyweight Champion and 3x WCW World Television Champion. His brother, &#8220;Big Poppa Pump,&#8221; has seen success as a former United States, Television, and WCW World Heavyweight Champion. Currently, the Steiner family is represented in WWE, as <strong>Bron Breakker<\/strong> has been one of the most prominent names on <strong><em>NXT 2.0<\/em><\/strong>, capturing the NXT Championship.<\/p>\n<p><em>Stay tuned to the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/\" target=\"_self\">Last Word on Pro Wrestling<\/a>\u00a0for more on this and other stories from around the world of wrestling, as they develop.
