On the February 7, 2000, edition of World Championship Wrestling's (WCW) Monday Nitro, Scott Steiner decided he'd had just about enough of Ric Flair and that it was time to get a few things off his chest.

Even at the expense of his own employer.

Here's an excerpt:

"When you walked down that aisle last week, I know I wasn't alone, because the people at home, all they did was grab their remote, change the channel to the WWF and watch Stone Cold (Steve Austin), a person you and your old friends got fired from here because you're a jealous, old bastard. So Ric Flair, remember this, in this wrestling business, there's never been a bigger ass-kissing, butt-******* bastard in this business. But also in life, you're the biggest ass kissing, back-stabbing, butt-******* bastard and you belong where you're at, in WCW, because WCW sucks!"

Full video of his unscripted shoot, which earned him a two-week suspension (with pay -- lolz), right here:

Anyone think this was somehow, someway, an elaborate work?
