More Backstage Details on Scott Steiner’s Encounter with Hogan’s Wife, Which Lead to Steiner Being Banned From the Hall of Fame

April 3, 2015

As noted, Scott Steiner was banned from attending this year’s WWE Hall of Fame ceremony after an alleged incident involving Hulk Hogan’s wife.

According to PWInsider.com, Steiner and Hogan’s wife Jennifer were on the same fight to San Jose, and while they were at the baggage claim, Steiner approached Hogan’s wife and told her the next time he saw Hogan there were going to be problems.

Hogan’s wife reportedly didn’t know who Steiner was, so she was very shaken up by the encounter. Hulk Hogan then reportedly told WWE officials to ban Steiner from attending the Hall of Fame ceremony, after which officials made the call to inform security that Steiner would not be allowed into the building.

Hogan was reportedly telling people over WrestleMania weekend that he had no idea why Steiner would approach his wife and didn’t know that there were issues between the two.

Although this is just speculation, Steiner does have a lawsuit pending with TNA, which stemmed from negative comments Steiner made about Hogan, his daughter, Eric Bischoff, and other TNA personnel.
