Whoa . . . He will NEVER live that down.  WEAK!  LOL.  How pathetic is that?  Hahaha!  What's next, pinned after a slap? :P

Why else would Flair choose him as his opponent for this week's TV main event?  It's gonna be an easy walk-over win on the Saturday TV show for Flair, since Arn and Tully have softened up Steiner.  Plus Flair has bigger things to tend to like the man from the Double Cross Ranch in Amarillo.
