In a move that has left both wrestling and baseball fans stunned, Scott Steiner, the legendary wrestler known as “Big Poppa Pump,” recently delivered a wild “Steiner Math” promo ahead of World Series Game 5 between the Los Angeles Dodgers and the Toronto Blue Jays. This unexpected foray into sports analysis showcased Steiner’s signature blend of humor, intensity, and unorthodox logic, leaving many wondering what inspired this unique blend of sports and entertainment.
The Origins of “Steiner Math”
For those unfamiliar with Scott Steiner’s wrestling career, his “Steiner Math” promos are a hallmark of his eccentric and entertaining style. These promos involve Steiner using bizarre mathematical logic to predict outcomes or explain situations, often with hilarious results. This style was born during his time in World Championship Wrestling (WCW), where he developed his “Big Poppa Pump” persona as a way to stand out among other wrestling stars like Scott Hall and Kevin Nash[1].
According to Steiner, his unique promo style was a deliberate attempt to differentiate himself and push the boundaries of what was acceptable on television. “A lot of people could sense that I was pi*sed off, because I was,” Steiner once explained, highlighting the frustration and strategy behind his performances[1].
The World Series Promo
On October 29, 2025, Steiner took to Twitter to apply his “Steiner Math” to the World Series, giving the Dodgers a significant edge over the Blue Jays. He started by assigning the Dodgers a 75% chance of winning due to their strong lineup, bullpen, and substantial payroll. Then, he added a 15% bonus for home-field advantage, concluding that the Dodgers had a 90% chance of victory[2].
Steiner didn’t hold back when it came to the Blue Jays, referring to them as “Mexico North” and criticizing their perceived weaknesses. This kind of trash talk is reminiscent of his wrestling days, where he would often use his promos to psyche out opponents and entertain the crowd.
Backstage Reaction
According to a source close to Steiner, the idea to do a “Steiner Math” promo for the World Series came about spontaneously. “Scott was watching the series and just decided to have some fun with it. He loves the attention and the chance to bring a bit of wrestling flair to baseball,” the source revealed.
This move has generated significant buzz, with many fans appreciating the unexpected crossover between wrestling and baseball. “It’s not every day you see a wrestling legend weighing in on the World Series, but when it’s Scott Steiner, you know it’s going to be entertaining,” said a WWE insider.
Impact on Wrestling and Baseball Fans
Steiner’s foray into sports analysis has brought together two distinct fan bases in a way that few could have anticipated. Wrestling fans are enjoying the nostalgic value of seeing Steiner back in the spotlight, while baseball fans are appreciating the humor and unpredictability he brings to the table.
“Scott Steiner’s ‘Steiner Math’ is a breath of fresh air in the sports world,” noted a fan who attended a recent Dodgers game. “It’s great to see someone not taking themselves too seriously and just having fun with it.”
