Scott Steiner's health not as bad as reported?

The health of TNA Main Event Mafia member Scott Steiner has become a topic of conversation with so many injuries recently occurring in TNA. Friends of Steiner say that statements about Steiner experiencing unbearable back pain are “false statements that tarnish his achievements” according to the PWTorch.com.

“Does he have aches and pains? Yes, however he does not drink alcohol or indulge in numbing amounts of painkillers like so many do to numb their pain,” said a close friend of Steiner’s.

For many individuals and fans outside of Steiner’s inner circle, it’s often difficult to see a separation in his character and actual personality outside of the ring, which may affect perceptions of Steiner.

“Scott is a person with a lot of integrity, people that don’t know him have total misconceptions of what he is all about,” said one friend. “As for his fans, he obviously always trys to stay in character because he likes to keep his personal and professional life separate.”

Steiner has been limited in the ring, like most TNA wrestlers on the number of in-ring TV appearances, but he remains committed to performing at a high level for TNA.

“He really enjoys working for TNA and will continue to give 100 percent,” said one friend.
