5 Things you didn't know about George 'The Animal' Steele

#3. His ‘brute’ interview style actually happened by accident

Annoyed, George ‘The Animal' Steele would adopt the persona of a brute, cutting wrestling promos with a smattering of ‘duhhhhs’ and ‘uhhhhhss’. Much to his shock, this is exactly what McMahon was looking for, and it became the signature style that Steele would deliver his promos in, for the rest of his career.
