"Trying to referee a George Steele match is like being trapped in a steel cage with a rabid St. Bernard"- legendary referee Al Vass.

George "The Animal" Steele was born William James Meyers in Madison Heights, MI in 1937. Before he became a wrestler, he was a teacher. Steele was trained by Detroit promoter and former two-time Wolverine Wrestling Michigan Junior Heavyweight Champion Bert Ruby, who also helped train Mighty Igor and the Sheik. He began his career in Detroit in the 1960's. At first, he wore a mask and wrestled as the Student as the first wrestler ever managed by Gary Hart. As the Student, he battled Dick Garza/Mighty Igor Vodik, The Great Mephisto, and "Leaping" Larry Chene, among others. He later dropped the mask. The name Steele originated from the fact that he was headed to the Pittsburgh territory, since Pittsburgh is nicknamed the Steel City. The name Jim Steele was suggested but he didn't like it so he became George. It was the fans who came up with the name the Animal. From the beginning, he was known as a wildman who could not be controlled. He would often use foreign objects in the ring. He had a brutal feud with the legendary Detroit madman the Sheik. It was in Detroit that he won his only title, the Detroit version of the NWA World Tag Team Title. Steele and Frankie Laine beat John Bonelllo and Randy Scott for the belts on May 3, 1980, and held them until Bonelllo and Scott reclaimed them on May 24, 1980.

Here are two pictures of Steele as the Student.

Steele coached high school football at Madison Heights High School in Detroit during the school year and would wrestle during the summer. In 2006, he was inducted, under his real name William Myers, into the Michigan High School Football Coaches Association Hall of Fame. This makes him a two-sport Hall of Famer, since he was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 1995.

Steele is more well known for his heel run in WWE, then called the WWWF, in the late 1960s and 1970s. He feuded with "The Living Legend" Bruno Sammartino over the WWE World Heavyweight Title. Steele usually lost by disqualification due to his wild antics. He also became known for his punishing Flying Hammerlock finisher. In the late 1960s, Steele teamed often with Gorilla Monsoon and Killer Kowalski against Bruno and various tag team partners. Steele first main evented at Madison Square Garden on May 20, 1968 in a time-limit draw against Sammartino. In an interesting twist, Steele defeated Bruno by DQ on July 20, 1968 at the Pittsburgh Civic Arena. Along with Bruno, Steele had several matches with Victor Rivera, Tony Altimore, Antonio Pugliese, John L. Sullivan (Johnny Valiant) and even Kowalski. Steele later feuded in the 1970s with Monsoon following Monsoon's face turn. Steele also feuded with Pedro Morales, Chief Jay Strongbow, Tony Garea, Bob Backlund, "Mr. USA" Tony Atlas, "Polish Power" Ivan Putski and other top faces of the era. There is a 1973 match between Steele and Morales for the title on YouTube Steele also competed in the Pittsburgh region of the National Wrestling Federation territory, which was owned by Bruno Sammartino and was affiliated with WWE. While there, Steele teamed with Dr. Bill Miller and also with Baron Mikel Scicluna. In his forum, Steele said that his favorite non-Bruno Pittsburgh opponents were Battman (Tony Marino), Johnny DeFazio, Dr. Bill Miller and Dominic DeNucci. I once asked Steele on his forum who his least favorite opponents were. He suggested Mexican legend Mil Mascaras and "anyone who did not know how to work." (This seems to be a recurring theme, as everyone from Blassie to Mick Foley to Chris Jericho has written about having bad experiences with Mascaras.) While Steele was never known for scientific wrestling, he did defeat Bill White at an All-Star Wrestling TV taping in Hamburg, PA, in June 1979 with a suplex at 5:23. After the match, White was put on a stretcher but Steele knocked him off of it and later bit the turnbuckle pad. On The History of WWE, this is listed as Steele's only WWWF match that year. Steele also had a short four-month run in St. Louis. Interestingly, Steele also did a three-week cameo run in Georgia as a face allied with "The American Dream" Dusty Rhodes in 1979, predating his big face turn in WWE. Steele also wrestled in Japan and Australia. Steele was known as an articulate, intelligent and brutal heel.

Here's a picture of Steele fighting Bruno Sammartino.

Steele has had many managers over the years. As a heel, he was managed at different times by the late great "Classy" Freddie Blassie, Mr. Fuji, the late, great Grand Wizard (Ernie Roth, who, as Abdullah Farouk, managed Steele's old nemesis the Sheik), and "Luscious" Johnny Valiant. In Blassie's excellent autobiography Listen, You Pencil-Neck Geeks, Blassie said that he admired Steele because Steele had "everything I didn't: Education." Steele's time with Fuji in 1984 saw him get some countout wins against WWE World Heavyweight Champion Hulk Hogan after Fuji threw salt in Hogan's eyes. Steele spent some time in 1985 teaming with then-WWE World Tag Team Champions Nikolai Volkoff and The Iron Sheik against legendary manager Captain Lou Albano's team the U.S. Express, Barry Windham and Mike Rotundo. The U.S. Express and Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat defeated Steele, Sheik and Volkoff on the May 11, 1985 Saturday Night's Main Event at the Nassau Coliseum in Long Island, NY. Sheik and Volkoff abandoned Steele after the match and Albano embraced Steele, turning him face. As a result of the face turn, Steele's character changed from brutal and violent to goofy. He would often give only one or two-word answers. Steele became very popular in the 1980's, thanks to his green tongue, which came from eating Clorets mints, and habit of eating turnbuckle stuffing. Steele even teamed with former hated enemy Bruno Sammartino in a victory over Volkoff and the Iron Sheik at a house show in Rochester, NY on July 25, 1985. Steele also had a brief run as the masked Animal Machine, a member of Albano's notorious masked tag team the Machines. The others were Giant Machine (the late, great Andre the Giant), Big Machine (Robert "Blackjack Mulligan" Windham), Super Machine (Bill "Masked Superstar"/"Demolition Ax" Eadie), Piper Machine ("Rowdy" Roddy Piper), Hulk Machine (Hulk Hogan) and Crusher Machine (the late, great Reggie "The Crusher" Lisowski). (As a side note, Eadie also went from teaching and coaching to pro wrestling.) The Machines (Big/Super/Animal, subbing for Albano) d. Big John Studd, King Kong Bundy and manager Bobby "The Brain" Heenan at the Oakland Coliseum, now the ORACLE Arena & McAfee Coliseum, on September 10, 1986. Studd, Bundy and Heenan d. the Machines at the Arco Arena in Sacramento, CA on September 23, 1986. Steele also teamed with the Junkyard Dog, Hulk Hogan, and even Hillbilly Cousin Luke (Gene Lewis, aka the Monk, El Mongol, Kharma and Molokai, real name Gene Petit) against the Iron Sheik, Nikolai Volkoff, "Adorable" Adrian Adonis and other heels of the day. For a few years, Steele teamed heavily with JYD. At the beginning of 1986, Steele became involved in a feud with the newly arrived heel Randy "Macho Man" Savage. Steele became enamored with Savage's manager, Elizabeth. Although this did not necessarily help his win-loss record, which really doesn't matter in pro wrestling anyway, it did endear him to the crowds.

"It's a little like King Kong and Jessica Lange"-Vince McMahon, WWE Saturday Night's Main Event, January 4, 1986 (taped from the University of South Florida Sundome, Tampa, FL, December 19, 1985. I was there.)

Steele competed on six Saturday Night's Main Event specials. He won one match against evil referee "Dangerous" Danny Davis by DQ and lost the other five matches, usually to Randy Savage.

Steele also had a couple of matches with Kamala the Ugandan Giant in late 1986. Kamala defeated Steele in 3:16 with a top rope splash on the December 2, 1986 episode of Prime Time Wrestling. Kamala's manager the Wizard (King Curtis Iaukea, aka the Chairman of the Board and the Master of the Dungeon of Doom in WCW, which originally included Kamala) hit Steele with his horn, setting up Kamala hitting his regular big splash in the ring. Kamala tried for another splash before the Wizard and Kim Chee (Steve "Brooklyn Brawler" Lombardi under a mask) restrained Kamala. Steele was taken away on a stretcher. On his message board, Steele explained that this was done to set up the Hulk Hogan-Kamala feud that followed. Kamala also beat Steele several times in 1987 on the house show circuit by disqualification. At the July 20, 1987 house show at the then-Hershey Park Arena (now the GIANT Center) in Hershey, PA, there was a tag team tournament where the winners would go on to face the WWE World Tag Team Champions the Hart Foundation (Bret "The Hitman" Hart and Jim "The Anvil" Neidhart, w/manager "The Mouth of the South" Jimmy Hart). Rick Martel and Steele d. Kamala and Sika when Steele pinned Sika after using a foreign object at the 7-minute mark. They actually did this at a few house shows, with Steele and Martel beating Kamala and Sika and losing to Luscious Johnny Valiant's New Dream Team, Greg "The Hammer" Valentine and "Canada's Strongest Man" Dino Bravo. Steele also spent much of 1987 feuding with evil referee "Dangerous" Danny Davis and doing jobs for the newly arrived One Man Gang and "The Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase. At a house show in Landover, MD, on September 26, 1987, the Gang beat Steele in under a minute. The next night, in Cleveland, Steele lost to the Gang again and was stretchered out. As Steele got older, he was used for squashing enhancement talent guys with the flying hammerlock but inevitably lost to the higher-ranked talent. Steele's last match during his run saw him defeat Larry Stevens with the Flying Hammerlock in 1:01 on the September 11, 1988 episode of Wrestling Challenge.

Although Steele never beat Randy Savage for the WWE Intercontinental Title, he was able to play a part in Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat winning the belt at Wrestlemania III at the Pontiac Silverdome in Pontiac, MI, March 29, 1987. Steele seconded Steamboat for the classic match. Near the end of the match, Savage was about to dive off the top with the ring bell onto Steamboat, which was the injury that launched the feud in the first place. Steele tripped Savage, sending him crashing to the mat. Savage tried to lift Steamboat for a bodyslam, but Steamboat turned it into a cradle for the pin and the IC title.

Here's a pic of Steele and Steamboat celebrating the win.

Steele competed on two WWE PPVs. WWE Intercontinental Heavyweight Champion Randy "Macho Man" Savage d. Steele at WMII. Steele was a participant in the battle royal at WMIV, but never actually entered the ring, although he did eliminate Jim "The Anvil" Neidhart. Bad News Brown won the battle royal.

Steele retired from active competition around 1989 and worked as a talent scout for WWE. The real motivation for Steele getting off the road was that he had come down with Crohn's Disease, an inflammatory bowel condition. I emailed Steele about his work as a talent scout and he gave me a list of wrestlers he worked with in that capacity. He said he helped the Nasty Boys (Jerry Saggs and Brian Knobbs), fellow Michiganders the Steiner Brothers (Rick and Scott) and Prince Albert (Matt "A-Train"/"Giant Bernard" Bloom) get started. He said he helped develop HHH, the Rock, "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, and Mick Foley. Originally, WWE was going to give Matt Bloom a "George 'The Animal' Steele Jr." gimmick because of his bald head and hairy back, but thankfully this did not happen. (What they did give him wasn't great either, but that's another story for another website.) It should be noted that HHH and Matt Bloom were both trained by Steele's old tag partner Killer Kowalski, and that Bloom, like Steele, went from teaching to wrestling. In the book The Pro Wrestling Hall of Fame: The Tag Teams, Steele says about the Nasty Boys, "They used to wake me up every time we went to Allentown [Pennsylvania] to do TV. They'd knock on my door- 'I wanna be a wrestler.' I said, 'Get out, you fat pukes. Everybody wants to be a wrestler and you guys aren't it.'" Eventually, Steele gave them information about Brad Rheingans' AWA-affiliated training camp. In the Steiners' profile, it says that Steele directed Rick Steiner to AWA promoter and WWE Hall of Famer Verne Gagne and Rheingans for training.

Here's a pic of Steele as Tor Johnson and Lisa Marie as Vampira recreating a scene from Plan 9 from Outer Space in Ed Wood.

According to the Internet Movie Database trivia section about Ed Wood, Steele had to submit two audition tapes to get the role of the late Tor Johnson. He worked with a dialog coach for three weeks to recreate Tor's Swedish accent. Steele used special heavy shoes to recreate Tor's lumbering walk. Steele also appeared in the Hulk Hogan movie Mr. Nanny as himself, the 1997 movie Blowfish, Florida City as "Tortuga Jack," and in South of Heaven playing a character called The Man.

Steele was inducted into The WWE Hall of Fame in on June 24, 1995 at the Marriott in Philadelphia, PA. Legendary WWE Women's Champion The Fabulous Moolah, WWE's first Triple Crown winner (World, Intercontinental and World Tag Team Champion) Pedro Morales, former Tag Team Champion "Polish Power" Ivan Putski, the late great Antonino Rocca, the Grand Wizard and "The Big Cat" Ernie Ladd were also inducted that night. Actor Bill Murray, Steele's co-star in Ed Wood, introduced the highlights video and Steele's wife Pat inducted Steele.

Steele has made some unusual appearances at WWE shows over the years. Steele seconded Bret "The Hitman" Hart at a Madison Square Garden benefit show for the handicapped and underprivileged on October 6, 1995 for Bret's match against Dr. Isaac Yankem DDS (Glen "Kane" Jacobs). Steele seconded Jake "The Snake" Roberts and Yokozuna in their winning effort against Owen Hart and the British Bulldog at MSG on March 17, 1996. Steele was handcuffed to Owen and Bulldog's manager James E. Cornette. Steele seconded Vader at a November 14, 1997, house show at the Civic Arena (now the Mellon Arena) in Pittsburgh, PA, in a losing effort against HHH, w/Chyna. Animal kissed Chyna, who was disgusted, but the crowd roared. Post-match, Animal ate a turnbuckle. At an MSG show on November 15, 1997, Steele seconded Dude Love (Mick Foley) in a successful effort against Jim "The Anvil" Neidhart, in what would be one of Neidhart's last-ever WWE appearances before jumping to WCW and the independents. In late 1997, TAKA Michinoku was feuding with "Too Sexy" Brian Christopher and Jerry "The King" Lawler over the WWF Light Heavyweight Title. On the December 29, 1997 episode of RAW, Steele made a special guest appearance as TAKA's tag team partner against Christopher and Lawler at the Nassau Coliseum in Long Island, NY. Unfortunately, Christopher and Lawler won by DQ. On the December 21, 1998 episode of Heat, taped at the Tacoma Dome in Tacoma, WA, Steele returned as a member of the Oddities, joining forces with Kurrgan, Golga (the late, great John "Earthquake"/"Avalanche"/"Shark" Tenta under a mask), the Giant Silva and Luna Vachon. At the time, the announcers referred to Steele as "the original Oddity." Steele defeated Headbanger Mosh on the January 3, 1999 episode of Sunday Night Heat. The Oddities feuded with the Disciples of Apocalypse (8-Ball and Skull, better known as Ron and Don Harris) and Too Much ("Too Sexy" Brian Christopher and Scott "Too Hot" Taylor, later known as Too Cool, Grandmaster Sexay and Scotty 2 Hotty, until Sexay was fired for drug possession.) That the Oddities were thrown into this feud made little sense, since they had been feuding with the Headbangers when Steele returned. The Oddities lost all of these matches and WWE dropped the team. Steele's last televised match as an Oddity was on the February 16, 1999 episode of Heat, at the UTC Arena (now the UTC McKenzie Arena) in Chattanooga, TN. DOA and Too Much defeated the Oddities in an 8-man tag team match. Steele's last match as a single saw him lose to Droz on the January 25, 1999 Raw at the America West Arena, now the US Airways Center, in Phoenix, AZ.

Here's a picture of Steele with the Oddities.

Steele has been influential in an unusual way over the last few years. On the June 18, 1988 episode of WWF Superstars, he introduced a doll he named "Mine", which he carried with him to the ring. "Mine" could be seen as the precursor to Al Snow's Head, Chavo Guerrero Jr.'s wooden horse Pepe, Mankind's Mr. Socko and Perry Saturn's Moppy.

Here are two pictures of Steele with "Mine."

Here are two more pictures of Steele with "Mine."

Steele continues to compete in independents and fight for better treatment of wrestling's veterans. His last PPV appearance was the disastrous Heroes of Wrestling PPV from 1999, but let's not get into that.

Steele has appeared in the Pro Wrestling Illustrated Top 500 twice. In 1998, Steele was ranked 301, in between Super Nova (Mike "Simon Dean" Bucci) and Frank "The Tank" Parker. In 2000, Steele was ranked 389, in between the Persian Prince and Shawn Christopher.

MAJOR UPDATE!

On the January 10, 2000 episode of WCW Monday Nitro, Commissioner Terry Funk and the Old Age Outlaws, "The Enforcer" Arn Anderson, "Mr. Wonderful" Paul Orndorff and "The Living Legend" Larry Zbyszko, said they were going to bring back some old friends to beat NWO member and then-WCW United States Heavyweight Champion Jeff Jarrett. The first match, a "bunkhouse brawl," had Jarrett versus George "The Animal" Steele. Steele hit Jarrett with weapons, but Jarrett clocked the legend with a guitar. Arn Anderson ran in and spinebustered Jarrett. Special referee "The Crippler" Chris Benoit dragged Steele over and put him on top of Jarrett for the pin!

GEORGE STEELE WINS! GEORGE STEELE WINS! GEORGE STEELE WINS!

Here is a picture from that match.

Steele's appearance turned out to have been a one-time-only event. Kevin Nash defeated Funk for the "commissionership" at WCW/NWO Souled Out 2000 on January 16, 2000. The "Commissioner" position was later filled by "Above Average" Mike Sanders, Ernest "The Cat" Miller and Lance Storm before WCW's demise in March 2001.

Another Update

George "The Animal" Steele defeated "Illustrious" Johnnie Stewart for the "presidency" of AWA Superstars on February 29, 2000 at their "Shakedown: Never Surrender" card. You can find out more about the promotion here.

Another Update

George "The Animal" Steele is one of the major figures involved in the establishment of the Pro Wrestling Hall of Fame. More information can be found here.

On page 73 of the August 6, 2001, issue of Sports Illustrated, there is an article about then-St.Louis Cardinals pitcher Steve Kline, who last played for the San Francisco Giants and later signed a Minor League deal with the Philadelphia Phillies on April 10 2008, only to be released on June 11. In the article, titled "Animal on the Mound," Kline explains that his athletic inspiration was George "The Animal" Steele. Kline discusses Steele's heel days, saying "I want to be the guy that fans throw drinks and popcorn at...To be booed and hated, that's the ultimate." Cardinals manager and longtime baseball great Tony La Russa described Kline as being focused more on "competition" than on "stats and money and attention."

Steele made one appearance for the Insane Clown Posse's Juggalo Championship Wrestling promotion at a show in Cleveland, OH. The Insane Clown Posse wrote and performed the Oddities' theme song, "Oddities," which can be found on the CD WWF The Music Volume 3. He can be seen in the music video for Twiztid's "I Don't Care", from their album Cryptic Collection 2, on JCW Vol. 2. I asked Steele about it in the forum on his website and he basically disassociated himself from it. Steele also appears in the ICP music video "Real Underground Baby" from their album The Wraith: Hell's Pit, which is an easter egg on the Psychopathic: The Videos DVD.


MAJOR UPDATE!!!!!!!


I was on the original Old School Hodge Podge section of the Kayfabe Memories board on ezboard, and I saw that one of the names of recent visitors to the board was GeorgeSteele. I checked and it was "The Animal" himself. I sent him an email telling him how much of a fan I was of him and about the site. Here's the great part: HE WROTE BACK!! He said that his site has a link to this site. I consider this an honor.

Some time back, Wrestlecrap.com inducted the WWF's Wrestlemania VCR Game from the mid-1980s. Among the images were one of Steele fighting Rick Gantner. Gantner was enhancement talent at the time. He later became known as Killer of The Texas Hangmen in the AWA, with Mike "Psycho" Moran, who later became Mean Mike of Disorderly Conduct in WCW with Gantner's replacement, Tough Tom (Tom Beninghaus, who took the Killer role as well.) Since then, Gantner has found success in Tennesse and the Midwest as Bull Pain.

George "The Animal" Steele was included in WWE's special magazine The Greatest, about their picks for the 50 Greatest WWE Superstars off all time. The feature says that Steele's name inspires "terror, on one hand, and sympathy on the other."

Some time back, Mr. Jon-Tastic of The South Park Wrestling Federation updated his site and included a SP version of Steele. The full-sized version can be found in the "Hall of Fame" section.

Steele is among the PWHF's Class of 2005, along with legendary AWA [Indiana/Ohio] World Women's Champion and World Women's Tag Team Champion Penny Banner, former 1-time AWA World Heavyweight Champion and 3-time WWA (Los Angeles) World Heavyweight Champion Dick "The Destroyer"/"Dr. X" Beyer, Houston promoter Paul Boesch, two-time NWA World Heavyweight Champion Jack Brisco, Orville Brown, the five-time AWA World Tag Team Champions and 6-time WWA (Indianapolis) World Tag Team Champions the Crusher and Dick the Bruiser, midget wrestler Fuzzy Cupid, NWA World Heavyweight Champion Dory Funk Jr. and MWA (Ohio) World Heavyweight Champion John Pesek.

WWE has released a Championship Edition DVD of WrestleMania III. It is a two-disc set with a Steele-Savage match from Saturday Night's Main Event included in the extras. I will be writing a review of the Savage-Steamboat match and the Steele-Savage Saturday Night's Main Event match that is included as a DVD extra.

On the April 27, 2007 episode of WWE Friday Night Smackdown, during the Kane/Boogeyman vs. William Regal/Dave Taylor opening tag team match, commentator John "Bradshaw" Layfield said, "The Boogeyman makes George 'The Animal' Steele look normal."

Steele refused to sign a WWE Legends contract because he objects to the current product.

SURPRISE NEWS!

Steele was one of the "groomsmen" for the "Black Machismo" Jay Lethal-So Cal Val "wedding" ceremony at the TNA Slammiversary PPV, June 8, 2008 at the Desoto Civic Center in Southhaven, MS. The other "groomsmen" were American Idol contestant Ace Young, Jake "The Snake" Roberts, Kamala, "The Birdman" Koko B. Ware with Frankie Jr. and Lethal's tag-team partner "The Guru" Sonjay Dutt. The backstory for Lethal's "Black Machismo" name is that he did a great Randy Savage impression backstage and was turned into a Savage clone, complete with the raspy voice, colorful outfit and Flying Elbow finisher. So Cal Val even wears Elizabeth-style gloves. Dutt turned heel on Lethal (as I had expected) and beat him down with a piece of the wedding set. The legends beat up Dutt. Jake threw his snake on top of Dutt, and Steele ate the turnbuckles. The segment bombed, with the crowd sitting on their hands the whole time.
