"How many people became insane while studying mathematics? Zero. Insanity is a prerequisite."
A joke among Russian mathematics students.

"You know they say all men are created equal, but you look at me and you look at Samoa Joe and you can see that statement is NOT TRUE!

See, normally if you go one-on-one with another wrestler you got a fifty/fifty chance of winning. But I'm a genetic freak, and I'm not normal! So you got a 25% AT BEST at beat me!

Then you add Kurt Angle to the mix? Your chances of winning DRASTIC go down. See, the 3-Way at Sacrifice, you got a 33 and a third chance of winning. But I, I got a 66 and two-thirds chance of winning, 'cuz Kurt Angle KNOOOWS he can't beat me, and he's not even gonna try!

So Samoa Joe, you take your 33 and a third chance, minus my 25% chance, and you got an 8 and a third chance of winning at Sacrifice! But then you take my 75% chance of winnin', if we was to go one on one, and then add 66 2/3… percents, I got a 141 and two-thirds chance of winning at Sacrifice!

Señor Joe?! The numbers don't lie, and they spell disaster for you at Sacrifice!"
Scott Steiner and his unique way of hyping his then-impending three-way match for the TNA World Heavyweight Championship against Kurt Angle and champion Samoa Joe at Sacrifice 2008, TNA Impact!, May 1, 2008note 

"[And] If you don't believe me, let me get it through your thick, fat skull, with some simple math.

See, normally if you go one-on-one with another wrestler you got a fifty/fifty chance of winning. But I'm a genetic freak, and I'm not normal! So you got a 25% AT BEST to beat me! Then you add my boy Cole watching my back to the mix? Your chances of winning drastically go down. See, at our match at Grand Slam, you got a 33 and one-third chance chance of winning. But I got a 66 and two-thirds chance of winning, 'cause everyone at New York knows you can't beat me!

So Samoa Joe, you take your 33 and one-third chance minus my 25% chance, and you got an 8 and one-third chance of winning at Grand Slam! But then you take my 75% chance of winning, since we're wrestling in my home state of New York, and then you add 66 2/3 percent chance, I got a 141 and two-thirds percent chance of winning at Grand Slam!

See Joe?! The numbers don't lie, and they spell disaster for you in Arthur Ashe!"

MJF, paying homage to the abovementioned promo, and ironically towards Samoa Joe prior to his Grand Slam qualifier match with Roderick Strong, AEW Dynamite!, September 13, 2023.
