    THe Wrestler - Scott Hall's story

    This is on ESPN now. What a fall from grace. I knew he had gone down a bad road but never really knew how bad that was. This is very sad and evidence that if you don't have a moral center, the wrestling business will take you down hard. Hell, you can be evangellical and still have need for painkillers after a match. What a story.

    I just finished watching that entire biography, and I don't even like wrestling. That was horrible the way he threw his life away. Half of my life I have worked in a hospital and have seen addicts come in and leave; most of the time long time addicts stay long time addicts. However, in the cases I have witnessed the addicts that keep relapsing have little to look forward to in life from their point of view. In this guys case he has a beautiful family that his addiction has left in the wake. So much to live for and yet he still craves that arena.

      Scott Hall was 1 of my Favorite Wrestler's that Appeared Towards the End of the "Gimmic" 80 Characters. Razor Ramone and His Jerycurl Italian Toothpick sling'in Hairy Chest will always be something to remember , as well as his later appearances with the NWO .

      It's real Sad to say the least ...., Jake The Snake Roberts also had a fall from grace, .... and Road Warrior Hawk is Dead Because of his .

        im not suprised. back when he was in WCW they use to try and cover it. not much of a wrestling fan these days but i think in his prime he was one of the better ones. had some great matches with Micheals.

          Wow-- That was kinda hard to watch. SO many wrestlers at a relatively young age are jacked up. That industry just eats people alive--

              That ring entrance from 2011 was painful to watch, but at least the guy has some money left from his career (judging by his really nice home).

                  Man, Scott Hall was a stud..I remember watching him in the AWA and then his incredible run with the Wolf Pack and NWO in the WCW. I am really having a hard time watching this, seeing him in this condition. It's really mind-blowing..

                      Pretty sad sight. Stories like this make me shake my head everytime I hear some idiot talk about drugs being cool.

                              Very sad, I always liked him - especially when he went to WCW with Nash
