    Scott Hall (Razor Ramon) is dying

    Just heard after surgery he developed a clot and suffered a stroke.

    On life support.

    Doesn't look good.

    Met him once at the Atlantic City Hilton hotel/casino

    We were in the bathroom washing our hands,

    I said, "Scott ?... LOVE your schtick --- "

    He seemed genuinely surprised by my comment ..

    Virgil was there too but didn't say anything.

    Scott said, thanks buddy

    Heal in the ring, nice guy in real life

    Pull through Scott

    Heard about it on the radio yesterday. Prayers for the bad guy. Being a Georgia native, I have nothing but love for all those guys who made WCW big in the 90’s, and Scott Hall certainly was right up there with Sting, Nash, and Hogan for playing a huge role in their rise.

        Never cared for DDP the wrestler, but DDP the man you can’t help but love. A truly good guy.

                  Same. I have a lot of respect for what DDP is doing or trying to do nowadays. I've suggested to a few people that they take a look at DDP yoga.

                  Sad to lose Hall. RIP

                    Back in the day I had the Scott Hall AWA figure

                    Wish I would have kept it --- for a souvenir of his pre Razor Ramon/WWF days

                      I've met him at a meet and greet when summerslam was in town. I've met kevin nash twice but missed when they were together here for a con in 2016.

                        Hey yo, I grew up watching Scott Hall. I'm glad he turned his life around the last few years and beat his addictions. I think people forget Hall was a jacked as hell in the AWA and early 90's wcw. Maybe drinking and partying made him slim down during his main run. I think the thing to remember is if drugs/alcohol can cut short a freakish athlete and bodybuilder like Hall than for a regular joe it definitely shortens their life, appearance, quality of life,etc.

                        Hall was never world heavyweight champion because of mostly timing. But if he was motivated and had his demons in check in 1999, 2000 WCW he could've definitely held the title and had main event matches with Sid, Booker T, DDP, etc.

                          For sure,

                          Glad that SUPER-DRUNK (drugged-out) video of him at a local wrestling venue wasn't his epitaph.

                          The guy was way better then that

                            Hard to say. It’s possible. I mean, they put the strap on David Arquette and put Stevie Ray in charge of the NWO, so it’s hard to say Hall wouldn’t have been given the belt at some point, but I will say at WCW’s peak it is unlikely it would have happened, no matter what shape Hall was in.

                            Between Hogan, Sting, and Goldberg, there wasn’t a lot of room at the top. I think Hall was perfect in his role as one half of the Outsiders.

                            None of this is a knock on Hall. Professional wrestling was absolutely stacked with talent in the mid to late 90’s. It was unreal just how good the product was then.

                              Yeah Hall wasn't on Hart or Michael level in match quality. And it wouldn't have help Diesel to have him beat during his run as Champ. Hogan was the leader of the NWO so from 1996-98 that wouldn't have made sense. Alot of main event guys got injured by 1999 so there was some opportunity there. But Hall made alot of money off of the Nwo shirts so he did really well regardless.
