Would This Be Wrestling's Greatest Miracle?
 
http://s17.postimage.org/xsx46vpxr/B...Cc_AAl_Kem.jpg

If DDP can keep Jake on the right track, AND do the same for Scott Hall?

Most people seemed to be convinced Hall wouldn't even show up, including Kevin Nash, so this is big news in itself.

owenbrown 02-19-2013 08:06 AM

DDP should get the Nobel Prize is this happens

XL 02-19-2013 08:06 AM

Trouble is, for all of DDP's intentions, it's Hall (and Roberts) that have to want to do this and, as they've shown numerous times in the past, they haven't been able to.

I'm hopeful they can buck that trend though.

owenbrown 02-19-2013 08:10 AM

Jake looks like he's on the right track... Hall is gonna have a long road ahead of him

MoFo 02-19-2013 08:20 AM

WWE should hire DDP to run their Wellness shit.

itsmeJD 02-19-2013 08:50 AM

Fuck that image above makes me sad...

Spaff 02-19-2013 08:54 AM

WWE Wellness is run by doctors. I think they could bring him in as a consultant or try to incorporate his yoga into it, but he shouldn't be running it.

Skippord 02-19-2013 09:23 AM

would be kind of rad if this was all a huge set up for DDP to hit the Diamond Cutter(OUT OF NOWHERE) on Roberts and Hall

Bad News Gertner 02-19-2013 09:26 AM

I'm guessing Hall is in that condtion from listening to too many CM Punk promos

The Condor 02-19-2013 10:54 AM

Hall looks like he should be getting wheeled around various activities at the special Olympics. Going to be an uphill battle.

James Steele 02-19-2013 11:13 AM

My big concern is Hall bringing down Roberts. The challenge will be when they aren't living with DDP anymore and they are on their own again.

Arrogance 02-19-2013 12:27 PM

That's probably the best picture of Jake I've seen in like ten years at least.

CSL 02-19-2013 12:51 PM

outstanding, didn't think he'd show up

Keith 02-19-2013 01:11 PM

I think once Scott loses some weight, it'll be easier for him to walk around.

Jake looks great.

Heisenberg 02-19-2013 01:23 PM

Just 4 Men will help him out with the hair, and some baby oil and toothpicks.

Keith 02-19-2013 01:35 PM

Was this video posted on here? It's DDP and Jake calling Scott. I'll admit, my eyes got watery at one point, man.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7MIjTXHkEYg

Heisenberg 02-19-2013 01:37 PM

It was posted in 100,001 I believe and was privatized a few minutes later by the uploader.

ron the dial 02-19-2013 01:38 PM

scott sounds so bad :(

ron the dial 02-19-2013 01:38 PM

but jake sounds really good. really happy for him.

they are a combined age of like 170

ron the dial 02-19-2013 01:45 PM

yeah i don't think that ddp at 56 looks bad

Keith 02-19-2013 01:55 PM

DDP looks the same as he did back in '98. He's always looked "old".

Heisenberg 02-19-2013 01:57 PM

I believe in DDP

KyleEmmott 02-19-2013 03:29 PM

DDP is a great man.

Flash Funk 02-19-2013 09:11 PM

We should send a group message to Hall & Roberts. Let them know how many people are pulling for them.

Is that Al Snow in the back in the green shirt???

Theo Dious 02-20-2013 02:51 AM

And, yes, the two living poster boys for substance abuse in wrestling both getting clean... fuck, DDP should be nominated for sainthood if that happens and sticks. Greatest thing to happen to wrestling would be the Kliq getting into the HOF in 2014 with all 5 of them present.

Does Scott have any health problems besides alcoholism? I'll admit it, if Scott gets healthy again, loses the weight and gets his head straight, I would watch a Hall and Nash reunion match. They were suppose to have one in JCW in 2011 but Waltman filled in probibly for the best (Scott was in really bad shape) I would love to see the Outsiders together for one more match. Of course it's gonna be the Kevin Nash 6 and a Hall in his 50s but it would be a nostalgic thing to watch (a reunited Team 3D would be able to carry them through a match, they did before).

I know he has heart problems. I think he had some kind of surgery or something, and takes medication for a whole lot of things.

XL 02-20-2013 06:01 PM

No doubt all related to the booze. His kidneys/liver probably tapped out a while ago.

CSL 02-20-2013 06:05 PM

he's had a pacemaker for quite a while now

Corporate CockSnogger 02-20-2013 07:10 PM

Fuck a match at this point, I'd just love to see him coherent and ideally within the next couple of years a hall of fame spot.

I love seeing all the backstage photos from the past few years of any combination of Triple H, Michaels, Nash, Waltman, Road Dogg and Billy Gunn. Would absolutely love it if a healthy Hall was there too with them all.

Next Big Thing 02-20-2013 08:49 PM

Crazy what drugs and alcohol will do to you. DDP is two years older than Scott and only one year younger than Jake, but looks 10 years younger than both of them.

Really hoping they get it together. There seems like a lot of hope in that picture.

CSL 02-21-2013 01:03 PM

was gonna start a thread since I guess like Jake, the videos will be quite a regular thing now but this one already exists so may as well use it

Part III

lol ok so now I've actually started watching it, Part III is Part I with a Scott Hall intro

Skippord 02-21-2013 02:18 PM

jesus DDP and Jake have some gravelly voices

Corporate CockSnogger 02-21-2013 02:32 PM

DDP's probably had that voice since he was like 10 though.

Xero 02-21-2013 07:39 PM

Gonna be honest, just seeing Hall talking like that makes me happy and hopeful. Probably the most lucid and sober he's been in years in public (and who knows, maybe in general).

I didn't know Hall had been to rehab 11 times. Hopefully this is what he needs, since the "traditional" methods obviously didn't help him at all.

Only 11? Seriously? I'm not even joking, I'm astounded that it hasn't reached 20.

Bad News Gertner 03-10-2013 11:37 AM

Wow $36,000 raised already. Scott Hall is my 2nd favourite wrestler of all time next to Bradshaw. Really hope he makes it.

This is legit, yoga really is good for the body both mentally and physically. It is something that is done at your own pace, very simple and can really be used to focus on what is really wrong with your body.

XL 03-10-2013 04:10 PM

Hard to believe that 3 pretty huge names in wrestling need to fundraise for whatever it they need for Hall. Hall alone should have money in the bank based on what was likely a huge contract with WCW. Guess a lot was wasted on drugs. And hookers, I bet hookers were involved somewhere.

Bad News Gertner 03-10-2013 04:17 PM

Can't pin this on Page at all. I'm sure it's not good business to give someone $80,000 to fix their body with Hall's track record.

Lock Jaw 03-10-2013 04:22 PM

With Jake, at least it was like "Yeah, he seems to be doing well and genuinely wants this".

Hall just got there and his commitment is still up in the air. Unsure investment.

mike adamle 03-10-2013 04:22 PM

So why hasn't Scott's best friend Big Sexy Kevin Nash paid the 80 grand? He's all about the money

mike adamle 03-10-2013 04:24 PM

I've got all the faith in the world for Jake to stay healthy, I just feel like as soon as Scott leaves DDP's he's gonna hit the bottle.

Plus if he does it once who knows how many others are going to come looking for rehab bills to get paid. If it works I could see WWE chipping in on others though.

Arrogance 03-10-2013 04:58 PM

As the wrestling world seems to hear nothing but bad news, it's hard not to get behind the guy. Hall obviously needs more than just a yoga routine to get healthy, and hip problems would make it even more difficult just to get through the routine. A lot of guys would just give up right there, but good to see DDP taking the next step and trying to get him the help he needs that DDP can't take care of himself.

XL 03-10-2013 05:14 PM

What is the mone for, btw?

Hip replacement surgery and the ensuing rehab. Same reason they did the fundraiser for Jake, he needed shoulder surgery and rehab.

I'd guess that Nash has pissed away a lot of money on Hall already.

Next Big Thing 03-10-2013 07:55 PM

Wow. They're over halfway there 3 days in. I really hope Hall doesn't fuck this up.

James Steele 03-10-2013 09:45 PM

DDP is in control of the account the money is going into, so I'm not too concerned. Apparently, Scott Hall has been with DDP and Jake for over a month. The fundraiser page says he is 40+ days sober.

I can only imagine the pop Scott Hall would get if he came out to do his Hall of Fame speech and he was stone cold sober and cleaned up. We'd get a proper Kliq reunion and pro wrestling would finally have a happy ending for one of these guys. Imagine the good that could come out of ESPN doing a follow-up E:60 piece on Scott Hall after all this if it works.

Next Big Thing 03-10-2013 09:47 PM

I'm talking about the opportunity in general. It would just be so tragic if he got the surgery, went through DDP's program and then relapsed a year later.

A sober Scott Hall being inducted into the Hall of Fame might go down as one of the greatest moments in wrestling history. I'm cheering for him.

It is inevitable they will relapse. Technically, one single drink is a relapse. The key is that they stop before they go back over the deep end. Hopefully, they both will have strong support systems in place and will have somebody to help them with a single phone call.

Shadrick 03-10-2013 10:09 PM

As one of the biggest Scott Hall fans, I've been hoping and wishing that he would get it all together. Honestly I never had the opportunity to meet Scott, but his candor when talking about the fan in the first video really made me feel for him even more. I'm going to donate, I hope everyone else is as well. I really want him to get better.

James Steele 03-11-2013 12:29 AM

Now at $45K. They could raise an easy $250,000 at this rate.

Skippord 03-11-2013 12:39 AM

would be a shocking twist if we found out DDP is a junkie tricking everyone into funding his drug habit

What is up with Scott Hall and X-Pac though? Is 95% of their clothes nWo/DX shirts?

Next Big Thing 03-29-2013 04:59 PM

They're living the gimmick Steele. You of all people should appreciate that. I half expected Scott to spike the toothpick into the camera lens when he finished.

Good to hear him so coherent.

Christ, how on Earth a man can look better post-surgery than he looked a few months ago is just insane. I can't imagine how much better he'd sound if he hadn't had a tube down his damn throat.

Seriously though. Been watching 1995/96 WWF ppvs lately with Razor Ramon in such tremendous shape. It's nuts that addiction changed him from that to what he is now. Really shows you the power of drug addiction :(
