Scott Hall has passed away at age 63
 
Scott Hall is on life support after suffering several heart attacks last night, per a new report. Wade Keller of PW Torch reports that the WWE Hall of Famer had three heart attacks last night at a hospital in Marietta, Georgia and is now on life support.

Hall had hip replacement surgery last week, but according to the new report he had a serious complication caused by a blood clot getting loose. Hall is a two-time member of the Hall of Famer, both as a solo inductee through his WWE character Razor Ramon and as part of the now.


Edit: Scott has sadly passed away

Fuck! Three heart attacks :(

Bad News Gertner 03-13-2022 03:38 PM

Yeah, you barely see anyone kick out of one

And that's why the Hart Foundation were two time World Wrestling Federation Tag Team Champions.

weather vane 03-13-2022 06:40 PM

Very sad.

Maluco 03-13-2022 07:06 PM

Just when he had turned his life around too. I really hope he can pull through this and enjoy the life he fought so hard to turn around a little more.

Sepholio 03-13-2022 07:12 PM

Damn :(

Scott Hall and Kevin Oats, the greatest of all time.

I can't go for that joke, Sean. No can do.

Crippla 03-14-2022 12:14 AM

Very sad news. I know it doesn't look good but hope there is some way he can pull through this and at the very least I hope he is as comfortable as possible and not painfully suffering.

GD 03-14-2022 06:27 AM

Kevin Nash said that he’ll be taken off life support once his family is ready.

Evil Vito 03-14-2022 07:52 AM

Nooooo :(

Evil Vito 03-14-2022 08:01 AM

As sad as all this is, there's something to be said for the last ten years or so - a decade ago, "Scott Hall on life support" is the kind of headline you wouldn't have been surprised to see every time you went online.

That he was able to get relatively healthy, reconnect with friends in the wrestling business, and have the third act of a Hall of Fame induction and regular appearances as a respected "legend", and to be around to hear all the plaudits and praise that came with that, always felt like a blessing.

Supreme Olajuwon 03-14-2022 08:44 AM

Damn this sucks. Such a great talent. The wrestling boom of the late 90s probably doesn’t happen without him.


One positive takeaway from this though is when he does pass, he’s already shown us he’s going to make a really great ghost.

I motion that TPWW hold a monthlong celebration of The Bad Guy. Scottober will be held just ahead of Nashvember.

If I’m Coke and Wadding is Pepsi then you must be fizzy poo juice.

Evil Vito 03-14-2022 05:11 PM

Hall was reportedly taken off of life support 4 hours ago. There's like a 98% chance he'll be gone shortly, barring a miracle kickout.

Say goodbye to the bad guy :(

Fignuts 03-14-2022 05:16 PM

I dunno, there was like a 98% chance I was gonna be gone, and I never even won the European title.

Danny Electric 03-14-2022 05:20 PM

Honestly can’t tell you how gutted I am. Scott Hall as Razor Ramon was my favourite wrestler as a kid, I used to think that he was the coolest guy. Fuck this sucks.

Prefer Seph’s “Scottober” tbh.

#1-norm-fan 03-14-2022 08:06 PM

Chicotober, another option.

Shisen Kopf 03-14-2022 08:25 PM

Scotchtober bc I'm sure Hall had a bottle or 50 in his day

#1-norm-fan 03-14-2022 08:37 PM

Yeah, because that would mean my being drunk on scotch all throughout October would be in memory of Scott and not just because I’m an alcoholic.

Evil Vito 03-14-2022 09:06 PM

WWE have confirmed Hall’s passing :(

CBright7831 03-14-2022 09:06 PM

I remember watching that video in 2012 where DDP and Jake called him, and Scott said that he had a bottle of vodka for breakfast that morning. I'm happy that he was able to stay sober for the last few years and able to even train and tour with his son. Scott was someone that was on verge of a tragedy with a really depressing ending and he was able to get an extended happy epilogue by going into the HOF, making seldom TV appearances, and get on the meet & greet convention circuit. This is still tough though.

Sepholio 03-14-2022 09:09 PM

Guttered. RIP Scott.

Destor 03-14-2022 09:21 PM

I was hoping for one more kickout at 2 and a half

Seanny One Ball 03-14-2022 09:25 PM

We should do a Scott Hall night for the watch-along. Every time a great wrestler dies, a viewing should be held.

Bad News Gertner 03-14-2022 09:25 PM

What a fucking punch he had. Just outstanding. Definitely on my top 5 favourite wrestlers. He was just so fucking cool.

Sepholio 03-14-2022 09:26 PM

Seanny One Ball 03-14-2022 09:27 PM

R.I.P. Scott Hall you were the first “cool” wrestler I really remember. Attitude before the Era. It’s easy to forget how big he was both physically and popularity-wise. A hero for those in our thirties and forties.

Ol Dirty Dastard 03-14-2022 09:27 PM

The guy had such cross-over appeal, just never really got to take advantage of it (for many reasons, a bunch of them valid). There was nobody that watched him who didn't think he was the coolest mofo around.

Seanny One Ball 03-14-2022 09:28 PM

Is Kevin Oats still healthy from ravioli?

I hope so.

Ol Dirty Dastard 03-14-2022 09:28 PM

lol at everyone posting at the same time about how cool he was likely without seeing one another's posts. That says it all.

Seanny One Ball 03-14-2022 09:32 PM

Razor Ramon was good shit pal but I have to admit that Outsider/nWo Scott Hall was just the coolest cunt on planet Earth for about a year and a half.

Then Attitude happened. Attitude was so many stolen ideas that were stolen ideas all rolled into one.

Childhood :heart:

Wrestling :heart:

Scott Hall :heart:

#1-norm-fan 03-14-2022 09:32 PM

Obviously, the show will be dedicated to Scott Hall this Thursday.

Ol Dirty Dastard 03-14-2022 09:34 PM

nWo Scott Hall (especially 1996 and 1997) was immense because he got to 100% embrace counterculture. But he also did the work and the market research to find out what actually was "cool." Which TBH isn't that easy. Think about trying to lean into hip hop culture and appeal to teenagers and early twenty-somethings like the nWo did when you're pushing 40.

I noticed Gertner’s post above mine and was all “great minds think alike” and then when it refreshed you were there too saying the exact same thing.

Hall had us all.

I always thought the nWo would have not turned out as great with ANYBODY else being the first to show up. Just a star through and through. RIP

his punch is absolutely top tier

Seanny One Ball 03-14-2022 09:45 PM

He had a unique punch for sure. I liked using it in Smackdown CAWs

Jordan 03-14-2022 09:45 PM

My favorite memory of Hall is the night he showed up on WCW. That may have been the first real true mind blown mark out of my life for wrestling. I was shook for the whole week. What a time.

Also though to me he is the premier Intercontinental Champion and the most legit contender for best character in WWE history that never won "the big one". You could have easily gotten Razor hot enough in 94-96 for a World Championship run. Especially with Shawn as champ if Razor had stayed.

Seanny One Ball 03-14-2022 09:46 PM

He really should have been in porn based on that picture though. Who is that with him, Spivey?

his punch was a magic trick. he could do that punch with you standing with your nose on the other guys chin and youd swear he decked him. it was art.

Ol Dirty Dastard 03-14-2022 09:53 PM

Rock tried to mimick the Hall punch but it lacked the oomph. Hall always looked like he was knocking the shit out of the recipient and it didn't seem like he slapped the leg.

i dont remember rock doing a punch very often tbh

Destor 03-14-2022 09:58 PM

thinking about it the brass knucks at wm14 might be the only punch i can recall...surely there were others...

Unless that was an insult towards his punches because they were featherlight and I'm just stupid.

Seanny One Ball 03-14-2022 10:00 PM

I actually get what he means there. He’s talking about his open hand slaps though.

Sepholio 03-14-2022 10:00 PM

Dales right. Rock threw similar punches that just didn't look as stiff. You could tell Rock was pulling them clear as day.

Seanny One Ball 03-14-2022 10:01 PM

its common for guys to let their fist limp before contact sure but if rock was punching you could see the work from the cheap seats


hall however as good as it gets

Seanny One Ball 03-14-2022 10:07 PM

How do we get his best matches available to view together?

If not his best, at least a good career matinee.

Seanny One Ball 03-14-2022 10:08 PM

I would like to see a match from every iteration of his persona(not drunk please).
That would be lovely stuff.

Destor 03-14-2022 10:10 PM

conceptually matches from different phases of his career would be cool. maybe not his most legendary matches instead have some stuff when he was smashing jobbers on saturday night and whatnot. lesser sung moments that encapsulate gall throughout the eras. he had a lot of different phases.

Yeah, Hall straight slugged dudes (obviously not, but he laid it in and it looked brutal). Loved how Shawn sold his punches.

Yeah man for years it's been Piper and Razor as the 2 guys who makes no sense they were never World Champ in WWE or WCW.
