WWE, wrestling world pay tribute to Scott Hall

Posted on by Ethan Renner

Tributes to Scott Hall poured in on Monday following the WWE Hall of Famer’s passing at the age of 63. 

During Monday’s Raw, Kevin Owens opened the show with a “Hey, yo,” one of Hall’s trademark catchphrases. Owens made another Hall reference in a backstage segment with Seth Rollins, calling back to Hall’s first WWE Hall of Fame induction speech. 

Damian Priest used Hall’s Razor’s Edge finisher in the first match on Raw, sending Finn Balor onto the announce table. 

WWE aired a tribute video to Hall in the show’s third hour. 

Hall’s longtime friend and tag team partner Kevin Nash shared an image of the duo on Instagram prior to word of Hall’s passing broke. 

Fellow Kliq member Sean “x-Pac” Waltman shared a photo of Hall with the late Curt Hennig, and spoke of how Hall looked out for him while he was out injured when both were in WCW. 

Paul “Triple H” Levesque issued a rare public statement on Twitter: 

Tributes also came from talent and promotions around the world, from AEW’s official Twitter account, NWA, former WCW and current AEW talent Sting and Tony Schiavone, as well as NJPW’s Satoshi Kojima and NJPW president Takami Ohbari. 

Diamond Dallas Page, who played a large part in Hall’s personal life in helping him battle addiction, posted: 

Other wrestling legends and current talent also chimed in and paid their own respects: 

WWE Hall of Famer Scott Hall passes away at 63 years old

Posted on by Josh Nason

Scott Hall, one of the most recognizable stars of the Monday Night War era of pro wrestling, passed away Monday at the age of 63 years old.

WWE announced Hall’s passing with a graphic at the top of Monday’s Raw broadcast and on social media at 8 p.m. Eastern time.

Hall was taken off life support Monday after suffering three heart attacks Saturday. He had been in a Georgia hospital since March 1 after he sustained a broken hip that required surgery. A blood clot got loose last week and Hall developed serious complications that led to the heart attacks.

A pro since 1984, Hall gained national prominence as Razor Ramon in the then-WWF in 1992. Influenced by the Tony Montana and Manny Ribera characters from the 1983 movie Scarface, Hall eventually became a top act in the company, feuding with other stars like Randy Savage and then-WWF Champion Bret Hart. He also had memorable storylines and matches with Shawn Michaels, which led to the famous ladder match at WrestleMania X, and Sean Waltman, then the 1-2-3 Kid.

He and WWE Kliq-mate Kevin Nash (WWF’s Diesel) left for WCW with Hall first making a surprise appearance on a May 1996 episode of Monday Nitro. Nash appeared a month later and formed the tag team The Outsiders, which eventually led to Hulk Hogan turning heel at that year’s Bash at the Beach and the launch of the nWo with Waltman eventually joining them.

Hall would remain in the company until 2000, leaving with seven Tag Team title reigns and two U.S. title reigns to his credit.

Hall, Nash and Hogan eventually made their way back to WWE, reviving the nWo in 2002. His stay didn’t last long as he was released following “the plane ride from hell” in May 2002, the infamous trip from the United Kingdom to the U.S. chronicled on last season’s Dark Side of the Ring series. Hall was fired stemming from both his actions on the plane and his ongoing battles with substance abuse.

Hall’s post-WWE and WCW career would take him to stops in ECW, New Japan Pro Wrestling, TNA, the World Wrestling Council and even Juggalo Championship Wrestling.

He was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame twice, once for his run as Razor Ramon and then as part of the nWo. He made a handful of on-screen appearances since 2014, mainly in DX and nWo reunion segments with fellow Kliq members Michaels, Paul “HHH” Levesque, Nash and Waltman.

Other notable titles Hall held include the AWA Tag Team titles (with Curt Hennig); the TNA Tag Team titles (with Nash and Eric Young); and the WWC Universal title.

His aforementioned struggles with substance abuse and the resulting health and legal issues were well-documented. His friend and former WCW stablemate “Diamond” Dallas Page attempted to help Hall through his DDP Yoga program, seen in the The Resurrection of Jake The Snake documentary. Hall also had done rehab through the WWE Wellness Program.

Hall was married twice and has both a son and a daughter from those marriages.

Monday News Update

  • Scott Hall was removed from life support today at about Noon Eastern time. As of the last word, his heart was still beating and he was still breathing. As noted earlier today, miracles have happened but there would have to be one in this case. Hall suffered three heart attacks yesterday after surgery for a broken hip suffered a few days back.
  • Bryan and I will be back tonight talking Raw, New Japan Cup, ratings, Scott Hall and more. You can send questions to the show to [email protected]
  • We’re looking for reports from last night’s WWE shows in Pensacola, FL and Savannah,GA, as well as from tonight’s Raw in Jacksonville with Main Event matches or anything not on the live show to [email protected]

So this is the Cody Rhodes update. He was still listed for WrestleMania as of Friday. For tonight:

  • If they shoot a WrestleMania angle with Seth Rollins not involving Cody Rhodes, that may mean it fell through
  • If Cody Rhodes appears tonight, well, you know that means he’s 100 percent in
  • If he doesn’t appear but they don’t shoot a big angle for Seth Rollins at Wrestlemania, he’s probably still in but not a lock. If he is on the show tonight, he’s in hiding and nobody is aware of it.
  • No matches were announced for Raw past Kevin Owens will cut an interview about Steve Austin and there will be a tag team celebration of Randy Orton & Riddle winning the titles.
  • Regarding the subject of scalping tickets, which has been a major subject given the price consumers paid for All Out and Revolution, not to mention concerts, John Oliver talked about it last night on Last Week Tonight here and here.
  • Kazuchika Okada beat Taichi and Cima upset Hirooki Goto to lead to Okada vs. Cima on Sunday in the New Japan Cup. Today’s show in Okayama at 5:30 a.m. Eastern has Tetsuya Naito vs. Hiroshi Tanahashi and Jeff Cobb vs. Yoshi-Hashi. The two winners will wrestle Sunday.
  • Season two of Young Rock debuts tomorrow night. Episode one features Dwayne Johnson moving to Nashville and Dwayne Johnson playing in the CFL. Variety reported that a nemesis for Johnson is being introduced this season called Dr. Julian Echo, who had run-ins with him as a good, and now is a chiropractor in Minnesota but still holds a grudge against him. Sean Astin of Goonies fame plays the role.
  • Was told Saturday’s El Hijo del Vikingo vs. Flamita match from Monterrey on FITE was an amazing match.
  • FTR retained the AAA tag titles on Sunday in Merida but not over Pentagon Jr. & Fenix. Instead they beat a sub team, Dragon Lee & Dralistico. Penta tried to interfere and cost Lee the match. 

AEW

  • Late buys for Revolution from after the first reported numbers for cable were high due to word of mouth plus the promotion on both Wednesday and Friday’s shows. 

Dark Elevation tonight:

  • Nyla Rose vs. Katalina Perez
  • Frankie Kazarian vs. Tiger Ruas
  • The Bunny & Emi Sakura vs. Skye Blue & KiLynn King
  • Jay Lethal vs. Marrik Donovan
  • Ruby Soho vs. Amber Nova
  • John Silver & Alex Reynolds vs. Luther & Serpentico

UFC

  • Alexander Volkov vs. Tom Aspinall is still listed as the main event for this coming Saturday’s show at the O2 Arena in London. With the war going on and Russia being subject to sanctions, the question is whether Volkov, Russian, would be allowed to enter the U.K. The U.K. parliament has already decreed that the U.K. would not welcome sports teams from any country complicit with Russia or from Russia. There may be a loophole this is doesn’t extend to individual sports and only applies to team sports since he is still listed.

Other Notes

  • Toonstar, a Web3 animations studio and Sixth Wall, the digital arm of Mila Kunis’ Orchard Form Productions announced the launch of The Gimmicks, a Web3 animated NFT series. It will feature the voices of Karl Anderson, Doc Gallows, Rocky Romero and nZo.

Scott Hall to be taken off life support once family in place

Posted on by Bryan Rose

**********

Scott Hall will be taken off life support once his family is in place.

Kevin Nash wrote on Instagram that life support will be removed for Hall, who suffered three heart attacks on Saturday following complications from hip surgery.

“Scott’s on life support,” Nash wrote. “Once his family is in place they will discontinue life support. I’m going to lose the one person on this planet I’ve spent more of my life with than anyone else. My heart is broken and I’m so very f****** sad. I love Scott with all my heart but now I have to prepare my life without him in the present. I’ve been blessed to have a friend that took me at face value and I him.”

Hall had been in the hospital since March 1 after suffering a broken hip that required surgery. Complications started when a blood clot became loose.

Hall is best known for his run in WWE as Razor Ramon and later in WCW as a founding member of the New World Order. He’s a four-time WWE Intercontinental Champion, a seven-time WCW Tag Team Champion, two-time United States Champion, and also held the WCW Television Championship.

Sunday News Update

  • Best wishes to the family and friends of Scott Hall in hoping he can pull out of this grave situation after suffering three heart attacks while undergoing hip surgery.
  • Bryan and I will be back tonight with Wrestling Observer Radio talking Scott Hall, Big E, Cody Rhodes, WrestleMania and more. You can also send questions to the show to [email protected] We have a weekend show with Garrett Gonzales up on the site right now.
  • We’re looking for reports from tonight’s WWE shows in Savannah, GA and Pensacola, FL to [email protected]
  • Pro wrestling Hall of Famer Hiroshi Hase, 60, was elected today as Governor of the Ishikawa prefecture in Japan (thanks to Gerard Di Trolio).
  • We’ve talked about how misleading the ratings are because in the current era, unlike pre-2012 or so, the ratings were based on home getting the station as opposed to percentage of homes overall including being handicapped by millions of homes in the average that may not even have access to the station. With less people getting the key stations, there are drops in ratings that should be expected. So for the last week, in 18-49s, for example, this would be the real percentages based on homes that get the station this year and last year. 

For the past week the actual percentage of 18-49 viewers in the homes the station is available would be:

  • Dynamite 0.58
  • NXT 0.20
  • Raw 0.67
  • Smackdown 0.70

For one year ago it would be:

  • Dynamite 0.43
  • NXT 0.24
  • Raw 0.74
  • Smackdown 0.71
      Essentially Smackdown is unchanged, Raw is down 9.5 percent, NXT is down 16.7 percent and Dynamite is up 34.9 percent from the same week last year based on how 18-49 ratings should be measured and for decades were.
  • In the Google searches for the past week, Scott Hall was fourth this morning but at last look was no longer in the top 20. Yesterday’s UFC show was No. 15 with 50,000, which is very low,b but it wasn’t any kind of a marquee show. Big E was No. 10 on Friday with 100,000. I was expecting Jeff Hardy to crack the top 20 on Wednesday but it didn’t happen.

The International Pro Wrestling Hall of Fame in Albany, NY listed these inductees for the 2022 Class:

  • Alex Aberg
  • Steve Austin
  • Fred Beell
  • Mildred Burke
  • Tom Cannon
  • Riki Choshu
  • Dory Funk Jr.
  • Karl Gotch
  • Tom Jenkins
  • Jim Londos
  • Billy Robinson
  • Joe Stecher
  • Genichiro Tenryu
  • WWE Smackdown results from last night in Jackson, MS: Viking Raiders b Los Lotharios, Shayna Baszler b Aliyah, Usos won over Kofi Kingston & Xavier Woods and idge Holland & Sheamus to keep tag titles, Ricochet b Sami Zayn to keep IC title, Happy Corbin b Shinsuke Nakamura, Sasha Banks & Naomi b Charlotte Flair & Sonya Deville, Roman Reigns b Drew McIntyre to keep Universal title (thanks to Jay Gunn).
  • First day tickets out for NXT Stand & Deliver on 4/2 in Dallas at Noon local time is 3,286. They are setting up for 5,000. There will likely be a huge walk-up with so many fans in town so they will likely hit the goal of 5,000.

WWE

  • WWE and Walmart announced an event called WWE Ringside at Walmart in Fort Worth, TX 3/19 and 3/20 from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. both days. There will be WWE talent at the event, which will have a 2K22 gaming experience, memorabilia displays photo opportunities and WrestleMania tickets.

Report: Scott Hall on life support after suffering heart attacks in complications from hip surgery

Posted on by Ian Carey

Scott Hall is reportedly on life support after developing serious complications from a recent hip surgery.

According to a report from PWTorch, Hall suffered three heart attacks on Saturday. Hall has been in the hospital since March 1 after suffering a broken hip that required surgery. Last week, Hall developed serious complications from the surgery when a blood clot got loose. He is currently on life support at Wellstar Kennestone Hospital in Marietta, Georgia.

Hall is a two-time WWE Hall of Famer, having been inducted in 2014 as Razor Ramon and in 2020 as part of the nWo.

In 1994, Hall’s ladder match with Shawn Michaels at WrestleMania X was voted Match of the Year in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter awards. Hall also won Best Gimmick in 1996 as a member of the New World Order. He’s a four-time WWE Intercontinental Champion, seven-time WCW Tag Team Champion, two-time United States Champion, and once held the WCW Television Championship.

WWE Hall of Famer Scott Hall suffers broken hip

Posted on by Ethan Renner

WWE Hall of Famer Scott Hall has been hospitalized. 

PWInsider reports via Jerry Jarrett’s Facebook page that Hall, 63, fell and broke his hip and is currently in the hospital. 

Hall has been announced for WrestleCon on WrestleMania weekend in Dallas, and it is unclear if his injury will force a change to that scheduled appearance. 

Under his Razor Ramon gimmick, Hall was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame for the first time in 2014. As Scott Hall, he was part of the nWo-headlined 2021 Hall of Fame ceremony, though officially a member of the 2020 class. The 2020 WWE Hall of Fame ceremony was postponed to the following year due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Hall’s 1994 WrestleMania X ladder match against Shawn Michaels was voted Match of the Year in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter awards. His last high-profile run on the national stage came in 2010 as a member of the TNA roster in a short-lived reunion with Kevin Nash and X-Pac as The Band.
