Web Desk — World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) has lost a legend as Scott Oliver Hall, the former professional wrestler has passed away. He was 63.

Scott Hall rose to fame in the early 90s as the arrogant “Bad Guy” Razor Ramon, known for wearing gold chains and flicking a toothpick at opponents.

World Wrestling Entertainment has issued a condolence message by calling Mr. Hall a “hugely influential superstar.”

Mr. Hall appeared on the WWE arena in the 1990s and early 2000s, under the watchful eye of Vince McMahon, the chairman of the WWE. It was a golden era for wrestling as it produced heavyweight stars like Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, “Stone Cold” Steve Austin Bill Goldberg, Big Show, and the Undertaker, among others.

Medical Issues
According to Pro Wrestling Torch, Mr. Hall had suffered complications from hip replacement surgery this month. He had been on life support in Georgia following three heart attacks over the weekend, the website reported.

Kevin Nash
Kevin Nash, former professional wrestler and Hall’s old friend, said in an Instagram post on Sunday that Mr. Hall’s family had intended to take him off life support.

“I’m going to lose the one person on this planet I’ve spent more of my life with than anyone else,” Mr. Nash wrote. “I love Scott with all my heart but now I have to prepare my life without him in the present.”

Scot Hall and Kevin Nash were taken as villain in the eyes of wrestling fans all over the globe. The world that saw him as a villain in the ring is not sad at his death. It goes without saying that Mr. Hall had a fan following all over the world.

Scott Hall Career
Mr. Hall started his wrestling career in 1984 and joined World Championship Wrestling (WCW) in 1991 as the Diamond Studd, according to WWE. The next year he joined the WWE, then known as the World Wrestling Federation (WWF), as Razor Ramon, a character influenced by Al Pacino’s portrayal of Tony Montana in “Scarface.”

Mr. Hall became a four-time Intercontinental Champion during his time with the WWE. Two of his most famous performances were ladder matches — a contest to grab the championship belt, hung above the ring, using a ladder — against Shawn Michaels for that title at WrestleMania X and SummerSlam 1995.

Mr. Hall rejoined WCW in 1996 as a heel, or as portraying the villain, under his given name and became a founding member of the New World Order (NWO), alongside Mr. Nash and Hulk Hogan.

Mr. Hall also spent his career on various promotions, such as Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW), New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW), and Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA), where he held the TNA World Tag Team Championship once, with Kevin Nash and Eric Young.

Excessive Use of Drugs and Alchohol
Out of the ring, Mr. Hall struggled with drugs and alcohol abuse, and went to rehab at least a dozen times, according to a 2017 interview. He said that WWE supported some of his treatment, and also credited another wrestler, Diamond Dallas Page, for helping with his recovery.

WWE Hall of Famer
Mr. Hall was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame as Razor Ramon in 2014 and again in 2020 as a member of the NWO.

“I learned that when I stepped through that curtain, I could have a relationship as a performer with an audience,” Mr. Hall said during his 2014 induction speech. “And it was a powerful thing to me, whether I was the hated villain or the beloved hero. That was something that I’ve always treasured.”

He ended the speech: “In my lifetime, I’ve learned hard work pays off, dreams come true, bad times don’t last, but bad guys do.”
