From Gerweck: Scott Hall who recently underwent a lengthy stay at a rehabilitation center for ( alcoholism ) which was paid for by his former employer the WWE, was set to make his return to the ring in Panama for " Revolution Xtreme Wrestling " ( TODAY ) Saturday June 21st to face current RXW champion Savio Vega is said to have missed his flight and is an apparent " no show ". Many have tried reaching the former NWO member but to no avail, rumor has it that just a couple of days prior to making his comeback, Hall relapsed and began drinking once again, which would explain apparently no showing the RXW event. The RXW event also features TNA Knockout Christy Hemme, AAA's Ricky Bandera's as well as Hall's close friend and manager Rico Casanova. Scott Hall who recently launched a website www.TheScottHall.com and a Myspace page www.Myspace.com/ScottHallWolfpack4Life was reported prior to this latest news as being in great spirits while working out hard to get into ring shape for his return. Recently filmed videos of Scott Hall can be seen on both his website and Myspace page, videos include a theatrical comeback video of sorts, a message to Savio Vega and another which seems to be a direct message to Samoa Joe. Hall who's image appears on the video message to Savio Vega seemed to have lost weight and looked to be getting physically back to his old self again. Scott Hall is also scheduled to appear in Spain for Nu-Wrestling Evolution on June 25 & 26, but at this point one can only wonder if he will follow through with his future commitments.

I'm going to wait until Hall releases a statement or no shows another event before passing judgment but we all know where this road is going to lead. Damn Scott

People have relapsed before and then gotten clean. I just hope Hall gets himself back in rehab, does the last part of the program again, and stays clean.

Scott Hall has always been one of my favorite wrestlers, and I really feel for him, with all these personal demons he's gone through.
But I swear to god, it's just too far now. One more time, and I give up. I REALLY hope that he can get better and make a return to some company. (preferably TNA to feud with Joe and reform the Outsiders like they were supposed to do last year)

Sad news. Hopefully he can pull it together for his own sake and his child's sake.

His demons and bipolar disorder seem to be too much to overcome. He's my favorite wrestler of all time, but maybe wrestling is part of his problem? Maybe he needs to stay away completely.

In order to fall off a wagon, don't you need to have been on said wagon in the first place?

Damn this really sucks. Dealing with bipolar/depression/any mental illness is really one of the hardest things to treat in life espically if you are addicted to something which just makes it worse. I really hope Scott Hall can defeat his demons that have been haunting him for decades and get his life back on track.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but this has happened repeatedely over the last ten to fifteen years. Honestly, I think Hall is done, how many times has he been to rehab and "cleaned up" only to be drunk again at some wrestling event a whole week later? Oh well, atleast he is still going to rehab and trying to make himself better, and he was one of my all time favorites.

Just to add to it, whoever does his Myspace page posted a bulletin about "no-shows" at a TNA show he went to. As if his no shows are somehow justified if Kurt Angle doesnt show up to a house show. Its sad really. Imagine the Nash-Samoa Joe blow off with a run in by Hall. It would be wonderful, but instead its just sad.
