Outsiders vs New Age Outlaws from 3/21/09

[biff]

The main event featured Kevin Nash and Scott Hall vs. BG James and Kip James.

Scott Hall appeared to be annebriated. Nash had to help him up the ring steps. Hall’s hair is quite gray, and he dyed it a blue/black color, looking more blue than black. Hall could barely work. Nash worked the match despite recovering from a staph infection and covered it up with a hockey elbow pad. Hall didn’t even have his wrestling gear, and attempted to wrestle in blue jeans and an ICP jersey.

The finish of the match saw Hall go for a tag, but Nash jumped down, allowing Kip James to hit a famouser and win the match for the former New Age Outlaws. After the match, Nash cut a promo on Hall saying that he now knows how it feels to be left out in the cold, but at least gave him credit for showing up.

10 years ago, that match would have been epic.

Now, not so much.

Seriously.

I'd like to say I was surprised about hearing Hall being drunk, but I'd be lying.

11 years too late.

A decade ago this match would have been the biggest tag match of that era. Shame but this is still nice to see (except for Scott Hall).

I originally read the thread title as "3/21/99" and was like "What? How?"

But yeah, agreed, all 4 workers are past their prime at this point...

its good to see the indie cards get a few old timers who used to be big draws as it isnt about great wrestling for any of those guys at this point its more about nostalgia for them and the people who maybe bought a ticket just to go down that trip from memory lane.

Nash and B.G James can still out due almost anyone on a mic.

Maybe they could do a 3way tag match and add Demolition.

[George Harrison]

What is happening between Hall & Nash? Was this just a one night thing?

This.

It's sad to see how far Hall has fallen.

Hasn't Hall always been like this?

Know that you mention it, yeah, basically.

But I thought there was a period where he truly cleaned himself up. Guess not?

The poor guy's been in rehab a few times. Shame cause he was a good wrestler & had great personality.

NAO using their old music.
Outsiders using their old music.
Three of four guys employed by TNA.




















Somebody's gonna get sued! ;D

Pity Hall is still ill. Sadly he is just going to be another statistic at the end of the day. His heart is obviously not in thew wrestling game and there is obviously a lot of family or personal problems we don;t know about for him to be unable to quit drinking alcohol. It is a shame about his illness as he was one of my all time favorite in the 90's both in WWF and WCW.

Can you really blame Vince if he did decided to sue them?

I know I wouldn't especially after the recent tragic death Andrew Martin.

Better yet, make it a 4-way and include the Impact Players (Lance Storm & Justin Credible).

They tag together every now and then when they can. What with Nash being in TNA and Hall....out there somewhere.

If you watch the end of the video they announce Hall vs Nash will take place in June.

From around 2006-2007 Hall was sober for awhile and it was reported he was trying to get back in shape for one last run. Hall was even the WWC Heavyweight Champion for a short peroid. He said in some podcast that Triple H called him and told him if he could get his demons under control for good, there was a spot for him in WWE.

Then those ICP losers got a hold of him and enable him by giving him as much drugs and booze he wants which resulted in Hall no showing a TNA PPV, attacking a comedian, getting arrested for shoving some dude and his wife, and their drunken "invasion" of Turning Point.

Got any proof on ICP leading to the downfall of Scott Hall? Cuz last time I checked, JCW was a decent place for wrestlers to get a good paycheck. And I don't even give a shit about ICP, your accusation just seems baseless.

[mrjl]

you know, considering this is a set up for a Hall vs Nash match isn't it possible this was a work?
