Twitter user @stevevr1965 went to a wrestling event in Fall River, MA and had this to say about Scott Hall's appearance:

"Update on Scott Hall. He was so gone at the top rope show in Fall River Ma tonight. Very embarrassing for him & promotion. I didn't take any pics because I was actually sad for him. But others took video that will surely end up on youtube. Hall was so wasted he needed two people to help him move. He couldn't sign autographs only take pics and his eyes were half closed."

Scotty 2 Hotty (@thescotty2hotty), who was also at the show, re-tweeted part of what @stevevr1965 wrote and posted the following himself:

"Just witnessed the saddest, most embarrassing thing in my career!!!! How many guys have to die before some guys learn?"

So sad

It doesn't even look like he's drunk. He looks really sick

Sorry if it's old

As bad as Hall was, the promotion should be ashamed of themselves for literally shoving him into a ring.

Agreed.

Also Agree with this.

Plus it's gonna be an IPPV hurray!

Just watching that, I can't understand why any person with anything resembling a conscience would allow anyone in that bad a shape to go out to the ring like that, much less help them walk to the ring instead of a hospital. Scott moved like a 90 year old man in that video, sad, just sad.

[repomanfan]

From watching some of the "Last call" videos on youtube, I thought Scott was doing a lot better; obviously not. Alcoholism is a strange disease, that I can't begin to understand.

[theryno665]

This makes me want to cry. I'm not even joking.

[Totorob101]

He has been like this for many many years,sadly he will never change.So sad to see but it seems he is beyond help ...

[Deleted]

That promoter has no soul.

[smokey1980]

Very lame of the promoters to drag him out there in that condition. Even if he was advertised, that's why cards are subject to change. And shame on anyone heckling him. That's like heckling a homeless guy on the street now.

I hope this isn't the last we see of Scott. I'll always be pulling for him, even if his problems are, to a degree, self inflicted.

[corndog]

I could be wrong, but did he say he just got out of the hospital earlier that day from having a seizure? Maybe it really is something else.

Just looked it up and found this article

I would imagine that it's a combination of things now. Legit health problems, possibly prescription meds, and years of abuse on his body. They all compound on each other.

To a degree? Try "mostly". Yeah, whatever promoter shoved him out there was really shady, but if Scott Hall had shown up....ya know, sober, it wouldn't have been an issue. Or at least certainly not as big of one. Hall's got one person to blame for his problems, and his name is Scott Hall.

[lionheart21]

That was depressing on so many levels. And I thought TNA forcing a drugged-out Jeff Hardy to wrestle was bad. As bad as that was, at least Jeff was able to walk on his own accord. There is absolutely no excuse for this.

And the fans aren't making it any better. Its because of people like that why I never go to indy wrestling shows.

Yeah, it's funny, I actually had typed "mostly" then went back and forth on it several times before settling on what I ended up typing. I'd say you're probably correct. I just tend to err on the other side when it comes to whole question of where the disease ends and personal responsibility begins, but it's a question I sort of wrestle with and go back and forth on.

[hoganhallnash]

It's funny that this promotion doesn't seem to have any clue of Hall's track record, yet still book him.

I agree wholeheartedly that the man's got a disease, and it's not an easy one to cure, but he clearly doesn't have the willpower or self-respect to even try, so I've kind of given up on Hall.

It's not that. Because a lot of places still book him. What makes this look bad is how careless this promotion is. If you have someone who can not walk on his own. Need to help him do anything at all. From walking to the ring to just standing in it. You don't put him out there. Hall been in a lot of shows with his rep but never did he show up in that bad of condition.

The guy was in seriously bad shape and they didn't care. They shouldn't have put him out there. They should have tooken him to a hospitial. reports say he couldn't sign an autograph. Then really what is the point of him being there then.

This company should be ashamed of themselves for allowing this to happen. They make TNA look like saints here because at less Jeff hardy could do this under his own power. You think after what did happen with Jeff. It be a wakeup call for other promotions to pay attention to there talent.

Um. If as you say...he can't if he can't walk on his own...needed help to do anything at all...walking to the ring and standing in it...can't sign autographs....shouldn't have been there in the first place...

WHY BOOK HIM.

It has everything to do with it! You know what you get with Scott Hall.
