I'm not usually superstitious or anything but shouldn't have walked under that ladder, Razor! Considering everything that happened to him after. Despite his his bad 90's rep with the Kliq he is still one of the best to ever do it in the 'E though and seemed to be a happy guy towards the end of his life at least helping out the younger guys to boot. RIP chico. Think about how many ladders Jeff Hardy walked under.

Very sad situation, but there is peace in knowing that he is not hurting, anymore. I continue to mourn for his family, friends, and other fellow fans.
Continue to RIP. We will remember you for the good times. You left a lifetime of memories for fans and future fans to enjoy.

This is terrible to read but also a reminder of how the pandemic f***ed with people's mental health. It's a gut punch but I guess it's a lesson, too. I was never a big drinker, but I quit drinking period in 2018, after my best friend admitted to me she was an alcoholic. I stopped because I wanted to show solidarity with her, but at the start of the pandemic, I started drinking again, due to the stress of working in a nursing home in the middle of a global health crisis. I stopped after about six months when I realized it was f***ing me up bad, since I'm also on anxiety meds. Like, it wasn't affecting me in the sense that I had a drinking problem, but it was making me more depressed. The point of this is, we've all been through something and even the strongest people can falter in the face of uncertainty. It's certainly terrifying to find out that he was stuck in his home for several days before someone found him. A co-worker of mine died home alone from cancer twelve years ago and wasn't discovered until a few days later. So sad and scary.

Scott having apologized and burying the hatchet with Sessions Moth Martina makes me happy. I wonder how many more that Hall wasn't last publicly on good terms with over the past decade have squashed their issues in private. What happened between Scott and Martina?

I absolute love his little smirk after the âHey Yoâ when the nWo debuted in WWE. He breaks the facade and for a moment thereâs a hint of genuine surprised happiness at the huge pop.

The Lapsed Fan is doing a Scott Hall Tribute show this week. I learned today that one of Vince's ideas for names when he first came into the company was.... Shrug Shadow. LOL

LOL If the theory that the multiverse exists, so eventually every possibility is occurring, somewhere a WrestleMania match with Chilly McFreeze and Shrug Shadow happened.

I always loved this interview from 2016. This was Hall at his best after getting clean.

LOL I coulda sworn Shrug Shadow was actually a name Scott Hall was considering prior to doing his Scarface Razor pitch. I swear he said that on his YouShoot.

Interesting story in the Observer this week on how the Razor Ramon name came together. Hall's first pitch to Vince was a military character since his Dad served and he thought of the name Razor. They liked it so they kept it when they moved to the Cuban gimmick but McMahon wanted a second name that started with R to go with it. He went to Tito Santana for a hispanic name that started with R. He said Ramon and that's what they got. So if he said another name, we could have had Razor Raul.

Razor Raul: Mang, all I want to face the 123-Kid in the field of battle, one gentleman warrior to another. Then break his spine.

As far as I know, Perfect came up with Scott doing a Scarface gimmick and somehow, the two of them focused on cocaine, which begat Razor...then Scott wanted the Hispanic name and went to Tito who gave him Ramon. I'm positive that's how Scott always told it.

Was a sad day a few weeks back hearing the news Still not 100% sure what to say except RIP, and in this current time, to give loved ones who in the past had those types of struggles a lot more support.
