In a extremely sad turn of events, Scott Hall is scheduled to be taken off life support, according to his best friend, Kevin Nash.
It was first reported by Pro Wrestling Torch that Scott Hall suffered three heart attacks after a blood clot got loose following surgery complications for a hip replacement. Now Kevin Nash, Hall’s brother in arms both in and outside the ring, took to Instagram early Monday morning to confirm that Scott’s life support will be discontinued once his family is in place to say goodbye.
Nash wrote the following words to honor his lifelong friend:
“Scott’s on life support. Once his family is in place they will discontinue life support. I’m going to lose the one person on this planet I’ve spent more of my life with than anyone else. My heart is broken and I’m so very fucking sad. I love Scott with all my heart but now I have to prepare my life without him in the present. I’ve been blessed to have a friend that took me at face value and I him. When we jumped to WCW we didn’t care who liked or hated us. We had each other and with the smooth Barry Bloom we changed wrestling both in content and pay for those……alot that disliked us. We were the “Outsiders ” but we had each other. Scott always felt he wasn’t worthy of the afterlife. Well God please have some gold plated toothpicks for my brother. My life was enriched with his take on life. He wasn’t perfect but as he always said “The last perfect person to walk the planet they nailed to a cross ” As we prepare for life without him just remember there goes a great guy you ain’t going to see another one like him again. See Ya down the road Scott. I couldn’t love a human being any more than I do you.”
Hall, along with Nash, are unprecedented talents in the wrestling business for not only the infamous NWO angle from WCW, but pioneering the trend of guaranteed contracts for talents in the pro wrestling business. Hall is a two-time WWE Hall of Famer and colleagues both from his era and the modern era have taken to social media to show their support and love for The Bad Guy.
We at WrestleZone continue to send our prayers to Hall and his family and friends at this time.
