After beginning his career in 1984, Hall soon established himself as an influential superstar, through his performances across the country before joining World Championship Wrestling in 1991 as The Diamond Studd. He would later go on to join WWE in 1992 and become famous with the in-ring name of Razor Ramon.
His most memorable rivalries came up against Kevin Nash, Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels with his two Ladder Matches against Michaels at WrestleMania X and SummerSlam 1995 both considered all-time classics by fans and industry insiders alike.
WWE Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan paid tribute to the ‘bad guy’ in a video message that was sent from a Twitter video.
“A short while ago, a good friend of mine passed away, Scott Hall,” Hogan said. “So, in Jesus’ name, I pray, thank god for taking care of my brother. He took care of me when I was down and out. They thought Hulkamania was dead. Scott Hall resurrected me. He put me back on the map. I love him so much; I can’t even explain it to you. He had a bunch of faults, but he was a good guy,” the WWE Hall of Famer said while speaking at Tampa, Florida.
“I just want everyone to know that he’s in our thoughts and prayers tonight. And he just passed. I had a real hard time getting my act together and getting over here. But Bad Times Don’t Last, but Bad Guys do.”
