scott oliver hall (born october 20, 1958 in chuluota, florida) is an american professional wrestler. in the course of his career, which has spanned three decades, hall has wrestled for the american wrestling association, the world wrestling federation, world championship wrestling, extreme championship wrestling and total nonstop action wrestling.
career
jim crockett promotions
scott hall was reportedly "discovered" by barry windham while shopping in a florida grocery store in late 1984. hall's first professional wrestling appearances came in the nwa's jim crockett promotions in 1985. "coyote" scott hall was half of a short-lived tag team called the american starship with "eagle" dan spivey. the duo never made it past early-card status and quickly went their separate ways.
american wrestling association
hall would then join the awa later that year. "big" scott hall, as he was then known, teamed up with curt hennig to win the awa world tag team championship by defeating "gorgeous" jimmy garvin & "mr. electricity" steve regal on january 18, 1986. the "perfect combination," as they were dubbed by a pro wrestling illustrated article, had many hard fought matches against buddy rose & doug somers during this time. they eventually lost the belts to "playboy" rose and "pretty boy" somers by count-out on may 17, 1986 due to interference by colonel debeers.
hall first appeared in wcw in the early 1990s. he briefly wrestled under his real name and would later be known as the diamond studd, where he was managed by diamond dallas page. in 1992, he began teaming with members of paul e. dangerously's dangerous alliance. however, the idea of adding him to the stable fell through. soon after, hall left to the wwf.
world wrestling federation
hall wrestled in the wwf as razor ramon, a cuban-american from miami, who was modeled after tony montana, al pacino's character from the movie scarface even though his appearance and dress sense resemble montana's friend manny ray. although he was pushed as a heel (wrestling villain) in his early wwf days, he gained considerable popularity, and won the wwf intercontinental championship on four occasions, then a record.
hall as razor ramon.hall's ladder match with shawn michaels at wrestlemania x for that title is considered to be a classic and was voted pro wrestling illustrated's match of the year for 1994. it was also the first wwf match to receive a five star rating from dave meltzer of the wrestling observer newsletter. later, as hall was leaving for wcw, he and three other wrestlers (shawn michaels, hunter hearst helmsley and kevin nash) broke character and celebrated in the ring together; their characters at the time were supposed enemies. the four, along with sean waltman, were known as the kliq.
world championship wrestling
hall in wcw starting the nwo storyline with eric bischoff.hall's first appearance on wcw television after leaving the wwf was an unannounced interview where he appeared in street clothes, claiming to be "an outsider." he was then joined in the following weeks by kevin nash, the two claiming they were going to undertake a hostile takeover of wcw. the storyline directly paralleled the real-life competition between the wcw and wwf. at the following pay-per-view, bash at the beach 1996, the outsiders, along with a mystery partner, took on sting, lex luger and "macho man" randy savage. the mystery partner turned out to be hulk hogan, and the three formed the nwo, or new world order. the group stormed wcw, enlisting such stars as syxx (kliq member, sean waltman), the giant, buff bagwell, and others. the group took off in popularity and dominated wcw television for years to come.
when the nwo split into warring factions in 1998, hall was originally part of nash's wolfpac faction. however, during the course of a tag team title match between he and nash and sting and giant (who had just recently rejoined the nwo on the nwo hollywood side after being unceremoniously kicked out of the group in 1997), hall turned on nash by hitting him with his wcw tag team title belt and joined nwo hollywood, in the process costing he and nash the tag team titles. hall would later regain the championships with giant several weeks later, as they defeated sting and nash (whom sting, who had recently joined the wolfpac, had chosen to be his tag team partner after defeating giant in a match for control of the tag team belts) due to outside interference from bret hart, who was in the midst of a rivalry with sting at the time.
one of hall's trademark gimmicks was using a toothpick. after he was done talking trash to his opponents, he would flip the toothpick in his opponent's face, and it mattered little who it was. hulk hogan got the toothpick when he decided that hall needed to be taught a lesson, and the bad guy had one for 'special guest referee' eric bischoff, too.
after the nwo storyline, hall had some stints as a singles wrestler, but was saddled with various drug and criminal convictions. it was speculated by some fans that he was drunk during his match against goldberg on the july 6, 1998 edition of monday nitro. his popularity did not wane, and wcw capitalized on this and continued to mention his name on televised events months after he had been taken off tv. this habit even got to the point where at a ppv event there was a match between kevin nash and goldberg for scott hall's contract.
he managed to win the u.s. title two times in 1999: once from roddy piper and once in a texas tornado ladder match where he defeated sid vicious, bret hart and goldberg. he was stripped of the belt both times due to injuries. he also held the u.s. and tv titles at the same time; however he threw the tv title in the trash on an episode of monday nitro.
hall's real life personal problems made their way into an on-screen gimmick. his problems with drugs and alcohol were ultimately parlayed into a grudge match with his best friend kevin nash, who abandoned the ring and accepted a countout defeat after pummeling hall at halloween havoc 1998.
extreme championship wrestling / new japan pro wrestling
hall wrestled in ecw for a brief period. he wrestled three non-televised matches on november 10 & 11, 2000. then on christmas eve 2000, hall was arrested for dui and ecw let him go. he then wrestled in japan and did some independent shows in the united states before returning to the wwf (wwe). when he was in new japan, he was a part of nwo japan/team 2000/aristrist usually tagging with masahiro chono, scott norton or super j/black scorpian/nwo sting. he was very popular with njpw fans for the duration of his stay. the highlights of his stay in new japan, however, were defeats: a loss to all japan pro wrestling triple crown champion keiji mutoh (the match was booked by new japan, but ajpw referee kyohei wada officiated), and a loss to rookie hiroshi tanahashi, who was trying to break out into the heavyweight division.
world wrestling federation
hall back in the wwf.hall returned to the wwf under his real name and as part of the nwo storyline, but this stint was also short-lived. hogan, nash and himself first appeared at wwf no way out. soon after, hall feuded with "stone cold" steve austin, to whom he lost at wrestlemania x8. in april 2002, hall had a feud with bradshaw, whom he beat at the climax of their feud at wwf backlash. he was released shortly thereafter.
total nonstop action wrestling
hall worked for tna very periodically between 2002 and 2004. he was on tna's debut ppv, and later on teamed up with sean waltman when he made his debut in the promotion. hall disappeared until late 2004, when he made his return alongside the debut of kevin nash. they were both signed and offered contracts as tna prepared for their first monthly ppv, tna victory road 2004. hall joined nash and jeff jarrett in the kings of wrestling, a stable similar to the new world order, but the angle was short-lived. hall bounced around the promotion for a few more months before leaving.
