WWE Star Scott Hall Taken Off Life Support, Dies In GA Hospital

GEORGIA — Legendary WWE wrestler, Scott Hall, has died. The Maryland native was 63 years old.

Pro wrestling newsletter, PW Torch, was first to report that Hall had recently been placed on life support at Wellstar Kennestone Hospital in Marietta after suffering several heart attacks following hip replacement surgery.

The multiple heart attacks were reportedly due to blood clots Hall suffered after surgery.

Hall's close friend and fellow wrestler, Kevin Nash, confirmed Hall's medical decline Sunday night on Instagram.

"Scott's on life support. Once his family is in place they will discontinue life support," he posted. "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 f---ing sad."

"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,'" he continued.

Following Hall's death Monday, World Championship Wrestling said in a statement that it was saddened by the news and extended its condolences to Hall’s family, friends and fans.

Considered one of WWE's biggest superstars from the 20th century, Hall began his wrestling in 1984. He later joined World Championship Wrestling in 1991 as The Diamond Studd. In 1992, Hall signed with World Wrestling Entertainment and introduced fans all over the world to the character of Razor Ramon.

After retiring from the ring, Hall was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame as Razor Ramon in 2014 and again as a member of the nWo (New World Order) in 2020.
