Yeah, this really depressed me when i watched it earlier; scott hall was one of my favourite's back in the WCW glory days and to look at him now, it's depressing seeing the state he's in. I thought Hogan looked bad after watching the Hogan vs Sting match at BFG but shit, Scott Hall couldn't even stand up without help in some of those clips :(

That was an interesting thing to watch. I hate that Hogan was interviewed for it because each time he talked he just brought it back to him. I do agree with X-Pac as I have prepared/expected Scott's death for a long time. With the way wrestlers pass away so frequently these days it's insane to think that guys like Jake Roberts and Scott Hall are still living.

It's good to see that he's starting to connect with his son though. Hopefully he can feel some sort of redemption before he inevitably passes.

That's really sad. You would think someone like Nash or HBK would help. Waltman wouldn't be much of help since he has drug issues too.

And HBK hasn't?

The problem is that I don't think a single one of them feels there's anything they can do for Scott at this point; he's made it pretty clear that he has no intention to get better and on the few occasions he tries he finds himself backsliding almost immediately.

There comes a point where you have to acknowledge that you're not going to change a situation. You can let your friend know you're there for them and try to be as helpful as you can, but some people take that support as tacit approval of their actions. The only person, at this point, who can help Scott Hall is Scott Hall.

And to be fair, Scott Hall has on many occasions (including April 7th, ironically two days before the horrible appearance you see in the video) thanked Waltman, Michaels and Nash for being there for support. They keep trying to help him, but ultimately, they can't babysit him regardless as they all have their own commitments and families and at the end of the day, Scott Hall has to help himself and stay the course, something he hasn't.
