Scott Hall Checking Into Detox

Scott Hall took to Twitter today to announce that he was checking himself into a detox facility. As previously reported, Hall made a scene at a Jersey Championship Wrestling show and was kicked out after getting drunk. This led to Hall being dropped by GFW.
Hall posted:

@SCOTTHALLNWO
Happy to report I'm checking in to a detox facility to address my recent difficulty. Thanks to all the supporters out there.

Did Scott Hall Leave GFW Because Of WWE?

As we previously reported, Scott Hall was recently removed from Global Force Wrestling’s roster page. It was believed that this was due to a recent incident in which Hall was publicly intoxicated at an independent show.

However, there is speculation that there may be a different reason. Al Haft, who works at the “I Believe In Wrestling Dojo” with Hall, said: “There was some talk at Jersey Championship Wrestling that Scott Hall was pulling out of Global Force Wrestling due to the size they were becoming and not wanting to upset WWE especially after Hall’s WrestleMania appearance.”

This is obviously not official at all, so just consider it a rumor for now.
Opinionated View- This sounds like the kind of story you put out to try and do damage control. Jarrett's been pretty clear he wants to do a national company. That's why he's talking about TV deals. And it's not like working for a non WWE company means you can't ever go back. Hall's worked for TNA several times and been back with WWE later on.

Scott Hall Removed From Global Force Wrestling’s Roster Page

 Jeff Jarrett’s Global Force Wrestling has removed Scott Hall from their roster page and he is no longer booked for dates with the company. The site notes that a source close to Hall claimed that Hall was given drinks by roadies for one of the bands playing at a festival over the weekend. The original story is available here.
Hall has reportedly flown to have a visit with Diamond Dallas Page, who have been a huge part of Hall’s recovery over the last few years. Page spoke with TMZ and noted that recovery is a process and people shouldn’t give up on Hall. Here is what he had to say…
“Scott is going through a life process. He’s stumbled along the way, but he is doing well over all. I’ve got his back. Even Jake ‘The Snake’ has fallen a few times, but he is now one year sober and doing great.”

Scott Hall Kicked Out of Event Reports Say He was Drunk

TMZ Sports is reporting that WWE Hall of Famer Scott Hall was escorted out of a live wrestling event that was held at the Skate and Surf Music Festival in Asbury Park, New Jersey this past weekend. The report features video of Hall talking on the mic at ringside appearing to be intoxicated and then having words with promoter Ricky Otazu.
Otazu issued the following comments to TMZ about Hall's appearance.
"The event was too well run for us to make a fool of ourselves by allowing him to appear. We will no longer be associated with him until he gets his life in order."

WWE quietly helping Jake Roberts, Scott Hall

WWE has been quietly putting money towards DDP's current deal with Jake "The Snake" Roberts and Scott Hall for rehab purposes according to a report by Dave Meltzer. Both Roberts and Hall were described as having to battle their demons on a daily basis.

Opinionated View- I don't really have a whole lot of faith in the DDP thing. Because I have no faith in Hall or Roberts sooner or latter they will show fuck up and start getting high or drunk or stoned or what ever again.

Note on Razor Ramon Going Into The WWE Hall of Fame

- As speculated by many, the reason that WWE decided to induct "Razor Ramon" into the WWE Hall of Fame is because they have plans to induct Scott Hall in the future along with the nWo. With this being the case, there have been discussions about inducting Kevin Nash as "Diesel" and then inducting him later as Kevin Nash when it comes time for the nWo to go in. 

Opinionated View- Well that's it's own special kind of stupid. I would say more people know the name Scott Hall than Razor Ramon. When they inducted guys like Flair, Hogan, or Piper they included there time in both WWE and WCW why not do that here. And Flair is in there twice as Ric Flair and the horsemen. With Hogan are you going to induct him as Hollywood Hogan?

*DDP. Few athletes have a tougher life after sports thanprofessional wrestlers. The fast lifestyle that accompanies year-round entertaining across the country can take its toll on bodies and minds, resulting in a disproportionate amount of former wrestlers becoming drug dependent and struggling with mental-health issues. In stark contrast to the sport’s high-flying, musclebound theatrics, yoga is now helping rehabilitate some stars of yesteryear. Diamond Dallas Page, famous for his success in the WCW and WWF, created DDP Yoga after finding that yoga helped ease not only his physical ailments but also his depression, and has striven to help others from his era, most notably Scott “Razor Ramon” Hall and Jake “The Snake” Roberts. Correspondent Frank Deford sits down with the wrestlers to discuss how yoga has helped their lives in a way they never thought possible.
Producer: Maggie Burbank.
