Kevin Nash Shares Heartbreaking Details On Scott Hall’s Final Days

On March 14, the wrestling world lost Scott Hall. 

Hall (Razor Ramon in WWE) was one of the most popular wrestlers during his time in the sport and was part of some of the biggest moments in wrestling history, including invading WCW and being the first member of the New World Order. 

Kevin Nash, one of Hall’s best friends and his tag team partner in wrestling as The Outsiders, shared details of Hall’s final days on his podcast Kliq This. 

“Scott lived in a duplex in Georgia, over by the Braves Stadium. He was getting GrubHub and a Chinese takeout place that would bring him Vodka. He was making some Kool-Aid, he put the plastic pitcher up the refrigerator and ice went into it, but a couple of pieces of ice popped out and landed on the floor. He went over, and stirred it, I’m sure it was Crystal Light because he ate pretty clean, he went back to get something and one of the pieces of ice caught his heel. He did the ‘whoopsie daisy,’ landed, and broke his other hip. He’s in the middle of his kitchen and in so much pain that he can’t move. He tries to move several times, he can’t, and finally, he passes out. He wakes up and now it’s nighttime. He has no idea. His phone is by his recliner and he’s between that and the Kool-Aid. He ends up passing back out, wakes up, and at this point, he’s so dehydrated. He has the pacemaker in his heart and he’s like, ‘I’m gonna croak if I don’t get some fluids.’ He turned, gutted it, got his back to the cabinet and got the pitcher of Kool-Aid and drank it through the spout, sip by sip. He was able to drag himself and called 911. They came and got him and took him to the hospital,” said Nash. 

Hall was taken to WellStar Kennestone Hospital in Marietta, Georgia, which he said is “two out of five star” hospital.

He continued by saying, “I know Scott didn’t have insurance, but he needed to get the hip fixed. He had other problems and other issues. They did CT scans and he had some kind of perforation in his bowel. I talked to him a couple of times on the phone. I talked to him every day he was in hospital. Dallas [Diamond Dallas Page] was a great friend during this, being there for Scott. When it came time to get Scott out of the hospital, they were going to stay at Dallas’ and recover there. I talked to Dallas on Saturday. I got a call on Sunday morning and it was Paul [Triple H], and he said, ‘Scott had three heart attacks and it didn’t look good.’ I tried to get a flight to Atlanta, couldn’t. Went back to Daytona Beach, couldn’t get a flight out of there. At that point, they said they were going to pull the plug and the doctor said it would be maybe ten minutes that he’d be alive. Before they pulled the plug, all the Kliq guys got on speaker phone, talked to him, cried is basically all we did.”

Nash noted that Scott would stay alive for another seven hours before passing. Nash was the one who announced that Hall would no longer be on life support on the morning of March 14. 

The Kliq (Shawn Michaels, Triple H, Sean Waltman, and Nash) were able to reunite in person at Hall’s funeral.
