Scott Hall passed away earlier this week and the WWE Universe has been mourning his loss ever since – a barber paid a crazy tribute to the legend
Scott Hall recently underwent hip surgery. As per reports, he was being treated at the Wellstar Kennestone Hospital in Marietta, Georgia.
Hall’s condition worsened when a blood clot got loose. The two-time Hall of Famer suffered three heart attacks. He was on life support as his health condition deteriorated severely.
Tributes have been flowing in from all corners and one heartwarming tribute came from a barber and his customer in Chicago. The barber trimmed his customer’s hair with such fine precision that he made Scott Hall’s face on the back of the head along with the trademark toothpick. It’s actually an arduous task perfecting a haircut with logos or pictures but the work done by the barber is as good as it gets. The customer rocked the look and the video ended with the barber displaying full swag with a toothpick in tow.
Bret Hart is one of the best wrestlers of all time and The Hitman had many great matches with Scott Hall, aka Razor Ramon.
Hart recently posted on his Instagram handle following the demise of “The Bad Guy”:
“I’m saddened to hear of the passing of Scott Hall. I wasn’t very close with Scott in his later years, but upon reflection, I can flashback to many happy and fun memories of the days when he was my friend,” Hart wrote. “I think Scott carried many heavy crosses long before I ever knew him. He was a good friend to Owen long before he became Razor Ramon. Wrestling life can be so much fun, and at the same time, it can take all you have at the same time.“
I will always remember Scott in the better times with his cool, dry sense of humour while playing gently with my sons. We had many matches and he was a hard worker. I loved my matches with him at Royal Rumble and the first King of the Ring in 1993. I fondly look back on so many terrific matches he had with Owen, Davey Boy, Sean Waltman (123 Kid), and Shawn Michaels.”
In the latter half of his post, Hart mentioned how working 300 days each year took a toll on superstars of his era. According to him, if the superstars could spend more time with their loved ones during those times, many of his friends and brothers may have still been here.
“We’ve lost so many wrestlers from my era, and this is just one more to a list that’s far too long. I won’t blame any one thing, but I do believe that if the days of wrestling 300 days a year had been kinder and more considerate, if we could’ve been home with our loved ones more, many of my old friends and brothers would still be here. I think Scott would smile to know that so many people really loved him and will truly miss him. One more wrestler. A fine machine gone too soon. My thoughts and prayer go out to his family, friends, and loved ones.”
Kevin Nash, who was another big name in that era replied to Hart’s post agreeing to Hart’s opinion.
“We just had this conversation. I agree 100% the meat grinder hasn’t been kind to the crews that ran 300 plus days. The mental and physical pain of those years scar hard and deep but the men that I shared my life with were such a special breed and many life long friends. Thank you for the kind words about Scott. I love you Bret honored to call you my friend.”
