According to Wade Keller, Hall was placed on life support after suffering three heart attacks. The heart attacks were caused by a blood clot.

Hall was hospitalized after breaking his hip in a fall, according to Jerry Jarrett.

Kevin Nash, Hall's close friend and former tag team partner, wrote on social media that Hall would be taken off life support once his family was present.

Nash honored Hall in the post.

"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--king sad. I love Scott with all my heart, but now I have to prepare my life without him in the present. ...

"As we prepare for life without him, just remember there goes a great guy you ain't going to see another one like him again. See ya down the road Scott. I couldn't love a human being any more than I do you."

Hall was a mainstay in both World Wrestling Entertainment and World Championship Wrestling throughout the 1990s and into the early 2000s, but he got his start in wrestling in 1984.

His first taste of success was in the American Wrestling Association under the names Scott Hall and Big Scott Hall. The AWA World Tag Team Championships were held by Hall and Mr. Perfect.

Hall wrestled under the name Diamond Studd in the 1990s and became a star in the company.

Hall was given the name Razor Ramon by World Wrestling Entertainment, which was a Cuban American living in Miami. Over the years, Hall said he drew inspiration fromScarface characters.

Hall was known for his cool demeanor as well as his gold chains and toothpick, the latter of which he threw at opponents before matches.

Hall was one of the biggest stars in the mid 1990s, holding the Intercontinental Championship on four occasions. He beat Shawn Michaels for the IC title in one of the first high-profile ladder matches in pro wrestling history.

Hall had a close relationship with several wrestlers, including Nash, Michaels, Triple H and Sean Waltman. They became known as The Kliq, despite the fact that it was never acknowledged on screen.

Hall and Nash changed the business in a number of ways, as they transitioned from World Wrestling Entertainment to World Championship Wrestling.

At a house show in New York City, Hall, Nash, Michaels, and Triple H embraced in the middle of the ring. Fans had rarely seen wrestlers break kayfabe in the form of intermingling between heels and faces, so theCurtain Call was significant.

On the May 27, 1996, edition of Nitro, Hall made his way to the ring through the crowd and created the illusion that he was invading WCW from WWE.

Hall famously said, "You know who I am, but you don't know why I'm here."

The New World Order was formed by Hall and Nash, who became known as The Outsiders, when they were in WCW.

Hall held the World Tag Team Championships seven times, the United States Championship twice and the Television Championship once.

He was one of the best pro wrestlers to never win a world title in a major promotion.

Hall made his return to the company in 2002 as a member of the nWO with Nash and Hogan.

The return was short-lived, but Hall did have a match against Steve Austin.

Hall held the World Tag Team Championships with Nash and Eric Young.

Hall's career was derailed by substance misuse after he left World Wrestling Entertainment.

Hall became one of the great comeback stories in wrestling when he got sober and improved his health with the help of Diamond Dallas Page.

That led to Hall getting back in the company and earning a place in the Hall of Fame. He became one of the few people to be in the WWE Hall of Fame more than once, as he was part of the nWo in 2020.

Hall will go down as one of the most recognizable, popular and celebrated stars in the history of professional wrestling and one of the key players behind the biggest boom in pro wrestling from the mid 1990s to the early 2000s.
