The passing of WWE Legend and 2 time Hall of Famer Scott Hall has shocked the fans and the wrestling community. The 63-year-old former professional wrestler passed away on March 14, according to ESPN. His shocking demise has vastly affected the wrestling world as tributes and messages poured in, celebrating the life of a fallen veteran and honoring the same.
Together with Kevin Nash & Hulk Hogan, the trio gave birth to the biggest wrestling faction the sport has ever seen, NWO (New World Order). His jump from WWE to WCW back in 1996 served as a catalyst for the infamous Monday night wars that changed the industry forever. He excelled at being a heel (bad guy) and was also famously known for iconic alter-ego ‘The Bad Guy’ Razor Ramon in WWE.
One fan found an interesting way to pay his respects to the fallen legend by pitching the Hall of Famer against his own persona in the latest WWE 2K22.
