Scott Hall and Hulk Hogan changed the wrestling industry forever

Two of the greatest WWE Superstars of all time, Scott Hall and Hulk Hogan, reformed the industry back in the 1990s. In fact, Hall and Hogan, along with Kevin Nash, jumping to WCW from WWE is what started The Monday Night Wars. If that wasn’t historic enough, the trio formed one of the most infamous factions in wrestling history, The New World Order.

The NWO revolutionized the wrestling industry with its new edgy attitude. Hogan, Hall, and Nash became pop culture icons and for a brief moment, WCW beat WWE in the ratings as well. WWE’s counterattack of the Attitude Era was, however, able to win them the wars.

Nevertheless, Scott created history as a part of the NWO. But his independent work as Razor Ramon redefined what it means to be a heel in wrestling.

We extend our thoughts and support to Scott Hall’s family and friends in this time of grief.
