Scott Hall first came onto the scene in the WWE as Razor Ramon. It was a take on the famous Al Pacino character Scarface. Dubbed the "Bad Guy" Scott Hall was credited with being one of the people in pro wrestling who made being the bad guy cool. When he and Kevin Nash, then known as Diesel jumped shipped from WWE to WCW it created the wrestling wars of the mid 90's and helped catapult professional wrestling back into mainstream pop culture. Hall, Nash and Hulk Hogan formed the original New World Order, dubbed the NWO. 

Hall never won the main title for both WCW and WWE, despite competing in several main events, including the 1993 Royal Rumble against Bret Hart. He will go down in history as the most influential wrestler to never win the main belt. 

Hall suffered three heart attacks while trying to recover from a recent surgery in the hospital on Saturday night.
