TNA's Scott Hall arrested
Scott Hall, a member of the TNA world tag team champions, was arrested last week on charges of disorderly intoxication and resisting an officer at a bar in Florida, The Orlando Sentinel reported Friday.

Citing sheriff’s records, the story said that the bartender told a deputy that Hall had been “drinking heavily” and “became aggressive,” pushing a customer and arguing with the female bartender. After the bartender lined up a ride home for Hall, he punched the window of the car and pushed two female patrons near the car, according to the report.
When the deputy arrived, he said that Hall was yelling and cursing and appeared intoxicated, with slurred speech and bloodshot eyes. When Hall was told that he was being taken into custody, he refused to comply and the deputy forcibly put him in handcuffs, according to the documentation.
Hall was taken to the Seminole jail and later was issued a trespass warning that forbid him from ever returning to the bar.
On a side note, Hall, 51, listed his occupation on the booking sheet as “professional wrestler.” Under employer, the word “unemployed” was inserted.
Perhaps Hall is prescient.

I was going to make a joke, but this is really just sad. I hope he gets help.

Holy mother of God what is that??

There you go stretching my vocabulary past its limits again. But if "prescient" means either "hungover" or "past his prime," you're right on the money. I would say Hall's actions embarrassed TNA, this promotion will probably embrace the publicity by having Hall turn on The Band and join Beer Money.

someone is in desperate need of an intervention..... kiss the "career" goodbye.

This is shocking in the way that water is wet and the sky is blue, unfortunately. I imagine that TNA will quickly release him, or at least I hope so. And I bet they're glad that they made the decision on this week's show to put emphasis on The Band operating under Freebird Rules.

Fifteen years ago, I was a fan of Razor Ramon's, but I learned long ago to not have any investment in Scott Hall.

First the Nasty Boys, then Bubba the Love Sponge, now Scott Hall.
TNA is really swinging for the fences as they do their impression of the Pittsburgh Steelers when it comes to hiring talent with overt character flaws.
I'm just waiting for RVD to get pulled over for driving while high the night before Slammiversary

Any chance this is just Vince Russo trying to swerve the smart marks?

The Band without Scott Hall isn't much of a band. As with BTLS, it takes some real-life bad behavior to save TNA from some of its horrible booking and roster decisions. Even the densest among them now realizes it was a bad idea to let the Band have the tag team straps.

Told you. Another one of the people the Hukster brought in, another one of his cronies, embarrases TNA again. See the pattern here? It's Hogan. It's Hogan bringing TNA down.

Goes to show that the new TNA regime has brought baggage that is too full of junk to handle. It started with BTLS and now continues with Hall. If you agree give me a hell yeah!

He is unemployed just like all the other wrestlers in WWE and TNA. Neither company treat their wrestlers as employees but contracted workers. It's one of those things that Jesse Ventura has been criticizing Vince McMahon about for years now.

The root 'scien' refers to knowledge. As in "Science" meaning roughly "Knowing".
Prescient = know ahead of time.
Omniscient = know everything.
Poor guy, he needs help.
Posted by: Jeremy Hale | May 23, 2010 2:38 AM
How many chances is he going to get? After all, TNA partly put the tag team belts on him (i.e. "Freebird Rule"?).

Either you drink with the Band, or you're against the Band.

I guess that's what happens when you hang out with Bubba The Love Sponge.

Scott Hall intoxicated.
Hulk Hogan in over his head.
Orioles losses continue to mount.
Barack Obama blames republicans.
Ben Roethlisberger wants to be traded to the Bengals, vows to commit more crimes.

At this point, Hall has been arrested so many times he should just check himself into the jail every night like Otis from the Andy Griffith Show.

Nice mug shot.......why fans insist on kissing this drunkard's a** and why promoters keep paying him to basically get [messed] up is beyond me. A complete waste of talent..........................

i personally don't see how scott hall getting arrested really has anything to do with his job but... ok... I see everybodys comments that he needs help, which may be true, but lets get real for a minute, they need to fire Jeff Hardy before they do anything to Scott Hall... think about it.

So, Scott Hall embarrases himself in and out of the ring. When will TNA believe that this guy is nothing but TROUBLE for the company and his-self.
Posted by: Michael | May 23, 2010 6:14 PM
Scott Hall became just what he always wanted to be.
A drunk.
There is no hope for this guy, he is proud of being a alcoholic. He is happy for who and what he is. Just wait until that liver goes, it will be all over then.
Posted by: David | May 24, 2010 10:06 AM
Din may be right about why Hall would write "unemployed." Assuming that he is an independent contractor with TNA, and not an employee, then legally speaking, I can think of at least two reasons to specify that he is unemployed on a booking sheet—either for health insurance purposes, or to establish indigency to obtain a court-appointed (free) attorney.
Posted by: Stephen | May 24, 2010 12:42 PM
Why won't they all just leave Scott Hall alone?! What was the bartender doing harassing him in the first place?
It seems as though there is a society-wide conspiracy to take down TNA. Not watching Impact! isn't enough to satsify them, they feel that all their top stars like Scott Hall, Jeff Hardy, Todd Clem, etc. should be publicly humiliated now.
And what's with Post Cereal having Hulk Hogan job to a prehistoric baby in their commercials? He should sue!

Hey Yo... My name is Scott Hall, and I am a complete loser.
Posted by: Adam | May 24, 2010 2:55 PM
I was a big fan of Razor Ramon,now Hall completely ruined his carrer,hope they prevent him from wrestling anymore,now he's completely joke.
maybe they put Hall in the WWE,maybe the Straight Edge Society save him for good

So, let me guess. Mr. Hall will head off to rehab for what? The 900th time? I really hope he gets some help. He's a legend in his own right, was a bit of an innovator for his day. Here's hoping that this leads to some positivity in his life and he is able to pick up the shambles again.

YO! Get him another beer! X-PAC! Where are you Sean?
Big Kev! Stop drinking my Miller Lite!
Bubba! Oh never mind.... he got fired.

Well stephen, you are an idiot. you obviously know jack s**t. So I will break it down for everyone.. Razor Ramon started smokin rock bout time he became Scott Hall.In the last 12 yrs. he reporydly has beaten his wife, smoked rock, arrested for fleeing and eluding while DWI,harrasses the locals on a regular basis, and is obviously a raging alchoholic!! Now this, alchoholism is just one of his uncurable problems. Don't just blame it on the Henny!! Now evryone has abandonded him and I heard he goes by " blazer alone" !!!

drop the loser and never bring him. Back. TNA, WCW, and WWE have offered help and more chances than his old butt deserved. He should not be back in Pro Wrestling ever again.

Scott Hall is a waste. Many Years ago Razor Ramon was an excitement to watch. However, it seems to me that he developed some incredibly bad habbits over the years and why is he still wrestling? I mean common hes 51!....51!!! FIFTY ONE! The last thing I would like to see wrestle is Scott Hall and Ric Flair get them outa there ASAP.

I loved Razor Ramon ..... He was Amazing in the ring ! We all have problems & age .... hope things are improving for you Scott. NancI from Pa

Scott Hall is ridiculous. He is probably the greatest wrestler too never win a world title. It's too bad he can't keep his hand out of the cookie jar if you know what I mean.
