Watch ESPN's E:60 documentary on Scott Hall

Reported by Ernest I Aguilar

ESPN produced a twenty minute documentary on Scott Hall which takes a shocking look at the former WWE and WCW Superstar and his drug and alcohol addictions.

Hall noted that both his parents and grand parents were alcoholic and it was only a matter of time before he followed. He recounted a story that while working at a strip club he point blank shot and killed a man after the two wrestled with their guns and was later charged with 2nd degree murder. The case was eventually dismissed because of insufficient evidence.

X-Pac, Hulk Hogan, his ex wife Dana, Eric Bischoff, his son Cody, Kevin Nash, Stephanie McMahon, Justin Credible and Top Rope Promotions' promoter were all interviewed for this excellent documentary which also revealed how his battle with cocaine, alcohol and pain killers led to his divorce in 1998 and landed him ten times to rehab.

It is quite a sad look at Hall who was very emotional throughout the piece and the effect he left on his family, now training and mentoring his son to follow in his wrestling footsteps, hopefully minus all the alcohol and drug abuse.
