Scott Hall’s life support has been discontinued.
Scott Hall recently underwent a hip replacement surgery, however a serious complication occurred when a blood clot became loose.
Hall then had three heart attacks, which led to him being put on life support. On Monday morning, Hall’s long-time wrestling partner Kevin Nash stated on Instagram that he would be taken off of life support once his family were in a place to do so.
“Scott’s on life support. Once his family is in place, they will discontinue life support. I’m going to lose the one person on this planet I’ve spent more of my life with than anyone else. My heart is broken, and I’m so very f**king sad. I love Scott with all my heart, but now I have to prepare my life without him in the present,” Kevin Nash stated.
Dave Meltzer then noted on Twitter on Monday afternoon that Hall had been taken off of life support and was still alive as of the tweet being posted. X-Pac confirmed the report.
Scott Hall was taken off live support four hours ago. He is still alive at this writing. Miracles have happened but this would need to be one of them.

Following the news of Hall’s condition, support for the legend flooded in from around the wrestling world, with names such as Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson and X-Pac sending their thoughts and best wishes to Hall, his family and his friends.
Throughout his career, Hall was involved in numerous memorable storylines and factions, and is widely regarded as one of, if not greatest Intercontinental Champions of all time.
Hall’s last televised match took place at IMPACT Sacrifice in 2010, in which he and Kevin Nash defended the TNA World Tag Team Championships against Jesse Neal and Shannon Moore.
Hall was inducted into the WWE Hall Of Fame in 2014. During his induction, Hall famously said, ‘Hard work pays off, dreams come true. Bad times don’t last, but bad guys do’. Hall was inducted into the WWE Hall Of Fame for a second time in 2021 as part of the 2020 class as member of the nWo.
Our thoughts are with Hall, his family, and his friends at this time.
