Funny / Scott Hall

Go To

  • That infamous oversell of the Stunner. Ok, so we know that the move lends itself to some... rather theatrical salesmanship, but Hall looked like he got hit by a Mortal Kombat move.
    • Also, you can see the ref covering his mouth as Austin goes for the cover right afterwards.
  • Razor Ramon shoves a guy into a fountain, then claims that's exactly what the guy wanted.
  • Scott Hall's "big goof" taunt at The Giant, in which he would act like Godzilla and make a hilarious facial expression.
  • Hall tells a story of how he lost his cool: According to Hall, Marty Jannetty and another wrestler (a lower-card guy) had proceeded to use a hotel room under Hall's name, and then trashed the hell out of it. So the next time that they came to the hotel, the real Hall was faced with the bill. Scott put two and two together, and then took his revenge the next night that he and Jannetty were working. He found a sleeping Jannetty in the locker room, and proceeded to beat the shit out of him. He heard a voice, and turned around to see Harley fucking Race had witnessed the whole thing. Figuring he was sure to get fired, Hall started shouting at Race and daring him to come at him. Race's response? "Caaaaaalm down, kid." He quietly came over and re-set Hall's knuckle, and then whispered in the young wrestler's ear: "Next time ya gotta do somethin' like that, do it ''after'' the show. Now he can't work tonight!"
  • At the climax of the first episode of WCW Thunder, The Giant, frustrated that he can't physically retaliate against Hall and Nash without facing legal (in-story) consequences, takes it out on the ring, by tearing it apart - a legitimately awesome sight. Hall, who was in the ring at the time, acts like the entire building is getting hit by a 10.0 earthquake.
