Scott Hall: WWE Hall of Fame inductee played a key role in professional wrestling's 1990s boom

The passing was announced on March 14 of professional wrestler Scott Hall - perhaps best known to '90s kids in Ireland as archetypal WWF villain Razor Ramon, and later, under his own name, as a part of the New World Order storyline that permanently broke the medium's jealously-guarded fourth wall in Warner Bros-owned WCW.

Hall had been placed on life support following cardiovascular complications from hip replacement surgery, suffering three heart attacks at Wellstar Kennestone Hospital, in Georgia, USA. He had been booked for a number of fan events in the coming weeks, making personal appearances and signing autographs for devoted followers.
