In the ’ 80s and ’90s, Scott Hall terrorized the WWF as Razor Ramon, a 6’7” beast who talked like Scarface, made millions, and finished opponents with his signature move, the Razor’s Edge. But as ESPN’s E:60 has discovered, the fast life has really caught up with the now 53-year-old brawler… who’s still wrestling, still rocking the forehead wick and the toothpick, even as his demons drag him down. The story of Hall’s rise and fall is heartbreaking enough. Add in how closely his life parallels that of Randy “The Ram” Robinson, Mickey Rourke’s character in The Wrestler—from sex and drugs to collapses in the ring and pathetic high school gym appearances—and once you click play, you just can’t take your eyes off it.
