10 Observations From WWE's New Scott Hall DVD

10. Starts On A Truly Somber Note

Living On A Razor's Edge opens with Scott Hall standing in the parking lot of a nightclub that haunts his thoughts to this day. In 1983, Hall was charged with second-degree murder upon shooting an aggressor who had been dating the same girl as him. After having a gun pulled on him, Scott fought back, but it was never his intention to kill.

This is quite the surprising way to open such a documentary. Given the more positive aspects of Hall's life over the past 3-5 years, it's poignant that WWE chose to open with the man's most negative moment. There's a reason for it though, that was the root of most of Hall's personal problems.

Tortured by what had happened, Scott still breaks down near the end of the DVD when visiting the scene of the crime. It's a shock tactic that undoubtedly works, but it's not misplaced. It's clear that this had a huge impact on Scott Hall, and therefore deserves a place in his life story.
