10 Observations From WWE's New Scott Hall DVD

1. More Refreshing Honesty Than Attempted Deflection

That's actually the most notable positive, Scott Hall comes across as completely honest and open about his flaws. That cannot have been an easy thing to do, so it deserves credit. He's on good terms with WWE now, and healthy, so it would likely have been simple to put some cushion on the negatives.

Hall chooses not to do that in Living In A Razor's Edge, and he's not the only one. Fresh off his honest appraisal of himself in his own DVD, Eric Bischoff again takes accountability for his actions on Scott Hall's. He truly seems apologetic when talking about booking Hall to appear as a drunk in WCW during the late-1990's.

Throughout that time, Hall was genuinely going through major problems with drugs and alcohol. Tasteless and crass, management prodding him to portray a drunk on television was a poor idea, but it's one Bischoff admirably takes responsibility for.

Scott Hall doesn't deflect his bad points in this WWE-produced DVD, and it's a much better set because of that.
