2. How DDP Saved Him

The next decade of Scott's life was a human rollercoaster of ups and downs.

Stints in TNA and on the independent circuit punctuated a personal life that was rapidly getting away from the man. In 2013, Diamond Dallas Page stepped in to help get his old pal back on the straight and narrow. Some doubted whether or not it'd work, but DDP had faith.

Nobody should ever forget how generous and kind Page was to Scott during a seriously rough period of his life. Of course, "Dally" (as Hall and other mates called him) would also work miracles with Jake Roberts too. His compassion, determination and healthy lifestyle choices extended Hall's life - there's no doubt about that.

The visual of an emotionally fragile (but totally overwhelmed) Scott thanking fans for raising enough money to pay for hip surgery and dental work struck a chord with everyone involved. This represented hope, and it gave the one-time Razor enough strength to carry on.
