Discussing the legacy of Scott Hall: “Scott Hall, talk about a great guy, a great visionary. A lot of pro wrestlers make a lot of money today because Scott Hall had the vision to go from WWE to WCW, which made Vince start paying wrestlers guaranteed money. You know, and so, a lot of wrestlers who make decent, really good money today owe Scott Hall.”
Hall being cool with the BWO: “When it comes to the BWO, he was really cool with it. “All the NWO members were very cool with the BWO and that makes it even more worth it that, you know, 25 years, or almost 30 years later people still talk about the BWO … That is all in part to Scott Hall and his vision of saying, ‘No, I need to go from WWE to WCW,’ and created the Monday Night Wars.”
