[@mmsizzlak]

By far, growing up, razor's edge was the coolest looking finisher... His lengthy frame made it look so much more devastating of a move... It was the first "modern" pro wrestling move I ever saw that had flash and totally unique to anything up to that point... My childhood heroes have already begun to fade as time passes... Breaks my heart for real

The strength a man has to possess to successfully pull off that move is incredible. Scott did it nearly every week, multiple times for the better part of a decade. The man was crazy strong... not too mention crazy awesome. RIP.

You forgot that Sheamus ripped off Hall's finisher and disrespectfully renamed it.

[@ThinkOutsideOfTheIdiotBox]

Met Scott Hall at the HOF inductions in 1994, the night before KOTR in Philadelphia. My dad took me and it was an incredible weekend overall. Tried to get a pic or autograph of Hall when he was still Razor Ramon, keep in mind I was 12 at the time, but he was TRASHED. He had a woman following him around, I believe she was some kind of handler/PR person, and he looks at her, while holding two beers in BOTH hands and says,”Do I Look Wasted To You?” Imagine that question in his Razor Ramon voice. It was hilarious and sad all at the same time. I was 12 and I could still tell he was in a bad place. It’s a shame the drugs and alcohol ruined him. He could’ve been something special if he didn’t have all that baggage. I feel weird saying that because he still had such a huge impact on the business overall.

Flair took the belt because Jim Herd fired him and wouldn't give him his $25,000 deposit back. He was justified in doing so.

[@mightyblack1]

That's a true fact.

[@douglasjarnagan3835]

Sure, he was right to keep the belt in his possession. But taking it onto WWF TV was some low class BS. For all those that are about doing the right thing for the locker room: Ric Flair screwed the WCW locker room to get an angle over in WWF.

Its weird that Razor Ramon only had 1 title shot, and that was in his first year in WWF. His only match was against Bret Hart at the Royal Rumble, when Diesel was the Champion Razor never got a shot against him. It would've been awesome to see Razor vs HBK for the WWF title.

[@henrygvidonas9573]

Yeah, he was so "smart" he participated in a Lloyd's of London insurance fraud scheme, like Rick Rude who thought Eric Bischoff would pay the scammed money back for him out of the WCW budget he got from Ted Turner. They helped to forever mess up a good thing for wrestlers who lost the physical ability to work through disabilities. Road Warrior Animal tried that scam, too. They were so "smart", they thought they could collect on their occupational disability insurance and take bumps (meaning: continue to work in said occupation) IN PUBLIC at the same time. Curt was so "smart" he snorted himself to death with coke on top of steroids and bucketfuls of analgesics. He didn't have a "related heart attack", he snorted himself to death - C.O.D. acute cocaine intoxication at age 44. A regular Albert Einstein he was, our Curt Hennig... Such a "smart guy" - left his wife and four kids to fend for themselves because downhill skiing in Florida was more important.

[@TheSouthernDemocratparty]

WCW didn’t pay back his deposit of $20,000 for the belt so he held on to it.

Scott Hall was the only member from the Kliq that I could tolerate because I found him hilarious. Two luchadors were wrestling in the ring and a drunk Scott Hall enters with a mic. "Hey...Yo..It's survey time!" The luchadors pause for a moment and look at each other confused. Then, they proceed to attack Hall and he beats them up and throws them both out of the ring. Scott Hall then says, "before I was rudely interrupted....It's survey time!" and continues with his NWO speech.

[@pinnacleproductions6275]

Cobedizzle he is known by other workers as one of the best & is highly respected by many in & out of the business however he is still way underrated & not only should’ve but could’ve been a great World Champion who can carry a promotion on his back. It would’ve been so great to see some long programs with Curt chasing & defending the title with guys like Bret, Shawn, Benoit, Flair, Kurt Angle, Guerrero, and yes even Hogan. I would’ve also loved to see Curt carry Goldberg through a match and beat him in the WCW days because you know Curt could make Goldberg look great even going over him. Curt could work with anyone, and make anyone look good, even guys like Goldberg, but don’t get caught up with that, my point is he would’ve been a credible and well deserved world champion and not just to transition it.

[@pinnacleproductions6275]

A couple people have mentioned that Flair was owed money so he took the belt but there was also the fact that Jim Herd drove him nuts, ran the company into the ground, and ran everybody else off. Everybody forgets that every NWA/WCW mainstay not named Sting also left because of this guy. Arn, Tully, Dusty, The Midnight Express, etc. And Sting probably would have bailed had he not gotten hurt.

[@michaell874]

@@millyonair9225 Oh, come on! Hall, Nash, Michaels, Waltman and Triple H were close friends who often traveled together and were close friends. As such, they banded to protect one another from anyone else in the business who dared to do any of them harm. There were other cliques that did the same thing. Pro wrestling reached its highest peak when Hall, Nash and Hogan formed the NWO, and the then WWF countered with the Rock, Austin and the Undertaker. It was great, especially if you had the capabilities to line up two TV sets next to one another to watch both Raw and Nitro at the same time. Back then it was the only thing on television worthwhile to watch. What is there now? Nothing!

[@russellleblanc1539]

I cannot stand Flair and I cannot anyone who dares take one promotions belt to the next promotion BUT! Flair was justified for that. At the time champs had to put down a $15,000 deposit for the belt. So he was told drop the belt, Flair says sure but I need my deposit back. They didn't want to give it back to him so it's simple, if you do not give him his deposit then technically he owns that belt. *EDIT* $25,000 (Not $15,000 like I originally said) That's ALOT of bread to just hand back to the promotion without getting your deposit back. If you ask me, WCW disrespected Flair almost as bad as WWF disrespecting Bret Hart. What's Rick supposed to do? Hand over the title, get fired and be out 25k? Nah, no way.. Rick was 100% justified. Especially since he gave the title back immediately as soon as WCW finally came to their senses and returned his deposit. (Props to Nate Nizzle for the 10k correction).

Not to mention that the BELT (not title) was actually his.

[@russellleblanc1539]

@@MrNWA4Life oh for sure.. you put a deposit down on ANYTHING then you become the prime owner of that prime relistate whether it be an object, a home, car, belt, weapon, whatever.. you put the money down and it's technically your property until you recieve your deposit back and yes you can do whatever you please with that property.

[@MrNWA4Life]

@@russellleblanc1539 Not anything. A local promoter makes you his champion, you didn't put a deposit on it. But the NWA Board demanded anyone getting the NWA World belt put down a $25,000 bond. Either the wrestler or the promoter they worked for.

[@axelfoley20]

I was under the impression that Ric owned that big gold belt. Jim Herd was playing games with him and wouldn't pay him proper for the belt so Flair didn't do anything that hurts the other boys because they ended up making another belt anyway. Crockett had the belt specially made for Flair anyway, so when did it become the property of the WCW? I thought Flair sold it to them afterwards? I'm not sure. Either way, I don't see a problem with Flair taking it to the WWF.

[@TristanDmarco]

Vince's camera guys aren't so slick anymore.

[@FuzzyWuzzy75]

One guy that thought he really got screwed over by Flair taking the belt with him was Barry Windham because that was supposed to be his time, at least in his mind.

I find it hard to believe Hall didn't know the whole story of Flair and Herd. That's like one of the top 2 or 3 most well known stories in wrestling history.

It was Vince's idea for Flair to bring the title it was Vince's and they did screw Flair over.

[@MrNWA4Life]

Belt not title

[@dr.floridamanphd]

How was he screwed over? Vince paid him well and used the angle of having the WCW belt on tv (censored) as a way to give Flair the advantage when he renegotiated his return to WCW. Vince made money off it. Flair made money off it and got what what he wanted from WCW in return. It was a mutually beneficial arrangement

Flair had his reasons for taking his belt to wwf.It wasnt just to be an ass.He was owed money and wasn't paid so he said f it !! I'm taking the belt with me.Eric owned all the wcw guys' during the nwo run including ric for the most part ,so there.Hall has reaped rewards,dont's cry.Btw ,eric owed you a world title shot and you never got it.

[@garywong4403]

More specifically, he was OWED money relating to the down payment he had put up as collateral for him being in possession of said belt. Why should Flair return the belt if he wasn't going to be given his deposit (plus interest) back? Flair did nothing wrong. He's still the man!

[@EM-tg4ft]

@@garywong4403 Was the collateral for the belt? I have seen many wrestlers with belts on their walls in their homes. The only thing I didn't like about wrestling is when people have real injuries and then the add that to the storyline is just stupid.

I might be wrong, but didn't Hall join WWF after Flair won the title and lost it to Savage? I don't see how he could have been in a situation to recommend they don't give Flair the title.

[@markula_4040]

Yes, Hall joined WWF after Flair first lost the title to Savage but before he regained it from him. Remember Flair had a second reign where he lost it to Bret Hart near the end of 1992.

[@robertkelly8559]

Is there an actual video where he discusses his hatred of Flair and you got confused or did you just write whatever for the title?

[@russellleblanc1539]

I honestly cannot stand Flair or his body of in ring work but he isn't wrong on the belt incident. If WCW wants their Belt back they need to pay Flair his 25k deposit back, plain n' simple. That's not blackmail or extortion, that's HIS legit money. They cannot just deprive a man of his deposit money if he has the belt in good condition and ready to return it. Many others said he didn't have to go on national television with the WWF showing it off. No F that, if they won't give him his deposit back then the belt is the his to do whatever he pleases with. They're not loyal enough to honor their agreement to him then why be loyal to them? He's coming to WWF with the TOP Title from the opposition "WCW" ...WHY WOULD HE WASTE THE OPPORTUNITY TO GO ON NATION TV AND CLAIM THAT HE'S THE ONE TRUE CHAMP? That was a smart angle. You won't give him his deposit back, fine.. he'll just show up as the REAL champ making endless confusion. Stupid, Stupid, Stupid, Greedy move on WCW.. Could've been avoided.
