WWE superstar and ambassador Titus O’Neil recently sat down with Beckles & Recher to discuss the passing of legend Scott Hall along with providing his Mt. Rushmore of WWE.
Speaking about Scott Hall, Titus said “I got to know him probably around 2014 and even when he was not around, he would text me. He’d see something on TV on Monday Night Raw or SmackDown and he’s like, ‘hey man, that’s good stuff. Keep pushing. Keep pushing. Stay positive, no matter what they give you, you know? Make the best out of it.’ And then last year, obviously I got a chance to spend some time with him, being inducted into the Hall of Fame with nWo, and he was always just, always full of life. You know, the life of the party.”
Titus says despite Hall battling his own inner demons, he was an excellent person that changed the game. He said, “Everybody deals with their own demons, but at the core, he was a really good man and obviously changed the whole landscape of professional wrestling and sports entertainment when he formed the nWo with Kevin Nash and Hulk Hogan and was one of the first professional sports entertainers to have guaranteed contracts. They literally changed the pay scale and the landscape for a lot of people.”
Lastly, Titus told the gang who is Mt. Rushmore would be when it comes to WWE.
