WWE Hall-of-Famer Scott Hall passed away at the age of 63 on Monday (March 14) and Westside Gunn — who sometimes goes by his Hall alias in honor of the wrestling legend — paid homage to one of his childhood heroes with a touching tribute.
“SCOTT HALL I LOVE U BROTHER I’m named after this man ‘HALL’ my style the chains, the ‘Ayooo’ everything is this man I didn’t wanna be Jordan I wanted to be SCOTT so thankful he became a friend & knew how much I loved him I’m truly heartbroken right now,” he wrote.
The Griselda rhymer went on to share a photo with Scott Hall putting him in a playful headlock and then Westside Gunn also showed off a tattoo he has honoring the nWo co-founder on his left leg.
“They’ll NEVER be another SCOTT HALL,” the wrestling fanatic added.
