Tributes paid to WWE star Razor Ramon

Tributes have been paid to WWE star Scott ‘Razor Ramon’ Hall, who’s died aged 63.

World Wrestling Entertainment tweeted to say it was “saddened” to learn of his death, after reports of his ill health emerged at the weekend, reports BBC.

His friend and former wrestling partner Kevin Nash said on Monday Scott’s life support would be “discontinued” once his family was “in place”.

“I have to prepare my life without him in the present,” Kevin wrote on Monday.

“I’ve been blessed to have a friend that took me at face value and I him.”

Scott, 63 emerged in the 1990s alongside the likes of Hulk Hogan and Sean ‘X-Pac’ Waltman.

After falling and breaking a hip in early March, he had hip replacement surgery but suffered complications due to a blood clot, according to pro-wrestling website PW Torch.

Following the news of his death, wrestling stars past and present paid tribute to Scott.

Triple H, a 14-time world champion, wrote that he’d see Scott ‘down the road’.

Mick Foley wrote that Scott had been “a legend inside and outside the ring”.

Shane McMahon wrote that he was “perhaps the greatest to ever perform in the squared circle”.

Before news of Scott’s death broke, Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson tweeted to say: “We need the “bad guy” back in the game” – a reference to Scott’s Hall of Fame speech from 2014.
