I know this is already in the main WWE forum, but I truly think it should be posted in the Classics board as well. It involves guys that are more appreciated by the older fan base. !Listening to that is heartbreaking. DDP has been helping a lot of people with his yoga, but seeing the big strides Jake has made in his recovery makes me believe there's a chance for Hall. Forget about any wrestling comeback or Hall of Fame induction, this guy needs to piece his life back together. Razor Ramon was one of my favorites and I'm still rooting for him to turn it around even if most people have written him off as a lost cause.

I'm listening to Wrestling Soup now and I heard that Scott Hall is now 18 days sober. That's good to hear. When I heard DDP was trying to help Jake Roberts, I thought it would never work. After seeing that Jake has been 60 days sober, probably more after that call, I think Scott Hall has a chance, I hope he has a chance.

I was really kinda scared when I first watched the video. I really would hate for Scott Hall to take his own life when he has friends like DDP and Jake trying to help him. I met DDP last year, great guy and I'm actually thinking about getting into the DDP yoga program.

I hope Hall can straighten up.. He's always been one of my heroes of the ring... Let's hope Page can help Hall.

I know Hall is really messed up right now, but let's be real Jake wasn't much better and he looks GREAT. Not just physically either, but just hearing him you can tell he's in a much better place.

WWE should make DDP the new rehab facility.

WWE should make DDP the new rehab facility. Haha seriously. I respect Vince for footing the bill to put former wrestlers through rehab, but DDP is a better option for these guys. Being a former wrestler himself probably makes it easier for a guy like Jake to identify with as opposed to some random therapist who doesn't understand the pro wrestling lifestyle. Page has traveled down the same roads and knows the kind of lives these guys were leading.

That is just so heart-wrenching. I really hope he turns it around.

Too many times we hear about the wrestlers who've died. Time to start hearing about the ones who lived.

Scott is in good hands with DDP, if anyone can help Scott, it's DDP.
I really hope Scott can finally get his life together.

After seeing how bad Scott's been doing these past few years compared to how he was in the early 90's, I really do hope that DDP and Jake can help him. Not return to ring change, but a change for the better.

The ending damn near brought me to tears. I can put DDP over enough for the things he has done... the man has finally found his true calling in life.

not trying to be an as@@ole or anything,but I'll believe it when I see it. Hall's been to rehab and such so many times,and has always fallen back off the wagon. I REALLY DO hope this,finally,helps him and gets him to a place where he's healthy,sober,and full of life. but I would not be surprised if he falls off the wagon again after this. one of the big issues I read and heard about is he still has the "Wrestler Lifestyle Mentality" of expecting fame,women,drugs,and alcohol as being the way to live. IF they can change that thought process in his head, to make him want to live life as Scott Hall,father and man,rather than "Scott Hall/Razor Ramon" the ex-superstar wrestler,then there's a chance. if he's still longing for the glory day and the wrestler lifestyle after DDP helps him, I feel it will only be a matter of time before he feels he's "entitled" to have another drink or do another Sona.
not trying to be negative. just trying to keep any expectations realistic.

The same was said for Jake, and though he's not completely out of the woods yet, he's definitely headed in the right direction. Vince's rehab program is nonexistant now (probably due to a VERY low success rate), so I'm hoping he catches wind of what Page has done for Jake and helps foot the bill for taking care of more former Superstars as time goes by.
