Scott Hall Hired and Suspended!

Scott Hall was recently resigned to WCW this past week. However, his job being awarded back to him and left a few in doubt whether he's got his life back on track. Backstage at this week's Nitro tapings, Hall was said to be very negative around fellow superstars and even nearly caught in a fight with main event star Bill Goldberg. Hall went on to comment negatively on Goldberg and WCW on a taped interview aired over several internet sites, which has led to a 3 month suspension.
