WWE News: Scott Hall Relapses Again At Atlanta Airport

WWE legend Scott Hall has suffered through a lot of addiction problems over his life. It looked like he had finally cleaned up his act when he accepted the offer of Diamond Dallas Page and went to clean up and learn DDP Yoga as a replacement for his addictions. It went so well that he patched up his relationship with the WWE and was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame.

A TMZ video was released of Scott Hall inside a T.G.I. Friday’s at the airport in Atlanta on Saturday drinking beer and taking Tequila shots. According to reports, Scott was hitting on the bartender and called her a bi**h. The bartender’s dad was at the bar and got in Hall’s face until the manager arrived and asked Scott to leave the bar.

The video then shows the police showing up and taking the beer out of Scott Hall’s hand. According to TMZ, law enforcement officials said that they were called to the scene and recognized Hall. They shook Scott’s hand and asked him to put down the alcohol and leave. It took a bit, but Scott Hall left without any further incident and was never arrested.

This isn’t the first time that Scott Hall has found himself on the wrong side of the law due to his addictions. In 2008, Hall was arrested for attacking a comedian during a roast. In 2010, Scott was arrested for resisting a police officer while intoxicated. In 2012, Hall was arrested for domestic disturbance and sent to the drunk tank.

Ever since joining up with Diamond Dallas Page and the DDP Yoga system, Scott Hall has been on his best behavior. Scott has said he quit drinking and has been sober for awhile now. However, the video clearly shows Hall drinking alcohol and that would mean he has slipped up in his sobriety, although it is unclear whether it is a first-time slip-up for Scott or an ongoing problem.

This is the second time in less than a week that a talent associated with the WWE has dealt with alcohol problems in an airport. The Inquisitr previously reported that Bo Dallas was arrested two weeks ago for getting drunk in a Dallas airport and causing a problem on an airline where he cursed out the pilot.

While Bo Dallas was arrested, he only sat out a week and returned to WWE Monday Night Raw this week and actually won a match for the first time in a long time. Dallas fought a jobber and it looks like they are rebuilding the Bo Dallas character, ignoring the indiscretions in Dallas.

While Scott Hall is not under contract to the WWE, he has been on better terms with the company lately. Around the time of his WWE Hall of Fame induction, the WWE released a Scott Hall DVD, which enters into great detail about Hall’s battles with addiction, something many close to him hoped he had kicked.

Scott Hall, Kevin Nash, and Sean Waltman all showed up at a baseball game last Friday as special guests for the Bridgeport Bluefish minor league baseball team. This appearance was one night before the Atlanta airport incident. Neither Nash nor Waltman were seen with Hall at the airport.

It is still to be seen what Scott Hall’s representatives or the WWE have to say about this incident at the Atlanta airport. One has to hope that this isn’t indicative of any further problems for the former WWE star because Scott has a lot of people supporting him as he fights his debilitating addictions.

Scott Hall updated his fans via Twitter on Wednesday.
