The famous fighter suffered three heart attacks last Saturday after complications derived from a hip operation, being immediately connected to life support. His family, after being able to say goodbye to him, decided to disconnect him from it, dying shortly after.
His contribution to the world of wrestling
Hall rose to fame in the 90s thanks to the character of Razor Ramon that he played in WWF since 1992 and with which he made it cool to be the bad boy of wrestling. There are not a few who point to him as being responsible for the popularity of heels (name for the villains within this sport that also gave the title to a great and recent television series) to shoot up to limits never seen before.
That stage in WWF came to an end in 1996, but not before giving him time to be the first fighter in the company to win the title of intercontinental champion three times, but his legend had only just begun. Hall signed for WCWthe rival company of WWF, and played a decisive role in making it the number 1 company in wrestling for several years.
First in the group The Outsiders and then as one of the founding members of N.W.O.a very popular faction of fighters due to the fact that it was then that hulk hogan went from hero to villain, Hall savored the honeys of success. However, even then he began to have alcohol and drug addiction problems that would mark his life from then on.
After a brief return to the WWF in 2002, the very year the company was renamed WWE, Hall wandered between various wrestling companies until health problems brought him to the brink of death in 2010. His death would have surprised them at the time, but he managed to get ahead, especially since 2013, when, with the help of fellow fighter Diamond Dallas PageHe managed to redirect his life.

Rest in peace, boy.
