WWE Hall of Famer Scott Hall appeared on episode 60 of Sam Roberts Wrestling Podcast and during the interview, Hall revealed that WWE executives told Triple H, who is one of Hall’s best friends, not to contact Hall when he was going through his substance issues. Here is what Hall had to say:
“When [Triple H] contacted me about the [WWE] Hall of Fame [induction], he called me and said, ‘hey, how are you doing? I wanted to reach out to you for years,’ he said, ‘but all the experts were saying ‘no. No, let him focus on just him getting himself together, not worrying about wrestling or being somewhere or doing this. Let him focus on getting well.’ So he said, ‘man, I wanted to reach out to you for so long,’ because one time, he did call and apparently, he said, ‘oh, I just talked to Scott’ and they went, ‘oh, don’t do that!’, so then I didn’t hear from him for a long time.”
