"I'm a Ryback fan, he has the potential to be a huge star" - Scott Hall

Scott Hall a.k.a Razor Ramon

Former WWE star Scott Hall, known by his ring name Razor Ramon talks about his bosses Vince and Eric Bischoff, current WWE superstars and more in his latest interview.

How he would compare Vince McMahon and Eric Bischoff as bosses: “It’s no secret that Vince McMahon comes from a long line of wrestling promoters, his grandfather was a promoter, his father was a promoter and Vince is a promoter, his children are involved in the business, his son in law Triple H is basically running the day-to-day operations of the WWE now and I think he deserves to.

“The way I’ll express it is Vince is like your boss, Eric Bischoff is younger, he’s a different kind of cat and he was really hungry at the time when we met him because WCW had not been successful before. He took a gamble laid down some big money and got us in and it worked, then he was able to have more leverage, make more decisions and grow his empire, it was kind of mismanaged in the long run but at the time it was great.

“To me Eric is like a guy, he’s like a dude, where as Vince is the boss. I’ve had many ‘f**k you’ conversations with Eric, he was just like one of the guys he wasn’t like a boss.”

Current wrestlers that stand out: “As far a current stars go, I like this kid Fandango, I think he is funny, I think he is a great athlete, and I wish him nothing but success. I like the Prime Time Players, particularly Titus O’Neil, the guy is a stud, a great athlete and I expect big things out of him. I’m a Ryback fan, he has the potential to be a huge star, no disrespect to him but at the moment he is a little bit inexperienced, a little bit green is the term we use in the industry.

If he knew ahead of time that Hulk Hogan would be the third person in the nWo: “Talking with Eric Bischoff, the idea was that we wanted Hulk to do it but at that time Hulk had creative control written in his contract, meaning he didn’t have to do anything that he didn’t want too.

“Hulk having been a hero his whole career we weren’t sure he would embrace becoming a villain and in fact the night of the PPV Kevin and I went to the ring against Macho Man Randy Savage, god rest his soul, Lex Luger and Sting, and Hulk was on his way to the arena on a private jet because he had been in California filming a movie.

“We had never met Hulk, we had never spoken to him over the phone or anything, Bischoff couldn’t reach him because he was in the air, so we weren’t sure if Hulk was even going to do it. We’re in the ring, Hulks not at the building yet and the back up plan was that if Hulk doesn’t come then Sting was going to turn, but I was really happy when Hulks music played because I don’t think it would have been anywhere near as successful without Hulk.”
