As is always the case with racial unrest and mainstream controversies, a handful of current and former WWE stars and wrestling personalities have been exposed as tone deaf. Zeroing in on looting, supporting the passively-aggressive racist #AllLivesMatter movement and speaking out in support of divisive President Donald Trump have been go-to strategies for those either too partisan to support racial justice at this time, too ignorant to understand the central issue of the George Floyd protests or all of the above.

WWE Hall of Famer Scott Hall—known for being a lightning rod on Twitter—quickly became one of the first pro wrestling personalities to put his foot in his mouth by tweeting #AllLivesMatter. Much like the troubled former Intercontinental champion was compelled to delete his Twitter account following a lewd exchange with ROH’s Moth Martina, Hall once again deleted his Twitter account after rightfully facing backlash for the somewhat bigoted tweet.


Yea he’s not even really Cuban, he’s full redneck white. Still somewhat sad to hear, I remember watching this when he helped a few kids who were sick which really stood out to me. You don’t see many celebrities do this.

Goddamn that's horrible news...hate to hear that. Scott Hall is the symbol for everything that started off good in the 90s...there is nothing that can copy that feeling when he appeared on WCW and then Bash at the Beach 96...it was such a big fukking DEAL...it was as big as it gets in the 90s. Hall was the one that lit that fire and got that energy there..he was that credible and authentic in fans' eyes.
