During a recent episode of his Talk Is Jericho podcast, Chris Jericho spoke about his past relationship with WWE Hall Of Famer Scott Hall.
According to Jericho, he and Hall had an interesting relationship, as Hall came off as a guy who down-talked to people and almost in a bullying fashion.
“Those guys are very sarcastic, and almost kind of bullying in a way. I did things my way with my group of guys like Eddie Guerrero, Dean Malenko, Chris Benoit and those kinds of guys,” Jericho said.
He went on to tell a story about how Hall told him no one came to see him so be quick in the ring while the two were in WCW together.
“Scott Hall came up to me and told me that nobody was coming to see me, get in there, do your 5-10 minutes and get out,” Jericho recalled. “No one wants to see you. I remember thinking, wow, what an asshole. Why would you say that? I told Chris Benoit that, and Benoit was already furious with Scott Hall after Hall pissed on Chris Benoit’s cowboy boots by the urinals. He just leaned over while they were both pissing and he leaned to the side and pissed on his boots.”
Jericho went on to describe Hall as someone “whenever he talked to you, you just wanted to slap him in the face,” before telling another story about how Scott Norton threatened Jericho to stand up for himself with Hall or he was going to start bullying him.
“Scott Norton, who is a friend of mine from my time in Japan said to me that if you don’t say something to him next time he bullies you then I am going to say something and I will bully you,” Jericho said. “Either you do something about it or I will. If you do something about it and he wants to cause anything then I go your back.”
Jericho continued, “When Scott made another comment I went up to Hall and said to never f–king talk to me like that again, you understand me? I told him that there was no rib, or no joke, don’t ever f–king talk to me like that again. He would tell me to calm down and that he was just joking, ‘geez Jericho, can’t you take a joke?’ I looked over at Scott Norton and he was just smiling like I did the right thing. That was a Scott Hall for you. He was always like that, which is a shame. He was obviously a great worker and a great performer but no love lost for him even until this day.”
