Scott Hall first began wrestling in NWA and AWA and then WCW before making his debut in WWE in 1990. After a brief appearance for a year, Scott went on to wrestle in New Japan Pro Wrestling and Catch Wrestling Association.
It was in 1992, that he made his epic return to WWE. His second stint proved quite fruitful as he became a four-time Intercontinental champion. He was known peculiarly for his signature character – Razor Ramon – a cool mafioso bully of sorts, inspired by the character Tony Montana in Scarface.
Razor Ramon went on to face Shawn Michaels in a ladder match for the Intercontinental title at WrestleMania X, which he won. This match was awarded the Match of the Year and touted as one of the finest matches in WrestleMania history.
