As noted last week, after claiming to have finally cleaned up his act, Scott Hall showed up to his first WWF event and made a complete fool of himself, to the point he had to be dragged off to his hotel room to keep from causing further problems, totally embarrassing the few who had gone to bat for him to get him hired. There's always been an unwritten code in the locker room that whatever you do on your own time is fine and as long as you're not wrestling, no one cares. As long as you're good and can be trusted when you get in the ring, it's whatever. Hall is by no means the first person to be fucked up backstage at a show, that in and of itself wasn't a huge problem. But after telling everyone he had cleaned up, to have him show up like this on day 1 ruffled a lot of feathers. Eddie Guerrero and Brian Christopher were both fired for things they did when they weren't at work so, ya know. At one point, Hall reportedly said to the Dudleyz, regarding their 3D finisher, "Great move you got there. I can't wait to kick out of it." Just drunken assholery like that. Vince and Jim Ross later sat down with him and gave him his first and last warning that this isn't WCW and this behavior won't be tolerated again. So allegedly, Hall is one more incident away from being shown the door, despite how much that would wreck upcoming plans. But for now, he's still on board. Then again, Hall got multiple "final warnings" in WCW too so, grain of salt and all that. Speaking of, the next day, Vince and JR told Steve Austin that the plan is for him to work with Hall at Wrestlemania, to which Austin called it a waste of time and replied, "He's not gonna last until Wrestlemania and we all know it." Several other wrestlers have already come forward and told management they don't want to work with Hall.
