Breaking News: TNA Fires Scott Hall

According to a report on ProWrestling.net, the talk backstage at the TNA iMPACT! tapings yesterday was that Scott Hall had been fired from the promotion. His firing is apparently due to his recent arrest on May 14th.

Hall was arrested last month on charges of disorderly intoxication and resisting an officer following an incident at the Hitching Post Bar in Chuluota, Florida. The Seminole County Sheriff's Office was called in for a disturbance complaint about 1:43 a.m., and the deputy found a bartender standing in the door telling Hall to leave while Hall was yelling and cursing at the bartender and other patrons. Hall had appeared to be intoxicated with slurred speech and bloodshot eyes.

Hall initially refused arrest when he was being placed in custody for disorderly intoxication and continued to refuse until the deputy managed to secure his left wrist with a handcuff and then pulled his right arm behind him.

Hall had been working on a nightly deal for TNA, and was written out of storylines last night.
