WWE legend Scott Hall heading back to treatment, says he has mental illness, not sure whether concussions played a factor, praises Vince McMahon and his family for helping him

WWE legend Scott Hall told the Miami Herald that he is heading back to the Menninger Clinic in Houston for treatment. "This place is really cool because it’s a psychiatric hospital," Hall said. "A lot the people there don’t have drug and alcohol stuff. Mental illness is real, and I got them. I don’t know if it’s the multiple concussions or the lifestyle choices…I’m going to a place where they can help me."

Hall also offered thanks to Vince McMahon and his family. "I have been to about nine rehabs," said Hall. "They were high dollar and some of the best ones around. Vince has picked up the tab the last couple of times. If you ever work or worked for WWE, if you ever need help, he will give it to you. He is really cool. Thank Vince, his wife Linda, Stephanie, Shane, and Paul [Levesque/Triple H]. Thank you for helping me. It’s hard to ask for help. It’s even harder to accept it, when people offer it."

Powell's POV: Hall also spoke about the mentoring role he's taken on for former WWE wrestler Ricky Young, who wrestled as Ricky Ortiz. He plans to accompany Young to an indy show in Florida and will then head back to rehab. Hall previously spent six weeks at the Menninger Clinic, but stated that he's ready to return for the duration of the program this time around.
