Cody Hall

Hall was born to Scott Hall and Dana Lee Burgio in 1991 and has a sister, Cassidy. He considers fellow professional wrestlers Kevin Nash and Sean Waltman as uncles due to them being close friends of his father.

Hall was a member of the United States Air Force and served an active duty service commitment with the 460th Security Forces Squadron at Buckley Air Force Base in Colorado. Hall departed to become a professional wrestler.[http://kobato.us/tag/cody-hall-scott-hall Hall Family - Kobayo]{{dead link|date=August 2017 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}

Hall began to train as a professional wrestler in 2010 with his father, as he wanted to follow in his footsteps.
