The most interesting thing about this podcast is learning how Kevin Nash never did anything wrong in his career, and whenever someone else does something wrong which he also did, how it still wasn't wrong when he did it. In his mid-60s with some major personal tragedies in the last few years, maybe that insecurity he tried to fill up with money his entire life might have been better served by some honest introspection.
They know what Nash was saying and the difference between Nash open hand smack Samoa Joe and Piper while CM Punk striked Jack Perry and Nick Jackson (allegedly) wit a closed fist, Nash is making a point that they were plenty of altercations backstage in the 80/90's but the boys would avoid punching you in the face out of respect and because the rest of the lockeroom would shun you (like the did The Mounty Bros)@@squiddwizzard8850
I never cared for Scott Hall or Kevin Nash after they left WWF... however, I admire their friendship and loyalty to one another. Most men never get that.
Nope in wrestling you don’t have friends you have acquaintances because of how it goes as many wrestlers have said Those two are friends without a doubt and Scott was headed first to WCW wanting Nash to go with him because he could get him a good deal No wrestler would ever do that,it’s all about yourself and being selfish That’s awesome of Scott for sure
Asking Kevin Nash about backstage altercations involving him compared to other wrestlers is the equivalent of asking Rick James about grinding his feet on Eddie Murphy’s couch
@@PhillipCummingsUSAyeah... but he wouldn't have just started grinding his feet in eddie Murphys couch... ..... conversely, he does remember grinding his feet in eddie Murphys couch
Kevin Nash - hitting other wrestlers is bullshit, no place for it at all Kevin Nash- paint brushes Roddy piper and then twice to Samoa Joe, also standing 6’10 and massive build then swings a bat at a couple other wrestlers directly over their heads…. Well I didn’t punch them so it’s not the same… he got alittle more sense than that
The Horseman spoof was exactly what was agreed upon in the script. Thet simply did what they were supposed to do. What Joe did was personal and off script. Plus a lot of what Nash was upset about wasn't something said about him, he was sticking up for his best friend who was going through serious life issues. As someone myself who got in more shit when I was younger for sticking up for friends than I did with anything that was directed at me, I understand the sentiment.
Nash with the greatest mental gymnastics of all time. Brazenly explaining how smacking someone in the face without direct provocation, and then smacking them again without them responding at all is somehow better than a skirmish where both sides are engaging in a fight. This dude is hilarious.
I'd like to hear an admission from Nash that he held guys careers back. He's not alone in that Hogan, Shawn Michaels, Stone Cold a bit and especially John Cena held guys back either because of a personal dislike or they felt threatened. That seems to be typical behavior for guys that are at the top of the card and want to remain there either outta ego or money or both. I like Nash and think he is one of the more honest and open guys in wrestling.
Hogan, austin & cena can get a slight pass because at least they were drawing huge money, though I'm struggling on who austin held back....shawn was a great wrestler but a poor champion. Not naming triple h who is the mkst agregious is interesting. Not a draw in comparison nor the worker shawn was
@jonjohnson1978. Austin refused to work with Marc Mero after he saw Sable powebomb him. Although Mero really shot himself in the foot there. Triple H not jobbing to Booker T was egregious, but on the back hallf of his career he started to put guys over. Seth Rollins was elevated after beating Triple H. If I remember right, Shawn got the belt off Diesel in a time where the economy (94-96ish?) was in shambles. No one had any money to buy wrestling tickets, so I don't think it would have mattered who you had as champion. When he came back I think he was one of those guys that didn't need the belt like Undertaker to be over and a face of the company.
Kevin a slap is much more embarrassing and emasculating than being punched. I understand if you punch someone they may die. But still a slap is like telling someone they are a bitch
Exactly! That was my 1st thought too, it's way more dissrespectful than a punch because a punch suggests somewhat of a first attack move in order to prevent a fight while a slap is like saying I can play around with you anyway I want.
Barely related, but that reminds me of _Barbarian's_ praise of _The Rocker's_ work. Since they were good at double teaming, double drop-kicking, tripping from behind, etc. Being mindful of their advantages and disadvantages.. So he could sell their offense, and it didn't detract from his monster image.
Got to disagree with Big Kev here, it sounds like he has an excuse for all his own attacks on coworkers yet can’t imagine Punk could have his own reasons for doing what he did
It's not so much about the reasons or justification for the incidents as it is about how the incidents are handled i.e. the golden rule was that if you end up in a fight you don't do something that would stop the other guy from being able to work. I've also heard this over the years from multiple wrestlers of that time, so it isn't something that can really be disagreed with - it was the way it was.
@@maxxdahl6062Kev is saying the difference is a punch to the face is not supposed to happen, it had nothing to do with the headlock, if no punch had been thrown and it ended with just the headlock there would be no issue
You can say you don't punch your coworker and I get that, but whatever code there is in the back doesn't overrule the law. If someone shoves you, you have every right to defend yourself, punch or otherwise. I hope that's not what happened with the Punk altercation, because Punk would have a great case to sue. You can't punish people for exercising their right to self defense.
For the people claiming Nash is protecting himself here, acting like he never did anything wrong: He's a wrestler. For life. That doesn't just go away. Every wrestler, even well after their career, their gains and losses, injuries both physical and mental, introspection, etc., they will ALWAYS put themselves over whenever they can. That is just second nature to them.
@skgb75 HHH accepted his punishment for the Curtain call. He said "I made my bed. Gotta lie in it." He was pissed, but didn't blame Shawn. Took it on the chin and waited 3½ years to get elevated to top guy status.
To be fair he is drawing a distinction between having altercation that disrupts the program vs one that is not going to disrupt the program which is a fair distinction. When you break the flow of the program screws everyone behind you
I'll say something good about Nash, he killed it in the movie The Longest Yard. When the good guys swapped his steroids for hormones and he became very moody with sensitive nipples was absolutely hilarious. He and Bill Romanoski were great football villains!
@@edwells4769so do you not know how movies work? In that story the cons were the good guys and the guards along with the warden were the ones being villains 😂 that’s how the script has it
I don't think Nash saw the fight he did see the aftermath as both Kev and Scott are the ones saying let's get out of here and DDP was thinking if I leave now everyone's gonna think I'm a wimp and they said you stood up to Freakzilla no one thinks that.
Kevin’s memory is literally astounding !!!!! I can pictures myself in every story the way he tells them. I miss Scott so much. My all time favourite wrestler !!!!!
Being an above average height person, who has lived enough decades on this Earth, I can appreciate Kevin's and Scott's positions. When you're physically bigger, people make assumptions and use those against you in ways that other people can't imagine. Scott seemed to be fairly level-headed about things; and he impacted Kevin quite a bit. They were somewhat of a Yin/Yang combination, helping each other grow. Listening to Kevin now, I can understand where he's coming from. In some ways I was in similar situations to what he describes. All I can say to those who say that Kevin acts like he can do no wrong, is that you need to walk a mile in our shoes. Nothing is as simple as that. You take far too much for granted.
KEVIN IS BY FAR THE COOLIST WRESTLER I EVER MET TREATED ME WITH KINDNESS WHEN I GOT PICTURE TOOK WITH HIM IN ST RITAS ON ILLINOIS DOWN 2 EARTH GREAT MAN JUST 2 SWEET
Only kevin nash could describe what most men would believe to be the ultimate disrespect only bested by spitting in someones face but kevin nash convincingly describes it as mutual respect. Essentially a come back to reality. What the hells ur problem roddy?! Get it together. Damnit. He thwarted joes ego as a friend
Chris Jericho in one of his books said during a backstage fight Nash instigated, Nash sat in the corner like a giant praying mantis… and then kept referring to Kevin as “Nash Mantis” afterwards and I haven’t been able to not think of that every time I see Kev. 🤣🤣🤣
There's no story in the world that Nash tells that doesn't make him seem like the toughest, sexiest, wisest person who's ever lived. He's the epitome of all things manly and puts himself over at every opportunity. Gotta love it! Haha
Would like to apologize Kevin for my comments a few weeks back, was going through some things. Anywho, thanks for show , urs and others gives me an escape. Keep pushing
You probably have a better chance of finding bigfoot than having Nash read your comments. It's not an insult, it's just a fact. Unless he knows you, he won't bother.
When I watched the infamous backstage footage, it did look to me like CM Punk did try to throw what looked like a punch or a maybe an open hand slap at Jack Perry as soon as they got pulled apart, but it did not connect. In fact, Punk’s punch or slap looked like it was closer to connecting with Samoa Joe’s face instead as he was pulling Jack out of Punk’s grasp. 😅😂
Where I'm from a smack much worse much degrading much belittling than a punch, a punch says you're dealing on man time, a smack is saying you nothing 💯💯💯
I love Nash , but man there’s some serious double standards going on here. C’mon man. First Instance punk was in his dressing room the “elite” cone busting in looking for trouble. They found it. Second .. jungle boy gets in his face he front face locked him. So what? If Harley race did the sane thing , Nash would be telling the story like it was the greatest thing that ever happened.
Quad Cities native here. I heard Moline and and went “huhhhh?!!!” I’m always surprised by the amount of bigger celebs who are aware of the QC 😂 met a record/talent dude in Nashville a couple years back who knew all 6 of the cities off the top of their head! (No there’s not four and yes whoever you ask will give you different answers as to what those cities are)
Yeah I bet it would have been a different story somewhere else. Jericho did that because he knew other wrestlers would step in and break it up before goldberg killed him.
Odd, I thought I just watched a new interview with Joe where he was told to go out there and say some stuff to stir up shit. He didn't do it on his own, he was told to do it.
How many of you criticizing Nash worked in the ring or in the business around the 90’s or early 2000’s? I worked 98 - 2005 in indies. Did some wcw and wwf house shows as security and ring crew. Everything he said makes sense and his “excuses” aren’t excuses. There are clear differences between all examples that you won’t understand unless you worked in a locker room at any capacity.
Me too because the one thing I do not like about the wrestling community both on the wrestler side and the fans side is that there are certain wrestlers that it’s OK to hate and bring up bad things they’ve done but then you’ve got gatekeepers like Dave Melzer kind of pick and choose what stories they want. You’re never going to hear Dave say anything that would make Kevin look good. He’s not going to want to tell stories about how Brett Hart was being a Primadonna, and only thinking of himself. It’s like after 30 years of shoot interviews it does feel like Brett is kind of full of himself, and has no problem with looking out for him and family members that were in the company but if the same thing was done to him or one of his family members Then he’s going to bitch about it. I’ve heard the story about the undertaker, jumping up and yelling at bread because Brett had this idea that no one in the company should be able to do their finish to him in a match . If Nash or HBK said that it would be held over their head forever.
I love listening to Kevin speak. Great stories and he seems like a straight up cool dude. You’re good with him, a friend to him, seems like you got a loyal friend for life. However, I gotta respectfully say that Kevin Nash was a fantastic part of the main event but if he had to carry a company on his own as the guy, not sure it works out as well. I’d actually say Razor/Hall was a more valuable piece to any roster. Nash is a great teammate, good tag team and great personality. But no way he Carrie’s anything as *the guy* HBK was *the guy*, Hogan *the guy* Diesel was awesome as HBKs muscle. Perfect for Nash and god knows he’s cleaned up as far as money goes. Brains as well.
If a person in a normal job slaps a coworker, even if it’s out in the parking lot, they would be fired immediately and almost certainly facing assault charges.
Oh so you mean he was a kid with an edge over most other kids, doing what kids with an edge are naturally going to do because kids are kids? No way! Look dude, I was bullied and picked on and beat up too. But someday you need to become an adult and let go.
Nash has the gift for explaining away the nonsense to his followers. Factually, he wasn’t there for the Punk backstage issue and knows about as much as the rest of us.
The problem is The Elite kicked Punk’s door down looking for a fight when there supposed to be EVP’s of the company. If Tony Khan would be a boss Punk would still be in AEW. Imagine going to work everyday being badgered by children. Jungle Jack shoulda been fired as well. I mean he wanted to use real glass. You of all people Kevin know that’s a bad idea. Ask Goldberg. I think at some point Punk probably decided he had enough. Those guys didn’t want to do business and mend fences and do right by the company. Now look Punk is the biggest thing in Wrestling again while Jungle Jack is off TV and the Young Bucks gotta take time off cause no one cares if they’re in wrestling anymore. And there buddy Hangman was drinking Swerves blood. See a recurring theme.
The slap vs punch debate here actually varies from man to man. I've seen some men take an open hand slap as a invitation to a fist fight. Others would accept it as a "behave yourself" gesture.
That lack of respect was probably what made Piper lose HIS temper and charge them. Piper, maybe was washed up, was a big draw in the 70s through 80s, way before Hall and Oates rolled in....just sayin' - could have been a tad more respect shown pre-match planning
So don't punch your teammates, pimp slap them instead...got it!! 😂🤣😂🤣 I love Kevin Nash!! 😂🤣

EXACTLY. I don't know what Nash is trying to get at. Simply put, his situations were identical because he still put hands on somebody.
Nash at the grocery store “I went to the butcher and he said he was out of pork chops so I open hand slapped him”
I was a big Diesel fan. When undertaker ripped through the ring in 1995 and pulled diesel under🤯🤯🤯 cage match vs Brett
Kevin really tells these stories well.
As a bjj practitioner, I also carry a gun everywhere. There is always someone more badass than you so you have to be prepared.
BJJ black belt here, same... Concealed carry.
Random question: Anyone know the story with the rings behind the host? Lol
Quad Cities native here. I heard Moline and and went “huhhhh?!!!”
I’m always surprised by the amount of bigger celebs who are aware of the QC 😂 met a record/talent dude in Nashville a couple years back who knew all 6 of the cities off the top of their head! (No there’s not four and yes whoever you ask will give you different answers as to what those cities are)
Never heard of Moline or the 4/6 cities, is it similar to NYC and the Burroughs ?
Kevin Nash is the master of unknown analogies.
What about the Steiner Bros. ?
I lol'd at the mention of Jericho VS Goldberg. 😂
Yeah I bet it would have been a different story somewhere else. Jericho did that because he knew other wrestlers would step in and break it up before goldberg killed him.
I love Kevin Nash's stories. That's all I have to say.
Fiction is always entertaining
Who is Nash talking about when he says he smacked "Joe" backstage. Who is Joe?
Samoa joe tna shoot promo
@@ASCUMBAGWh0re ah ok. I'd stopped watching before then. Invasion did it for me.
@@highnoon7097apperantly he smacked Samoa Joe in Tna for a shoot towards Scott Hall.
When he drops a F bomb in every sentence dude is frustrated 😂
Kevin Nash is a legend. Outsiders/NWO was the pinnacle of pro wrestling.
Kev, planning to retire from the industry, like Roidback, since Punk returned to WWE?
Odd, I thought I just watched a new interview with Joe where he was told to go out there and say some stuff to stir up shit. He didn't do it on his own, he was told to do it.
How many of you criticizing Nash worked in the ring or in the business around the 90’s or early 2000’s? I worked 98 - 2005 in indies. Did some wcw and wwf house shows as security and ring crew. Everything he said makes sense and his “excuses” aren’t excuses. There are clear differences between all examples that you won’t understand unless you worked in a locker room at any capacity.
😂😂😂 Oh look, another nothing happening indy guy who thinks he was in the business.
Now that we know it wasn’t a punch… see? Context is everything.
I would LOVE to see hear / more about the Taker, Bret, Diesel thimg!
Me too because the one thing I do not like about the wrestling community both on the wrestler side and the fans side is that there are certain wrestlers that it’s OK to hate and bring up bad things they’ve done but then you’ve got gatekeepers like Dave Melzer kind of pick and choose what stories they want. You’re never going to hear Dave say anything that would make Kevin look good. He’s not going to want to tell stories about how Brett Hart was being a Primadonna, and only thinking of himself.
It’s like after 30 years of shoot interviews it does feel like Brett is kind of full of himself, and has no problem with looking out for him and family members that were in the company but if the same thing was done to him or one of his family members Then he’s going to bitch about it.
I’ve heard the story about the undertaker, jumping up and yelling at bread because Brett had this idea that no one in the company should be able to do their finish to him in a match . If Nash or HBK said that it would be held over their head forever.
I want to see were Kevin Nash steps to Lesnar, Bobby Lashley or someone tough
Nash!!!💯💪👑
I love listening to Kevin speak. Great stories and he seems like a straight up cool dude. You’re good with him, a friend to him, seems like you got a loyal friend for life. However, I gotta respectfully say that Kevin Nash was a fantastic part of the main event but if he had to carry a company on his own as the guy, not sure it works out as well. I’d actually say Razor/Hall was a more valuable piece to any roster. Nash is a great teammate, good tag team and great personality. But no way he Carrie’s anything as *the guy* HBK was *the guy*, Hogan *the guy* Diesel was awesome as HBKs muscle. Perfect for Nash and god knows he’s cleaned up as far as money goes. Brains as well.
If a person in a normal job slaps a coworker, even if it’s out in the parking lot, they would be fired immediately and almost certainly facing assault charges.
No
Wrestling isn't a normal job.
It's not a normal job though so your points irrelevant to be honest.
I always pictured Nash as the bully kid in school, bigger and stronger as the others and using it to strike fear.
Oh so you mean he was a kid with an edge over most other kids, doing what kids with an edge are naturally going to do because kids are kids? No way!
Look dude, I was bullied and picked on and beat up too. But someday you need to become an adult and let go.
Now what about the Orndorf Vader fight he “saw.”
Why was Scott Hall throwing chairs into an area that you couldn’t see? Jerry WAS right.
Cuz it was a planned spot
I remember the debut of Diesol. Man I’m getting old
Nash has the gift for explaining away the nonsense to his followers. Factually, he wasn’t there for the Punk backstage issue and knows about as much as the rest of us.
What a Legend Kevin is
Wasn't Piper in his 50's at that point?
What's your point?
He was 42 at the time I believe.
A smack to the face is actually worse than getting punched in the face 😂 thats waaaay more humiliating Nash is funny
So when it’s an issue that Nash has, it’s cool to fight. Anyone else, it’s not cool and they need to be punished. Playing some lawyer ball.
He's a locker room lawyer for sure.
The problem is The Elite kicked Punk’s door down looking for a fight when there supposed to be EVP’s of the company. If Tony Khan would be a boss Punk would still be in AEW. Imagine going to work everyday being badgered by children. Jungle Jack shoulda been fired as well. I mean he wanted to use real glass. You of all people Kevin know that’s a bad idea. Ask Goldberg. I think at some point Punk probably decided he had enough. Those guys didn’t want to do business and mend fences and do right by the company. Now look Punk is the biggest thing in Wrestling again while Jungle Jack is off TV and the Young Bucks gotta take time off cause no one cares if they’re in wrestling anymore. And there buddy Hangman was drinking Swerves blood. See a recurring theme.
That's why Tony Khan is a clown and an amateur, and the reason why you don't buy your son a company just so he can run it in to the dirt.
Sting still has the bat Kevin swung right above the Nasty Boys head in the back.
The slap vs punch debate here actually varies from man to man. I've seen some men take an open hand slap as a invitation to a fist fight. Others would accept it as a "behave yourself" gesture.
He only saw 2? What about Brett and Shawn?
Nash....Hope all is good
Nash is telling Piper and Flair how the match is going to go.
That lack of respect was probably what made Piper lose HIS temper and charge them. Piper, maybe was washed up, was a big draw in the 70s through 80s, way before Hall and Oates rolled in....just sayin' - could have been a tad more respect shown pre-match planning
