Volunteers basketball team. He remained on the
team from 1977 to 1980, during which time the
team made it to the NCAA Sweet 16.[16] Following a physical altercation with head coach Don

World Championship Wrestling (1990–1993)

Master Blasters (1990–1991)

Nash debuted in World Championship Wrestling (WCW) as the orange-mohawked "Steel", one
half of the tag team known as the Master Blasters.[6] He was initially partnered with Master
Blaster Iron, with whom he made his debut at the Clash of the Champions XII on September 5,
1990, defeating Brad Armstrong and Tim Horner. At the following Worldwide taping on
September 7, the Masters Blasters began a feud with Tim Horner and Mike Rotunda. They beat
Horner and Rotunda on several house shows. On September 22, Nash's partner Master Blaster
Iron was replaced by "Blade".[6]

The reconstituted Master Blasters continued their undefeated streak in October. Meanwhile,
Steel had his first singles match on September 28 by defeating Tom Zenk.[20] At Halloween
Havoc on October 27, 1990, the Blasters upended the Southern Boys and began to move up the
WCW tag team ratings. Their winning streak ended on November 22, when Tom Zenk and
Brian Pillman handed them their first defeat with Pillman pinning Blade. They rebounded to go
on another undefeated streak by defeating the Southern Boys as well as Alan Iron Eagle and
Tim Horner, and earning a NWA United States Tag Team Championship title shot against then
champions the Steiner Brothers, but were defeated in two occasions.[20] They were squashed on
television in 52 seconds by the Steiners in a match that aired on Worldwide on February 2,
1991. Following this loss, their momentum dissipated as they lost to the Southern Boys and
Ricky Morton and Tommy Rich, and they disbanded at the end of the month.

Nash was then rebranded as the Master Blaster in February 1991, who was pinned by Junkyard
Dog on February 27.[5] He also lost to Brian Pillman in house show matches, while appearing in
tag team matches with Stan Hansen and Arn Anderson. His final match in this guise was against
Pillman at a house show on May 12.

Oz (1991–1992)
A week later, Nash reappeared under his new gimmick, having been repackaged as the silver-
haired Oz, a character based on the Wizard of Oz from the 1900 children's book The Wonderful
Wizard of Oz.[21] Oz, managed by The Great Wizard,[21] was pushed strongly for about a month,
he squashed several wrestlers before losing to Ron Simmons at The Great American Bash on
July 14. In reality, all plans for Oz were immediately scrapped when Nash refused to sign a
$300/night guarantee as WCW was cutting costs. A decision was made to retain Nash until a
new gimmick could be developed. On October 27, he lost to Bill Kazmaier at Halloween Havoc.
Nash wrestled as Oz throughout the remainder of 1991 and went on a lengthy losing streak,
suffering defeats by Kazmaier, Rick Steiner, Dustin Rhodes, and Arachnaman.

He later used the gimmick for New Japan Pro Wrestling as the Great Oz in May 1992.[22]

Vinnie Vegas (1992–1993)

On January 21, 1992, at Clash of the Champions XVIII, he was repackaged as Vinnie Vegas, a
wisecracking pseudo-mobster based on Steve Martin's character in the 1990 film My Blue
Heaven.[23] Vegas was quickly recruited into "A Half-Ton of Holy Hell", a stable of large
wrestlers created by Harley Race which included WCW World Champion Lex Luger, Big Van

3 von 32 20.06.2025, 20:43

Kevin Nash - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kevin_Nash

Vader and Mr. Hughes. The stable separated in February 1992 after Luger left, and Vegas joined
the Diamond Mine, a stable led by Diamond Dallas Page that also included the Diamond Studd
and Scotty Flamingo.[8][24] In the summer of 1992, after Studd and Flamingo left the stable
(Studd leaving for the WWF and Flamingo striking out on his own), Page and Vegas began
teaming together as the Vegas Connection.[8] The tag team split in late 1992 after Page was fired
by Bill Watts.

Nash spent the first half of 1993 teaming with Big Sky. In June, he decided to depart for the
World Wrestling Federation (WWF) and had his final WCW match on June 3, teaming with Big
Sky in a losing effort against The Cole Twins, this match would air on Worldwide after his WWF
debut.[25]

World Wrestling Federation (1993–1996)

Two Dudes with Attitudes (1993–1994)

In June 1993, Nash left WCW, signing a contract with
the WWF at the request of Shawn Michaels.[26] He was
given the stage name of "Big Daddy Cool Diesel"
("Diesel" or "Big Daddy Cool" for short), with an alpha-
male gimmick. For the role, he grew long hair, taking on
the appearance and demeanor of a cocky thug from
Detroit, sporting black sunglasses and leather garments.
The name of Diesel, suggested by Shane McMahon, was
a play on the fact that Nash was from Detroit, known
famously as the "Motor City". His initial entrance music
was a series of truck engine and horn noises.

Diesel started out as the bodyguard/best friend of Shawn

Michaels, with the two being known as Two Dudes with
Attitudes. He made his WWF debut at a house show on
June 6, 1993, by assisting Michaels in defeating Marty Diesel in 1994
Jannetty for the WWF Intercontinental Championship.
[8] He first appeared on television the next night on Raw,

June 7, as he was introduced as Michaels's bodyguard. In January 1994, Diesel appeared at the
Royal Rumble, first as one of the many wrestlers who assisted WWF Champion Yokozuna in
defeating The Undertaker in their casket match and then in the Royal Rumble match,
eliminating seven men in under 18 minutes of in-ring time. Diesel won the Intercontinental
Championship from Razor Ramon, following interference from Michaels on the April 30, 1994
episode (taped April 13, 1994) of Superstars.[8][27] The duo of Diesel and Michaels defeated The
Headshrinkers to win the WWF Tag Team Championship on August 28, making Nash a double
champion.[8][28] However, Diesel lost the Intercontinental Championship back to Ramon the
following night at SummerSlam.[8] The alliance between Diesel and Michaels dissolved after
Survivor Series, when Michaels accidentally performed a superkick on Diesel. Diesel then
chased Michaels, and despite failing to catch him, the reaction from the crowd turned him
babyface. However, Nash was no longer a tag team champion, as Michaels' actions resulted in
the team being forced to vacate the titles.

WWF Champion (1994–1995)

On November 26, 1994, Diesel faced Bob Backlund for
the WWF Championship he had won from Bret Hart
three days prior at Survivor Series. In the match at
Madison Square Garden, Diesel defeated Backlund in
the first ten seconds of the bout.[29] Diesel then
promised Hart a match for his title, which they had the
next month at the Royal Rumble. The match ended in a
draw due to interference from several wrestlers,
including Shawn Michaels. Michaels was irate about his
former bodyguard having beaten him to the WWF
Championship and was sufficiently motivated to win the
Royal Rumble match later that evening, earning himself
a title shot at WrestleMania XI.

At WrestleMania XI on April 2, Nash, accompanied to

ringside by actress Pamela Anderson (who was
supposed to valet for Michaels), defeated Michaels to
retain the title. After the match, he left the ring with
both Anderson and Michaels' replacement for her,
Nash (as Diesel) in 1994
Jenny McCarthy. The next night on Monday Night
Raw, Michaels was betrayed by his new bodyguard,
Sycho Sid, prompting Diesel to come to his rescue and thus reunited the tag team. Diesel
successfully defended the WWF Championship against Sycho Sid at the inaugural In Your
House pay-per-view on May 14, and at In Your House 2: The Lumberjacks on July 23. At
SummerSlam, Diesel retained the WWF Championship by defeating King Mabel, who had won
the King of the Ring tournament.

On September 24 at In Your House 3 in Saginaw, Michigan, Diesel and Michaels challenged the
reigning WWF Tag Team Champions Owen Hart and Yokozuna. The match had a winner-take-
all stipulation, as in addition to the tag belts, Diesel's WWF Championship and Michaels'
recently won Intercontinental Championship were also on the line. When Hart did not show up
at the event, he was replaced by Davey Boy Smith. In the course of the match, Hart arrived at
ringside, entered the ring and was pinned by Diesel for the win and the title, making him and
Michaels holders of all three major WWF championships.[28] The reign did not last long,
however, as Hart and Yokozuna had the titles returned to them the next night on Raw due to
Hart not being an official part of the match when he was pinned.

Diesel's WWF Championship reign continued until November 19, when he was defeated by Bret
Hart at Survivor Series.[8] Following the loss, Diesel attacked Hart and began a tweener turn.

Final feuds; departure (1995–1996)

At In Your House 5 in December 1995, Diesel defeated Owen Hart, who had injured Diesel's ally
Shawn Michaels in a match the prior month. In January 1996, Diesel competed in the Royal
Rumble, entering at number 22. Diesel was the last man to be eliminated from the Royal
Rumble, being superkicked over the top rope by the winner, Shawn Michaels. Following the
match, Diesel teased attacking Michaels before instead giving him a high five. Diesel went on to

Kevin Nash - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kevin_Nash

interfere in the main event between The Undertaker and WWF Champion Bret Hart, costing
The Undertaker the title. At In Your House 6 on February 18, Diesel attempted to regain the
WWF Championship from Hart in a steel cage match, losing after The Undertaker attacked him
in retaliation for his actions at the Royal Rumble.[8]

Shortly before WrestleMania XII, Nash's contract status was in a state of flux. At the time, WCW
was offering large amounts of money to the WWF's talent by Eric Bischoff, WCW Executive Vice
President, to jump ship. In fact, Bischoff had succeeded in convincing several high-profile WWF
stars to sign with WCW over the previous two years, including five-time former WWF
Champion Hulk Hogan and his on-again, off-again friend and two-time former WWF Champion
Randy Savage, and was in the process at the time of talking to Nash's friend Scott "Razor
Ramon" Hall about a contract as Hall's too was set to expire. Nash explained on the WWE
Classics on Demand exclusive series Legends of Wrestling that Hall had been the first to sign
with the company and was offered a contract that paid him "above Sting money" (at the time,
Sting was one of the highest paid wrestlers in the company and although Ric Flair, Hulk Hogan,
and Randy Savage had been making more, Sting's contract was used as a measuring stick). Hall
also informed Nash that he had been given "most favored nation" status, which meant that if
someone new was hired for more money, Hall's contract would increase to match that contract.
Bischoff ended up offering Nash a three-year guaranteed contract with a $1.2 million annual
salary. Nash said to Vince McMahon that he did not want to leave the WWF and that if
McMahon was willing to match the offer, he would stay. McMahon said no because, according
to Nash, he would have had to offer matching contracts to other wrestlers and with the
promotion in a bad financial situation, he simply could not afford it. Nash signed his contract
shortly thereafter.

Diesel lost to The Undertaker at WrestleMania XII on March 31, after which he finally turned
heel and went on to feud with Shawn Michaels once again after he turned on him at a Madison
Square Garden live event. In his last televised WWF appearance until 2002, Diesel challenged
Michaels for the WWF Championship (which he had won from Hart at WrestleMania XII) at In
Your House: Good Friends, Better Enemies on April 28. He wrestled Michaels for the title once
again in a steel cage match at a house show on May 19, but was again defeated.[30] After the
match, Diesel, Michaels, Razor Ramon, and Hunter Hearst Helmsley, a group of off-screen
friends known collectively as "The Kliq", hugged one another in the ring and wished each other
farewell.[30] This incident, later referred to as the "Curtain Call" or "MSG Incident", was a
serious breach of character, as it showed heels and babyfaces consorting with one another.[31]
Shortly thereafter, with his obligations to the WWF now completely fulfilled, Nash left for
WCW.[30]

Return to WCW (1996–2001)

New World Order (1996–1999)

After two weeks of Scott Hall returning on WCW programming and taunting announcers,
wrestlers, and the company, Nash also returned alongside his friend on June 10, 1996, after Hall
interrupted Eric Bischoff. The duo were known as The Outsiders, and the storyline originally
pushed them as "invaders" from the WWF (which WCW eventually had to scale back due to
legal concerns from the WWF). At Bash at the Beach, Hall and Nash fought the team of Lex
Luger, Sting, and Randy Savage and promised to add one more man to their entourage. After

Kevin Nash - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kevin_Nash

Luger was taken out of the match, Hulk Hogan came out to
make the save, only to turn on Savage and reveal himself as
Nash and Hall's third man. Immediately after this, they began
cutting promos calling themselves the New World Order (nWo).
During his return, he had dyed his hair blonde. Through late
1996 and into 1997, Nash normally teamed with Hall as the
Outsiders, and they held the WCW World Tag Team
Championship.[8] Nash also began to show his leadership
qualities in the nWo, and became a sort of "second in command"
alongside Hogan. Nash, Hall, and Sean Waltman distinguished
themselves from the rest of the nWo, calling themselves the
"Wolfpac" in 1997.[8]

After a while, however, the nWo began to fight within its ranks,
with Hogan and Nash battling for control. The situation came to
a head on April 20, 1998, during a match between Hogan and
recent nWo inductee (and rival) Randy Savage for Savage's
recently won WCW World Heavyweight Championship. During
Nash, Scott Hall and Sean
the match, Nash interfered on Savage's behalf and jackknifed
Waltman called themselves
Hogan to the mat, signaling the breakup of the nWo into two
"The Wolfpac" and made hand
separate factions (Nash's interference was not enough to prevent gestures the crowd is seen
Hogan from regaining his championship, thanks to Bret Hart's giving Nash here.
interference shortly thereafter). Nash became the leader of nWo
Wolfpac, alongside Savage, Curt Hennig, and Konnan. Hennig,
however, shortly thereafter defected over to Hogan's nWo Hollywood faction. Then, during a
match between Hall, Nash, Sting and The Giant (who had recently rejoined the nWo after being
kicked out two years prior), Hall turned on Nash by hitting him with his tag team title belt and
leaving the ring. The Wolfpac, however, was not down for long as Lex Luger joined Nash's team.
Sting would eventually become a member as well, after being recruited heavily by both sides
towards the middle of 1998. After Sting won Giant's half of the tag team title at the Great
American Bash that June, Nash became Sting's partner.[8] They defended the championship
until July 20, when they were defeated by Hall and The Giant. Nash then set his sights on his
former partner, and the rivalry came to a head at Halloween Havoc on October 25. During the
course of the match, Nash jackknifed Hall twice but, instead of pinning him, left the ring and
lost via countout. In November 1998, Nash and Diamond Dallas Page became a part of a loosely
organised "creative team" which also included Dusty Rhodes and Kevin Sullivan.[32]

The following month at World War 3, Nash entered the 60-man, three ring battle royal that was
a staple of the pay-per-view, with the winner getting a shot at the WCW World Heavyweight
Championship at Starrcade the following month. Nash survived to the end after literally clearing
his ring out and big booting Lex Luger, who had Scott Hall in the Torture Rack, over the top
rope, and earned his shot at the title. At Starrcade, Nash won the WCW World Heavyweight
Championship from Goldberg (who had an officially given 173–0 win–loss record before the
match) after Hall shocked Goldberg with a stun gun.[8][33] In doing so, Nash broke Goldberg's
long running undefeated streak.[8] On January 4, 1999, Nash and Goldberg were set to meet in a
rematch, but the match did not happen because of Goldberg being arrested for stalking Miss
Elizabeth. That night also marked the return of Hulk Hogan after his "retirement" two months
prior. With Goldberg unable to wrestle, Nash challenged Hogan instead. Hogan simply poked

Kevin Nash - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kevin_Nash

Nash in the chest, who proceeded to fall down and willingly allow Hogan to pin him for the title.
[8] The gesture marked the reunion of the feuding nWo factions into one.[8] The return,

however, was short-lived, and by May 1999, the nWo reunion was over due to injuries to Hogan,
Hall, Luger and Steiner.[8] Meanwhile, backstage, Nash became WCW's head booker in
February 1999 and helped write some of the later angles for WCW.

WCW World Heavyweight Champion (1999–2001)

In May 1999, Nash won the WCW World Heavyweight
Championship for the second time by defeating
Diamond Dallas Page at Slamboree.[8][33] He then
appeared on The Tonight Show and put up a $250,000
challenge to Bret Hart for its May 24 program.
However, Bret's brother, Owen, died in a wrestling stunt
just as Bret was flying to Los Angeles; this immediately
canceled their match and the feud. Nash then entered a
feud with the returning Randy Savage, who was later
joined by a returning Sid Vicious at The Great American
Bash in June when he powerbombed Nash during the Nash in the ring with Sting, who he would
match, thus giving Nash a disqualification victory (as later join forces with after the formation of
the signature move of both men, the Jackknife the nWo Wolfpac
Powerbomb, had been ruled an "illegal" move by WCW
leadership due to its high potential for injury). This
rivalry culminated in a tag team match at Bash at the Beach in July 1999 which pitted Nash and
Sting against Savage and Sid. A stipulation was added that whoever got the pin in the match
would become WCW World Heavyweight Champion. Nash was pinned by Savage and lost his
championship, but would get his revenge the next night on Nitro in a title match between
Savage and a returning Hulk Hogan, and in a similar situation to Savage's first title defense
from the previous year, he used a Jackknife Powerbomb on Savage, preserving the victory for
Hogan. The following week, however, Nash attacked Hogan during a match pitting Hogan
against Vicious. Nash, Sid, and Rick Steiner then feuded with Hogan, Sting, and a returning
Goldberg until Road Wild, where Hogan defeated Nash in a "retirement" match.[8]

On October 4, 1999, Nash returned to WCW along with Scott Hall, which was later revealed to
be a new version of the nWo involving Nash, Hall, Bret Hart, and Jeff Jarrett called 'nWo 2000'.
This would not last long either due to the injury of Hart, and Nash spent most of 2000 feuding
with the likes of Terry Funk, Mike Awesome, Scott Steiner, and Booker T.

Nash won the WCW World Heavyweight Championship again from Booker T on the August 28,
2000 episode of Monday Nitro in Las Cruces, New Mexico.[33] He eventually lost it to Booker T
later on at Fall Brawl. He even had a stint as WCW Commissioner,[8] and he served as a coach/
mentor to the Natural Born Thrillers, who would eventually turn on Nash. Nash aligned himself
with Diamond Dallas Page, reuniting the Vegas Connection, but renamed the Insiders. They
feuded with the Perfect Event (Shawn Stasiak and Chuck Palumbo) and won the WCW World
Tag Team Championship at Mayhem on November 26, 2000.[34][35] Shortly after, they were
stripped of the title by Commissioner Mike Sanders in mid-December. Weeks later, they won
the title back at Starrcade.[36][37] In 2001 (WCW's final months), the Insiders continued their
feud with the Natural Born Thrillers. Nash lost another "retirement" match to Scott Steiner at

8 von 32 20.06.2025, 20:43

Kevin Nash - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kevin_Nash

SuperBrawl Revenge,[8] but it would not be long before WCW announced the sale of the
company to the World Wrestling Federation. As he had a guaranteed contract with AOL Time
Warner, Nash elected to wait out the remainder of his contract, which expired on December 31,
2001.

Return to WWF/E (2002–2003)

New World Order reunion (2002)

Following the expiration of his AOL Time Warner contract, Nash, along with Scott Hall and
Hulk Hogan, were rehired by the WWF.[8] Their rehiring was announced several weeks before
their debut, with Vince McMahon claiming to have hired the nWo in order to destroy the WWF
– of which Ric Flair was now a co-owner, which McMahon could not tolerate. Billed as the
original nWo, Nash, Hall, and Hogan returned to the WWF at No Way Out on February 17,
2002. In the course of the evening, the nWo delivered an interview in which they claimed to
have reformed, gave a six pack of beer to Stone Cold Steve Austin (which he refused), and
traded insults with The Rock. They interfered in the main event of the evening, helping Chris
Jericho retain his Undisputed WWF Championship against Austin. At WrestleMania X8 on
March 17, Nash continually interfered in the match between Hall and Austin to the point where
he was forced to return backstage. Later that night, he and Hall turned on Hogan after he had
offered congratulations to The Rock for defeating him. In March, Nash suffered a biceps injury
that put him out of action for several months and almost immediately upon returning, suffered
a quadriceps tear in a tag match on the July 8 episode of Raw.[8] On the July 15 episode of Raw,
the nWo was officially disbanded by Vince McMahon as Eric Bischoff became Raw general
manager.

Feud with Triple H (2003)

After a nine-month injury, Nash returned as a face on the April 7, 2003 episode of Raw, much
to the delight of both Shawn Michaels and Triple H, who were feuding with each other when
Nash returned. As part of the storyline, Nash was given a choice to remain friends with either
Michaels or Triple H. After Nash would not make the decision, Triple H made the decision for
him and turned on him with a low blow. This led to Nash and Triple H feuding with one
another. Nash teamed up with Michaels and Booker T against Triple H, Ric Flair and Chris
Jericho in a six-man tag team match at Backlash on April 27 which ended with Triple H picking
up the win for his team, pinning Nash after hitting him with a sledgehammer. Following
Backlash, Nash was granted a shot at Triple H's World Heavyweight Championship, and the two
squared off at Judgment Day on May 18 with Michaels and Flair in their respective corners.
Triple H would get himself disqualified and kept the title as a result, but this did not stop Nash
from attacking Triple H following the match, putting him through the announcer's table with a
Jackknife Powerbomb. The next month, they fought again in a Hell in a Cell match at Bad Blood
on June 15 with Mick Foley as the special guest referee, but Nash lost the match.[8]

In August, Nash feuded with Chris Jericho and was forced to cut his hair after losing a hair vs.
hair match against Jericho on the August 18 episode of Raw. This was made to cover Nash
having to cut his hair for his role as The Russian for the 2004 Punisher film. His last match in
WWE was at SummerSlam on August 24 in an Elimination Chamber match for the World
Heavyweight Championship against Triple H, Shawn Michaels, Goldberg, Chris Jericho, and

9 von 32 20.06.2025, 20:43

Kevin Nash - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kevin_Nash

Randy Orton.[8] He was the first to be eliminated after Jericho pinned him following Sweet Chin
Music from Michaels. Before leaving, however, he executed a Jackknife Powerbomb on Jericho
and Orton. Nash then stepped away from in-ring action and underwent neck surgery.[8]

Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (2004–2011)

Kings of Wrestling (2004–2005)

Nash debuted in Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA) alongside the returning Scott Hall on
November 7, 2004, at the inaugural monthly TNA pay-per-view, Victory Road, with the duo
helping NWA World Heavyweight Champion Jeff Jarrett retain his title in a ladder match with
Jeff Hardy.[8] In subsequent weeks, the trio identified themselves as the Kings of Wrestling and
began feuding with Hardy and A.J. Styles. At Turning Point on December 5, the Kings of
Wrestling were defeated by Hardy, Styles, and Randy Savage.

Hall left TNA in early 2005, and Nash and Jarrett separated after Nash made clear his desire to
win the NWA World Heavyweight Championship. Nash received a title shot against Jarrett on
February 13, 2005, at Against All Odds, but lost following interference from the debuting
Outlaw.[8] Following the defeat, Nash joined forces with Sean Waltman and began feuding with
the newly formed Planet Jarrett. At Destination X on March 13, Nash lost to The Outlaw in a
First Blood match following interference from Jarrett, who struck Nash with his title belt. The
rivalry between Planet Jarrett and Nash and his allies culminated in a scheduled Lethal
Lockdown match at Lockdown on April 24 pitting Nash, Waltman, and Diamond Dallas Page
against Jarrett, The Outlaw, and "The Alpha Male" Monty Brown. Nash, however, was removed
from the card and replaced with B.G. James after contracting a staph infection, which left him
sidelined for much of 2005.

Nash returned to TNA on October 1 for the first episode of Impact! on Spike TV,[8] attacking
and powerbombing Jarrett. Nash went on to challenge Jarrett to a match for the NWA World
Heavyweight Championship at Bound for Glory on October 23. In the weeks preceding the
event, Nash and Jarrett had several heated confrontations, on one occasion brawling with one
another and with guest referee Tito Ortiz. On October 22, one day before Bound for Glory, Nash
was hospitalized with chest pains. At Bound for Glory, a battle royal was held to determine the
number one contender; Rhino won and then defeated Jarrett for the NWA World Heavyweight
Championship. Nash was later discharged from the hospital, having suffered a mild cardiac
episode. He made a partial return to the ring in December 2005, wrestling several matches on a
tour of South Africa.

Paparazzi Productions (2006–2007)

Nash returned to TNA once more on the April 27, 2006 episode of Impact!, announcing in a
pre-taped segment that he would give a private interview to Alex Shelley one week later. The
interview saw Nash claim to be the most profitable WWF World Heavyweight Champion of all
time and describe the X Division as "basically filler". Nash went on to announce that he
intended to destroy the X Division in order to reassert his position within TNA. He began his
campaign at Sacrifice on May 14, powerbombing Puma and continued his campaign on the May
19 episode of Impact! by attacking Chris Sabin shortly after he had defeated Petey Williams to
win the TNA 2006 World X Cup Tournament for Team USA. Nash continued to attack X

Kevin Nash - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kevin_Nash

Division wrestlers over subsequent weeks, leading to

Sabin challenging him to a match at Slammiversary.
Nash's attacks were also coupled with pre-taped
segments with Shelley (some appearing only on the
internet website YouTube) and his "X Division debut"
on the June 15 episode of Impact!, where Nash wrestled
a comedy match against a midget Shelley dubbed a
"Sabin-type wrestler". Nash defeated Sabin at
Slammiversary in his second televised match in almost
a year, albeit with the assistance of Shelley.
Nash in TNA in 2008

Around this time, Nash and Shelley formed a stable

known as Paparazzi Productions, with Johnny Devine as a cameraman. Nash then decided to go
for the X Division championship. He got penciled into a Number One Contendership match for
the title against Sabin at Hard Justice. He claimed that he had developed an 840° somersault
splash that he would unveil in the match. However, over the weekend, he suffered a mysterious
neck injury, supposedly while practicing it with Tito Ortiz, and named Alex Shelley as his
replacement in the match. From a wheelchair, Nash was helpless as he watched Shelley lose the
match to Sabin. Nash remained out of action due to the injury, but returned prior to Bound for
Glory, and announced The Kevin Nash Open Invitational X Division Gauntlet Battle Royal.
Austin Starr won the match. Nash took an interest in Starr, which seemed to be at the behest of
Shelley. Nash then worked with the X Division stars in a weekly segment known as the
Paparazzi Championship Series (a play on the "Bowl Championship Series"). He also began
continuing these skits along with Sonjay Dutt and Jay Lethal, in a segment called "Paparazzi
Idol". Nash became a manager of sorts for Lethal, helping him adopt a gimmick where he
impersonated "Macho Man" Randy Savage. At Sacrifice, Lethal and Dutt had an altercation.
Nash broke it up, but Sonjay kicked him. Sonjay apologized, and Nash forgave him. Dutt then
became the Guru with Nash humming mantras backstage.

He then began managing The Motor City Machine Guns, but this was short-lived before he next
appeared in the role of Dr. Nash, psychiatrist and adviser to Kurt and Karen Angle. Nash then
engaged in a brief program with TNA Heavyweight Champion Kurt Angle, which eventually
culminated in Nash aiding Angle. Nash warned the Angles about how dangerous Sting can be
based on Nash's experience feuding with Sting in WCW. At Bound for Glory, Nash interfered on
Angle's behalf during his World Title defense against Sting. However, it was for naught, as Sting
captured the title from Angle via Scorpion Death Drop after fending off Nash and Angle's wife,
Karen. The following Thursday on Impact!, Nash and Angle had an altercation because Angle
blamed Nash for him losing the World Title. Angle eventually attacked Nash, who retaliated by
Jackknife Powerbombing Angle in the middle of the ring. The following week, Sting defended
the TNA World Title against Angle in a rematch from Bound for Glory, and Nash had a ringside
seat. After the match went on a bit, Angle and Sting were out of the ring and when Angle pushed
Sting onto Nash, Sting turned around and hit Nash in the face with a right hand shot, leading to
Nash interfering on Angle's behalf, even though earlier he said he was not going to help Angle.
Following the match, which Angle won, Nash offered a hand shake to Angle only to be "flipped
off" by the new champ. An enraged Nash demanded a match with Angle, but TNA
Management's public face, Jim Cornette, instead booked Nash into a tag team match as Angle's
partner against Sting and a partner of his choosing, with the stipulation being that the person
gaining the pinfall or submission would be crowned the new TNA World Heavyweight

Champion. After a red herring that Scott Hall was the mystery partner, it was revealed to be
Booker T.

The Main Event Mafia (2008–2009)

At Final Resolution on January 6, 2008, Nash and his
partner Samoa Joe lost in a title match to TNA World
Tag Team Champions A.J. Styles and Tomko after Nash
abandoned and seemingly betrayed Joe. Yet on the
following Impact!, when Joe stormed into Nash's locker
room looking for a fight, Nash was actually able to
persuade Joe into accepting his Machiavellian
mentorship. Nash lost to Kurt Angle in a one-on-one
match on Impact! with the winner qualifying for the
Nash with The Main Event Mafia Three Ways to Glory match at No Surrender on
September 14. On the September 11 episode of Impact,
prior to No Surrender, he seemingly parted ways with
Joe on good terms. One month later, Nash returned at Bound for Glory IV on October 12 and in
a swerve, struck Joe in the back with Sting's bat, helping Sting win the TNA World Heavyweight
Championship, turning heel once again in the process. On the October 23 episode of Impact!, he
formally joined Sting, Booker T, Scott Steiner, and Kurt Angle to create a villainous stable called
The Main Event Mafia. He explained that he never forgave Joe for his scathing comments
directed at his best friend Scott Hall's no-show almost a year prior, and befriending him was all
part of a long-term plan to screw him out of the title. He then went on to defeat Joe at Turning
Point on November 9. Nash, however, was removed from the card for Genesis on January 11,
2009 due to a staph infection, and was replaced by Cute Kip. Nash returned on the January 29
episode of Impact! when the Main Event Mafia took over the show. On Impact! on April 23, he
began an on-screen relationship with Jenna Morasca, who subsequently began acting as his
valet. At Slammiversary on June 21, he was reunited with Joe and helped Angle win the TNA
World Heavyweight Championship.

At Victory Road on July 19, Nash defeated A.J. Styles for the Legends Championship, his first
title in TNA.[38] However, Nash lost the title on the July 30 episode of Impact! to Mick Foley.
[39][40] Under a month later at Hard Justice on August 16, Nash defeated Foley to reclaim the

Legends Championship.[41][42] At Bound for Glory on October 18, Nash lost the Legends
Championship to Eric Young in a 3-way match, which also included Hernandez.[43]

On the following episode of Impact!, after Angle announced the death of The Main Event Mafia
and turned face, Nash also became a face as he began feuding with Eric Young and the World
Elite.[44] However, the following month at Turning Point on November 15, Nash helped World
Elite members Doug Williams and Brutus Magnus retain their TNA World Tag Team
Championship.[45] On the following episode of Impact! Nash congratulated Young on
outsmarting him at Bound for Glory and aligned himself with the World Elite, while also hinting
at the return of the nWo once Hulk Hogan arrived in TNA, as when a paranoid Mick Foley came
to him for information on who Hogan would be coming with, he facetiously suggested names
such as Syxx-Pac, Scott Steiner, Buff Bagwell, and Scott Hall. Further suspicion was aroused to
Hall's return when Nash said that he was getting "the band" back together, hinting at an nWo
return.[46] At Final Resolution on December 20, Nash took part in the "Feast or Fired" match

12 von 32 20.06.2025, 20:43

Kevin Nash - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kevin_Nash

and won the briefcase containing a shot at the TNA World Tag Team Championship.[47]

The Band (2010–2011)

On the January 4, 2010, special live, three-hour Monday night edition of Impact! Hogan made
his debut in TNA, and Scott Hall and Sean Waltman made their return to the company to greet
him. Nash, Hall and Waltman quickly reformed their alliance, but Hogan kept himself out of the
group, claiming that times have changed.[48] At Genesis on January 17, in their first match back
together Nash and Syxx-Pac, who replaced Scott Hall in the match, were defeated by Beer
Money, Inc.[49] On the February 4 episode of Impact!, Hall and Syxx-Pac turned on Nash.[50] At
Destination X on March 21, Nash and Young faced Hall and Syxx-Pac in a tag team match,
where The Band's TNA futures were on the line. Nash turned on Young and helped the Band
pick up the victory, which finally gave them contracts with the company.[51] On the March 29
episode of Impact!, Nash offered Young a spot in the Band, claiming that what happened in
Destination X was just business and nothing personal. Young refused the offer and in the main
event of the evening, teamed up with Rob Van Dam and Jeff Hardy to defeat the Band in a six-
man tag team steel cage match.[52] Nash gained a measure of revenge on Young by defeating
him in a steel cage match at Lockdown on April 18. Later in the night, Nash replaced Syxx-Pac,
who no-showed the event, and teamed up with Hall in a St. Louis Street Fight, where they were
defeated by Team 3D.[53] On the May 3 episode of Impact!, Eric Young turned on Team 3D and
joined The Band.[54] On May 4, at the tapings of the May 13 episode of Impact!, after TNA
World Tag Team Champion Matt Morgan had been attacked by Samoa Joe, Nash cashed in his
"Feast or Fired" contract, teaming with Hall, and pinned him to win the TNA World Tag Team
Championship.[55] Nash later named Young one third of the champions under the Freebird
Rule.[56][57] At the June 14 tapings of the June 17 episode of Impact!, The Band was stripped of
the Tag Team Championship, due to Scott Hall's legal problems.[58][59] The following day it was
reported that Hall had been released from his contract with TNA.[60] On the June 24 episode of
Impact!, Nash and Young decided to part ways, as Nash intended to go after Hogan, whom he
blamed for what had happened to Hall and Waltman, and did not want Young to get into
trouble for it.[61][62]

After Nash was unable to convince Hogan to re–hire Hall and Waltman and failed to secure a
meeting with Eric Bischoff, he set his sights on renewing his feud with Jeff Jarrett, who claimed
that Nash had tried to hurt TNA by bringing Hall and Waltman in.[63][64][65] On the August 5
episode of Impact!, Sting, who had feuded with Jarrett prior to his 30-day suspension, returned
to TNA and, together with Nash, beat down Jarrett, Bischoff and Hogan.[66] On the August 26
episode of Impact!, Nash defeated Jarrett in a singles match, after an interference from Sting.
[67] The following week Nash helped Sting defeat Jarrett. After the match Samoa Joe aligned

himself with Jarrett and Hogan and drove Nash and Sting away.[68] At No Surrender on
September 5, Jarrett and Joe defeated Nash and Sting in a tag team match, after Jarrett hit
Sting with a baseball bat.[69] On the September 16 episode of Reaction, Nash and Sting were
joined by D'Angelo Dinero,[70] who claimed to have gotten inside information from Bischoff's
secretary Miss Tessmacher, that would suggest that Nash and Sting were right about Hogan and
Bischoff being up to something.[71] At Bound for Glory on October 10, Nash, Sting and Dinero
faced Jeff Jarrett and Samoa Joe in a handicap match, after Hulk Hogan, who was scheduled to
team with Jarrett and Joe, was forced to pull out due to back surgery. At the end of the match
Jarrett abandoned Joe and left him to be pinned by Nash. At the end of the event it was revealed
that Nash and Sting had been right about Hogan and Bischoff all along, as they aligned

Kevin Nash - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kevin_Nash

themselves with Jarrett, Abyss and Jeff Hardy.[72] On October 13, 2010, Nash's contract with
TNA expired and he announced his retirement from professional wrestling.[73][74] His last TNA
appearance was a taped broadcast on October 14, 2010, when Nash and Sting both announced
they were walking away from TNA rather than being a part of Hogan and Bischoff's regime.[75]
In January 2011 Nash signed a new contract with TNA, but was granted a release before
reappearing on television, after being contacted by WWE.[76]

Independent circuit (2011–2018)

Nash along with Hall and Waltman made an
appearance at the 2011 Gathering of the Juggalos. Nash
teamed with Waltman for a win against Road Dogg and
Billy Gunn.

On September 23, 2012, Nash made his debut for All

Japan Pro Wrestling, teaming with Keiji Mutoh in a tag
team match, where they defeated Seiya Sanada and
Taiyō Kea with Nash pinning Sanada with the Jackknife
Nash posing after a match in April 2012
Powerbomb for the win.[77][78] Nash briefly signed with
Global Force Wrestling as a "Legend" to help promote
events and tours, making appearances at two GFW events on August 28 and 29, 2015.[79] On
August 10, 2018, Nash defeated Flex Armstrong for the Big Time Wrestling Heavyweight
Championship.[80] This would become his last match, confirming his retirement on January 5,
2020, to heal his body.[81][82]

Second return to WWE (2011–present)

Feuds with CM Punk and Triple H (2011–2012)

On January 30, 2011, at the Royal Rumble, Nash, billed as Diesel for the first time since 1996,
returned to the promotion, taking part in the Royal Rumble Match. He entered the match at
number 32, but was eliminated by Wade Barrett.[83] It was announced that he had signed a five-
year WWE Legends contract.[84] On April 2, Nash, along with Sean Waltman, was on hand to
celebrate the induction of Shawn Michaels into the WWE Hall of Fame class of 2011. Triple H
inducted Michaels, and after Michaels gave his speech, Nash and Waltman joined the two on
stage to celebrate.[85]

Nash, no longer billed as Diesel, returned at

SummerSlam on August 14, attacking CM Punk after he
became WWE Champion, which allowed Alberto Del
Rio to cash in his Money in the Bank briefcase and win
the title, thus turning heel. The following night on Raw,
Nash claimed Triple H, on-screen chief operating officer
of WWE, had instructed him by text to attack the
winner. Punk verbally berated Nash on the microphone, Nash entering the ring in November 2011
[86] so Nash attacked him the next week. He also

distracted Punk in a match, making him miss out on a

championship match. Nash was signed to an on-screen contract the next week by John

Kevin Nash - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kevin_Nash

Laurinaitis and demanded a match against Punk. After Triple H booked himself in the match
against Punk instead, Nash attacked them both at a contract signing and was fired on screen.[87]
At Night of Champions on September 18, Nash interfered in their match, alongside The Miz and
R-Truth. Triple H then attacked Nash with a sledgehammer before winning the match.[88] Nash
returned at Vengeance on October 23 to help The Miz and R-Truth defeat Punk and Triple H.
After the match, he attacked Triple H with a Jackknife Powerbomb and attacked him again the
following night with his sledgehammer, preventing him from receiving medical attention and
taking him off television. The following Monday, on October 31, Laurinaitis again signed Nash
to a new contract. He continued to appear on Raw SuperShow, attacking Santino Marella with a
Jackknife Powerbomb and cutting promos about how Triple H was more of a boss than a friend.
On the December 5 episode of Raw SuperShow, Nash competed in his first televised WWE
match in eight years, defeating Santino Marella.[89] Nash went on to face Triple H at TLC:
Tables, Ladders and Chairs on December 18 in a ladder match with a sledgehammer hanging
above the ring which he lost by pinfall after a sledgehammer shot to the face, ending the feud in
the process.[90]

Sporadic appearances and WWE Hall of Famer (2012–present)

In late 2012 and early 2013, Nash began appearing on WWE's developmental training show,
NXT. Nash initially appeared as the guest Match Commissioner for the night, a title given to
him at the request of Dusty Rhodes. After announcing this to the crowd, Nash was interrupted
by Heath Slater to whom he promptly delivered his finisher, effectively turning face. Nash later
again appear on the January 20 tapings of NXT to reunite with members of The Kliq, allowing
him to effectively settle all issues with Triple H, embracing him once again. The reunion also
turned into a reunion of D-Generation-X and Nash was awarded the title of being an honorary
member of the stable. Nash then helped DX take down Damien Sandow.[91]

Nash competed in the 2014 Royal Rumble match as the 14th entrant, eliminating Jack Swagger
before being eliminated by Roman Reigns. He inducted his real-life close friend and former tag
team partner, Scott Hall, into the WWE Hall of Fame class of 2014. Nash appeared on the
August 11 episode of Raw to reunite the nWo with Hulk Hogan and Scott Hall as part of Hogan's
birthday celebration. Nash was suspended by WWE on December 24, 2014, following his arrest,
but was quickly reinstated when the charges were dropped.[92]

On the January 19, 2015 episode of Raw, Nash

appeared with X-Pac and Scott Hall to reunite the nWo,
and along with The Acolytes Protection Agency and The
New Age Outlaws, they beat down The Ascension, who
had been insulting legends from past weeks.[93] On
March 23, 2015, it was announced that Nash would be
inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame class of 2015. On
March 28, he was inducted by long-time friend and Kliq Nash (left) at WrestleMania 31 in 2015,
member, Shawn Michaels. On March 29, Nash alongside Hulk Hogan (middle) and Scott
appeared at WrestleMania 31 alongside Hulk Hogan Hall, as the nWo
and Scott Hall, in their attempt to even the odds in favor
of Sting in his match against Triple H, who had D-
Generation X (Billy Gunn, Road Dogg, Shawn Michaels, and X-Pac) in his corner. However,
Sting lost the match after Triple H hit him with a sledgehammer as he was attempting a Stinger

splash.[94]

Nash made a return to WWE for the Raw Reunion show on July 22, 2019.[95] On December 9,
2019, it was announced that Nash would be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame (2020 Class)
for a second time as a member of nWo, together with Hogan, Hall, and Sean Waltman.[11]

Personal life
Nash and his wife Tamara married in 1988, separated in 2000, and later reconciled.[96] Their
son, Tristen, born on June 12, 1996, was a solo musician and poet.[97] On October 20, 2022,
Tristen died from cardiac arrest that had been triggered by a seizure as a result of alcohol
withdrawal syndrome. He was 26 years old.[98][99][100]

On March 2, 2016, Nash announced he will donate his brain to the CTE Center at Boston
University and the Concussion Legacy Foundation after his death.[101][102]

Nash is a supporter of the Democratic Party and considers himself to be a centrist Democrat.
Nash publicly supported the Kamala Harris 2024 presidential campaign.[103] He has been
outspoken about supporting gay wrestlers.[104][105]

Nash is of partial Cherokee descent.[106]

Legal issues
In May 2011, Nash was arrested for battery by assaulting a drunk man in a parking lot of a
restaurant in Florida, while he and his wife Tamara were leaving.[107][108] In June 2011, it was
announced by prosecutors that Nash was clear of all charges against him, stating that he was
only acting in self-defense, as the drunk man was trying to flirt with Nash's wife.[109][110][111]

On December 24, 2014, just after midnight, Nash was arrested for battery against his 18-year-
old son, Tristen. Two hours later, police were called back and Tristen was arrested for battery
against Nash's wife, Tamara.[112][113][108] On January 15, 2015, prosecutors announced that
Nash would not face charges. Nash's lawyer maintains that Nash was only defending his wife the
night he was arrested.[114][115]

Legacy
During his time as WWF Champion, Nash drew poorly and is often labeled as one of the lowest
drawing champions of WWF.[116] He has reasoned that in the mid-1990s nobody drew because
professional wrestling was in a major recession due to the steroid scandal following the United
States v. McMahon legal case.[117][118]

Nash jumping ship to WCW in 1996 along with Scott Hall has often been cited as the main
reason behind Vince McMahon's decision to start offering downside guaranteed contracts to all
of his talent in order to avoid a mass exodus of his talent roster and compete with WCW. The
decision proved to be a boon since it changed the salary structure for the WWF wrestlers and
helped increase the pay scale for the industry.[119] McMahon also acknowledged in 1998 that

16 von 32 20.06.2025, 20:43

Kevin Nash - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kevin_Nash

letting them defect to WCW made him start offering guaranteed contracts.[120]

In his autobiography Controversy Creates Ca$h, former WCW President Eric Bischoff praised
Kevin Nash and Scott Hall for contributing to the key elements of the nWo's feel and attitude,
[121] while others have said that many of the booking ideas that propelled WCW's rise came from

Nash and Hall.[122] Veteran wrestler "Macho Man" Randy Savage credited Nash[123] for
spearheading the nWo Wolfpac faction in 1998 which grew in popularity with the fans and
became the company's hottest selling merchandise.[124]

Other media
In 1991, Nash made his acting debut in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Secret of the
Ooze[125] as the genetically enhanced version of the villain, Shredder, called the Super Shredder.
He also had a very minor role as a jackhammer worker in the 1998 movie Family Plan.

In 1999, Nash created and co-wrote a comic book titled Nash, set in a dystopian future and
featuring himself as the primary character.[126] Image Comics published an ashcan preview
edition and two regular issues.[127]

He was the first choice for the role of Sabretooth in X-Men, but the role ultimately went to his
former tag team partner Tyler Mane.[128] Nash appeared in a fight scene as The Russian in the
2004 film The Punisher.[129] While filming the scene, Nash was accidentally stabbed with a real
knife by actor Thomas Jane.[129]

He made guest appearances in three different TV shows. He appeared on one episode each of
The Love Boat: The Next Wave (episode "Captains Courageous")[125] and Sabrina, the Teenage
Witch (episode "The Crucible")[125] and in two episodes of Nikki as The Big Easy (episodes
"Gimme Shelter" and "Stealing Nikki").[125] In 2009, he appeared on Fox's show Brothers, in
which he came to get his stolen championship belt back. In 2012, he played a male stripper in
Magic Mike and reprised the role in the 2015 sequel Magic Mike XXL. In 2017, he appeared as
Big Hank Cramblin on Detroiters.[130]

In the spring of 2022, Nash launched a weekly podcast called Kliq This.[131]
