Loss Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 Just because this seems to happen every few months or so. Check this out on WWE.com. Nash is sticking to his talking points like crazy, and is defensive for no apparent reason. http://www.wwe.com/classics/foley-nash-jan-4-1999-26081539 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Wrestling X Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 So is "know it alls" the pc WWE term for "virgins in their parents basement"? Just had this image of Joey Styles frantically moderating Nash's interview for a general audience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregor Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 Is this thread for these specific Kevin Nash delusions, or is it more of a catch-all thread? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricky Jackson Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 I believe any and all Nash bullshit is allowed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loss Posted January 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 Is this thread for these specific Kevin Nash delusions, or is it more of a catch-all thread? I believe any and all Nash bullshit is allowed. Yes. This isn't a one-time thing. It's a regularly occuring thing. So let's use this as an omnibus thread when Nash starts lying about WCW's decline, or anything else for that matter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Wrestling X Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 I'm reminded of this Here's the part that really makes me laugh: "He was red-hot, but I was red-hot too. I was probably the most over I ever was. They were chanting 'Goldberg Sucks' in buildings. They started pumping the Goldberg chant through the PA system. Hogan and the higher-ups were like, 'You gotta beat him.' I read in a book [The Death of WCW, by R.D. Reynolds and Bryan Alvarez] that I masterminded this thing. So let me get this straight: I beat Goldberg, then a week later, I go to the Georgia Dome and lay down for Hogan. What did that do for me? I got nothing out of it."

EricR Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 Didn't the whole year go by before Goldberg's injury? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricky Jackson Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 Yep, but in Kev's mind it was a couple weeks later, maybe a month tops. He told the same bullshit story on the Legends of Wrestling NWO episode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Death From Above Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 WWE CLASSICS: Kevin, do you have any final things to say about the "Fingerpoke of Doom" or WCW in general? NASH: Look, if Napoleon had to do it over, I don't think he would've went to Waterloo. I don't think Custer would've went to Little Big Horn. I don't think Hitler would've went to Russia. But all those decisions were made, and that's why it's called history. What an utterly bizarre thing to say after spending the whole piece arguing that the Fingerpoke of Doom wasn't a big deal.

Dylan Waco Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 I just like that he compares himself to Hitler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Wrestling X Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 I just like that he compares himself to Hitler. Proponents of Hitler call him a revolutionary. Proponents of Nash call him a wrestler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregor Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 He's been saying this about the Goldberg injury for so long that part of me wonders whether it's just a lie or if it really is a delusion and he actually believes that's how it happened. My favorite Nash lie/delusion is that he didn't book himself to beat Goldberg. I wonder if he ever tried to spin the first hour of Nitro with no wrestling as a positive.

Dylan Waco Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 With most wrestlers I assume delusion. With Nash I assume he's lying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loss Posted January 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 I love how he loves to brag about how smart he is and that he can work people so easily, then gets really offended when people don't believe him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyonthewall2983 Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 It's too bad nobody stepped up and represented Goldberg's interests throughout this. Specifically, someone above Nash and company in that particular food chain. It's been said before, but it's ridiculous how under-represented Bill was by WCW. WWF had "Austin 3:16" signs in the crowd the next night, and shirts in production by the end of that summer. It was good intuition by Vince, but it was by no means rocket science. It's either that the Turner people were really too stupid to capitalize on it, or had their hands tied by the guys making the big bucks.

Mr Wrestling X Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 I always get the impression that people didn't think that Goldberg had any long term appeal, not like somebody such as Hulk Hogan or Sting. For that reason, they were lukewarm when it came to marketing him. Of course, it's not hard to imagine that Hogan, Nash and Flair, were all "worried" about their spots in the company when Goldberg started to take off.

Ricky Jackson Posted January 15, 2013 Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 I'll let the YouTube comments do the talking for this one: Awesome, he looks hammered, that means he's gonna say a lot of stupid shit.

rovert Posted January 15, 2013 Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 May have gotten it ass backward but from what I heard he said the best locker room fight he SAW was Orndroff/Vader - a fight that occured when he was in WWF as Champion.

Mr Wrestling X Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 I love how Nash managed to sneak himself into a mini DX reunion at the NXT tapings last week. Talk about pissing over kayfabe, the last time we saw Trips and Nash together, they were bashing each other with sledgehammers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilclown Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 Throwing this into the mix: Nash is by far the most interesting and personable wrestler I've talked to in the course of writing two books on the sport. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
