I met lex at a bookstore back around 2005. He was standing behind me in the checkout line. He could not have been a nicer guy. Things have been tough for him since but I wish him the best.
His self-awareness regarding his health is refreshing. So many of these guys think they're superhuman and that they can still do it all it's good to see one with that perspective.
@@jumbothompson yup me too yet arn was on team flair n sid wasnt this is when eric b listened to flair finally realised i should hitch my wagon to someone else
Man there's a honesty with these guys that's refreshing. You see a lot of other entertainers respond with the same bullshit "oh I don't regret anything that's made me"
Such a great shoot. Nash was in a good place here mentally. God bless him, he's a good soul. Him and Scott, say what you want, they looked out for the boys and got people paid. Raised the bar for getting guaranteed money. And put people over. People talk about Kliq heat but 90% of that was Shawn. Big Kev is a good dude. 🙏🙌
I'm shocked Shawn is still around. I know he takes really good care of himself but damn. Pills on the regular since the late 80s. Him and Kurt. 65 vicodin a day?! No liver failure or even an issue at all. Both men are crazy healthy!
They're lucky but I think it has too do with dieting for all the crap they took they both had a great diet it seemed i.e. barely any fast food and probably ate a ton of fruit , fish, and eggs. Also never heard of them doing hard drugs like alcohol ( constantly it is one I'm a former alcoholic) needle's, insane amount of coke, etc.
Lex is that .00001% example of where something awful happened too him (by his own hand, too a point, and by freak accident) that changed his life for the better even if he had too sacrifice his physical well being.
This is an old interview but it's nice to see Kevin had (has?) a high opinion of Sid and Lex, two guys who sometimes don't get a lot of respect. I wish Kevin and Piper had gotten along better, though.
@@zerodawn09 No. Lex got into the business in the late 80's (87-88 iirc), Andre died in 93 or 94. But they never wrestled each other. He put The Giant (Paul White) in the rack around 97, years after Andre died.
I was always a huge fan of his as a kid especially as Diesel and later as Nash in WCW. I had his WWF cardboard life size stand up in my bedroom for years. First saw him as Vinny Vegas. My mom and family moved to Florida when I was older and I stayed back in Louisiana. She called me one day and said, "you won't believe who I met. Your favorite wrestler!" I said, Bret Hart? No, it was Nash. They were at a carwash in town. She said she came up to his waist he was so tall. I live here in Florida now close to Nash. Went inside to a Smoothie King and saw a signed Nash photo on the wall. Soon as I saw it, he came rolling up to the drive thru window in his big Bronco!
Lex always protected Miss Elizabeth's legacy. Whether she was the cause, I don't know, but Kevin Nash manages to talk around that whole story. But, who knows?
I mean if you think about it how would a woman with drugs and alcohol be like in that environment? On the level of Sharon stone in casino and Lex wants us to believe Elizabeth was who she played in wwe. No she was probably crazy as Nash hinted but is being protected and I don’t blame lex to protect her legacy

Kev had nothing bad to say about Sid on this one and even spoke about both of them having limitations evenly . love the rf interviews.
His self-awareness regarding his health is refreshing. So many of these guys think they're superhuman and that they can still do it all it's good to see one with that perspective.
I genuinely believe Billy Gunn can probably do everything he could do 20 years ago. But he's about the only one
He's right Sid was always money. All his WWF and WCW runs he was over.
Don't forget his few ECW matches. Sid was Over without trying 😂
yet after the arn incident he was treated like the devil yet it took 2 to tango n sid always drew!!!!!
He was money because he made a very good heel.
@@bassclay100
From what I heard Sid wasn't exactly the one that started it.
@@jumbothompson yup me too yet arn was on team flair n sid wasnt this is when eric b listened to flair finally realised i should hitch my wagon to someone else
Nash saying he regrets a lot of things says a lot about his character.
Man there's a honesty with these guys that's refreshing. You see a lot of other entertainers respond with the same bullshit "oh I don't regret anything that's made me"

He looks a lot happier here than I'm used to seeing him.
Mad respect for big Kev for his honesty, nwo was huge In 98.
Bro I still see people wearing NWO shirts from time to time. They really were 4 life
Mad respect? Think your opinion means anything to him a$$wlpe.
Sid was a great promo because he has half the brain that you do.
I'm shocked Shawn is still around. I know he takes really good care of himself but damn. Pills on the regular since the late 80s.
Him and Kurt. 65 vicodin a day?! No liver failure or even an issue at all. Both men are crazy healthy!
Don't fool yourself. That kinda abuse did damage

I like kevin and his honesty

Kevin makes a great interview!!!
Plus this guy doesn’t age!
@@rojardakar1313 selective memory is real!! He's definitely aged, u must not really paid attention to old Diesel matches in years or just in denial 😂
@@danielwilson9724 The gray hair is a giveaway lol
Back then he was a great interview, now not so much for various reasons.
I always enjoyed anytime sid and nash got togetheri also loved nash and undertaker.......undertaker moved like a fricken cruiserweight tho
Johnny Ace a stooge?! Say it ain't so!!!! Big Kev talking honestly right here.
Outsiders were awesome.
nash was a giant.
Sid was a monster.
luger was a great 2 faced heel who improved over time.
He's spot on with Johnny Ace.
#RIPMissElizabeth
Sid Rules!!!
Lex the flex Luger vs Andre the giant possibly greatest match ever lex put him in the rack I was shocked
You mean bigshow
You mean Paul wight? If he ever tried to rack Andre he’d be a human pancake 🥞.
wasnt andre dead by the time lex got into wrestling?
@@zerodawn09 No. Lex got into the business in the late 80's (87-88 iirc), Andre died in 93 or 94. But they never wrestled each other. He put The Giant (Paul White) in the rack around 97, years after Andre died.
Slammed Yokozuna kinda
Lex luger
Right , Right !
Nice interview
“Anybody get busted for that”? Not if they are in the Clique.

Of course she was crazy. She was a female
Hello
Super Shredder is super smart.
Piss test won’t detect juice
Sid cut good promos ? 🎤. He was weak on promos. Got tongue twisted constantly
why does nash think drug use is soo funny ?? LIZ Died from Drugs RIP otherwise she be Alive today !!
Don't think he does. He literally said in this video he wished he took less pills
Vodka was also involved I believe.
This guy sucked! All he had was 6 moves! Proof the Hall of Fame is a joke if this guys in it!
He was super popular with the fans dude
Man, sit this one out!!!
Go cry me a river
so did Kane, Big Show, and Taker.
In fact, Kevin Nash's 5 moves including the post-slam hair-flip all comes from Kane. Hogan has 3 moves.
Nobody cares about the moveset, it’s all about charisma and personality. Even if it drives the Meltzerverse crazy 😂
What a jerk. No wonder his kid is so effed up.
